In this video, we dive deep into Linux Kernel Threads (kthreads) and learn how to create and manage threads inside the Linux kernel.
🔹 What kernel threads are
🔹 How to create a thread using kthread_run()
🔹 Handling errors using IS_ERR() and PTR_ERR()
🔹 Writing the thread loop correctly
🔹 Using ssleep() inside the kernel
🔹 How to properly stop a thread with kthread_stop()
🔹 Understanding how each thread maintains its own stack and execution context

We also build and load a kernel module, monitor output using dmesg, and observe how multiple threads run independently — even when using the same thread function.

This is an essential topic for:
Linux Device Driver developers
Embedded Linux engineers
Kernel programming beginners
Anyone preparing for Linux kernel interviews
