Running the following command from Chapter 2: Kernel Workspace Setup I get some errors I thought I would report:

$ sudo apt install git fakeroot build-essential tar ncurses-dev tar xz-utils libssl-dev bc stress python3-distutils libelf-dev linux-headers-$(uname -r) bison flex libncurses5-dev util-linux net-tools linux-tools-$(uname -r) exuberant-ctags cscope sysfsutils gnome-system-monitor curl perf-tools-unstable gnuplot rt-tests indent tree pstree smem libnuma-dev numactl hwloc bpfcc-tools sparse flawfinder cppcheck tuna hexdump openjdk-14-jre trace-cmd virt-what

Using Ubuntu 64 bit 18.04.6 release as recommended.

Thanks v much for pointing this out Roldugin! My mistake. Here's what I could find out:

pstree: is in the package named psmisc tuna: it's a Python script; pl refer this site for installation hexdump: is in the package named bsdmainutils openjdk-14-jre: Pl refer this site

HTH.
