Page Faults | The Backend Engineering Show takes you on a whirlwind tour of how and why the kernel raises page faults—covering virtual memory basics, VMAs (text, data, BSS, heap, stack), kernel mode, and six flavors of faults (first access, stack expansion, CoW, swap, file-backed, permission)—all broken down with handy timestamps so you can jump right to what you need.
On top of that, Hussein Nasser sprinkles in a smorgasbord of links to courses and resources—from OS fundamentals, Node.js internals, networking, databases, NGINX, Python and more—to level up your backend engineering game, plus his Medium, YouTube channels, and podcast for endless deep dives.
