The Linux kernel is written in C, so you should have at least a basic understanding of C before diving into kernel work. You don't need expert level C knowledge, since you can always pick some things up underway, but it certainly helps to know the language and to have written some userspace C programs already.
It will also help to be a Linux user. If you have never used Linux before, it's probably a good idea to download a distro and get comfortable with it before you start doing kernel work.
Lastly, knowing git is not actually required, but can really help you (since you can dig through changelogs and search for information you'll need). At a minimum you should probably be able to clone the git repository to a local directory.
In response to this brief blog entry, @antirez tweeted for some documentation on high-performance techniques for Redis. What I present here are general high-performance computing (HPC) techniques. The examples are oriented to Redis. but they work well for any program designed to be single- or worker-threaded and asynchronous (e.g. uses epoll).
The motivation for using these techniques is to maximize performance of our system and services. By isolating work, controlling memory, and other tuning, you can achieve significant reduction in latency and increase in throughput.
My perspective comes from the microcosm of my own bare-metal (vs VM), on-premises deployment. It might not be suitable for all scenarios, especially cloud deployments, as I have little experience with HPC there. After some discussion, maybe this can be adapted as [redis.io documentation](https://redis.io/do
