Hi Jon,

I have the book Unix Network Programming Vol 1 by Richard Stevens. Is a good book but agian is user space programing. Me too look for more info on kernel socket programming especially on UDP socket.

The way I get myself started on kernel socket programming is by looking at the kernel source. But trust me .. i'm getting headache after that. ;)

Yes agree with you that Linux Kernel Internals is little outdated.

DOn

Hi guys,

I am just wondering. Are there any books on the linux network stack like
"TCP/IP Illustrated Volume 2"? Or even the likes of "The Design and
Implementation of the 4.4BSD" "Linux Kernel Internals" is slightly
outdated.

Cheers,
Jonathan

Unfortunately, there really is little documentation of kernel code going
on, I'm not aware of much documentation activity elsewhere either ;(

If some people are interested in working on kernel documentation,
though, I'd be willing to help them get started and to help them
understand the kernel things in question.

OTOH, I don't really have the time to get started in yet another project
... I'd really be helping from the sidelines.

regards,

Rik
