"Understanding the Linux Kernel, Third Edition" Book description This new edition covers Version 2.6 of the Linux kernel, which has seen significant changes to nearly every kernel subsystem, particularly in the areas of memory management and block devices. Understanding the Linux Kernel provides a guided tour of the code that forms the core of all Linux operating systems. Beyond the functioning of the code, the book explains the theoretical underpinnings for why Linux, and many other operating systems, do things the way they do. http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/understandlk/ > > -----邮件原件----- > 发件人: Jesper Juhl [mailto:jesper.juhl@xxxxxxxxx] > 发送时间: 2006年9月14日 22:01 > 收件人: Leon.Jiang > 抄送: kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxx > 主题: Re: reading 2.4 kernel is a good beginning? > > On 14/09/06, Leon.Jiang <guanlanjiang@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi all, > > I'm reading the mm code now in linux2.4, I found the codes reads > > difficultly, do you think it is a good beginning that read the 2.4 > > kernel? > > If you are just starting out I see no point in starting to learn stuff > the 2.4 way, focus on latest 2.6 > The mm code is probably one of the most complex areas of the kernel, > probably not the best place to start. > Get a good book or two and start with those (you can find lots of > recommendations in the archives). -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
