Instead of trying to learn the whole thing at once - which may look intimidating - Try to get a high level picture of the basic components/blocks of the kernel and then try zooming into one of them like mem. mgmt, VFS, net etc. 

The source code directory is your document. Try reading the Documentation/ and try reading the code. There are also many lwn articles and books around but I would suggest trying out the source code way first.

Hi ,

 

I am Vikram. Am a newbie to kernel stuff. I learn a lot about kernel development and stuff but don't really know the working design of kernel. I would like to reverse engineer the kernel source code and teach myself the memory diagrams and kernel development. Could somebody please help me (give me the documents)?

 

I don't know much of Linux. But I would love to learn about it and learn about the kernel. Am all at seas to make myself understand the same.

Please send me a suitable document or the source code written in C in form of headers and source files grouped separately (something like that).

 

I am just a student and don't know much of technical stuff you guys speak. But am a lot passionate about Linux and want to learn it and develop it.

 

Regards

Vikram
