I don't mean to be rude, but about two days ago you said that you would not mail this mailing list until you completed the eudyptula challenge, please stick to this policy. As per your question, start by reading and completely understanding the TCP/IP Protocol and Linux sockets, write some user space test applications such as a IM client, and keep writing these applications until you are confident that you can understand the kernel code,then you should do what you said three days ago and read the kernel code and not mail the mailing list for a few months, i say this because people are getting saturated at you and your disregard for the community and the people involved in it. Maybe you were just searching the wrong phrases/keywords, but there is an enormous amount of information regarding TCP/IP and the Linux kernel http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/45160/books-resources-which-explain-tcp-ip-kernel-implementation This stack exchange question seems to be related. 2014-08-18 17:25 GMT+01:00 Nick Krause <xerofoify@xxxxxxxxx>: > Hey Guys, > After Searching the kernel Docs there is very little information on > this for new developers.
