To thoroughly understand what makes Linux tick and why it's so
efficient, you need to delve deep into the heart of the operating
system -- into the Linux kernel itself. The kernel is Linux -- in
the case of the Linux operating system, it's the only bit of
software to which the term "Linux" applies. The kernel handles all
the requests or completed I/O operations and determines which
programs will share its processing time, and in what order.
Responsible for the sophisticated memory management of the whole
system, the Linux kernel is the force behind the legendary Linux
efficiency. The new edition of Understanding the Linux Kernel takes
you on a guided tour through the most significant data structures,
many algorithms, and programming tricks used in the kernel. Probing
beyond the superficial features, the authors offer valuable insights
to people who want to know how things really work inside their
machine. Relevant segments of code are dissected and discussed line
by line. The book covers more than just the functioning of the code,
it explains the theoretical underpinnings for why Linux does things
the way it does.
The new edition of the book has been updated to cover version 2.4
of the kernel, which is quite different from version 2.2: the
virtual memory system is entirely new, support for multiprocessor
systems is improved, and whole new classes of hardware devices have
been added. The authors explore each new feature in detail. Other
topics in the book include:
- Memory management including file buffering, process
swapping, and Direct memory Access (DMA)
- The Virtual Filesystem and the Second Extended Filesystem
Process creation and scheduling
- Signals, interrupts, and the essential interfaces to device
drivers
Timing
- Synchronization in the kernel
- Interprocess Communication (IPC)
- Program execution
Understanding the Linux Kernel, Second Edition will acquaint you
with all the inner workings of Linux, but is more than just an
academic exercise. You'll learn what conditions bring out Linux's
best performance, and you'll see how it meets the challenge of
providing good system response during process scheduling, file
access, and memory management in a wide variety of environments. If
knowledge is power, then this book will help you make the most of
your Linux system
