Understanding the Linux Kernel, D. P. Bovet & M. Cesati

«In the spring semester of 1997, we taught a course on operating systems based on Linux 2.0. The idea was to encourage students to read the source code. To achieve this, we assigned term projects consisting of making changes to the kernel and performing tests on the modified version. We also wrote course notes for our students about a few critical features of Linux like task switching and task scheduling.

We continued along this line in the spring semester of 1998, but we moved on to the Linux 2.1 development version. Our course notes were becoming larger and larger. In July, 1998 we contacted O’Reilly & Associates, suggesting they publish a whole book on the Linux kernel. The real work started in the fall of 1998 and lasted about a year and a half. We read thousands of lines of code, trying to make sense of them. After all this work, we can say that it was worth the effort. We learned a lot of things you don’t find in books, and we hope we have succeded in conveying some of this information in the following pages. »

D. P. Bovet, M. Cesati (from the Preface of the first edition)

«The success encountered by this book encouraged us to continue along this line, and in the fall of 2001 we started planning a second edition covering Linux 2.4. As a result, we had to rewrite from scratch two-thirds of the book, increasing its size by roughly 25 percent. »

D. P. Bovet, M. Cesati (from the Preface of the second edition)

We have collected here several bits of information about our books. The page is essentially a link container, thus don’t expect too much from it. Be aware that the second edition of ULK is not just a slightly revised version of the first edition: rather, it is a whole new book, explaining the inner details of the Linux 2.4 stable version.

Book description

Why is Linux so efficient? Is it the right operating system for a particular application? What can be learned from looking at the kernel source code? These are the kinds of questions that Understanding the Linux Kernel takes in stride in this guided tour of the code that forms the core of all Linux operating systems. Linux is presented too often as a casual hacker experiment. It has increasingly become not only a mission-critical part of many organizations, but a sophisticated display of programming skill. It incorporates many advanced operating system concepts and has proven itself extremely robust and efficient for a wide range of uses. Understanding the Linux Kernel helps readers understand how Linux performs best and how it meets the challenge of different environments. The authors introduce each topic by explaining its importance, and show how kernel operations relate to the utilities that are familiar to Unix programmers and users. Major topics include:

  • Memory management, including file buffering, process swapping, and Direct Memory Access (DMA)
  • The Virtual File System and the Second Extended File System
  • Process creation and scheduling
  • Signals, interrupts, and the essential interfaces to device drivers
  • Timing
  • Synchronization in the kernel
  • Inter-Process Communication (IPC)
  • Program execution
