Pdfdocs !! Hmm that would be a nice Idea to collate all the Documentation of the kernel into the pdfs and make a book out of it for any kernel version we want ! Thanks ! On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at 11:51 PM, John Chludzinski wrote: > The 2.6 kernel made significant

Re: Are these books outdated?

The 2.6 kernel made significant changes to threading support in the kernel. In 2.6 there's now a 1-to-1 mapping from kthreads to pthreads. On 2016-08-10 14:17, Greg KH wrote: > On Wed, Aug 10, 2016 at 11:16:13PM +0530, Raul Piper wrote: >> Most of the books like Essential linux device drivers,

A copy of Robert Love's book can be had legit @ http://moodle2.insa-lyon.fr/pluginfile.php/16715/course/section/4469/Linux%20Kernel%20Development%203rd%20Edition%20-%20Love%20-%202010.pdf It's based on the 2.6.30 kernel. On 2016-08-10 13:46, Raul Piper wrote: > Most of the books like Essential

Re: Are these books outdated?

Most of the books like Essential linux device drivers, Robert love kernel development, Linux device drivers by Rubini Most of the books are based on old kernels 2.2,2.6 etc I wanted to know hasnt the kernel evolved during these times and is it still good to design drivers based on that

Amidst all this we forget the link shared by Ricardo.I think this is very short and crisp link for very important things in the Linux Kernel and one must keep re-visiting this after/or in between reading these Books mentioned ! On Fri, Jul 15, 2016 at 2:47 AM, Kosta Zertsekel
