内容简介
《深入Linux内核架构》讨论了Linux内核的概念、结构和实现。主要内容包括多任务、调度和进程管理，物理内存的管理以及内核与相关硬件的交互，用户空间的进程如何访问虚拟内存，如何编写设备驱动程序，模块机制以及虚拟文件系统，Ext文件系统属性和访问控制表的实现方式，内核中网络的实现，系统调用的实现方式，内核对时间相关功能的处理，页面回收和页交换的相关机制以及审计的实现等。此外，《深入Linux内核架构》借助内核源代码中最关键的部分进行讲解，帮助读者掌握重要的知识点，从而在运用中充分展现Linux系统的魅力。《深入Linux内核架构》适合Linux内核爱好者阅读。 Find an introduction to the architecture, concepts and algorithms of the Linux kernel in Professional Linux Kernel Architecture , a guide to the kernel sources and large number of connections among subsystems. Find an introduction to the relevant structures and functions exported by the kernel to userland, understand the theoretical and conceptual aspects of the Linux kernel and Unix derivatives, and gain a deeper understanding of the kernel. Learn how to reduce the vast amount of information contained in the kernel sources and obtain the skills necessary to understand the kernel sources.

作者简介
Wolfgang Mauerer is a quantum physicist whose professional interests are centered around quantum cryptography, quantum electrodynamics, and compilers for — you guessed it — quantum architectures. With the confirmed capacity of being the worst experimentalist in the known universe, he sticks to the theoretical side of his profession, which is especially reassuring considering his constant fear of accidentally destroying the universe. Outside his research work, he is fascinated by operating systems, and for more than a decade — starting with an article series about the kernel in 1997 — he has found great pleasure in documenting and explaining Linux kernel internals. He is also the author of a book about typesetting with LaTeX and has written numerous articles that have been translated into seven languages in total.
When he’s not submerged in vast Hilbert spaces or large quantities of source code, he tries to take the opposite direction, namely, upward — be this with model planes, a paraglider, or on foot with an ice axe in his hands: Mountains especially have the power to outrival even the Linux kernel. Consequently, he considers planning and accomplishing a first-ascent expedition to the vast arctic glaciers of east Greenland to be the really unique achievement in his life.
Being interested in everything that is fundamental, he is also the author of the first compiler for Plankalk ¨ ul, the world’s earliest high-level language devised in 1942–1946 by Konrad Zuse, the father of the computer. As an avid reader, he is proud that despite the two-digit number of computers present in his living room, the volume required for books still occupies a larger share.
