> The main goal of this book is to use a minimal amount of space or within a limited space to dissect the complete Linux kernel source code in order to obtain a full understanding of the basic functions and actual implementation of the operating system. To achieve a complete and profound understanding of the Linux kernel, a true understanding and introduction of the basic operating principles of the Linux operating system. This book's readership is positioned to know the general use of Linux systems or has a certain programming basis, but it lacks the basic knowledge to read the current new kernel code and is eager to understand the working principle and actual code of the UNIX operating system kernel as soon as possible. Realize the lovers.
- CraftThatBlock 8y ago1117 pages for millions of lines of code doesn't seem too bad, relatively speaking
- badfrog 8y agoOnly ~20k lines. From the book's into: > The current Linux kernel source code amount is in the number of millions of lines, the 2.6.0 version of the kernel code line is about 5.92 million lines, and the 4.18.X version of the kernel code is extremely large, and it has exceeded 25 million lines! So it is almost impossible to fully annotate and elaborate on these kernels. The 0.12 version of the kernel does not exceed 20,000 lines of code, so it can be explained and commented clearly in a book
- CraftThatBlock 8y agoAh my bad. I guess it's still relatively fair overall.

- metildaa 8y agoGlue code for the drivers :P
- porpoisely 8y ago1 million lines of code in 1000 pages would come out to 500 lines of code per side of page. You'd need a big magnifying glass to get through that. The book covers an old version of linux which had a few thousand lines of code.
