We need a second edition of this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Linux_Programming_Interface https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Linux_Programming_Interfac...

  Purchased a copy of this recently. Definitely recommend, although I'm curious how out of date people think the content is, and how a second edition would improve things.

    Does it cover cgroups?

    Not outdated at all, but it would be nice to have a new edition with the errata [1] and maybe some additional content. Some sort of anniversary edition. [1] https://man7.org/tlpi/errata/index.html https://man7.org/tlpi/errata/index.html

      I would also love an updated edition that includes additional content. The errata is regularly included with updated prints [1][2]. [1] https://man7.org/tlpi/errata/errata_by_print_run.html https://man7.org/tlpi/errata/errata_by_print_run.html [2] http://blog.man7.org/ http://blog.man7.org/

  Fully agree, this is a great book. Also need a 2nd edition of "Professional Linux Kernel Architecture" by Wolgang Mauerer.

    > Also need a 2nd edition of "Professional Linux Kernel Architecture" by Wolgang Mauerer. I had not heard of this book at all. How does it compare with Robert Love's Linux Kernel Development?
    • HybridCurve 4y ago
      I've not read Love's book, but Maurer's is about 3 times as many pages. I feel like it was the perfect companion book to TLPI since it covers many of the same things but in kernel space.
