Linux Kernel In a Nutshell by Greg Kroah-Hartman

Includes bibliographical references (p. 168-170) and index.

An operating system's kernel handles all interactions between the CPU and the external world, and determines which programs will share processor time, in what order. This in-depth reference documents Version 2.6 of the Linux kernel, which has seen significant changes to nearly every kernel subsystem, particularly in the areas of memory management and block devices.
