The third edition of Understanding the Linux Kernel takes you on a guided tour of the most significant data

structures, algorithms, and programming tricks used in the kernel. Probing beyond superficial features, the

authors offer valuable insights to people who want to know how things really work inside their machine.

Important Intel-specific features are discussed. Relevant segments of code are dissected line by line. But the

book covers more than just the functioning of the code it explains the theoretical underpinnings of why
