Mastering the Linux Kernel: Core Technologies for Intelligent Device Development has a total of five articles, which analyze the core technologies of Linux kernel development in detail in order from easy to difficult. "Knowledge Reserve" introduces Linux data structure, interrupt processing, kernel synchronization and time calculation, etc. These are the prerequisites for understanding subsequent chapters. Afterwards, the three core modules of Linux are introduced in detail through "Memory Management", "File System" and "Process Management". The final "Sublimation Chapter" combines many previous modules to show the application of Linux kernel development in hot areas such as operating systems, smart devices, drivers, communications, chips, and artificial intelligence. The key points and difficulties in the book are displayed with charts, codes and practical cases, which helps improve readers' hands-on skills.
Proficient in the Linux kernel: Readers of core technologies for smart device development need to be familiar with C language and have a certain understanding of the Linux kernel. It is recommended that beginners read in the order in which this book is organized, while readers who are familiar with the Linux kernel can skip the first chapter and read directly from the three core modules. This book can be used as a guide for beginners and intermediate Linux readers to systematically learn Linux kernel development. It can also be used as a desk guide and advanced tool book for engineers engaged in embedded, operating systems, Linux programming, driver/kernel development, and intelligent device development.
