Linux Kernel Module Programming
Guide
1999 Ori Pomerantz
Version 1.1.0, 26 April 1999.
This book is about writing Linux Kernel Modules. It is, hopefully, useful for programmers
who know C and want to learn how to write kernel modules. It is written
as an ‘How-To’ instruction manual, with examples of all of the important techniques.
Although this book touches on many points of kernel design, it is not supposed
to fulfill that need - there are other books on this subject, both in print and in the
Linux documentation project.
