Inside, you'll explore:
- Kernel architecture and the user/kernel boundary
- Processes, tasks, and CPU scheduling
- Memory management and virtual memory
- System calls and user-kernel communication

You'll also encounter useful Linux commands, development concepts, troubleshooting techniques, and practical examples that help connect theory with real-world systems.
Whether you're learning Linux kernel development for the first time or want a stronger foundation before exploring advanced topics, this book gives you a structured path for understanding how the kernel manages the system beneath your applications.
Start exploring the Linux kernel and build a foundation you can continue developing through hands-on practice.
