Intermediate Level Users.
Includes CD-ROM.
This book provides the first detailed discussion of Linux networking support at the source code level and covers the newest 2.2 version of the Linux kernel. The book also uses a horizontal format which allows the book to stay flat while open, provides space for easy-to-read columns of code, and encourages exhaustive cross-referencing.
The book is conveniently divided into two parts, and contains over 500,000 lines of code that have been excerpted and explained in detail. The code is listed and numbered sequentially and corresponds to the commentary in the second part of the book. You are also given architectural flowcharts to enhance your understanding of the structure of the code. The book comes with a complimentary CD which includes the Linux code and software.
