Linux Network Architecture

Rating:
Summary: very good book
Review: Overall this is a very good book on a topic
that is not well documented elsewhere. Well written
and easy to read. Lots of diagrams showing code
flow which was very helpful for digesting the
information. The only caveat is that this book
does not cover more recent 2.6 kernel (e.g. no discussion
of NAPI). Such is the problem with linux books, by
the time these books are published the code
has changed significantly. Regardless this book
is still worth buying if you need to understand
linux network architecture and the source code.

Summary: Excellent!!
Review: This book is an incredible explanation of the Linux implementations of networking. The book covers all levels of networking from the driver to TCP and UDP. The book cites specific functions from the source and explains what they do. The book walks through the kernel structures and identifies the purpose of each variable. I highly recomend this book for linux kernel programmers!
