Connecting the worlds of hardware and software
Let's understand the fundamental mechanism of an OS.

As its name suggests, the kernel is the [core] component of an OS, and is responsible for a wide range of functions related to hardware control, including storage and file system management, process control, scheduling, and networking.

Linux is open source software, and its wide accessibility to everyone is one of the features that have supported its development. However, even if we limit ourselves to the kernel, which is its foundation, it is too large and complex to read and understand its source code. For this reason, it is also true that few people understand the role and structure of the Linux kernel.

Although the role of an operating system is to allow you to develop*use software without having to understand such a fundamental part as the kernel, as an engineer, it is a great advantage to know and be able to visualize the fundamental mechanisms of such a system in concrete terms. In this book, the authors, who have worked with the Linux kernel for a long time, explain not only classic OS functions such as scheduling and memory management, but also a wide range of more recent topics such as VMs, containers, and security functions, with many illustrations. This is a book that explains the structure, mechanisms, and workings of the Linux kernel from a variety of perspectives that have been difficult to approach without specialized knowledge.
