Linux Kernel Hackers' Guide

Linux Kernel Hackers' Guide from Michael K. Johnson

source: http://tldp.org/LDP/khg/HyperNews/get/khg.html last updated 26Feb2018

Tour of the Linux Kernel: This is a somewhat incomplete tour of the Linux Kernel, based on Linux 1.0.9 and the 1.1.x development series. Most of it is still relevant.
Device Drivers: The most common Linux kernel programming task is writing a new device driver. The great majority of the code in the kernel is new device drivers; between 1.2.13 and 2.0 the size of the source code more than doubled, and most of that was from adding device drivers.
Filesystems: Adding a filesystem to Linux doesn't have to involve magic...
Linux Memory Management: A few outdated documents, and one completely new one by David Miller on the Linux cache flush architecture.
How System Calls Work on Linux/i86: Although this was written while Linux 0.99.2 was current, it still applies. A few filenames may need updating. find is your friend--just respond with the changes and they will be added.
Other Sources of Information: The KHG is just one collection of information about the Linux kernel. There are others!
