The Linux Programming Interface

Michael Kerrisk is well-known in the Linux community as the maintainer of the man-pages project (www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/), which documents the Linux kernel-userspace and standard C library interfaces. A former Digital Equipment Corporation programmer and trainer, Kerrisk was more recently an engineer at Google and then a fellow at the Linux Foundation working on kernel-userspace interface design review, testing, and documentation. He is a New Zealander living with his family in Munich, Germany.

The Linux Programming Interface describes the Linux API (application programming interface)-the system calls, library functions, and other low-level interfaces that are used, directly or indirectly, by every program that runs on Linux. Programs that explicitly use these interfaces are commonly called system programs, and include applications such as shells, editors, windowing systems, terminal emulators, file managers, compilers, database management systems, virtual machines, network servers, and much of the other software that is employed on a daily basis on Linux systems. Extensively indexed and heavily cross-referenced, The Linux Programming Interface is both an introductory guide for readers new to the topic of system programming, and a comprehensive reference for experienced system programmers. Although this book goes into detail on a wealth of Linux-specific features, it gives careful attention to contemporary Unix programming standards and to portability issues.

读后感

就像搞编辑的案头应该放一本《新华字典》、搞数学的案头应该放一本《数学手册》一样，搞Linux开发的案头就应该放一本APUE。或者，你可以考虑再放一本《The Linux Programming Interface》。 也许用其它任何一种标准来衡量，此书都难称上品，但作为工具书，我非常愿意给它五星...  

译文如有不妥，或有任何反馈意见可发豆邮给我。 第2章 基本概念 本章旨在向LINUX和UNIX“生手”们介绍一系列与LINUX系统编程有关的概念。 2.1 操作系统的核心——内核 术语“操作系统”通常包含两种不同涵义： 1、指完整的软件包，这包括用来管理计算机资源的核心层软件，...

这本书出来时，有人在cu推荐了，我下载回来了电子版，据说是和apue不分伯仲的好书，那个时候，我一点都不会写程序，对c语言的理解也是仅仅限于理论知识熟悉一点，想要写一个简单程序，对我来说都是一个不可完成的任务。 一方面我知道自己的现状，想要让自己通过学习实践去提升...  

老实说，这本书还真是我见过的 Linux system programming 方面最完美的书（包括APUE），以前读国内的书，总觉得很多东西没讲，尤其是 why，在想有没有一本书即讲 what 有讲 why，还特别全的，于是就发现 APUE 就是这么一本书，后来觉得 APUE 也有很多东西是点到即止，比如说内...

吐血力薦!!!

学习Linux系统编程最好的书。

只看了socket/io-multiplexing/IPC/so部分；juebi not just one fucking manual

Read it with <understanding unix/linux programming>
