I - simply explain some best practices, and give reading entry-points - into the kernel sources. I avoid implementation details: that's - what the code is for, and I ignore whole tracts of useful - routines. This document assumes familiarity with C, and an - understanding of what the kernel is, and how it is used. It was - originally written for the 2.3 kernels, but nearly all of it - applies to 2.2 too; 2.0 is slightly different". - - * Title: **Linux Kernel Locking HOWTO** - - :Author: Various Talented People, and Rusty. - :Location: Documentation/DocBook/kernel-locking.tmpl - :Keywords: locks, locking, spinlock, semaphore, atomic, race - condition, bottom halves, tasklets, softirqs. - :Description: The title says it all: document describing the - locking system in the Linux Kernel either in uniprocessor or SMP - systems. - :Notes: "It was originally written for the later (>2.3.47) 2.3 - kernels, but most of it applies to 2.2 too; 2.0 is slightly - different".
