Adopts and extends the method used by the famous Lion's Commentary on Unix, which still is a much sought after title even 20 years after publication. Continual Web updates available. Uses a horizontal format (11" x 8 3/8" trim size) which allows for exhaustive cross-referencing, space for easy-to-read columns of code, and the book to stay flat while open. Over 42,000 lines of code are excerpted and explained in detail. Includes extensive cross-referencing and architectural flow charts to enhance understanding of the structure of the code. Linux IP Stacks Commentary is currently the only commentary-style book available on the Linux IP stacks, and it covers the 2.0.34 version of the Linux kernel.

1.0 out of 5 stars
waste of money,
By A Customer
This review is from: Linux IP Stacks Commentary: Guide to Gaining Insider's Knowledge on the IP Stacks of the Linux Code (Paperback)
i needed some comments on the linux ip code, the title was right and there was a five stars review by a reader, had no time to wait and so i ordered it by e-commerce. Already accustomed to comments a la R.Stevens was very hopeful What a mistake ! more than 450 pages of linux kernel listings, not only, the listed kernel was 2.0 (at this time the firsts 2.4 are out) !!!! The commentary, all at the end of the listing not very insightful, will never buy another book in this series !

hmmm...... where is my pointer?,

This review is from: Linux IP Stacks Commentary: Guide to Gaining Insider's Knowledge on the IP Stacks of the Linux Code (Paperback)
I took a look at the Japanese version of this book. Like what the previous commentator has said, it's just published source codes. I would recommend interested readers to read up these 2 books instead:Linux Device Drivers by O Reilly Linux Kernel Internals by Addison Wesley Both are on kernel 2.0, but things remain relatively similar for kernel 2.4.3 still exploring....

This review is from: Linux IP Stacks Commentary: Guide to Gaining Insider's Knowledge on the IP Stacks of the Linux Code (Paperback)
for anyone wanting to understand the codes that are needed to write programs such as graphics and to also write programs in c and java this book is a basis of those teachings remember what they say about all those gurus and computer experts without them there would never have been AOL, NETSCAPE ,MSN you name it this book is a source code reference. For those programmers who have have mastered basic programming this book should help them develop their skills to the next level in web designs as well as internet programming
