Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org A while back someone mentioned that work was being done on a sort of FreeBSD Kernel Hacker's Guide. I was wondering if anyone had any information on the status of this? I'm looking at working on a few odd things for my own use, and some solid documentation on the FreeBSD kernel (how to add system calls, the exact process needed to fork a process (not "use fork1" but the steps fork1 itself must do to start a process, how they are scheduled, where the code that currently performs these operations is located, etc, etc)) would be a life saver, not to mention the years of studying the source code it would save me ;) [ EMail : licia@o-o.org ] [ Name : Christine (Licia) Maxwell ] [ Home : http://www.o-o.org/~licia/ ] [ Hobbies : write, program, web, chat ] [ BBS : http://www.o-o.org/bbs/ ] [ Handles : Licia / LadyWolf / Sysop ] [ OS : http://www.freebsd.org/ ] [ Profiled: finger profiled@o-o.org ] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
