Best selling guide to the inner workings of the Linux operating system with over 50,000 copies sold since its release in 2014. This in-depth guide to the various components of a Linux system covers topics like how the system boots, how networking works, and what the Linux kernel actually does.

The Linux operating system is the power behind Android, Chromebooks, web servers, and the public cloud. It's impossible to know for sure but there may well be over 60 million Linux users in the world. Developers and system maintainers need to understand how Linux works in order to use it effectively and fix it when it breaks. In this third edition of the best selling How Linux Works, author Brian Ward peels back the layers of this well-loved operating system to make Linux internals accessible. Readers learn how Linux boots, how the kernel manages devices and device drivers, and how processes, networking, interfaces, firewalls, and servers work. They also learn how Linux-based development tools work, how to use shared libraries, and how to write effective shell scripts. This edition has been thoroughly updated and expanded with added coverage of Logical Volume Manager (LVM), virtualization, and containers.

Recenzijas

"Comprehensive . . . The third edition of How Linux Works is a good introduction to Linux that also is organized such that readers can flip through and go as far into a subject as necessary to answer questions at hand, skipping the more extensive explanations that arent crucial for their current topic of interest. In that regard, the book is a nice reference to have on the bookshelf." Lee Teschler, Microcontroller Tips

"The book is very thoroughfrom looking down into the hardware, through delving into how the kernel functions, to covering the most important commands, file systems, swap space, boot loaders, networking and more. In fact, I'm not at all surprised that this book has survived to its 3rd editionboth because it's a genuinely good book and because Linux has gone through some serious changes in the past seven years, especially related to such things as its use of containers, the flexibility of logical volume manager and the continued move toward virtualization. . . . This is a very thorough and up-to-date book. After using Unix and then Linux for nearly 40 years, I am still getting a lot of value and significant insights from reading it." Sandra Henry-Stocker, longstanding Linux journalist

"If you've not read this book yet, you really should. It's very good, highly detailed, approachable, comprehensive, and just an overall joy to read as a Linux nerd. Highly recommend!" Adam Miller, @TheMaxamillion

"This book provides an overview of Linux, with some information on how to dive deeper into its topics. Recommended." Ian Bruntlett, C Vu Journal Vol. 33 #4, ACCU

"I recommend [ How Linux Works] if you want to learn and understand the core functioning of Linux. [ It's] the perfect book if you are absolutely new or if you want to improve your Linux knowledge." It's FOSS - Linux Portal, @itsfoss2

"A fantastic book which I highly recommend whether you are new to Linux or an old hat." The Security Noob
