Hi Xiong,
you can get a lot of books on kernel internals... But my experience says...
reading code is the best solution....all the intricacies can only be cleared
when u hack the code....
btw a new "understanding the linux kernel" by O'reilly pub. can be helpful in
'code reading'.

Richard, can you add this URL to the FAQ ? There is a similar question
every month or so on lkml. This way we can just flame them instead ;)
thanks
