Subject: Complete commentary on kernel code needed

Hello linux-experts,
I want a complete commentary on linux kernel
code. I found one such book. But are there any online
books available for this stuff? If one such book is
available I request you people to send me the whole
file or atleast the URL.

Regards,
selva

As suggested in some older posts. Read the code and feel the force.
Code is well commeted. Also you can check Documentation directory under source.

Reading the code might be easier if you setup xref tools like lxr,
http://lxr.sourceforge.net in your site. You could have a look at sites
which already allow you to browse code using lxr, but if you have a slow
connection, lxr in your intranet/local machine would be best.

Best of Luck
