Zusammenfassung:bGet up and running with system programming concepts in Linux/b h4Key Features/h4 ulliAcquire insight on Linux system architecture and its programming interfaces /li liGet to grips with core concepts such as process management, signalling and pthreads /li liPacked with industry best practices and dozens of code examples /li /ul h4Book Description/h4 The Linux OS and its embedded and server applications are critical components of today's software infrastructure in a decentralized, networked universe. The industry's demand for proficient Linux developers is only rising with time. Hands-On System Programming with Linux gives you a solid theoretical base and practical industry-relevant descriptions, and covers the Linux system programming domain. It delves into the art and science of Linux application programming- system architecture, process memory and management, signaling, timers, pthreads, and file IO.
This book goes beyond the use API X to do Y approach; it explains the concepts and theories required to understand programming interfaces and design decisions, the tradeoffs made by experienced developers when using them, and the rationale behind them. Troubleshooting tips and techniques are included in the concluding chapter. By the end of this book, you will have gained essential conceptual design knowledge and hands-on experience working with Linux system programming interfaces.

To get the most out of this book, you should be familiar with Linux at the user-level logging in, using shell via the command line interface, the ability to use tools such as find, grep, and sort.
