questions about MacOS X /Darwin internals related books
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com A while ago there were some posts to the list and also the Darwin Documentation list about planned books on MacOS X/ Darwin internals. David Gatwood said that he was writing a kernel programming book with the working title "Kernel Panic" (and he said that would not be the final title). Also, Gautam Godse said that he was writing a book with the tentative title "Mac OS X/ Darwin: Internals". Have those books or any similar books come out? Also, the online developer documentation on kernel programming suggests reading the book "The Design and Implementation of the 4.4 BSD Operating System" by McKusick et al for background for the BSD part of the kernel. However, it says that the BSD stuff is based on the FreeBSD operating system. More recently, the book "The Design and Implementation of the FreeBSD Operating System" by McKusick and Neville-Neil. So should I really be reading the FreeBSD book? Does anybody know if there is much new stuff in the FreeBSD book anyway? (I already own a copy of the older 4.4 BSD book.)
