Résumé
- Master x86 assembly language from a Linux perspective!
- Essential information for creating Linux device drivers
- How Linux works "under the hood!"
- CD-ROM includes edlinas, the #1 Linux x86 hands-on assembler development simulator
The first Linux-centered guide to x86 assembly language!
In Linux Assembly Language Programming, Bob Neveln explains all the key features of x86 assembly language in the context of the Linux operating system and the C language. The book's step-by-step, one-concept-at-a-time coverage will help any hardware programmer move to Linux, and master essential skills for Linux device driver development. You won't just learn new x86 assembly language skills: you'll also gain powerful "under the hood" insight into how Linux works. Bonus CD-ROM includes edlinas, the #1 Linux-based x86 interactive assembler development simulator!
