Homework Assignment: Write about Linux Memory Management
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

<P><STRONG>
I was wondering if you knew a site where I can get alot of information
on Linux's Memory Management. I am doing a report on it and need as
much infomation I can get. Websites, books, etc.. any info will help.
Thank you for your time.

How about the source code? That would be the most
authoritative resource on the topic. Look through the
sources in <TT>/usr/src/linux/mm</TT> for starters.

If you look at my "LDP by Topics" page and search on
"programming" you'll find a list of all of LDP HOWTOs and
guides that relate to Linux programming. In particular
there the ones that refer to the "kernel." That might
be a good introduction; help you get your bearings.

There is also the "The Linux Programmer's BouncePoint"
at <A HREF="http://www.ee.mu.oz.au/linux/programming"
>http://www.ee.mu.oz.au/linux/programming</A> and the
Linux Programming page at the #LinuxOS (IRC Channel)
home page: <A HREF="http://www.linuxos.org/Lprogram.html"
>http://www.linuxos.org/Lprogram.html</A>
Another site is Rik van Riel's Linux Memory Management
page at: <A HREF="http://www.linux.eu.org/Linux-MM"
>http://www.linux.eu.org/Linux-MM</A> (though this
is really pretty preliminary -- it has links to related
topics. Rik apparently started this, then got side-tracked
to write a performance tuning guide. (An understandable
priority, considering things like the Mindcraft fiasco).
