OS X and iOS Kernel Programmingcombines essential operating system and kernel architecture knowledge with a highly practical approach that will help you write effective kernel-level code. You'll learn fundamental concepts such as memory management and thread synchronization, as well as the I/O Kit framework. You'll also learn how to write your own kernel-level extensions, such as device drivers for USB and Thunderbolt devices, including networking, storage and audio drivers. OS X and iOS Kernel Programmingprovides an incisive and complete introduction to the XNU kernel, which runs iPhones, iPads, iPods, and Mac OS X servers and clients. Then, you'll expand your horizons to examine Mac OS X and iOS system architecture. Understanding Apple's operating systems will allow you to write efficient device drivers, such as those covered in the book, using I/O Kit. WithOS X and iOS Kernel Programming, you'll:Discover classical kernel architecture topics such as memory management and thread synchronizationBecome well-versed in the intricacies of the kernel development process by applying kernel debugging and profiling toolsLearn how to deploy your kernel-level projects and how to successfully package themWrite code that interacts with hardware devicesExamine easy to understand example code that can also be used in your own projectsCreate network filtersWhether you're a hobbyist, student, or professional engineer, turn to OS X andiOS Kernel Programming and find the knowledge you need to start developing | OS X and iOS Kernel Programming by Ole Henry Halvorsen, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
