Source Code of the Programs in The Linux Programming Interface

Please take a look at the README file and the BUILDING file for general information about the program source code and how to compile it.

If you encounter compilation problems, please read the source code FAQ.

For a summary of changes that have been made to the code since it was printed in the book, see the CHANGES file.

The source code for the program examples in TLPI is provided in two versions:

• Distribution version: a tarball of the source code that includes extra material not shown in the book. Probably, this is the version of the code that you want.
• Book version: a tarball of the source code as it appears in the book.

For an explanation of why there are two versions of the code, look here.

All of the source code is copyright 2010, Michael Kerrisk, and licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License (Version 3).
