[B1] "Linux Device Drivers" Second edition by Alessandro Rubini
and Jonathan Corbet [O'Reilly 2001 ISBN 0-596-00008-1]
This is a solid text on Linux device drivers including some information
on the SCSI subsystem. It covers the block subsystem well and has
many char device driver examples. It has been updated for the Linux
2.4 series kernels and also includes information on the Linux 2.2 and 2.0
series. This book is highly recommended.
