Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment, 3rd Edition

Looking for practical and in-depth knowledge of the system programming interfaces that drive the UNIX and Linux kernels? Look no further than the third edition of Advanced Programming in the UNIX Environment.

This edition has been updated by Steve Rago to reflect technical advances and best practices in Version 4 of the Single UNIX Specification. With coverage of over seventy interfaces, including POSIX asynchronous I/O, spin locks, barriers, and POSIX semaphores, this book carefully lays the groundwork for more advanced techniques such as signal handling and terminal I/O.

Steve retains the same spirit and approach that made the previous editions so valuable. The book covers files, directories, and processes before moving on to more advanced topics like threads, multithreaded programming, and socket-based IPC. With plenty of examples, case-studies, and access to thousands of lines of downloadable code, this book has helped generations of programmers write reliable and powerful code.
