Book Description

The "FreeBSD Architecture Handbook" book provides a comprehensive technical reference for the internal architecture and subsystems of the FreeBSD operating system. It details kernel internals including bootstrapping processes, locking mechanisms, and system initialization frameworks like SYSINIT. The handbook extensively covers security architectures such as the TrustedBSD MAC Framework and the Jail subsystem, along with driver development for various hardware interfaces (ISA, PCI, USB, SCSI). Additionally, it explores core kernel components including virtual memory management, SMPng design, and the Kobj object-oriented programming system. This open book serves as essential documentation for developers and system engineers working with or extending the FreeBSD kernel.
