## Chapter 10. Further reading

- `Documentation/spinlocks.txt`: Linus Torvalds' spinlocking tutorial in the kernel sources.

- Unix Systems for Modern Architectures: Symmetric Multiprocessing and Caching for Kernel Programmers:

  Curt Schimmel's very good introduction to kernel level locking (not written for Linux, but nearly everything applies). The book is expensive, but really worth every penny to understand SMP locking. [ISBN: 0201633388]
