The OP is talking about mucking about in the kernel. Even if that book did talk about kernel programming, Stevens has been dead for 15-20 years so the book would be horribly out of date.

This course provides an introduction to Kernel programming for the Linux operating system, and the development of Linux kernel drivers for Embedded devices. The Yocto build system is introduced, which ...

We then go over the differences between the kernel and user-space programs and common programming constructs used in the kernel. Although the kernel certainly is unique in many ways, at the end of the ...

I'm a Linux poseur. But a new Linux book, Greg Kroah-Hartman's Linux Kernel in a Nutshell, could help people like me get some real technical chops. I've had nerd tendencies for decades.
