How the socket read,write works with the hardware(network card or network card driver)?
by Yuc from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4SCV3)
I'm sorry to open this thread,but I have try hard to solve it by myself but failed.
I want to have a clear understanding how the network works from the up to the bottom.So,what is the socket file descriptor is? And what is the relation ship between socket fd with the network card?,what does the bind(),listen() actullay do with the OS? So does the read,write.In all,how the unix implemented the network?I want to know the underlayer. Are there any books talking about those questions thank you.
