Linux头文件

1.内核编程使用头文件

 

The base files are located in the include/ directory in the root of the kernel source tree. For 

example, the header file <linux/inotify.h> is located at include/linux/inotify.h in the kernel source tree.

 

A set of architecture-specific header files are located in arch/<architecture>/include/asm 

in the kernel source tree. For example, if compiling for the x86 architecture, your architecture-specific headers are in arch/x86/include/asm. Source code includes these headers via just the asm/ prefix, for example <asm/ioctl.h>

2.应用程序编程使用头文件

 

Linux system programming revolves around a handful of headers. Both the kernel itself

and  glibc provide the headers used in system-level programming. These headers include

the standard C fare (for example,  <string.h>), and the usual Unix offerings (say,

<unistd.h>)
