7. RESOURCES

You main resource for Linux assembly programming material is Linux Assembly :).

Here are some resources listed there.

7.1 Software projects

• asmutils (unix utils written with NASM)
• ec64 (C64 emulator)
• ELF kickers & tiny Linux executables
• ASMIX (unix utils in written with GAS)
• eforth 1.0e

7.2 Tutorials

• Introduction to Linux/i386 Assembly Programming
• Linux assembly tutorial (GAS and GDB related)
• A Whirlwind Tutorial on Creating Really Teensy ELF Executables for Linux
• Jan's Linux & Assembler HomePage (mostly about assembly programming with libc)

7.3 Mailing list

If you're are interested in Linux assembly programming (or have questions, or are just curious) I especially invite you to join Linux assembly programming mailing list.

List address is mailto:linux-assembly@egroups.com.

To subscribe send a blank message to mailto:linux-assembly@egroups.com.

List archives are available at http://www.egroups.com/list/linux-assembly/.

7.4 Books

Unfortunately there are no ready books I can recommend on the topic. However I'm in the progress of writing a book "Linux Assembly Programming", which [hopefully] will be published somewhere in 2000.

7.5 Somehow related projects

• NASM (portable x86 assembler with Intel syntax)
• BIEW (portable console hex viewer/editor with built-in disassembler)
• UPX (portable executable packer for several formats)
• Intel2gas (converter between AT&T and Intel assembler syntax)
• A2I (converter from AT&T to NASM Intel assembler syntax)
• Assembly Programming Journal (has articles on Linux assembly)

7.6 General pointers

• The Art Of Assembly
• x86 assembly FAQ
• ftp.luth.se mirrors the hornet and x2ftp former archives of msdos assembly coding stuff
• CPU family references: Intel, AMD; x86 bugs; Alpha; PowerPC assembly
• Fun stuff: CoreWars, a fun way to learn assembly in general
• USENET: comp.lang.asm.x86; alt.os.assembly
