本附錄列出了本書中描述的Linux使用的主要的數據結構。為了在頁面上訪得下，它們經過了少量的編輯。
Block_dev_strUCt
block_dev_struct數據結構用於登記可用的塊設備，讓buffer cache使用。它們放在blk_dev向量表中。
參見include/linux/blkdev.h
struct blk_dev_struct {
void (*request_fn)(void);
struct request * current_request;
struct request plug;
struct tq_struct plug_tq;
};
buffer_head
buffer_head數據結構存放buffer cache中一個塊緩沖區的信息。
參見include/linux/fs.h
/* bh state bits */
#define BH_Uptodate 0 /* 1 if the buffer contains valid data */
#define BH_Dirty 1 /* 1 if the buffer is dirty */
#define BH_Lock 2 /* 1 if the buffer is locked */
#define BH_Req 3 /* 0 if the buffer has been invalidated */
#define BH_Touched 4 /* 1 if the buffer has been touched (aging) */
#define BH_Has_aged 5 /* 1 if the buffer has been aged (aging) */
#define BH_Protected 6 /* 1 if the buffer is protected */
#define BH_FreeOnIO 7 /* 1 to discard the buffer_head after IO */
struct buffer_head {
/* First cache line: */
unsigned long b_blocknr; /* block number */

device
系統中的每一個網絡設備都用一個device數據結構表示
參見include/linux/netdevice.h
