Re: "Professional Linux Kernel Architecture"?

It seems that this book is based on 2.4 version.
Below is the table of content of Chapter 1:

1 INTRODUCTION.

1.1 Overview of TCP/IP Stack.

1.2 Source Code Organization for Linux 2.4.20.

1.3 TCP/IP Stack and Kernel Control Paths.

1.4 Linux Kernel Until Version 2.4 Is Non-preemptible.

1.5 Linux Process and Thread.

1.6 Kernel Synchronization Mechanism.

1.7 Application Interfaces for TCP/IP Programming.

1.8 Shutdown.

1.9 I/O.

1.10 TCP State.

1.11 Summary.

I'm not sure about this because I don't have a copy on my hand.

Who can make sure that on which version of this book was based ?

 since that book is listed as copyright 2008, it would be ridiculous
if it was based on the 2.4 kernel.
