Hello all, looking to get into Kernel development and want to know your recommendations for books or resources on Kernel development? Hands on or project based would be best but anything would help. Thanks!

I found "Linux Kernel Development" a nice overview of the kernel code: https://books.google.pt/books?id=3MWRMYRwulIC&printsec=front...

I found "Linux Device Drivers, Third Edition" by Rubini et al an excellent intro to Kernel development:

https://lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/

Probably a lot has changed in the Linux kernel since then, so YMMV.

Thanks, a lot has probably changed but I'm sure a lot is similar.

I've seen http://eudyptula-challenge.org being referred to many times in these contexts. I myself have been meaning to get into it but haven't yet.
