Valdis,
In addition I generally learn 5 or 6 areas of a topic or program at
the same time so I
am just asking at different times. Just to make you and the other
developers have
an easier time I will paste my kernel interests below in a list.
Regards Nick
1. Networking
2. Usb, PCI , Networking and CPU Freq Drivers
3. Embedded Boards
4. Kernel Booting with UEFI(curiosity mostly)
5. Btrfs , F2FS ,NFS filesysems
6.  VFS
7. Process and Virtual Memory Subsystems
8. Memory Management
