[DOWNLOAD] Linux Device Driver Development Cookbook: Develop custom drivers for your embedded Linux applications by Rodolfo Giometti ~ Book PDF Kindle ePub Free

Over 30 recipes to develop custom drivers for your embedded Linux applicationsKey FeaturesUse kernel facilities to develop powerful driversLearn core concepts for developing device drivers using a practical approachProgram a custom character device to get access to kernel internalsBook DescriptionLinux is a unified kernel that is widely used to develop embedded systems. As Linux has turned out to be one of the most popular operating systems worldwide, the interest in developing proprietary device drivers has also increased. Device drivers play a critical role in how the system performs and ensure that the device works in the manner intended. By exploring several examples on the development of character devices, the technique of managing a device tree, and how to use other kernel internals, such as interrupts, kernel timers, and wait queue, you'll be able to add proper management for custom peripherals to your embedded system.You'll begin by installing the Linux kernel and then configuring it. Once you have installed the system, you will learn to use different kernel features and character drivers. You will also cover interrupts in-depth and understand how you can manage them. Later, you will explore the kernel internals required for developing applications. As you approach the concluding chapters, you will learn to implement advanced character drivers and also discover how to write important Linux device drivers.By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to write a custom character driver and kernel code according to your requirements.What you will learnBecome familiar with the latest kernel releases (4.19/5.x) running on the ESPRESSOBin devkit, an ARM 64-bit machineDownload, configure, modify, and build kernel sourcesAdd and remove a device driver or a module from the kernelUnderstand how to implement character drivers to manage different kinds of computer peripheralsGet well-versed with kernel helper functions and objects that can be used to build kernel applicationsGain comprehensive insights into managing custom hardware with Linux from both the kernel and user spaceWho this book is forThis book is for anyone who wants to develop their own Linux device drivers for embedded systems.
