Linux Device Driver Development: Everything you need to start with device driver development for Linux kernel and embedded Linux

15 minutes

This technical resource is intended for experienced users like embedded engineers and kernel hackers and requires prior knowledge of C programming and Linux commands. The content offers comprehensive instruction on developing Linux drivers for kernel version v5.10 and embedded Linux systems, covering essential topics such as setting up the development environment, understanding kernel module concepts, implementing character device drivers (including file operations like read, write, and ioctl), and utilizing the Device Tree mechanism. Furthermore, the book explores advanced kernel subsystems, including the Linux Device Model (LDM), Regmap API for register abstraction, IRQ framework and interrupt handling, locking primitives (spinlocks and mutexes), time management, and the IIO and GPIO frameworks.
