This course provides an introduction to Kernel programming for the Linux operating system, and the development of Linux kernel drivers for Embedded devices. The Yocto build system is introduced, which ...

[Johannes 4GNU_Linux] has been filming a video series on how to write Linux device drivers for a couple of years now, but luckily, you won’t need that long to watch them or to create your own driver.

Almost all Linux kernel device drivers work on more than just one type of processor. This only happens because device-driver writers adhere to a few important rules. These rules include using the ...

This paper describes a methodology for automatically generating device drivers for embedded systems. We formally specify the device behavior and attributes in an input specification called DPS (Device ...

Analog Devices (ADI) expands it Linux distribution with over 1000 in-kernel drivers for devices from both ADI and Maxim Integrated Products. These open-source drivers streamline the software ...

I have a regular discussion about user-mode drivers and Linux. It starts with a customer who maintains a DOS system realizing that at some point--usually sooner than later--he must upgrade his ...

When you choose an operating system for medical devices, you can easily get confused by the wide choice of options. They may differ in the nature of their source code, cost, size, architecture, ...
