Practical experience on the embedded side of Linux Who This Book Is For This book will help anyone who wants to get started with developing their own Linux device drivers for embedded systems. Embedded Linux users will benefit highly from this book. This book covers all about device driver development, from char drivers to network device drivers to memory management. What You Will Learn Use kernel facilities to develop powerful drivers Develop drivers for widely used I2C and SPI devices and use the regmap API Write and support devicetree from within your drivers Program advanced drivers for network and frame buffer devices Delve into the Linux irqdomain API and write interrupt controller drivers Enhance your skills with regulator and PWM frameworks Develop measurement system drivers with IIO framework Get the best from memory management and the DMA subsystem Access and manage GPIO subsystems and develop GPIO controller drivers In Detail Linux kernel is a complex, portable, modular and widely used piece of software, running on around 80% of servers and embedded systems in more than half of devices throughout the World. Device drivers play a critical role in how well a Linux system performs. As Linux has turned out to be one of the most popular operating systems used, the interest in developing proprietary device drivers is also increasing steadily. This book will initially help you understand the basics of drivers as well as prepare for the long journey through the Linux Kernel. This book then covers drivers development based on various Linux subsystems such as memory management, PWM, RTC, IIO, IRQ management, and so on. The book also offers a practical approach on direct memory access and network device drivers. By the end of this book, you will be comfortable with the concept of device driver development and will be in a position to write any device driver from scratch using the latest kernel version (v4.13 at the time of writing this book).

About the Author

John Madieu is an embedded Linux and kernel engineer living in France, in Paris. His main activities consist of developing drivers and Board Support Packages (BSP) for companies in domains such as automation, transport, healthcare, energy, and the military. John works at EXPEMB, a French company that is a pioneer in electronical board design based on computer-on-module, and in embedded Linux solutions. He is an open source and embedded systems enthusiast, convinced that it is only by sharing knowledge that one learns more.

He is passionate about boxing, which he practised for 6 years professionally, and continues to transmit this passion through sessions of training that he provides voluntarily.

I would like to thank Devika Battike, Gebin George, and all the Packt team for their efforts to release this book on time. They are the people without whom this book would probably never have seen the light of day. It was a pleasure to work with them.
Finally, I would like to thank all the mentors I have had over the years, and who still continue to accompany me. Mentors such as Cyprien Pacme Nguefack for his programming skills that I have learned over the years, Jrme Pouillier and Christophe Nowicki for introducing me buildroot and leading me to kernel programming, Jean-Christian Rerat and Jean-Philippe DU-Teil of EXPEMB for their coaching and accompaniment in my professional career; to all those I could not mention, I wish to thank them for having transmitted these connoises to me, which I have tried to disseminate through this book.
About the Reviewer

Jrme Pouiller is a true geek and fascinated by understanding how things do work.

He was an early adopter of Linux. He found in Linux a system with no limits, where everything could be changed. Linux has provided an excellent platform to hack anything.

He graduated in machine learning at Ecole Pour lInformatique et les Technologies Avances (EPITA). Beside his studies, he learned electronics by himself. He quickly turned his attention to the piece of software at crossroad of all advanced systems: the operating system. It is now one of his favorite subjects.

For 15 years now, Jrme Pouiller has designed (and often debugged) Linux firmware for a variety of industries (multimedia, healthcare, nuclear, military).

In addition to his consulting activities, Jrme Pouiler is professor of operating systems at Institut National des Sciences Appliques (INSA). He has written many course materials about system programming, operating system design, realtime systems, and more.
