Linux Device Driver Development Cookbook
This is the code repository for Linux Device Driver Development Cookbook, published by Packt.
Develop custom drivers for your embedded Linux applications
What is this book about?
Device drivers play a critical role in how the system performs and ensures that the device works in the intended way. With a recipe based approach this book gives you practical recipes on character drivers and related kernel internals. It shows you how to start writing Linux device drivers and tools to understand, debug or modify them.
This book covers the following exciting features:
- Become familiar with the latest kernel releases (4.19+/5.x) running on the ESPRESSObin devkit, an ARM 64-bit machine
- Download, configure, modify, and build kernel sources
- Add and remove a device driver or a module from the kernel
- Master kernel programming
- Understand how to implement character drivers to manage different kinds of computer peripheral
- Become well versed with kernel helper functions and objects that can be used to build kernel applications
- Acquire a knowledge of in-depth concepts to manage custom hardware with Linux from both the kernel and user space

Learn to develop customized device drivers for your embedded Linux system
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).

Linux Device Driver Development Cookbook
Over 30 recipes to develop custom drivers for your embedded Linux applications.
— Use Kernel facilities to develop powerful drivers
— Via a practical approach, learn core concepts of developing device drivers
— Program a custom character device to get access to kernel internals
Linux 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 used, the interest in developing proprietary device drivers has also increased. Device drivers play a critical role in how the system performs and ensures that the device works in the manner intended.
By offering several examples on the development of character devices and how to use other kernel internals, such as interrupts, kernel timers, and wait queue, as well as how to manage a device tree, you will be able to add proper management for custom peripherals to your embedded system. You will begin by installing the Linux kernel and then configuring it. Once you have installed the system, you will learn to use the different kernel features and the character drivers. You will also cover interrupts in-depth and how you can manage them. Later, you will get into the kernel internals required for developing applications. Next, you will implement advanced character drivers and also become an expert in writing important Linux device drivers.
By the end of the book, you will be able to easily write a custom character driver and kernel code as per your requirements.
What you will learn
— Become familiar with the latest kernel releases (4.19+/5.x) running on the ESPRESSObin devkit, an ARM 64-bit machine
— Download, configure, modify, and build kernel sources
— Add and remove a device driver or a module from the kernel
