Red Hat provides a robust and secure environment for developing and deploying device drivers on Linux systems. The distribution comes with a wide range of built-in tools and utilities that simplify the driver development process. Developers can easily access and modify the kernel source code, build...
Chapter 6. Advanced Char Driver Operations In Chapter 3, we built a complete device driver that the user can write to and read from. But a real device usually … - Selection from Linux Device Drivers, 3rd Edition [Book]
Linux Device Drivers, already a classic in its second edition, reveals information that heretofore has been shared by word of mouth or in cryptic source code comments, on how to write drivers for a wide range of devices. Version 2.4 of the Linux kernel includes significant changes to device ...
本质上,Device Tree改变了原来用code方式将HW配置信息嵌入到内核代码的方法,改用bootloader传递一个DB的形式。对于嵌入式系统,在系统启动阶段,bootloader会加载内核并将控制权转交给内核,此外,还需要把上述的三个参数信息传递给kernel,以便kernel可以有较大的灵活性。在linux kernel中,Device Tree的设计目标就是如此。
《Linux Device Drivers》 《essential Linux Device Drivers》 2. I/O体系结构 与外设的通信通常称之为输入输出(I/O),在实现外设的I/O时,内核必须处理3个可能出现问题的领域 1. 必须根据具体的设备类型和模型,使用各种方法对硬件寻址2. 内核必须向用户应用程序和系统工具提供访问各种设备的方法,并尽最大可能采...
DTS即Device Tree Source 设备树源码, Device Tree是一种描述硬件的数据结构,它起源于 OpenFirmware (OF)。 在Linux 2.6中,ARM架构的板极硬件细节过多地被硬编码在arch/arm/plat-xxx和arch/arm/mach-xxx,比如板上的platform设备、resource、i2c_board_info、spi_board_info以及各种硬件的platform_data,这些板级细...
首先配置一下I2C接口,根据原理图知道CS42L51连接到了STM32MP1的I2C4接口上,因此在设备树中的“i2c4”节点下需要添加cs42l51信息。打开Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/cs42l51.txt,此文件仅仅用于描述如何在I2C节点下添加cs41l51相关信息,此文档适用于所有的主控,不局限于STM32MP1。

Can you explain how device drivers interact with the Linux kernel? “Do you pine for the nice days of Minix-1.1, when men were men and wrote their own device drivers?” Linus Torvalds Pre-requisites In order to develop Linux device drivers, it is necessary to have an understanding of the...
