Webinar: Managing Devices with Linux Device Drivers

In this webinar we investigate the why and how of managing peripheral devices in an Arm-based embedded Linux system. Although this is a huge and complex subject area, we can still introduce some of the key concepts and start to appreciate the steps involved in writing a device driver.

The webinar covers the following topics:

• How devices are represented in the device-tree description
• The basic framework used for a Linux kernel device driver
• Fundamentals of device driver programming, including interrupt handling and memory allocation
• How devices can be managed from user-space and a comparison with kernel-based management
• Some of the tools and techniques available for debugging device drivers
• The webinar has been produced using NXP® based iMX SoCs - however the concepts are fully SoC independent.

We will also have a dedicated Q&A session at the end of the webinar.
