Linux Kernel Programming Part 2 - Char Device Drivers and Kernel Synchronization

Create user-kernel interfaces, work with peripheral I/O, and handle hardware interrupts

af Kaiwan N Billimoria

This book follows on from Linux Kernel Programming, helping you explore the Linux character device driver framework and enables you to write 'misc' class drivers. You'll learn how to efficiently interface with user apps, perform I/O on hardware memory, handle hardware interrupts, and leverage kernel delays, timers, kthreads, and workqueues.
