Developing Embedded Linux Device Drivers (LFD435)
Duration
4 Days
Course
LNX-LFD435
Available Formats
Classroom Training, Online Training
Course Description
Overview
Develop device drivers for embedded Linux systems—gain essential knowledge of the Linux kernel through hands-on labs with RISC-V-based emulated development targets. This course empowers experienced programmers to build and refine device drivers with practical, real-world experience.This course will prepare you to develop device drivers for embedded Linux systems.
This course includes:
- Live Online (Virtual)
- 4 days of Instructor-led class time
- Hands-on Labs & Assignments
- Resources & Course Manual
- Certificate of Completion
- Digital Badge
Objectives
Upon mastering this material, students will be familiar with the different kinds of device drivers used under Linux, and have an introduction to many of the appropriate APIs to be used when writing a device driver. The labs for illustrating these concepts will all be performed on ARM hardware in order to get developers familiar with cross-compiling and developing drivers for an embedded target.
Audience
This course is for experienced developers who need to develop device drivers for embedded Linux systems.
