INSTRUCTOR-LED COURSE


DEVELOPING EMBEDDED LINUX DEVICE DRIVERS (LFD435)

This instructor-led course is designed to show experienced programmers how to
develop device drivers for embedded Linux systems, and give them a basic
understanding and familiarity with the Linux kernel. Hands-on labs with a RISC-V
based emulated development target allow students to practice what is learned in
class.


4.0/5 Stars

Who Is It For

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This course is for experienced developers who need to develop device drivers for
embedded Linux systems.

What You’ll Learn

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Upon mastering this material, you 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.

Reviews
Jan 2022
I enjoyed learning from an industry expert. The nice book, friendly classmates,
and the classroom environment was very nice.
Jan 2022
Trainer's expertise. He was stressing more the importance of topics like device
trees.
Jan 2022
Instructor was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and conveyed
information extremely well. Course gave me a great baseline knowledge to work
with; I will need to practice on my own time to fully cement the lessons into my
head.
Nov 2021
Good coverage of all sorts of drivers and internals.
Nov 2021
I appreciated Tom's explanation of things. It is one thing to read about a
topic, but it definitely adds value to have somebody there with experience who
can help explain it, and point out things that are important, and things that
maybe aren't as much.
Nov 2021
The instructor was very engaging, and quite helpful during problematic labs. He
added to the material from his own experiences, which I personally value highly,
as it speaks to things that are real, vs examples that are contrived for the
purpose of an exercise.
Nov 2021
The way the lab Resources and Solutions (Lab) was implemented. Much of the time
that gets wasted in setting up the environment and writing make files was saved,
and we could focus on learning and developing drivers.
Nov 2021
Great class!
Nov 2021
Trainer's knowledge and style of communication.
Nov 2021
Observing the instructor using the tools.
Nov 2021
Practicing and the structure of the material, and of course Behan is a great
instructor.
Nov 2021
The details and expertise of the instructor.
Apr 2021
The instructor is obviously a professional, and he knew how to answer all our
questions perfectly. Moreover, the qemu emulations were great, it helped us a
lot.
Apr 2021
The instructor was excellent! The labs are also very good, and the course book
is well written as well.
Mar 2021
Instructor was great; went above and beyond by showing us examples in Linux that
were not in the material.
Mar 2021
Good amount of depth; nice to break up the lecture with so many labs.
