Linux Device Drivers are software components that enable the interaction between the hardware and the operating system. These drivers allow the kernel to communicate with various devices connected to a computer, such as printers, network adapters, and storage devices. A device driver provides an interface for the kernel to control the device’s behavior, configure its settings, and send / receive data from it. Linux Device Drivers are typically written in the C programming language and require a thorough understanding of the hardware architecture and device specifications. Our Linux Device Driver course takes a hands-on approach to enable participants to create a driver on their own.
