Linux Device Drivers – Course Materials
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.
Let us make the device come into life in the world of Penguin 🙂
