Product Details
- Device drivers literally drive everything you're interested in--disks, monitors, keyboards, modems--everything outside the computer chip and memory. And writing device drivers is one of the few areas of programming for the Linux operating system that calls for unique, Linux-specific knowledge. For years now, programmers have relied on the classic Linux Device Drivers from O'Reilly to master this critical subject. Now in its third edition, this bestselling guide provides all the information you'll need to write drivers for a wide range of devices. Over the years the book has helped countless programmers learn: how to support computer peripherals under the Linux operating system how to develop and write software for new hardware under Linux the basics of Linux operation even if they are not expecting to write a driver The new edition of Linux Device Drivers is better than ever. The book covers all the significant changes to Version 2.6 of the Linux kernel, which simplifies many activities, and contains subtle new features that can make a driver both more efficient and more flexible. Readers will find new chapters on important types of drivers not covered previously, such as consoles, USB drivers, and more. Best of all, you don't have to be a kernel hacker to understand and enjoy this book. All you need is an understanding of the C programming language and some background in Unix system calls. And for maximum ease-of-use, the book uses full-featured examples that you can compile and run without special hardware. Today Linux holds fast as the most rapidly growing segment of the computer market and continues to win over enthusiastic adherents in many application areas. With this increasing support, Linux is now absolutely mainstream, and viewed as a solid platform for embedded systems. If you're writing device drivers, you'll want this book. In fact, you'll wonder how drivers are ever written without it.

Networking & System Administration Editorial Review
The "Linux Device Drivers, 3rd Edition" is a valuable resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of the Linux kernel and device drivers. Despite being based on the 2.6 kernel version, much of the information is still relevant according to users. The book is well-written and provides essential knowledge for anyone working with device drivers. While some users found the book to be outdated and lacking in modern kernel information, they still acknowledged its significance as a key reference for driver development. The book is detailed, sometimes excessively so, and could benefit from a more streamlined approach and an update to reflect current technologies and practices. Users also noted the absence of coverage on I2C drivers, which was deemed disappointing. Overall, the "Linux Device Drivers, 3rd Edition" remains a valuable resource for developers working on device drivers, despite its dated content. It is seen as a comprehensive guide to understanding kernel fundamentals, but users expressed a desire for a more current and concise 4th edition. **
