Jonathan Corbet got his first look at the BSD Unix source back in 1981, when an instructor at the University of Colorado let him "fix" the paging algorithm. He has been digging around inside every system he could get his hands on ever since, working on drivers for VAX, Sun, Ardent, and x86 systems on the way. He got his first Linux system in 1993, and has never looked back. Mr. Corbet is currently the co-founder and executive editor of Linux Weekly News (http://LWN.net/); he lives in Boulder, Colorado with his wife and two children.
Alessandro installed Linux 0.99.14 soon after getting his degree as electronic engineer. He then received a Ph.D. in computer science at the University of Pavia despite his aversion toward modern technology. He left the University after getting his Ph.D. because he didn't want to write articles. He now works as a free lancer writing device drivers and, um...articles. He used to be a young hacker before his babies were born; he's now an old advocate of Free Software who developed a bias for non-PC computer platforms.
Greg Kroah-Hartman has been writing Linux kernel drivers since 1999, and is currently the maintainer for the USB, PCI, I2C, driver core, and sysfs kernel subsystems. He is also the maintainer of the udev and hotplug userspace programs, as well as being a Gentoo kernel maintainer, ensuring that his email inbox is never empty. He is a contributing editor to Linux Journal Magazine, and works for IBM's Linux Technology Center, doing various Linux kernel related tasks.
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.
第一次阅读。2012年3月8日读完,历时一个月。 书本的开篇就说,Linux内核很复杂很庞大,入门较难,但是驱动程序是进入到Linux内核世界的大门。不过我看完之后没有这个感觉,只是觉得每一章都会涉及到很多内核的内容,并不会知道内核总体来说到底是怎么样的。 开始接触驱动程...
评分本书是针对那些想在Linux操作系统下支持计算机外设或者是想在Linux下开发并运行新硬件的人而写的。Linux是UNIX市场中份额增长最快的操作系统,在许多应用领域中赢得了众多热心的追随者。本书展示了迄今为止流传于口头上的或隐含在源代码评注背后的信息,并引导您为众多的设备编...
评分涉及的东西太多,深度又不够,事实上逻辑条理性也不怎么好。但是linux设备驱动相关的书籍,好赖都只有这一本,没办法,必读的。
评分手头有两本,一本原版的,一本中译的。阅读原版的冲动屡屡受到my pool English的打击,所以特别感谢热心人整出来的中译本,都是熟悉的方块字,翻起顺手多了,呵呵。鄙人期间花了不少精力,在研究其中式表达想要说明的东东,但是这样也好,多花点时间没坏处,有助于深刻理解。这...
评分怀着无比朝圣即对经典的憧憬的精神开始看这本书学习Linux驱动,当看到这本书只要求读者熟悉C语言编程及拥有Unix的使用经验就无比的兴奋以为自己将能够顺利地完成学习目标。但是,想的太天真了。书的内容没有循序渐进,一上来就给你讲一些比较专业的东西但是又没有介绍细节背景...
