Online On-demand – Linux Device Driver Programming

Sandeepani is the training division of CoreEL Technologies (I) Pvt Ltd and Authorized Training Provider
for AMD-Xilinx in India

Course Description:
This course is designed to build a strong foundation for Linux device driver programming. It is a hands-on
practical guide to device driver programming with in depth understanding of critical concepts like
concurrency in kernel code and kernel memory management.

Who should attend?


 Anyone interested in exploring kernel device drivers from software development perspective

Pre-requisites:
 General understanding of operating systems
 Comfortable with C programming
 Comfortable with Linux command line environment

Access:
 Login and password will be shared within 1 business day after payment and registration
 Content will be made available for 1 month from start of access

Software development environment:


 Linux distribution with kernel > 4.0

What do I gain?
After completing this comprehensive training, you will have the necessary skills to:
 Distinguish between Linux kernel programming vs application programming
 Understanding of Linux kernel device driver frameworks
 Ability to implement and test device driver modules in Linux
 Understanding of various mechanisms like concurrency tools, memory management in kernel
space

Course Contents
 Kernel programming vs application programming
 Kernel Symbol table, module init and shutdown, module parameters, printk, log levels, role of
device driver, types of device driver, dmesg
 Kernel build system, module build, modprobe, insmod, lsmod, rmmod
 Lab – Write, build, load and use a simple kernel module - ‘Hello world’
 char device driver- device number - char device registration, open and release
 Lab – implement a simple char driver – register device number, map driver to device, use driver to
invoke device
 Memory allocation in kernel
 Lab – Use kmalloc() to allocate memory for char device driver, implement and test read/write
functions for the driver
