Embedded Linux Programming: Master Device Drivers, Kernel Customization, and Real-Time ApplicationsLearn to Design, Build, and Deploy Robust Embedd
Master the Complete Embedded Linux Development Stack—From Bootloader to Production Deployment
Are you struggling to bridge the gap between basic Linux knowledge and production-ready embedded systems? Do kernel panics, device driver mysteries, and real-time requirements leave you searching through fragmented documentation? You're not alone. Most embedded developers waste months piecing together scattered tutorials, outdated forum posts, and incomplete guides—only to deploy systems that crash under load or fail regulatory compliance.
What if you could compress years of trial-and-error into a single, comprehensive reference?
Embedded Linux Programming eliminates the guesswork from embedded development. This isn't another superficial overview or academic theory dump. This is the battle-tested, no-nonsense technical guide that takes you from cross-compilation basics to production-grade industrial systems—with complete working code, real hardware examples, and troubleshooting strategies forged in actual deployments.
Why This Book Delivers What Others Don't
Most embedded Linux books fall into two traps: They either skim the surface with "hello world" examples that leave you stranded when real problems hit, or they drown you in kernel internals without showing you how to actually build anything.
This book demolishes that false choice.
You'll start by building a complete bootable system from scratch—not copying pre-built images, but understanding every byte from power-on to login prompt. You'll compile U-Boot with secure boot verification, build custom kernels optimized for your exact hardware, and create root filesystems that survive power failures and flash wear.
Then you'll go deeper. Much deeper.
Master device driver development with complete character, block, and network driver implementations. Learn platform device integration, DMA transfers, interrupt handling, and power management—all demonstrated on real ARM hardware (BeagleBone Black, Raspberry Pi, i.MX6). No abstract theory. Every concept proven with code that actually runs.
Conquer real-time Linux with PREEMPT_RT patch integration, deterministic scheduling, and latency optimization techniques that achieve microsecond-level response times. You'll measure, profile, and tune systems until they meet hard real-time guarantees.
Navigate industrial protocols including Modbus, CAN bus, EtherCAT, and OPC UA—with complete server and client implementations ready for manufacturing floors, automotive systems, and industrial automation.
Deploy production systems with comprehensive security hardening (SELinux policies, verified boot, encrypted storage), OTA update mechanisms, system monitoring, and the troubleshooting procedures that separate working prototypes from shipped products.
What You'll Build
✅ Custom bootloaders with secure boot chains and verified kernel loading
✅ Kernel configurations optimized from 200MB generic distributions down to 8MB embedded systems
✅ Device drivers for GPIO, I2C, SPI, UART, and custom hardware
✅ Real-time control systems with guaranteed microsecond latency
✅ Industrial IoT gateways bridging Modbus RTU to MQTT cloud platforms
✅ Medical device prototypes meeting regulatory documentation requirements
✅ Network protocol stacks with TCP/IP tuning and secure TLS servers and many more
Every chapter includes complete, tested source code—no "fill in the blanks" exercises.
