Book SynopsisGet up to speed with the most important concepts in driver development and focus on common embedded system requirements such as memory management, interrupt management, and locking mechanismsKey Features Write feature-rich and customized Linux device drivers for any character, SPI, and I2C device Develop a deep understanding of locking primitives, IRQ management, memory management, DMA, and so on Gain practical experience in the embedded side of Linux using GPIO, IIO, and input subsystems Book DescriptionLinux is by far the most-used kernel on embedded systems. Thanks to its subsystems, the Linux kernel supports almost all of the application fields in the industrial world. This updated second edition of Linux Device Driver Development is a comprehensive introduction to the Linux kernel world and the different subsystems that it is made of, and will be useful for embedded developers from any discipline.You'll learn how to configure, tailor, and build the Linux kernel. Filled with real-world examples, the book covers each of the most-used subsystems in the embedded domains such as GPIO, direct memory access, interrupt management, and I2C/SPI device drivers. This book will show you how Linux abstracts each device from a hardware point of view and how a device is bound to its driver(s). You'll also see how interrupts are propagated in the system as the book covers the interrupt processing mechanisms in-depth and describes every kernel structure and API involved. This new edition also addresses how not to write device drivers using user space libraries for GPIO clients, I2C, and SPI drivers.By the end of this Linux book, you'll be able to write device drivers for most of the embedded devices out there. What you will learn Download, configure, build, and tailor the Linux kernel Describe the hardware using a device tree Write feature-rich platform drivers and leverage I2C and SPI buses Get the most out of the new concurrency managed workqueue infrastructure Understand the Linux kernel timekeeping mechanism and use time-related APIs Use the regmap framework to factor the code and make it generic Offload CPU for memory copies using DMA Interact with the real world using GPIO, IIO, and input subsystems Who this book is forThis Linux OS book is for embedded system and embedded Linux enthusiasts/developers who want to get started with Linux kernel development and leverage its subsystems. Electronic hackers and hobbyists interested in Linux kernel development as well as anyone looking to interact with the platform using GPIO, IIO, and input subsystems will also find this book useful.Table of ContentsTable of Contents Introduction to Kernel Development Understanding Linux Kernel Module Basic Concepts Dealing with Kernel Core Helpers Writing Character Device Drivers Understanding and Leveraging the Device Tree Introduction to Devices, Drivers, and Platform Abstraction Understanding the Concept of Platform Devices and Drivers Writing I2C Device Drivers Writing SPI Device Drivers Understanding the Linux Kernel Memory Allocation Implementing Direct Memory Access (DMA) Support Abstracting Memory Access – Introduction to the Regmap API: a Register Map Abstraction Demystifying the Kernel IRQ Framework Introduction to the Linux Device Model Digging into the IIO Framework Getting the Most Out of the Pin Controller and GPIO Subsystems Leveraging the Linux Kernel Input Subsystem

Book SynopsisCSP notation has been used extensively for teaching and applying concurrency theory, ever since the publication of the text Communicating Sequential Processes by C.A.R. Hoare in 1985. Both a programming language and a specification language, the theory of CSP helps users to understand concurrent systems, and to decide whether a program meets its specification. As a member of the family of process algebras, the concepts of communication and interaction are presented in an algebraic style. An invaluable reference on the state of the art in CSP, Understanding Concurrent Systems also serves as a comprehensive introduction to the field, in addition to providing material for a number of more advanced courses. A first point of reference for anyone wanting to use CSP or learn about its theory, the book also introduces other views of concurrency, using CSP to model and explain these. The text is fully integrated with CSP-based tools such as FDR, and describes how to create new tools based on FDR. Most of the book relies on no theoretical background other than a basic knowledge of sets and sequences. Sophisticated mathematical arguments are avoided whenever possible. Topics and features: presents a comprehensive introduction to CSP; discusses the latest advances in CSP, covering topics of operational semantics, denotational models, finite observation models and infinite-behaviour models, and algebraic semantics; explores the practical application of CSP, including timed modelling, discrete modelling, parameterised verifications and the state explosion problem, and advanced topics in the use of FDR; examines the ability of CSP to describe and enable reasoning about parallel systems modelled in other paradigms; covers a broad variety of concurrent systems, including combinatorial, timed, priority-based, mobile, shared variable, statecharts, buffered and asynchronous systems; contains exercises and case studies to support the text; supplies further tools and information at the associated website: http://www.comlab.ox.ac.uk/ucs/. From undergraduate students of computer science in need of an introduction to the area, to researchers and practitioners desiring a more in-depth understanding of theory and practice of concurrent systems, this broad-ranging text/reference is essential reading for anyone interested in Hoare’s CSP.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews:“This book is divided into four parts … . Part I is designed for an audience of both undergraduate and graduate computer science students. … Part II is designed for people who are familiar with Part I and have fairly theoretical interests. … Part III is intended for people who … want to be able to use them in a better way, or who are specifically interested in timed systems. Part IV is designed for people who already understand CSP.” (Günther Bauer, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1211, 2011)Table of ContentsPart I: A Foundation Course in CSP Building a Simple Sequential Process Understanding CSP Parallel Operators CSP Case Studies Hiding and Renaming Beyond Traces Further Operators Using FDR Part II: Theory Operational Semantics Denotational Semantics and Behavioural Models Finite Observation Models Infinite-behaviour Models The Algebra of CSP Part III: Using CSP Timed Systems 1: tock-CSP Timed Systems 2: Discrete Timed CSP More About FDR State Explosion and Parameterised Verification Part IV: Exploring Concurrency Shared-variable Programs Understanding Shared-variable Concurrency Priority and Mobility
