Embedded Linux runs many of the devices we use every day, from smart TVs to WiFi routers, test equipment to industrial controllers - all of them have Linux at their heart. Linux is a core technology in the implementation of the inter-connected world of the Internet of Things.



The comprehensive guide shows you the technologies and techniques required to build Linux into embedded systems. You will begin by learning about the fundamental elements that underpin all embedded Linux projects: the toolchain, the bootloader, the kernel, and the root filesystem. You’ll see how to create each of these elements from scratch, and how to automate the process using Buildroot and the Yocto Project.



Moving on, you’ll find out how to implement an effective storage strategy for flash memory chips, and how to install updates to the device remotely once it is deployed. You’ll also get to know the key aspects of writing code for embedded Linux, such as how to access hardware from applications, the implications of writing multi-threaded code, and techniques to manage memory in an efficient way. The final chapters show you how to debug your code, both in applications and in the Linux kernel, and how to profile the system so that you can look out for performance bottlenecks.



By the end of the book, you will have a complete overview of the steps required to create a successful embedded Linux system.]]> 478 Chris Simmonds 1787283283 Mohamed 0 to-read 4.22

عندما صعد الأديب الشاب خالد عبد الدايم إلى قطار القاهرة �� أسوان؛ لم يكن يدرك أنه لن يستطيع خطّ حرفٍ واحد في روايته الجديدة التي خصص وقت الرحلة للعمل عليها.. كان مُقدّرًا له أن يلتقي شخصًا غامضًا سيقص عليه قصة خالد محفوظ ويطلب منه أن يكتبها لسبب لم يفصح عنه.. سيعترض في البداية لكنه لن يلبث أن يتسمّر في مقعده عندما تستغرقه الأحداث المذهلة التي تُروى على مسامعه، ولن يملك سوى أن يتساءل : هل القصة التي تُروى له هي في الحقيقة قصته التي لم يشهدها ؟

تجربة روحية فريدة، تنتقل بنا ما بين الواقع والحلم عبر ثلاث قارات، أثناء سعي بطلها لإيجاد سلامه النفسي المفقود.]]> 366 أحمد عبد المجيد Mohamed 5 currently-reading 3.92 2013

This book will initially help you understand the basics of drivers as well as prepare for the long journey through the Linux Kernel. This book then covers drivers development based on various Linux subsystems such as memory management, PWM, RTC, IIO, IRQ management, and so on. The book also offers a practical approach on direct memory access and network device drivers.

By the end of this book, you will be comfortable with the concept of device driver development and will be in a position to write any device driver from scratch using the latest kernel version (v4.13 at the time of writing this book).

What you will learnUse kernel facilities to develop powerful driversDevelop drivers for widely used I2C and SPI devices and use the regmap APIWrite and support devicetree from within your driversProgram advanced drivers for network and frame buffer devicesDelve into the Linux irqdomain API and write interrupt controller driversEnhance your skills with regulator and PWM frameworksDevelop measurement system drivers with IIO frameworkGet the best from memory management and the DMA subsystemAccess and manage GPIO subsystems and develop GPIO controller driversAbout the AuthorJohn Madieu is an embedded Linux and kernel engineer living in France, in Paris. His main activities consist of developing drivers and Board Support Packages (BSP) for companies in domains such as automation, transport, healthcare, energy, and the military. John works at EXPEMB, a French company that is a pioneer in electronical board design based on computer-on-module, and in embedded Linux solutions. He is an open source and embedded systems enthusiast, convinced that it is only by sharing knowledge that one learns more.

He is passionate about boxing, which he practised for 6 years professionally, and continues to transmit this passion through sessions of training that he provides voluntarily.

Years of writing, diagramming, piloting and editing have culminated in one easy-to-read volume that contains all of the basic principles of computers written so that everyone can understand them.

There used to be only two types of book that delved into the insides of computers. The simple ones point out the major parts and describe their functions in broad general terms. Computer Science textbooks eventually tell the whole story, but along the way, they include every detail that an engineer could conceivably ever need to know.

Like Baby Bear's porridge, 'But How Do It Know?' is just right, but it is much more than just a happy medium. For the first time, this book thoroughly demonstrates each of the basic principles that have been used in every computer ever built, while at the same time showing the integral role that codes play in everything that computers are able to do.

It cuts through all of the electronics and mathematics, and gets right to practical matters. Here is a simple part, see what it does. Connect a few of these together and you get a new part that does another simple thing. After just a few iterations of connecting up simple parts - voilà! - it's a computer. And it is much simpler than anyone ever imagined.

'But How Do It Know?' really explains how computers work. They are far simpler than anyone has ever permitted you to believe. It contains everything you need to know, and nothing you don't need to know. No technical background of any kind is required.

The basic principles of computers have not changed one iota since they were invented in the mid 20th century. "Since the day I learned how computers work, it always felt like I knew a giant secret, but couldn't tell anyone," says the author. Now he's taken the time to explain it in such a manner that anyone can have that same moment of enlightenment and thereafter see computers in an entirely new light.]]> 221 J.

And yet a concern for architecture and design is too often described as frivolous, even self-indulgent. The Architecture of Happiness starts from the idea that where we are heavily influences who we can be, and it argues that it is architecture's task to stand as an eloquent reminder of our full potential.

Whereas many architects are wary of openly discussing the word beauty, this book has at its center the large and naïve question: What is a beautiful building? It is a tour through the philosophy and psychology of architecture that aims to change the way we think about our homes, our streets and ourselves.]]> 288 Alain de Botton 0375424431 Mohamed 0 to-read 3.85 2006
