iomega device drivers

1. Overview I have read Linux Device Drivers 3 (photocopy) (ldd3 for short) and I have forgotten about it. So I want to take a note of what I have read before, and focus on the comments and understanding of the Code. I am also a beginner in Linux kernel, so I will introduce every detail in the learning-driven process step by step. It is hoped that these blogs will help others, like me, find new entry in the

1.1 In object-oriented programming, the device driver core layer and examples can define a base class for a class of similar things, and specific things can inherit the functions in this base class. If the implementation of a function of the inherited object is the same as that of the base class, it can directly inherit the functions of the base class. On the contrary, it can be overloaded. This object-oriented design method greatly improves the code

transaction.The following is a method of using the struct with the C99 syntax, and the struct member that does not show the declaration is initialized to null by GCCstatic const struct File_operations Globalmem_fops = {. Owner = This_module,. Llseek = Globalmem_llseek,. Read = Globalmem_read,. write = Globalmem_write,. Unlocked_ioctl = globalmem_ioctl,/* in the kernel version of 2.6.x, in the file operation structure,Will have the IOCTL field, use Unlocked_ioctl in the higher version */. open =

Recently read a lot of kernel programming and drive development tutorials, also refer to some of the Development Board examples. The conclusion is not as high as you can imagine. Developing a driver requires a certain understanding of the kernel, not a thorough interpretation. The drivers referred to below are for specific devices and are made to work in dynamic loading of modules. The driver framework is layered, some

Get the kernel versionWhen the device driver needs to support different kernel versions at the same time, in the compilation phase, the kernel module needs to know the version of the currently used kernel source code to use the corresponding kernel API. In the 2.4 and 2.6 kernels, the source code header file linux/version. h is defined

are larger than one page. They must occupy the physical page of the connection, because the device uses ISA or PCI system Bus data transfer, both of which use physical addresses DIY Assignment The Get_free_pages function can allocate up to a few m bytes of memory, but for a larger number of requests. Even requests that are far less than 128KB generally fail because the system memory is full of memory fragmentation

the PCI system bus, both of which use physical addresses DIY Assignment The Get_free_pages function can allocate up to a few m bytes of memory, but for a larger number of requests, even requests that are much less than 128KB will typically fail because the system memory is full of memory fragmentation When the kernel cannot return the requested amount of memory or needs more than 128KB of memory, in addition to returning-enomem, another method is to allocate

Linux device driversOne, the role of device-drivenThe most popular explanation for device drivers is " Drive hardware Device Actions ". Drive and the underlying hardware directly to deal with, according to the specific work of the hardware

[Blog.csdn.net/lanmanck] Once upon a while, we found a job as a driver engineer, with a low monthly salary. The Code of people we have never touched cannot be understood at all. Today is good. If we do not want to pursue differentiation, we can allow the system to communicate with USB devices without drivers. Linux will not talk about it. libusb is very useful. Now we will talk about windows. Winusb is a kind of middleware similar to libusb and USB

Recently, I have been reading books and learning about Linux device drivers. I am getting started with the simplest character device drivers and can have a macro understanding of the driver framework and functions of various elements. The following is a detailed analysis of the dev
