Hi All,
I am conducting one workshop at FUDCon in which I am trying to teach how to write and send your first linux kernel device driver. Could please suggest me the place where I can guide the students to send the device driver?
once upon a time, i wrote an (admittedly-dated) online course on how to get started with kernel programming (and, yes, it needs updating :-P): http://crashcourse.ca/introduction-linux-kernel-programming/introduction-lin... ignore the $39 reference, the course has been publicly available for free for a while. on the second point -- how to *send* that driver to the kernel -- don't you kind of need a rationale for why you're working on a driver that isn't in the kernel already? i suspect that if you're already competent enough to be writing a driver for something that isn't in the kernel, you probably already know the protocol for submitting it, no? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
