Embedded systems have become a cornerstone of modern technology, powering everything from IoT devices to automotive control systems. These specialized systems rely on software that is lightweight, ...

Configuration is the first step in building a kernel. There are many ways and various options to choose from. The kernel will generate a .config file at the end of the process and generate a series of ...

This course provides an introduction to Kernel programming for the Linux operating system, and the development of Linux kernel drivers for Embedded devices. The Yocto build system is introduced, which ...

The Linux kernel provides support for memory management, interprocess communication mechanisms, interrupt management, and TCP / IP networking. The directory structure separates architecture-dependent ...

Editor's Note: Embedded Linux has consistently ranked among the top operating systems used in embedded system design. With the rapid growth in interest in the Internet of Things (IoT), the ability of ...

The embedded computing universe includes computers of all sizes, from tiny portable devices--such as wristwatch cameras--to systems having thousands of nodes distributed worldwide, as is the case with ...

An announcement of the revival of linux-tiny, a set of patches aimed at reducing the footprint of the kernel, mainly for the embedded world, has led to a number of linux-kernel threads. The ...

Editor's Note: The embedded Linux kernel already play a vital role in embedded systems and stands to grow in importance in serving the diverse requirements of the Internet of Things (IoT). In turn, ...

The Linux operating system is set to become the de facto standard for "embedded" devices like robotics, information appliances and automobile information systems, but fragmentation could prove a ...

Embedded systems are getting a lot out of Linux. What has to happen to get patches back to the core kernel? In many ways, Andrew Morton’s keynote set the tone for this year’s Embedded Linux Conference ...
