Hi all,
I would like to share a new book on linux usb.
Title: Bootstrap Yourself with Linux-USB Stack: Design, Develop, Debug, and
Validate Embedded USB Systems
About the book
============
USB is one of the leading interconnect with over billion devices using USB as
the key component in the PC/User and device connectivity. These devices vary
from consumer devices like a camera or mobile phone to networking devices like
router or even a medical device or a car navigation system. In the recent past
and in the future platforms (like android, Meego) based on Linux will emerge
and
penetrate into these market exponentially. This means most of the USB devices
start adopting these Linux based platform. Thus USB and Linux have become an
unavoidable factor and a key component in many embedded systems.
What You’ll Find in This Book
========================
This book discusses the internal interface application programming interfaces
(APIs) and data structures of the USB stack and offers practical examples of
how
Linux USB modules interface within the Linux system.
* Linux is becoming the de facto standard for students to
train and explore. This book is a practical guide book to exploring Linux USB.
* This book explains a platform developer's perspective of
Linux USB drivers: the gadget driver for a USB device and the host controller
driver development for a host.
* You will find topics that enhance your understanding of
user mode programming of the Linux USB framework and easy methods to use it
with
USB devices.
* You can find methods to test and debug USB devices and
exclusive tools along with the book for USB device/platform testing.
Who This Book Is For
================
This book is for students interested in exploring the emerging embedded Linux
market and Linux internals. The book teaches them Linux USB internals and
enables them to complete a project based on the Linux USB subsystem. The book
also furthers their understanding of software stack design by exposing the
blocks, interfaces, and data structures of the Linux USB system.
This book is also for engineers who take up Linux-USB development. In the
industry, the trend while assigning jobs is creating module owners and module
experts. It is common to move them to different modules.
Finally, this book is for managers of the Linux platform who want to know the
features or analyze the complexity of the Linux USB. This book’s visual
representations act as a definite bootstrap session.
Thanks,
Vishnu
