The Linux Device Driver book (ldd3) is outdated, as Linux kernel ABI changes constantly, although I would still recommend the book as good starting point. Martinez Javier started to port the source code examples to the actual Kernel versions. I'm not sure about the actual status of the work, but I vaguely remember that I tried to use the block device driver some month ago. It compiled without any warning but crashed when used. Maybe you want to dig in the example code and see if you can find and resolve some issues. https://github.com/martinezjavier/ldd3 Regards, Matthias > > > Thanks, > Suraj > > _______________________________________________ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > <mailto:Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies > > Hello Suraj, > I would suggest complete reading the book with the examples given in > the book. > > Regards, > Rohan Puri > > _______________________________________________ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies > > > > > -- > Regards, > > Prajosh Premdas > > > > _______________________________________________ > Kernelnewbies mailing list > Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies -- --- http://motzblog.wordpress.com/ _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
