Introduction to Linux Device Drivers (ILDD) - Portuguese Version

I'm proud to announce the first work released exclusively to adassumpcao.net!

Introduction to Linux Device Drivers is a course that introduces the basic principles of device driver development on the Linux kernel. This course is released under the Hands on the Kernel section and intends to provide the reader with the basic knowledge they need to develop the support for the vast majority of devices, introducing them to several tools and kernel sub-systems. Some of the hot topics are: the basic structure of a device driver, userspace communication , dynamic memory, asynchronous events, synchronization primitives and hardware communication.

This first version is written in Portuguese but I promise to release the English version very soon. You can read more about it here (English) or here (Portuguese).

Hope you like it!
