Embedded Linux

Course Objectives

  • Configure and build uBoot, add new commands and drivers to uBoot
  • Use a cross compiler chain to configure and build the Linux kernel
  • Configure and build the Linux Root FileSystem using BusyBox
  • Download the embedded system to the target
  • Access to the target from a workstation for debugging
  • Use a real life target like a phone with embedded Linux Neo FreeRunner, a PC104 or ATMEL 9260 development board.


Programme

Day 1

Introduction to Embedded linux

  • The tools, GCC compiler, binutils, uBoot, scratchbox, qemu
  • Linux kernel source tree, BusyBox, GUI, multimedia libraries, network.
  • a deeper look at uBoot, the source tree, adding commands and drivers
  • Case study Gathering the tools, learn to use scratchbox and qemu, add a command to uBoot

Day 2

Linux Kernel

  • The Linux source tree, Linux BSP, Linux drivers and the Linux drivers framework. The Linux kernel tools, synchronization, scheduling and memory managment.
  • Case study Configure the kernel for the target, compile the kernel, build an embedded image for uBoot. Load uBoot, load Linux from uBoot

Day 3

Linux RootFS

  • The RootFS tree, starting the applications. The tools to buils the RootFS, BusyBox, BuildRoot, adding new libraries and applications with scratchbox.
  • Case study: Build a RootFS and a simple application using scratchbox and download it to the target.

day 4

Graphical Interface and Multimedia

  • The graphical interface libraries,audio and video libraries Associated kernel drivers, Video4Linux and Alsa.
  • The different distributions, Debian, Android, Openmoko ...
  • Case Study: Use android, compile the graphical interface and download it on the target. (NEO FreeRunner phone)

Day 5

optimisations

  • Power management with linux, communicating with an internal modem, Real time and real time hypervisors.
  • Case study: Modify a driver to add power management and use APM to manage it.


Who Should Attend

Software engeneers and field engeneers who will be using or building embedded Linux systems.
