Currently Playing: Workshop: My First Kernel Driver - Hans de Goede, Red Hat

Don't miss out! Join us at the next Open Source Summit in Seoul, South Korea (November 4-5). Join us at the premier vendor-neutral open source conference, where developers and technologists come together to collaborate, share knowledge, and explore the latest innovations and advancements in open source technology. Learn more at https://events.linuxfoundation.org/ Workshop: My First Kernel Driver - Hans de Goede, Red Hat Attendees will be given an USB (ch341t) to qwiic converter + a qwiic sht40 temperature/humidity sensor. A github repo with preparation instructions + a ready-to-build driver to instantiate an i2c-device/-client for the sensor will be provided. The goal of the workshop is for attendees to write their own (very simple) kernel driver for the sensor offering sysfs attributes providing temperature and humidity readings. Example code snippets of a skeleton i2c-driver and example communication code will be provided to make it possible to write a simple driver in 2 hours. Attendees will be expected to know the C-programming language at an intermediate (or better) level.
