| # Getting Started |
| |
| Writing a device driver is often viewed as a daunting task, fraught with complexities |
| and requiring arcane knowledge of little-known kernel secrets. |
| |
| The goal of this section is to demystify the process; you'll learn everything you |
| need to know about how to write device drivers, starting with what they do, how |
| they work, and how they fit into the overall system. |
| |
| List of documents to get started - |
| |
| * [Fuchsia Driver Framework][fdf] - Overview of driver manager and driver host |
| * [Fuchsia drivers][fuchsia-drivers-overview] - Overview of fuchsia driver model. |
| * [Device and driver model][device-driver-model] - Documents that explain device and driver model |
| * [Driver development][driver-development] - Documents related to interrupts, DMA and other concepts |
| for developing drivers |
| * [Driver architectures][driver-architectures] - Documents related to architecture of specfic driver |
| types |
| |
| The sections are listed above in default reading order, but it's perfectly fine to jump around and |
| read them in order of interest or applicability. |
