Driver development in Android

[sudheerg]

Hi All,

I am newbie to android developement.
I previously worked on Wince driver development.

I want to start driver development for Android.

I have installed ubuntu, and got the git repository of Android, as per
the instructions given at the site http://source.android.com/download,
I am able to launch the emulator and also installed Eclipse.

However the notes published there indicate application development.
It will be easy for me to start, if someone can give some pointers to
start with the driver development for Android.


Thanks,
Sudheer

Hi Sudheer,

You can download the goldfish (this is the emulator version) kernel
from the following link (click the snapshot tab to get the kernel
source into your desired path)
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=kernel/common.git;a=tree;h=65bd5239eb2dba3024e5c3fd136a832b544c4783;hb=132305ed227e69bd7498c8a30d40a338a23a4afe

Make sure to build the goldfish kernel separately.

Regards,

Sudhi
