The Yocto Project has become the de facto distribution build framework for reliable and robust embedded systems with a reduced time to market.You'll get started by working on a build system where you set up Yocto, create a build directory, and learn how to debug it. Then, you'll explore everything about the BSP layer, from creating a custom layer to debugging device tree issues. In addition to this, you’ll learn how to add a new software layer, packages, data, scripts, and configuration files to your system. You will then cover topics based on application development, such as using the Software Development Kit and how to use the Yocto project in various development environments. Toward the end, you will learn how to debug, trace, and profile a running system. This second edition has been updated to include new content based on the latest Yocto release.

Embedded Linux now powers everything from IoT devices to industrial systems, making it essential for embedded software engineers to be skilled at customizing, deploying, and developing for these platforms. This hands-on guide walks you through the core concepts of Embedded Linux using practical, real-world examples on Raspberry Pi 4 and 5. For those without access to hardware, it also demonstrates how to simulate embedded Linux systems using QEMU.This book contains code samples that you can follow along and build three real-world projects: a Python web-based dashboard that retrieves and displays data from a temperature sensor and two GUI applications demonstrating how to use the Qt framework on Embedded Linux using two different development paradigms. You’ll also step into advanced territory with Linux kernel debugging techniques and discover how to harness eBPF, building the experience employers want and the confidence to tackle complex embedded challenges.By the end of this book, you'll have a solid grasp of Embedded Linux development and the skills to build and deploy production-ready, modern embedded applications.

Developing applications for embedded systems may seem like a daunting task as developers face challenges related to limited memory, high power consumption, and maintaining real-time responses. This book is a collection of practical examples to explain how to develop applications for embedded boards and overcome the challenges that you may encounter while developing.The book will start with an introduction to embedded systems and how to set up the development environment. By teaching you to build your first embedded application, the book will help you progress from the basics to more complex concepts, such as debugging, logging, and profiling. Moving ahead, you will learn how to use specialized memory and custom allocators. From here, you will delve into recipes that will teach you how to work with the C++ memory model, atomic variables, and synchronization. The book will then take you through recipes on inter-process communication, data serialization, and timers. Finally, you will cover topics such as error handling and guidelines for real-time systems and safety-critical systems.By the end of this book, you will have become proficient in building robust and secure embedded applications with C++.

Embedded Systems Architecture begins with a bird’s-eye view of embedded development and how it differs from the other systems that you may be familiar with. This book will help you get the hang of the internal working of various components in real-world systems.You’ll start by setting up a development environment and then move on to the core system architectural concepts, exploring system designs, boot-up mechanisms, and memory management. As you progress through the topics, you’ll explore the programming interface and device drivers to establish communication via TCP/IP and take measures to increase the security of IoT solutions. Finally, you’ll be introduced to multithreaded operating systems through the development of a scheduler and the use of hardware-assisted trusted execution mechanisms.With the help of this book, you will gain the confidence to work with embedded systems at an architectural level and become familiar with various aspects of embedded software development on microcontrollers—such as memory management, multithreading, and RTOS—an approach oriented to memory isolation.
