This book provides a unified, coordinated path for embedded developers starting out in embedded Linux programming. It takes a tutorial-style approach, and is unique in using the DS-5 Integrated Development Environment (IDE), matched with ARM's architecture, to create a complete guide from installation to developing simple applications. Through clear, concise and accessible explanation and examples, this book kick starts embedded Linux development in the most practical way possible.

With this book you will learn:

* What embedded Linux can do for you, and how to achieve particular development goals

* How to set up and install the development environment

* The very basics of embedded Linux, starting with toggling I/O pins

* How to use the Linux command line to perform basic tasks

* How to debug code

* Profiling and performance tuning

* How to use TCP/IP and USB interfaces in Linux.
