這里提供給大家的是《Embedded Linux: Hardware, Software, and Interfacing》（嵌入式 Linux---硬件、軟件與接口）一書的英文原版CHM格式下載。
【作者簡介】
Craig Hollabaugh has been fascinated by electronics since he bought an AM radio in elementary school. He was first exposed to Unix during a cross-country talk session in 1985. Later, he administered networked Sun and DEC workstations while pursuing a doctoral degree in electrical engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology.
【內容提要】
本書通過一個冬季旅游勝地自動化管理項目實例，從軟件、硬件和接口的觀點介紹嵌入式Linux。引入項目需求后，作者講述了開發環境的建立，接著用一系列軟硬件接口實例展示了如何使用異步串行通信、PC并口、USB、內存I/O、同步串行通信以及中斷，等等。最后介紹了將前面所有的工作有機地組織在一起的系統集成過程。本書以實際應用為導向，書中整個項目的實施過程和軟硬件接口實例都具實踐指導意義。
In recent years, the UNIX operating system has seen a huge boost in its popularity, especially with the
emergence of Linux. For programmers and users of UNIX, this comes as no surprise: UNIX was designed to
provide an environment that s powerful yet easy to use.
One of the main strengths of UNIX is that it comes with a large collection of standard programs. These
programs perform a wide variety of tasks from listing your files to reading email. Unlike other operating
systems, one of the key features of UNIX is that these programs can be combined to perform complicated
tasks and solve your problems.
One of the most powerful standard programs available in UNIX is the shell. The shell is a program that
provides you with a consistent and easy-to-use environment for executing programs in UNIX. If you have
ever used a UNIX system, you have interacted with the shell.
Linux操作系統的不斷完善與發展，出現了大量基于 Linux平臺的應用開發，原有的基于UNIX平臺的商業軟件也不斷被移植到Linux上來。最典型的，Oracle公司宣布，他的現有的及未來所有的數據庫產品和商業應用都將支持Linux平臺。本文所述OCI for Linux的C語言庫，正是Linux平臺上Oracle的C語言接口。
In this book, you will learn about what drives the Linux development process. You will discover the wide
variety of tools commonly used by Linux developers – compilers, debuggers, Software Configuration
Management – and how those tools are used to build application software, tools, utilities and even the
Linux kernel itself. You will learn about the unique components of a Linux system that really set it apart
from other UNIX-like systems, and you will delve into the inner workings of the system in order to better
understand your role as one of a budding new generation of Linux developers.
