商品描述

Build your own system firmware. This book helps you understand system firmware architecture and minimalistic design, and provides a specialized knowledge of firmware development.

The book includes guidance on understanding the system firmware build procedure, integrating pieces of firmware and allowing configuration, updating system firmware, creating a development infrastructure for allowing multi-party collaboration in firmware development, and gaining advanced system firmware debugging knowledge.

After reading the book you will be able to assume better control while developing your own firmware and know how to interact with native hardware while debugging. You will understand key principles for future firmware development using newer technology, and be ready for the introduction of modern safe programming languages for firmware development. Detailed system firmware development case studies using a futuristic approach cover:

  • Future scalable system firmware development models
  • Types of firmware development (system firmware, device firmware, manageability firmware)
  • Tools and their usage while creating system firmware
  • How to build infrastructure for seamless firmware development using a multi-party development model
  • Debugging methodologies used during various phases of firmware product development
  • Setting up key expectations for future firmware, including thinner firmware footprints and faster execution time, easier configuration, and increased transparent security

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What You Will Learn

  • Understand the system firmware working model of the future
  • Gain knowledge to say goodbye to proprietary firmware for different types of firmware development
  • Know the different types of tools required for creating firmware source code before flashing the final image into the boot device of the embedded system
  • Develop skills to understand the failure in firmware or in the system and prepare the debugging environment to root cause the defects
  • Discern the platform minimal security requirement
  • Optimize the system firmware boot time based on the target hardware requirement
  • Comprehend the product development cycle using open source firmware development

 

 

Who This Book Is For

Embedded firmware and software engineers migrating the product development from closed source firmware to open source firmware for product adaptation needs as well as engineers working for open source firmware development. A secondary audience includes engineers working on various bootloaders such as open source firmware, UEFI, and Slim Bootloader development, as well as undergraduate and graduate students working on developing firmware skill sets.

本書包括指導如何理解系統韌體建置程序,整合韌體組件並允許配置,更新系統韌體,建立開發基礎設施以實現多方協作的韌體開發,以及獲得高級系統韌體調試知識。

閱讀本書後,您將能夠在開發自己的韌體時更好地掌握控制,並且知道在調試時如何與本機硬體互動。您將了解使用新技術進行未來韌體開發的關鍵原則,並為引入現代安全的韌體開發編程語言做好準備。使用未來導向方法的詳細系統韌體開發案例研究包括:

- 未來可擴展的系統韌體開發模型
- 韌體開發的類型(系統韌體、設備韌體、可管理性韌體)
- 創建系統韌體時使用的工具及其用法
- 如何建立基礎設施以實現無縫韌體開發,使用多方開發模型
- 在韌體產品開發的各個階段使用的調試方法論
- 為未來韌體設定關鍵期望,包括更輕薄的韌體佔用空間和更快的執行時間,更容易的配置以及增加透明安全性

您將學到什麼:

- 理解未來的系統韌體工作模型
- 獲得知識,告別專有韌體,轉向不同類型韌體開發的開源韌體
- 了解在將最終映像燒錄到嵌入式系統的啟動設備之前,創建韌體源代碼所需的不同類型工具
- 開發技能,了解韌體或系統中的故障並準備調試環境以找出缺陷的根本原因
- 理解平台的最低安全要求
- 根據目標硬體需求優化系統韌體的啟動時間
- 理解使用開源韌體開發的產品開發週期

本書適合對產品開發從專有韌體轉向開源韌體的嵌入式韌體和軟體工程師,以及從事開源韌體開發的工程師。次要讀者包括從事各種引導程序開發(如開源韌體、UEFI和Slim Bootloader開發)的工程師,以及從事韌體技能培養的本科和研究生學生。
