Driver Development in C Language

[dahbal]

Hi All,

I am doing job as Software Engineer(Quality).I work on testing of iSCSI and FC driver testing(HBA Driver testing).Start this job few months back.I want to move in development from Testing.For I want to learn the Driver Development in Linux OS or IBM AIX.I forgot C programming because I didn't do any programming (Coding).I want to learn Pointer in C first again and then Driver Development in C Language. Can anybody told me how to start Driver Development learning process from basics?

Is there any online books for C language(specially for Pointer in C),Driver Development explaining A-Z from start(I mean for beginners).

I will really appreciate if any jat bhai give me some guidence or help on Driver Development on Linux.

Thanks in advance.
