Linux Device Drivers
Fen Systems can develop a Linux device driver for your hardware. We have experience of developing drivers for gigabit and 10-gigabit Ethernet cards, USB peripherals, MTD (flash memory) devices and more.
If you are a hardware manufacturer wanting to add Linux support for your product, then outsourcing the initial driver development to us may be your fastest route to having a working driver. The driver will be licensed under the GNU General Public License, so you will have complete freedom to develop the driver further with or without our assistance. The typical cost for a driver development will be in the region of £10,000+VAT, with a timescale of one to two months. As with all our projects, the precise set of deliverables and the project schedule will be agreed in advance, as will the total cost. Please contact us to start discussions.
If you are a network card manufacturer, you may also be interested in developing a PXE driver.
We are also able to analyse problems with an existing driver that you have written. We have successfully characterised and diagnosed problems such as hardware interrupt race conditions and PCI-Express performance bottlenecks. Please contact us with details of your precise requirements.
