This is perhaps by far the most famous kernel driver book.
As of 2025 the latest version was quite old however, Linux Device Drivers book 3rd edition from 2005.
lwn.net/Kernel/LDD3/ contains the PDF of each chapter.
The book covers the Linux kernel version 2.6.10.
This repo has ported the kernels up to 5.10 as of writing. github.com/martinezjavier/ldd3/pull/86 attempts to go further into 6.x but has been ignored for two years unfortunately.
