Embedded Linux Conference Europe

Getting a new embedded linux device up and running is not easy. It involves debugging your software, which hasn't been tested yet, and the hardware at the same time, with no way to know which one is at fault. Software debugging techniques are well known in the community, but debugging techniques for hardware aren't. To goal of this talk is to give an overview of how to figure out whether the problem is hardware or software, to debug hardware in an efficient manner, to spot errors in the hardware design that weren't visible until the software has been considered and presenting a workflow with which most problems can be pinned down.
