[09:36] schestowitz[09:36] schestowitzToday I would like to show you the implementation of the first userspace driver for Helios: a simple serial driver. All of the code were going to look at today runs in userspace, not in the kernel, so strictly speaking this should be notes from OS hacking in Hare, but I wont snitch if you dont.

[09:39] schestowitz[09:39] schestowitzThe Arduino Nano has 20 available digital I/O pins and Trevor needed two of them for a serial connection. That left 18 pins, which is enough for the three cathodes for each of the six RGB LED strips. If all he wanted to do was set each strip to a single full-brightness color, then this would be straightforward. But what if he wants something more complex, such as brightness adjustment of each channel to [09:39] schestowitz achieve more granular color mixing?
