Driver Model Types: A Short Description.
(Note: This is NOT a complete description of a layer,
according to the kernel layered model I dared to offer. It
concerns only the hardware drivers in a kernel.)
Looks like you're going to need to get a little deeper to keep it from
being OT on this list.
What is the driver designs of say, solaris, OS/2, Win32 (NT & 9x trees)
and how are they good and how are they bad?
What specific (think API changes, nothing generalized here *at all*)
changes could benefit linux, and why and how? Nobody will listen to
hand waving, so you need a tight case for each change.
HTH,
Mike
