Guidelines for all kernel drivers

Guidelines for all kernel drivers

These guidelines are suggestions to improve the robustness, performance, and maintainability of a driver. We strongly recommend that drivers to be run on SCO systems adhere to these guidelines. Some of these guidelines include pointers to other portions of the documentation that contain more detailed information.

These guidelines pertain to both DDI drivers written for SVR5 and ODDI drivers written for SCO OpenServer 5 unless the text specifies that it applies to only one platform. See ``DDI interface versioning'' and ``ODDI driver interface version for SCO OpenServer 5''.

Guidelines that supplement this information are available for specific driver interfaces:
