From the Back Cover: Part of a four-book set--SBus/SCSI Developer's Kit--SunOS™ 5.3 Writing Device Drivers describes how to develop SBus device drivers for character-oriented devices, block-oriented devices, and Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) target devices. It discusses the development of a dynamically loadable and unloadable, multithreaded reentrant device driver applicable to all SPARC architectures that conform to the Solaris 2.x SPARC DDI/DKI. An accompanying diskette contains PIO, SCSI target and block, Char DMA, STREAMS DLPI, mmap driver source code and other useful utilities. Covers the SunOS kernel; hardware issues related to device drivers; SunOS device drivers; multithreading mechanisms of the SunOS kernel; autoconfiguration support for drivers; interrupt handlers, including registering, servicing, and removing interrupts; DMA and DMA interface; drivers for character devices, block devices; SCSI target drivers; loading and unloading drivers; debugging. For UNIX programmers familiar with UNIX device drivers.
