This comprehensive reference consists of two parts. The first describes the Device Driver Interface/Driver-Kernel Interface (DDI/DKI). The DDI/DKI is a mature interface between drivers and the rest of the kernel. Part two describes routines of the Portable-Device Interface (PDI). The PDI is a newer interface for block-oriented devices that emphasizes the separation of hardware-dependent and hardware-independent pieces of drivers.
