ChorusOS 5.0 Features and Architecture Overview

Implemented Drivers

The ChorusOS device driver framework provides many drivers. Most of these drivers, unless stated otherwise, are generic, non-platform-specific drivers and can be used regardless of platform since they use either common bus driver interface or bus-specific (not platform-specific) services.

The following drivers are implemented in the ChorusOS operating system:
