This appendix provides information for device driver writers who are converting their device drivers to support the 64-bit kernel. It presents the differences between 32-bit and 64-bit device drivers and describes the steps to convert 32-bit device drivers to 64-bit. This information is specific to regular character and block device drivers only.
This appendix provides information on the following subjects:
