Start to blog on Writing Device Driver

In the forthcoming months, I will blog on the following topics weekly:

* How to write a device driver
To illustrate the block/character device driver respectively, I'll also try to blog on:
 How to write a disk device driver
 How to write a NIC device driver

* How to make a driver 64-bit and FMA ready
 How to port a 32-bit device driver to amd64
 How to make the device driver support FMA

* RAID device driver abstract thoughts
 RAID framework for driver
    1. FMA
    2. RAID common operations
       a. Delete a node when create an array
       b. RAID specific commands

I would like a Solaris 10 X86 3ware 9000 series RAID controller driver. 3ware has released source drivers for Linux but nothing for Solaris

We also hope the 3ware could embrace the OpenSolaris to support in some manners, say, contribute the code or the datasheet. Do you have some good contact points who are interested to make this happen? If some, please feel free to let us know. It's really our best pleasure to be advocate in integrating 3ware's code or write a device driver based on the 3ware datasheet. On the other hand, it's really helpful to inform us the importance of 3ware 9000 series RAID controller driver. For instance, the applications based on these devices or the competitive situation at this area. We are open to hear your requests and try out best to satisfy.
