6.4 Execution Model

Device drivers running in the OSKit device driver framework use the interruptible, blocking execution model, defined in Section 2.5, and all of the constraints and considerations described in that section generally apply to OSKit device drivers. However, there are a few execution model issues specific to device drivers, which are dealt with here.
