+ <libsummary>Linked-in drivers in Enea OSE</libsummary>
+ <description>
+ <p>Writing Linked-in drivers that also work on Enea OSE is very similar for
+ how you would do it for Unix. The difference from Unix is that
+ driver_select, ready_input and ready_output all work with signals
+ instead of file descriptors. This means that the driver_select is
+ used to specify which type of signal should trigger calls to
+ ready_input/ready_output. The functions described below are available
+ to driver programmers on Enea OSE to facilitate this.
