Right, but
I answered your initial question. This one:
what is the advantage of STREAMS (besides the modularity and
stackability)? The BSDs and Linux seem to be happy enough
has more to do with the history of unix, System V vs BSD, etc. My

The driver (yet unwritten) does approximately the same as the qotd sample
driver from the "Device Driver Tutorial" book - giving data stored in
kernel memory to userspace and nothing more.
If it's a simple driver not related to terminal/serial subsystem, you
most likely want a character driv
Ok, sorry for my english, you are misunderstand me.
My question is very simple:
Whether is at Solaris what or a free-of-charge opportunity to receive updating?

Hello,
while writing a pseudo device driver, eventually the question came up on
myself whether it would be meaningful or necessary to make it a streams
driver or just simply a character-based one.
The driver (yet unwritten) does approximately the same as the qotd sample
driver from the "Device
