2. Kernel-Mode Driver Framework - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel-Mode_Driver_Framework

   The Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) is a driver framework developed by Microsoft as a tool to aid driver developers create and maintain kernel mode device drivers for Windows 2000 [a] and later releases. It is one of the frameworks included in the Windows Driver Frameworks. [1]

3. User-Mode Driver Framework - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User-Mode_Driver_Framework

   Badly written device drivers can cause severe damage to a system (e.g., BSoD or data corruption) since all standard drivers have high privileges when accessing the kernel directly. The User-Mode Driver Framework insulates the kernel from the problems of direct driver access, instead providing a new class of driver with a dedicated application ...

4. Windows Driver Model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Driver_Model

   With the Windows Drivers Model (WDM) for devices Microsoft implements an approach to kernel mode drivers that is unique to Windows operating systems. WDM implements a layered architecture for device drivers, and every device of a computer is served by a stack of drivers. However, every driver in that stack can chain isolate hardware-independent ...

5. Device driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Device_driver

   The Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) model continues to allow development of kernel-mode device drivers but attempts to provide standard implementations of functions that are known to cause problems, including cancellation of I/O operations, power management, and plug-and-play device support.

6. Windows Driver Frameworks - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Driver_Frameworks

   It complements Windows Driver Model, abstracting away much of the boilerplate complexity in writing Windows drivers. WDF consists of Kernel-Mode Driver Framework (KMDF) and User-Mode Driver Framework (UMDF). [2] These individual frameworks provide a new object-oriented programming model for Windows driver development.

7. Unidrv - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unidrv

   UniDrv (Universal Printer Driver or Unidriver) is a GDI-based Microsoft Windows universal printer driver and architecture for non-PostScript printers. It is used to simplify driver development of non-PostScript printers (also called Winprinters) for printer manufacturers. Unidrv allows the creation of a printer-specific minidriver in the form ...
