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. Free and open-source graphics device driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source...

   Nvidia's proprietary driver, Nvidia GeForce driver for GeForce, is available for Windows x86/x86-64, Linux x86/x86-64/ARM, OS X 10.5 and later, Solaris x86/x86-64 and FreeBSD x86/x86-64. A current version can be downloaded from the Internet, and some Linux distributions contain it in their repositories.

4. Mesa (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(computer_graphics)

   Graphics device drivers are implemented using two components: a UMD (user-mode driver) and a KMD (kernel-mode driver). Starting with Linux kernel 4.2 AMD Catalyst and Mesa will share the same Linux kernel driver: amdgpu. Amdgpu provides interfaces defined by DRM and KMS.

5. nouveau (software) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nouveau_(software)

   In the middle: the FOSS stack, composed out of DRM & KMS driver, libDRM and Mesa 3D.Right side: Proprietary drivers: Kernel BLOB and User-space components. nouveau (/ n uː ˈ v oʊ /) is a free and open-source graphics device driver for Nvidia video cards and the Tegra family of SoCs written by independent software engineers, with minor help from Nvidia employees.

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. Direct Rendering Manager - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Rendering_Manager

   In 2015, version 358.09 (beta) of the proprietary Nvidia GeForce driver received support for the DRM mode-setting interface implemented as a new kernel blob called nvidia-modeset.ko. This new driver component works in conjunction with the nvidia.ko kernel module to program the display engine (i.e. display controller) of the GPU. [197]

8. Mode setting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_setting

   As Nvidia did not release all the needed documentation for its graphics chip, development proceeded under the nouveau project, which uses reverse engineering to build a working open-source driver for Nvidia cards. Nouveau was accepted in version 2.6.33 of the kernel, released on December 10, 2009.

9. Windows Display Driver Model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Display_Driver_Model

   Windows 10 includes WDDM 2.0, which is designed to dramatically reduce workload on the kernel-mode driver for GPUs that support virtual memory addressing, [37] to allow multithreading parallelism in the user-mode driver and result in lower CPU utilization.
