hi,

In an ealier mail some one has sent a list of suggested reading for
device drivers(none of them are specific to FreeBSD). 

i found unix device drivers by george pajari very useful. the methodology
i followed is to read a chapter from that book and read the FreeBSD
sources for simillar devices. it has been very effective so far.after
reading this book you only need to know functions specific to BSD. 

manuals for deivce driver developement under solaris is available at
http://soldc.sun.com/developer/support/driver/docs/pubs.html

and the same for HP-UX is available at http://www.docs.hp.com/hpux/os/

incase you don't have the above book, you can use any of the above manuals
(i used HP doc and it is good)

there is an article on CAM SCSI drivers in the june issue of daemon
news(www.daemonnews.org). 

-Regards
