He's arguing most drivers are mostly event driven --- which is true, trivially.


Nowhere did he argue that. What he actually argued--poorly and offensively--is that it's "pretty obvious" that bronson has no experience writing Linux hardware drivers.

That's remarkable, since his comment says nothing about events.

Still, it sounds like you're saying that Linux drivers are more than glorified do loops spinning on IRQs, right? If so, then I guess we agree.
