What is a device driver?
A device driver, or software driver is any computer program that allows other programs to interact with a computer hardware device, or else to work as if they are interacting with a particular device. In other words, a driver is an interface for communicating with the device, or emulates a device. A driver typically communicates with the device through the computer bus or communications subsystem that the hardware is connected to. When a program invokes a routine in the driver, the driver issues commands to the device, and when the device sends data, the driver invokes routines in the program.
Drivers are hardware-dependent and operating-system specific, and are commonly used in operating systems. They usually provide the interrupt handling required for any necessary asynchronous time-dependent hardware interfacing needs.
