Microkernel drivers
If microkernels do not load drivers into the kernel, does mean that the drivers are daemons that run in user space, or are there some other provision for drivers?
I know it may sound a bit elementary but I'm not certain and I want to clear it up. Thanks in advance.

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS

i2bsc

bscv(7D)							      Devices								  bscv(7D)

NAME

       bscv, bscbus, i2bsc - Blade support chip interface driver

DESCRIPTION

       The  bscv,  bscbus  and	i2bsc drivers interface with the Blade support chip used on Sun Microsystem's Blade server products. These drivers
       provide a conduit for passing control, environmental, cpu signature and event information between Solaris and the Blade support chip.

       These drivers do not export public interfaces. Instead they make information available via picl, prtdiag,  prtfru  and  related	tools.	In
       addition, these drivers log Blade support chip environmental event information into system logs.
