Methods and systems for device driver compilation dispensation of consumable compositions are provided. A method for compiling device drivers may include, but is not limited to: (a) installing a host OS on a compiler server; (b) installing a plurality of target OS on the compile server; (c) installing a dynamic kernel module support package (DKMS) on the compile server for at least one of the plurality of target OS; (d) compiling a driver module on the compile server for a first target OS of the plurality of target OS; and (e) compiling a driver module on the compile server for a second target OS of the plurality of OS.

Linux matrix compilation system and method

The present invention is a method for handling an operation system kernel-provided command via a software-based device driver. The method includes receiving the operation system kernel-provided command from an operation system kernel. The method further includes determining if a kernel virtual address is required for responding to the command. The method further includes initiating a Direct Memory Access (DMA) operation for providing data to the operating system kernel in response to the command when a kernel virtual address is not required for responding to the command. The method further includes allocating a device driver buffer with a DMA address and a virtual address when a kernel virtual address is required for responding to the command.
