+/**
+ * \file api_drv_common.h
+ * \brief Common Driver Interface Definitions
+ * \author John Hodge (thePowersGang)
+ * 
+ * \section Introduction
+ * There are two ways Acess drivers can communicate with userspace
+ * applications, both are through the VFS. The first is by exposing a
+ * device as a file buffer, the second is by sending commands via the
+ * ioctl() system call.
+ * All drivers in Acess must at least conform to the specifcation in this
+ * file (even if it is just implementing eTplDrv_IOCtl.DRV_IOCTL_TYPE and
+ * returning eTplDrv_Type.DRV_TYPE_NULL, however, doing so is discouraged)
+ * 
+ * \section ioctls Core IOCtl calls
+ * As said, the core Acess driver specifcation defines specific IOCtl calls
+ * that all drivers should implement. The four core IOCtls (defined in
+ * ::eTplDrv_IOCtl) allow another binary (wether it be a user-mode application
+ * or another driver) to tell what type of device a driver provides, the
+ * basic identifcation of the driver (4 character ID and BCD version number)
+ * and be able to use externally standardised calls that may not have
+ * standardised call numbers.
+ * NOTE: All ioctl calls WILL return -1 if the driver ran into an error
+ * of its own fault while executing the call. If the user was at fault
+ * (e.g. by passing a bad buffer) the call will return -2.
+ * 
+ * \section types Driver Types
+ * When the eTplDrv_IOCtl.DRV_IOCTL_TYPE call is made, the driver should
+ * return the relevant entry in the ::eTplDrv_Type enumeration that describes
+ * what sub-specifcation (and hence, what device type) it implements.
+ * These device types are described in their own files, which are liked
+ * from their entries in ::eTplDrv_Type.
