It's not exactly what I was searching for, but it gives me an idea of how I can use some stuff. Perhaps I didn't explain myself clear. As David said, I should specify the OS for what the drivers are needed. I'm interested in doing it on Linux, for a x86 architecture. By the way, it's very difficult to port a x86 driver for Linux to another architecture? For example, to port a x86 linux console driver to an Arm linux console driver. Thanks again.
