Assuming you are developing driver for OpenSolaris/Nevada you best bet would be to do a GLDv3 driver. The GLDv3 API was recently promoted to public [1]. GLDv3 will allow you to concentrate on developing the driver for your specific hardware, while offloading the lion share of the common code to the generic implementation.Most of the current network drivers in OpenSolaris are GLDv3 based.
