For NetBSD device driver development see:
http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/kernel/programming.html
http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/kernel/programming.html#adding_a_new_driver
and the manual page driver(9) which give an overview.
One of the simpler device drivers can be found in the source code:
sys/dev/pci/puc.c
