Tom L Nguyen is the author credited on the Linux kernel's guide to the PCI Express port bus driver, with an Intel email address in its byline. The guide explains how a single port can provide several services, including hot-plug handling and error reporting, while the ordinary driver model associates one driver with a device.[ref]
The port bus driver coordinates those services so separate service drivers can coexist instead of competing to claim the same bridge. This is a concrete example of dividing operating-system kernel responsibilities around one physical device.
