GENERIC Driver

The GENERIC driver is a special pseudo-protocol supported by Memory I/O Devices and Disk I/O Devices. GENERIC is not a real protocol, and does not communicate with any physical I/O device.

The GENERIC driver supports the basic data types, providing a convenient and consistent way to represent memory and disk data.

Note: There are no communication specific errors associated with the GENERIC driver. Although you cannot use the GENERIC protocol to communicate with a physical I/O device, memory and disk devices can use other protocols.
