Yep, it's amusing that both these APIs recycle the names of what Mac OS X's parents used (DriverKit for NeXTSTEP, and the infamous System Extensions of classic Mac OS). Obviously no technical recycling going on though; the new DriverKit allows user-mode drivers, not ObjC in the kernel or willy-nilly patching of the OS.

NeXT's driverkit allowed user-mode drivers, as I recall, having written one in 1993.
