RTKernel-32 is designed to be portable. It is completely written in ANSI C. All target system and hardware dependencies are encapsulated in a set of drivers described in this section. Various drivers are delivered with RTKernel-32 in full source code. Only the source code of the portable kernel and the Intel 386 CPU driver must be purchased separately, if required. Thus, it is possible to port RTKernel-32 to other platforms by supplying an adequate set of drivers.

The complete interfaces of the drivers are given in the respective header files (one for each driver). The following description of each driver details the header file describing the respective driver, which drivers are available, and for which platforms they are suitable. Section Overview of all Drivers gives an overview of all available drivers. Each driver is delivered as a library file to be linked to RTKernel-32 applications. Alternatively, the prebuilt driver library Drvrt32.lib can be used for RTKernel-32 programs running under RTTarget-32 with the default drivers.
