I thought there was a compatibility layer available that made it possible to run Linux drivers on at least FreeBSD.


That's for userland, not drivers. Linux doesn't have a stable interface for drivers so a compatibility layer would be a nightmare to maintain.


That's Linuxulator, but there's also LinuxKPI: https://wiki.freebsd.org/LinuxKPI
