Implicit Scaling
A root-device is built using multiple sub-devices, also known as stacks. These stacks form a shared memory space which allows to treat a root-device as a monolithic device without the requirement of explicit communication between stacks. This section covers multi-stack programming principles using implicit scaling. When using implicit scaling, the root-device driver is responsible for distributing work to all stacks when application code launches a kernel.
