Here's a pdf giving a decent overview: https://www.bsdcan.org/2006/papers/freebsd.device.driver.slides.pdf
But, the FreeBSD handbook also goes over the process as well. https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/arch-handbook/driverbasics.html For the guy that took Linux drivers, you might want to look into the Linux Emulator, that would be the easiest path especially if those Linux drivers includes a lot of Linux specific headers. The NetBSD drivers should be a bit easier to port.
