Oh yeah. I’ve had to do a small amount of it on much simpler systems for work from time to time, and it’s always been damn hard. Often rewarding in a weird way, but very difficult.
the closes i’ve ever come to it was retrofitting intel’s e100 driver to work w offbrand hardware and it took me weeks and i had access to the source and addresses of the hardware; i can’t imagine how hard it would be to start with less.
People that reverse engineer complex modern hardware are probably some of the best developers in the world.
