OpenSC has it's own mini driver.
Simple curiosity, what is the motivation to develop a "minidriver based on OpenSC code"?

Card has to be supported by the OpenSC core.
Minidriver of OpenSC uses the internal PKCS#15 framework; the same framework is used by OpenSC PKCS#11 module.

You have to implement card-xxx.[c,h].
Only valid PKCS#15 on-card structure is needed, native or emulated.
