Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) is a free and open-source virtualization module in the Linux kernel that allows the kernel to function as a hypervisor...

: 379–380  The kernel has a modular design such that modules can be integrated as software components – including dynamically loaded. The kernel is monolithic...

On 20 March 2020, Debian developers enabled the module build options for WireGuard in their kernel config for the Debian 11 version (testing). On 29...

hardware. Code running in kernel mode includes: the executive, which is itself made up of many modules that do specific tasks; the kernel, which provides low-level...

cached by its origin, e.g.: static content: file cache; dynamic content: dynamic cache (module / program output). Historically, static contents found in...

requiring changes to kernel source code or loading kernel modules. Safety is provided through an in-kernel verifier which performs static code analysis and...

coordinating between kernelspace modules, userspace modules, and regular userspace web server daemons that provide dynamic content. Regular userspace web...

work for kernel loadable modules though - weak symbol in the kernel is not replaced with kernel module symbol when the module is loaded. C preprocessor...

example, when a kernel performs computations in GPU memory and a parallel kernel performs communications with a peer, the local kernel will flush its writes...

native support for TPM 1.2. The Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM 2.0) has been supported by the Linux kernel since version 3.20 (2012) Google includes TPMs...

supervisor (kernel) mode. Dynamic use of individually and separately built software components (executable program images and kernel modules) rather than...

small quantity of disk space. When a new kernel is installed, the backup copy of the previous kernel and its modules are stripped of their debugging symbols...
