  2. L4 microkernel family - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L4_microkernel_family

    WrmOS [39] is a real-time operating system based on L4 microkernel. It has own implementations of kernel, standard libraries, and network stack, supporting ARM, SPARC, x86, and x86-64 architectures. There is the paravirtualized Linux kernel (w4linux [40]) working on WrmOS. Helios is a microkernel inspired by seL4. [41]

  3. User space and kernel space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_space_and_kernel_space

    The most common way of implementing a user mode separate from kernel mode involves operating system protection rings. Protection rings, in turn, are implemented using CPU modes . Typically, kernel space programs run in kernel mode , also called supervisor mode ; normal applications in user space run in user mode.

  4. Mode setting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_setting

    OpenBSD has kernel-based mode setting support for Intel and Radeon GPUs. Starting with version 5.4 of OpenBSD, support for Intel GPUs is available. With the release of version 5.5, the implementation has been extended to add support for Radeon chipsets as well.

  6. Windows Display Driver Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Display_Driver_Model

    Windows 10 includes WDDM 2.0, which is designed to dramatically reduce workload on the kernel-mode driver for GPUs that support virtual memory addressing, [37] to allow multithreading parallelism in the user-mode driver and result in lower CPU utilization.

  7. Windows Driver Frameworks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Driver_Frameworks

    User-Mode Driver Framework v2, for writing user-mode drivers with syntactic parity to KMDF WDF also includes a set of static verification tools for use by driver writers. These tools examine driver code for common errors and/or simulate the code of a driver in order to identify problems that are both difficult to detect and difficult to test for.

  8. Architecture of Windows NT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_of_Windows_NT

    The Windows NT kernel is a hybrid kernel; the architecture comprises a simple kernel, hardware abstraction layer (HAL), drivers, and a range of services (collectively named Executive), which all exist in kernel mode. [1] User mode in Windows NT is made of subsystems capable of passing I/O requests to the appropriate kernel mode device drivers ...

  9. Hybrid kernel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_kernel

    The Windows NT operating system family's architecture consists of two layers (user mode and kernel mode), with many different modules within both of these layers.One prominent example of a hybrid kernel is the Microsoft Windows NT kernel that powers all operating systems in the Windows NT family, up to and including Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022, and powers Windows Phone 8, Windows Phone ...
