Linux kernel interfaces
open-in-new
<p>The <a href="/facts/Linux_kernel/dlkduHuA">Linux kernel</a> provides multiple interfaces to <a href="/facts/User_space_and_kernel_space/0yIzMY8t">user-space and kernel-mode</a> code. The interfaces can be classified as either <a href="/facts/Application_programming_interface/GMlN4vUr">application programming interface</a> (API) or <a href="/facts/Application_binary_interface/wc6pmKKb">application binary interface</a> (ABI), and they can be classified as either kernel–user space or kernel-internal. </p>
