So how does this differ from the work on lkl (the linux kernel library: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/224164682_LKL_The_Linux_kernel_library https://www.researchgate.net/publication/224164682_LKL_The_L...)? Is it that they're actually rewriting their own kernel components with the goal of modularity/minimality?
- justincormack 11y agoYes, LKL uses unmodified Linux so you live with the dependencies and way the functionality is implemented. In exchange you get working code right now. Also Linux is GPL, while includeOS is Apache licensed. As a library, the syscall exception may well not apply with using Linux as a unikernel.
