How do you think this works on microkernels? Do they have no support for multiple applications using the network?

- kortilla 1y agoIf they don’t have TCP in them, yes. Either each application would need its own IP or another application would be responsible for being the TCP port router.
- surajrmal 1y agoYou're talking about a hypervisor, not a microkernel.
- Veserv 1y agoThat is not at all a problem. On a microkernel you just have a userspace TCP/network server that your other programs talk to that manages/multiplexes the shared network connection.
- surajrmal 1y agoAgreed. My point was a the network stack need not live in the kernel.
