That RO system is overpriced and undersized (3 gph). Buy better kits from wholesalers that use standard parts (50-200 gph) for the same price. (200 gph can be tankless and generate product water on-demand) http://www.wateranywher

The Linux kernel is a dumping-ground, kitchen-drain of all features (20 megaLoC with no end in sight) because of their inability to isolate concerns and provide fast IPC.
