• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 21:31 −302 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Exokernels: United since 2021 - an exokernel does *not* require every use to write their own library operating system; they can use an already-written one. Remove.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 21:29 −10 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Exokernels: I'm not sure there's a Wikipedia page to describe the sort of multiplexing of access to the raw hardware is being provided, but mutliplexing (bus) isn't that page.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 21:06 −58 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Hybrid (or modular) kernels: *Most* commercial operating systems? Only a few mainstream ones, such as NT and Darwin derivatives. Copyedit and simplify the first stenence about monolithic kernels with LKMs;)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 21:00 −68 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Microkernels: Microkernels and monolithic kernels can be written mostly or even exclusively in a high-level language; the key characteristic of a microkernel server is that it runs in user mode. In a microkernel, there isn't necessarily a *single* program providing the OS services, and they may not be normal application programs - the kernel may grant them privileges not granted to applications.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:53 +26 Guy Harris talk contribs (The Linux kernel is not the only, or even the first, monolithic kernel with modules.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:50 +68 Guy Harris talk contribs (Fix capitalization. Request an explanation of what a "hardware process" is.)

• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:39 +60 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Monolithic kernels: Link to Memory management (operating systems) rather than Memory management - the latter is for memory management in userland. Consistently refer to it as "memory management" rather than sometimes calling it "memory handling".)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:27 −64 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Monolithic kernels: Get rid of unnecessary piping.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:24 −9 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Monolithic kernels: 1) Not all kernels have a "main kernel thread". For example, most Un*x kernels run system calls in the same thread as the user-mode code that made the system call, and many of them also have multiple kernel threads separate from any user-mode thread. 2) In any case, the init process isn't the "main kernel thread" - init or its equivalent is a (possibly multi-threaded) user-mode program.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:19 −23 Guy Harris talk contribs (→Kernel-wide design approaches: Spell out "microkernels" rather than saying "micro and monolithic kernels". Get rid of unnecessary piping.)
• diffhist Kernel (operating system) 20:17 −1 Guy Harris talk contribs (That's a restrictive clause, limiting "objects provided to user code" to the ones that "allow limited access to an underlying object managed by the kernel", so use "that" rather than "which".)
