 kernmalloc
The design of this allocator takes advantage of known memory usage patterns in the UNIX kernel and a hybrid strategy that is time-efficient for small allocations and space-efficient for large allocations.
This allocator replaces the multiple memory allocation interfaces with a single easy-to-program interface, results in more efficient use of global memory by eliminating partitioned and specialized memory pools, and is quick enough that no performance loss is observed relative to the current implementations.
The 4.3BSD UNIX kernel uses many memory allocation mechanisms, each designed for the particular needs of the utilizing subsystem.

Linus Torvalds named his kernel Linux and it was a perfect fit as the missing piece of GNU project's operating system (DiBona 103).
The Open Source operating system was born out of open source ideology that two minds are better than one.
The advantage of a micro-kernel is that it's far more portable, since it relies on applications to do more of the operating system's work.

With remote paging, virtual memory pages that are evicted from a computer's main memory are temporarily stored in the main memory of another computer.

The ``bare-machine'' kernel is a runtime support for the language that runs directly (``stand-alone'') on the machine, rather than interfacing to an existing operating system such as UNIX.

 Using Kernel Extensions to Decrease the Latency of User-Level Communication Primitives University of New Mexico ...
Typically, the remote node has to trap into the kernel and perform an expensive context switch to the handler.
The research proposed in this paper compares these methods and attempts to prove that a kernel embedded interpreter has the necessary performance and safety characteristics to be the ideal method for remote handler invocation in massively parallel systems.
Executing the untrusted remote handler inside the operating system kernel eliminates the overhead of context switches and disrupted cashes.

 Monolithic kernel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A monolithic kernel defines a high-level virtual interface over the hardware, with a set of primitives or system calls to implement operating system services such as process management, concurrency, and memory management in several modules that run in supervisor mode.
More modern monolithic kernels such as Linux, FreeBSD and Solaris can load executable modules at runtime, allowing easy extension of the kernel's capabilities as required, while helping to keep the amount of code running in kernelspace to a minimum.
However, when the implementation is complete and trustworthy, the tight internal integration of components allows the low-level features of the underlying system to be effectively utilized, making a good monolithic kernel highly efficient.
