Do we have built-in library in Go which could be used for doing low level stuffs like Linux Kernel programming. This is because, hitherto, most of the Linux Kernel programming was done in C and since Go is purported as a step beyond C, it would nice to see such low level library support in Go language. Do let me know.
2 ) Monolithic kernels are used in Unix and Linux. Microkernels are used in QNX, L4 and HURD. It was initially used in Mach (not Mac OS X) but later converted into a hybrid kernel. Even Minix is not a pure kernel because device drivers are compiled as part of the kernel . 3) Monolithic kernels are faster than microkernels. The first microkernel Mach was 50% slower than Monolithic kernel, while later version like L4 were only 2% or 4% slower than the Monolithic kernel . 4) Monolithic kernels generally are bulky.
