KS2007: The greater kernel ecosystem and user-space APIs

Once upon a time, the kernel exported a small set of system calls which made almost the entire interface with user space. In current times, that interface has grown quite a bit more complex. For all practical purposes, the bottom layer of the system now consists of the kernel plus a fair amount of user-space software - udev, HAL, X, etc., which presents the interface that the user actually sees. A panel at the 2007 Kernel Summit made up of Greg Kroah-Hartman, David Zeuthen, Kay Sievers, and David Airlie looked at issues involving this combined software layer.
