Kernel-user Space Boundary

Kernel-User Space Boundary is a foundational architectural abstraction in operating systems that delineates the privileged kernel space, where core system processes and hardware interactions are executed, from the unprivileged user space, where application programs operate, thereby enforcing isolation, protection, and controlled access to system resources through standardized interfaces such as system calls.
