VirtuOS's user library dispatches system calls directly to service domains using an exceptionless system call model, avoiding the cost of a system call trap in many cases. ...
Thus, Vir-tuOS may provide a suitable basis for kernel decomposition while retaining compatibility with existing applications and good performance. ...
Exception-less system calls [48] avoid this overhead. ...

Our system call scripting runs with less overhead because we use a Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler. To evaluate our idea, we ported the LuaJIT compiler into the FreeBSD 10.1 x86 kernel. ...
We modified Memcached to use system call scripting that processes multiple UDP GET requests at a time. ...
FlexSC does not only avoid using exceptions which cause cache pollution, it also makes system call batching possible. ...

We have implemented Pesos as a fully-functional storage system supporting many useful end-to-end storage features, and a range of effective performance optimizations. ...
Third-party storage services pose the risk of integrity and confidentiality violations as the current storage policy enforcement mechanisms are spread across many layers in the system stack. ...
To overcome this issue, we use an asynchronous system call interface as proposed by FlexSC [69] and adopted by Scone [3] . ...
