The Linux Kernel Library is a project started by Octavian Purdila at University POLITEHNICA of Bucharest's Ixia sponsored laboratories, IXLABS.
The project's goal is to use the Linux kernel as a linkable library, so that the non-static functions from the kernel can be called from some external program.
A first application created was LKLFTPD which is an FTP daemon which reads files from an image disk using code from the kernel.

The fiery day had a kernel sweet of cold”

“... as beauty is in the eye of the beholder, the ideal library is in the wish of its maker.”
—Carolyn Wells (1862–1942)
