Abstract
In some examples, a system includes a kernel scheduler to schedule, for execution, threads to run in an address space of an operating system (OS) kernel according to respective priorities associated with the threads, where each thread of the threads has a user persona and a kernel persona. The kernel scheduler switches each respective thread of the threads to the kernel persona of the respective thread in response to scheduling the respective thread for execution responsive to a kernel call from the respective thread. The kernel scheduler preempts a thread in the kernel persona of the thread that is actively executing in response to an event.
