in thread Disadvantage of not supporting pthreads in perl and how perl overcomes?

the term “kernel thread” customarily refers specifically to privileged threads which are “part of the kernel itself.”

Bullshit! As normal. Why do you bother?

Update: "Processes, kernel threads, user threads, and fibers: Scheduling can be done at the kernel level or user level, and multitasking can be done preemptively or cooperatively. This yields a variety of related concepts. At the kernel level, a process contains one or more kernel threads, which share the process's resources, such as memory and file handles – a process is a unit of resources, while a thread is a unit of scheduling and execution"
