The Basic Entities Common in Unix And Linux Are

Kernel Shell Utilities

What is Actually Meant By Kernel? The Kernel is The Main Component of Computer Operating Systems And it Acts Like A Bridge Between Applications And The Actual Data Processing Done At The Hardware Level. The Kernel's Responsibilities Include Managing The System's Resources And The Communication Between Hardware And Software Components. The Kernel Provides Lowest-Level Abstraction For The Resources Such That Application Software Can Be Controlled To Perform Their Functions. Kernel Makes The Abstraction Facilities Available To The Application Processes Through Inter-Process Communication(IPC) Mechanisms And System Calls. The Main Tasks of The Kernel Are
Process Management Device Management Memory Management Interrupt Handling I/O Communication File System Management

What Are The Types of Kernels? Broadly There Are Three Types of Kernels in Usage
Monolithic Kernels Micro Kernels Hybrid Kernels

Monolithic Kernels Monolithic Kernels Execute All The Operating System Code in The Same Address Space To Increase The Performance. The Basic Advantages of Monolithic Kernel

In Monolithic Kernel As There is Less Software involved it is Faster. Monolithic Kernel is One Single Piece of Software Hence it is Smaller Both in Source And Compiled Forms. Less Code in Monolithic Kernel Means That Fewer Bugs Hence Will Translate To Fewer Security Problems.

Application
VFS, System Call

Kernel Mode

IPC, File System Scheduler, Virtual Memory Device Drivers, Queue, Dispatcher

Micro Kernels Micro Kernels Run Most of The Operating System Services in User Space Called As Servers. Micro Kernels Aim At The Improvement of Maintainability And Modularity of The Operating System. The Microkernel Approach Consists of Defining A Simple Abstraction Over The Hardware, The Abstraction Consists of A Set of Primitives OR System Calls To Implement Minimal Operating System Services Which Include
Memory Management Multitasking Inter-Process Communication.

Hybrid OR Modular Kernels Hybrid Kernels Are A Combination of Services of Monolithic And Micro Kernels Together. Hybrid Kernels Are Almost Similar To Micro Kernels, Except They Include Some Additional Code in Kernel-Space To Increase Performance. Hybrid Kernels Are Unable To Load Modules At Runtime on Their Own With A Compromise Between The Monolithic And Microkernel Designs.

Kernel is The Core of The UNIX System And it is Loaded At System Start Up OR The Boot Process. Kernel Manages The Entire Hardware Resources of The Computer System. Functions Executed By The Kernel Interpreting And Executing Instructions From The
Shell Managing The Machines Memory Allocating Memory To Processes Scheduling The Work Done By The CPUs

What is Meant By Shell? Whenever The End User Logins To A Unix System He is Placed in A Shell Program. The Shell is An Operating Systems Command Interpreter And it Takes Each Command And Passes it To The Operating System Kernel To Be Acted Upon. Shell Displays The Results of The Command Operations on To The End Users Screen. Unix Systems Provide Different Types of Shells, Each With its Own Strengths And Weaknesses, The Different Types of Shells
The Bourne Shell (SH) C Shell (CSH And TCSH) Bourne Again Shell (BASH) Korn Shell (KSH)

Bourne Shell(sh) The Bourne Shell, Represented As sh is One of The Original Shells, Developed For Unix Computers By Stephen Bourne At AT&T's Bell Labs in 1977. Bourne Shell is One of The Highly Tested Shell Against The Time in The Unix World. Features Offered By Bourne Shell
Input And Output Redirection Shell Scripting With String And Integer Variables Condition Testing Looping OR Iteration

Bourne Again Shell(bash) The Bourne Again Shell is Compatible With Bourne Shell, But Provided With Several Enhancements. On Linux Systems bash Which is Based on sh is The Default Standard. bash Has The Ability To Run sh Shell Scripts Unchanged, Saving The Programmers Time. The Additional Conveniences By bash Include C Shell(csh And tcsh) Using C Syntax As A Model, Bill Joy At Berkeley University Developed The C-Shell csh, in 1978.

Command Completion Command History

Ken Greer, Working At Carnegie-Mellon University, Made Changes on csh And Introduced A Shell Called tcsh Which is Integrated into Linux Systems. tcsh Fixed The Limitations in csh And Added Command Completion Which Makes Educated Guesses As Per The System's Directory Structure And Files. tcsh Cannot Run bash Scripts, As The Two Have Substantial Differences. Korn (ksh) David Korn Developed The Korn Shell ksh ksh is Compatible With sh And bash. ksh Improves on The Bourne Shell By Adding
Floating-Point Arithmetic Job Control Command Aliasing Command Completion

Utilities Unix Provides Hundreds of Utility Programs, Often Referred To As Commands. The Unix Commands Accomplish Universal Functions Such As Printing, Editing Files, etc. Utilities Are The Basic OR Advanced Commands That Can Be Used To Execute The Required Functionalities in Unix System.
