This shim layer makes it possible to run Solaris kernel code in the Linux kernel with relatively minimal modification. . This can be particularly useful when you want to track upstream Illumos (or any other OpenSolaris fork) development closely and don't want the overhead of maintaining a large patch which converts Solaris primitives to Linux primitives. . This package contains the source code for the SPL and SPLAT Linux kernel modules, which can be used with DKMS, so that local kernel modules are automatically built and installed every time the kernel packages are upgraded. . The Solaris Porting LAyer Tests (SPLAT) is a Linux kernel module which provides a testing harness for the SPL module.
