What is kernel space e user space ?
Kernel space is the privilege mode of the CPU that kernel code runs in, and user space is the protected (or "untrusted") mode of the CPU that applications run in.
If you don't understand that explanation, then I recommend you get a good book on computer architecture and spend this weekend reading it.
