The program that surrounds the kernel of the operating system is called the "user space" or "user mode."

What is kernel trap?

A kernel trap is an event that occurs when an application or process requests a service from the operating system's kernel, typically through a system call. This mechanism switches the execution context from user mode to kernel mode, allowing the kernel to safely execute privileged operations on behalf of the application. Traps can also occur due to exceptions or errors, prompting the kernel to handle them appropriately. Overall, kernel traps are essential for maintaining system security and stability by controlling access to hardware and system resources.

A system call is initiated when a program requests a service from the operating system's kernel.

The program specifies the desired service by passing parameters, often using registers or a stack. The kernel then processes the request and returns the result to the user program.
