Which of the following multithreading model is followed in Linux OS?

  • A. One User Thread mapping to One Kernel Thread
  • B. Many User Threads mapping to One Kernel Thread
  • C. One User Thread mapping to Many Kernel Threads
  • D. Many User Threads mapping to Many Kernel Threads

Answer: A. One User Thread mapping to One Kernel Thread
