From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I feel I should know this in my bones after so many years, but does 'privileged' in kernel context also include 'sudo/sudo su' elevated users ? I wonder if the kernel distinguish between pure root, and elevated user ..or if it even matters here ?
Anyway, this is cool. There's a ton of crazy file systems that just didn't pan out bc of speed issues. I'll just leave these links to filesystems.
https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/wiki/Filesystems A ton of cool ideas!.. I need my AI to have access via fuse. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace?lang=en less crazy systems but probably stable projects
Thanks for sharing the info!
sudo allows so run actions as root, so I would say yes.
But a privileged filesystem might not be invoked by the user, it may be a process running as root.
