Linux and Solaris are quite different when it comes to kernel strategies. Linux documents and stabilizes its kernel interfaces while Solaris does not document its kernel interfaces, but focuses on stable shared library interfaces. Most Linux system APIs have a direct kernel API equivalent but Solaris often uses a completely different kernel interface. Segmentation faults in user applications are generally due to user-space bugs rather than due to the kernel.
