 Single address space for the whole system. No separate kernel/user page tables. Isolation comes from compilers, page permissions and privilege levels, not from switching CR3.
 
-Kernel lives in the higher half. User processes only see what they are explicitly given. Kernel pages are supervisor-only so user-mode code cannot touch them. User pages are isolated from each other through the allocator and process creation path, not by hardware address-space separation.

 Is this how a serious modern OS should isolate processes? No.
