Correct me if I am wrong, Unikernels are basically allowing binary to run at Ring 0?

What do you think about WASM in the kernel with the same high level concept with Unikernel? link in the below

I'm not sure I can say anything intelligent about WASM in the regular kernel, but from a UKL point of view we're talking with Enarx and they're going to join us on one of our regular meetings in a few weeks. For more info on Enarx and web assembly see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wrQSe-IdMI

I'll admit I don't know much about WASM but access to raw sockets and 32bit only sounds extremely limiting.

Until those are dealt with wasm will never move past it's current status quo - malware in the browser.
