Normally the logic in this file builds to a single library (<code>liblib.a</code>).
However, if NuttX is built as a separately compiled kernel (with <code>CONFIG_NUTTX_KERNEL=y</code>), then the contents of this directory are built as two libraries:
One for use by user programs (<code>libulib.a</code>) and one for use only within the &lt;kernel&gt; space (<code>libklib.a</code>).

These user/kernel space libraries (along with the sycalls of <a href="#DirStructSyscall"><code>nuttx/syscall</code></a>) are needed to support the two differing protection domains.
