It used to be that building the Linux kernel was not easy. Testing and debugging were even worse. Nowadays, it is reasonably easy to build a custom kernel and test or debug it using virtualization.

where K 0 (·) is a kernel function, is the bandwidth, n is the sample size, and x i is the i th observation. The KERNEL option provides three kernel functions (K 0): normal, quadratic, and triangular.
