int quantum_kernel_compile(const char *source, size_t len, 
                          struct quantum_circuit **circuit) {
    char *output;
    size_t output_len;
    
    int result = kernel_quantum_compile(source, len, &output, &output_len);
    if (result != 0)
        return result;
    
    *circuit = parse_circuit(output, output_len);
    kfree(output);
    
    return 0;
}

// Execute quantum circuit
int quantum_kernel_execute(struct quantum_circuit *circuit,
                          struct quantum_result *result) {
    return kernel_quantum_execute(circuit->data, circuit->len, result);
}
```

### 5.2 User-Space API

```c
#include <qataaum/kernel.h>

int main() {
    // Compile circuit
    const char *source = "OPENQASM 2.0; qreg q[2]; h q[0]; cx q[0],q[1];";
    char *compiled;
    size_t compiled_len;
    
    if (quantum_compile(source, &compiled, &compiled_len) != 0) {
        perror("quantum_compile");
        return 1;
    }
    
    // Execute circuit
    struct quantum_result result;
    if (quantum_execute(compiled, compiled_len, &result) != 0) {
        perror("quantum_execute");
        return 1;
    }
    
    // Print results
    printf("Measurement: %d %d\n", result.bits[0], result.bits[1]);
    
    free(compiled);
    return 0;
}
```

### 5.3 Python Bindings

```python
import qataaum_kernel

# Compile and execute quantum circuit
source = """
OPENQASM 2.0;
qreg q[2];
h q[0];
cx q[0],q[1];
measure q -> c;
"""

# Compile
circuit = qataaum_kernel.compile(source)

# Execute
result = qataaum_kernel.execute(circuit, shots=1024)

# Print results
print(f"Results: {result.counts}")
```

## 6. Configuration

### 6.1 Kernel Configuration

**File:** `sov-kernel-monster/.config`

```
CONFIG_QUANTUM_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_QATAAUM_COMPILER=m
CONFIG_QATAAUM_SIMULATOR=m
CONFIG_QATAAUM_RUNTIME=m
CONFIG_QUANTUM_MAX_QUBITS=14
CONFIG_QUANTUM_MAX_JOBS=100
```

### 6.2 Runtime Configuration

**File:** `/etc/qataaum/kernel.conf`

```ini
[compiler]
max_circuit_size = 1048576
optimization_level = 2
enable_verification = true

[simulator]
max_qubits = 14
default_backend = statevector
enable_noise = false

[runtime]
max_concurrent_jobs = 10
job_timeout = 300
enable_journaling = true

[security]
require_capabilities = CAP_SYS_ADMIN
enforce_quotas = true
audit_logging = true
```

---

## 7. Security Considerations

### 7.1 Privilege Requirements

- **Compilation:** Requires `CAP_SYS_RESOURCE`
- **Execution:** Requires `CAP_SYS_ADMIN` for hardware access
- **Job Management:** Requires `CAP_SYS_NICE` for priority control

### 7.2 Resource Limits

```c
struct quantum_limits {
    unsigned int max_qubits;      // Maximum qubits per user
    unsigned int max_jobs;        // Maximum concurrent jobs
    unsigned long max_memory;     // Maximum memory usage
    unsigned int max_time;        // Maximum execution time (seconds)
};
```

### 7.3 Audit Logging

All quantum operations logged to `/var/log/quantum/audit.log`:

```
[2026-07-22 08:00:00] USER=alice ACTION=compile CIRCUIT=bell.qasm STATUS=success
[2026-07-22 08:00:01] USER=alice ACTION=execute JOB=12345 QUBITS=2 STATUS=success
[2026-07-22 08:00:02] USER=bob ACTION=compile CIRCUIT=large.qasm STATUS=denied REASON=quota_exceeded
```

## 8. Performance Optimization

### 8.1 Kernel-Space Optimizations

- **Zero-Copy:** Use shared memory for large data transfers
- **Async I/O:** Non-blocking quantum operations
- **CPU Affinity:** Pin quantum threads to specific cores
- **NUMA Awareness:** Allocate memory on local NUMA nodes

### 8.2 Caching Strategy

```c
struct quantum_cache {
    struct rb_root compiled_circuits;  // Cache compiled circuits
    struct rb_root simulation_states;  // Cache quantum states
    unsigned long cache_size;
    unsigned long max_cache_size;
};
```

---
