Unikernels are processes with a really funny system call ABI.

If you run them in qemu then this becomes very clear. Even better (or worse?) the strange system call ABI is translated into regular system calls by the qemu process.

Hypervisors are often microkernels, eg Xen is. Obviously KVM isn't as it's Linux...
