Execute user program in kernel mode?

[Wang, Baojun]

hi,

  Is it possible to run user program (statically linked) in kernel mode? for 
example the user program entry is 0x10000000, can we call it directly from 
kernel? I've tried many times, but I got the following Error(Oops):

  Does that mean we can not call user space entry code directly, can we?
