-The _KernLISData global variable is a pointer to a data structure that contains information about the OS/2 kernel's Loader Interface Segment (LIS). The LIS is a data structure that is used by the kernel to store information about the operating system and its components, including the kernel itself, device drivers, and other system modules. The _KernLISData variable is a 4-byte value that is stored in memory and is used by the kernel and by other parts of the operating system to access the LIS. It is often used by programs to access information about the operating system and its components, such as the version numbers of the kernel and other system modules.
