I wonder which L4 they use. L4 is more a family than a single kernel. The different variants are essentially totally different kernels from the same school of thought.

Looking into it more, it looks like a heavily modified fork of L4Ka::Pistachio. That's pretty fun, I may have to go exploit hunting this weekend.
