If you export functions that implement the required JNI functionality then VM-writers can either choose to use them directly (i.e. put the function addresses in the JNI table), or choose to reach into the classlib Java code. Since the second option would require the VM to reach into implementation details of NIO (which may change) the recommended way would be to use the provided functions. I agree that there is no need to label any NIO types 'kernel'.
