The short answer: none of your questions has a short answer.

A recommendation: get Kirk McKusick's "Design and Implementation of 4.4BSD",
it has a lot of the information you need, and a quick skim through the
relevant chapters should be enough to give you an idea of the answers
you need.  I think that for most people, the ability to really answer even
half of your questions would come after several university-level courses
in computer science and OS design, and/or after several years' worth
of work in the field.

(alright, so there may be exceptions.. if you happen to be one of them,
 or if you've had those several years of programming experience, then
 McKusick's book should give you the answers you need :)

G'luck,
Peter
