I think printf usually invoke system call. But in Fiasco only one system call is capability invocation. So what capability is invoked by printf? Or Fiasco implements printf in user level, so printf triggers a normal IPC?
Since capability invocation and IPC is the same it's actually both. Each task has a 'log' capability which is used to print out text. printf and friends also uses this interface pass on output.
