Bryan Cantrill's illumos Day 2014 talk on running Linux containers on an illumos kernel via LX-branded zones. He covers emulating Linux syscalls on SmartOS and compares Linux and Solaris-derived systems.
HN points to it as an entertaining deep dive on Linux emulation on SmartOS and on how the Solaris kernel and libc are tightly coupled.
