Why This File Exists
CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.
- CPU and platform-specific kernel glue: boot entry, traps, syscall entry, interrupts, page tables, context switch, and low-level barriers.
- Touches user memory; correctness depends on fault-safe copying and privilege boundary handling.
- Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `asm/processor.h`, `asm/types.h`, `asm/hwrpb.h`, `asm/sysinfo.h`.
- Detected declarations: `struct thread_info`, `function save_fpu`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/alpha.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
- This snippet crosses the user/kernel memory boundary; validate fault handling and access checks before translating the pattern.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
