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.
- Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.
Dependency Surface
- No C-style include directives detected by the generator.

/*
* With LPAE, there are 3 levels of page tables. Each level has 512 entries of
* 8 bytes each, occupying a 4K page. The first level table covers a range of
* 512GB, each entry representing 1GB. Since we are limited to 4GB input
* address range, only 4 entries in the PGD are used.
*
* There are enough spare bits in a page table entry for the kernel specific
* state.

Annotation
- Detected declarations: `function pte_mkspecial`, `function pmd_mkinvalid`, `function pmd_modify`, `function set_pmd_at`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/arm.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
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.
