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 IRQ or DMA behavior; this matters for the representative real-device path.
Dependency Surface
- No C-style include directives detected by the generator.
Detected Declarations
- No top-level syscall, struct, function, initcall, or export declaration detected by the generator.

menuconfig VIRTUALIZATION
bool "Virtualization"
help
Say Y here to get to see options for using your Linux host to run
other operating systems inside virtual machines (guests).
This option alone does not add any kernel code.
If you say N, all options in this submenu will be skipped and
disabled.

Support running unmodified book3s_32 guest kernels

This module provides access to the hardware capabilities through
a character device node named /dev/kvm.
If unsure, say N.

Annotation
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/powerpc.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
- IRQ or DMA behavior appears here, which is relevant to the selected PCIe/NVMe device path.
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.
