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 participates in a user/kernel boundary; inspect argument validation, copy_from_user/copy_to_user, credentials, and dispatch target.

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.

	/* This is how fork() was meant to be done, 8 instruction entry.
	 *
	 * I questioned the following code briefly, let me clear things
	 * up so you must not reason on it like I did.
	 *
	 * Know the fork_kpsr etc. we use in the sparc32 port?  We don't
	 * need it here because the only piece of window state we copy to
	 * the child is the CWP register.  Even if the parent sleeps,
	 * we are safe because we stuck it into pt_regs of the parent
	 * so it will not change.

Annotation

• Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/sparc.
• Implementation status: core 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.
