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.
- Uses kernel synchronization; read lock ordering, sleepability, and interrupt context assumptions before translating.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/types.h`, `linux/kernel.h`, `linux/sched.h`, `asm/openprom.h`, `asm/oplib.h`, `linux/string.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function prom_nbputchar`, `function prom_console_write_buf`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/sparc.
- Implementation status: source implementation candidate.
- Synchronization appears in or near this file; preserve lock ordering, sleepability, and interrupt-context constraints.
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.
