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.
- Allocates kernel memory; connect allocation flags and lifetime to context constraints.
Dependency Surface
linux/interrupt.hlinux/threads.hasm/tlbflush.hasm/fixmap.hasm/pgtable_areas.h
Detected Declarations
- No top-level syscall, struct, function, initcall, or export declaration detected by the generator.

* Ordering is:

* high memory on: high_memory off:
* FIXADDR_TOP FIXADDR_TOP
* fixed addresses fixed addresses
* FIXADDR_START FIXADDR_START
* temp fixed addresses/persistent kmap area VMALLOC_END
* PKMAP_BASE temp fixed addresses/vmalloc area
* VMALLOC_END VMALLOC_START
* vmalloc area high_memory
* VMALLOC_START
* high_memory
*
* The temp fixed area is only used during boot for early_ioremap(), and
* it is unused when the ioremap() is functional. vmalloc/pkmap area become
* available after early boot so the temp fixed area is available for re-use.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/interrupt.h`, `linux/threads.h`, `asm/tlbflush.h`, `asm/fixmap.h`, `asm/pgtable_areas.h`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/x86.
- 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.
