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.
- Exports symbols or registers init work; inspect boot/module ordering and who consumes the exported contract.
- Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/init.h`, `linux/export.h`, `asm/processor.h`, `asm/hypervisor.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function parse_nopv`, `function detect_hypervisor_vendor`, `function copy_array`, `function init_hypervisor_platform`, `export x86_hyper_type`.
- Atlas domain: Architecture Layer / arch/x86.
- Implementation status: integration 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.
