Why This File Exists

Shared kernel service surface used by multiple subsystems, including helpers, cryptography, virtualization support, and async I/O infrastructure.

• Shared kernel service surface used by multiple subsystems, including helpers, cryptography, virtualization support, and async I/O infrastructure.
• 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.

Dependency Surface

• crypto/blake2b.h
• crypto/internal/hash.h
• linux/kernel.h
• linux/module.h

Detected Declarations

• struct blake2b_tfm_ctx
• function crypto_blake2b_setkey
• function crypto_blake2b_init
• function crypto_blake2b_update
• function crypto_blake2b_final
• function crypto_blake2b_digest
• function crypto_blake2b_mod_init
• function crypto_blake2b_mod_exit
• module init crypto_blake2b_mod_init

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.
