Why This File Exists

Repository support layer: documentation, build tooling, samples, user-space helper tools, generated initramfs support, licenses, and validation utilities.

• Repository support layer: documentation, build tooling, samples, user-space helper tools, generated initramfs support, licenses, and validation utilities.
• Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Dependency Surface

• No C-style include directives detected by the generator.

Detected Declarations

• struct ieee802154_ops

Annotated Snippet

struct ieee802154_ops {
        ...
        int     (*start)(struct ieee802154_hw *hw);
        void    (*stop)(struct ieee802154_hw *hw);
        ...
        int     (*xmit_async)(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb);
        int     (*ed)(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 *level);
        int     (*set_channel)(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 page, u8 channel);
        ...
   };

.. c:function:: int start(struct ieee802154_hw *hw)

Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for the hardware device initialization.

.. c:function:: void stop(struct ieee802154_hw *hw)

Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for the hardware device cleanup.

.. c:function:: int xmit_async(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, struct sk_buff *skb)

Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for each frame in the skb going to be
transmitted through the hardware device.

.. c:function:: int ed(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 *level)

Handler that 802.15.4 module calls for Energy Detection from the hardware
device.

.. c:function:: int set_channel(struct ieee802154_hw *hw, u8 page, u8 channel)

Set radio for listening on specific channel of the hardware device.

Moreover IEEE 802.15.4 device operations structure should be filled.

Annotation

• Detected declarations: `struct ieee802154_ops`.
• Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / Documentation.
• Implementation status: atlas-only.

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.
