Why This File Exists

Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.

• Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.
• Allocates kernel memory; connect allocation flags and lifetime to context constraints.
• 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

• No top-level syscall, struct, function, initcall, or export declaration detected by the generator.

Annotated Snippet

TODO:
- checkpatch.pl fixes
  These checks should be ignored:
    CHECK:ALLOC_SIZEOF_STRUCT: Prefer kmalloc(sizeof(*board->private_data)...) over kmalloc(sizeof(struct xxx_priv)...)
    ./gpio/gpib_bitbang.c:50: ERROR:COMPLEX_MACRO: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parenthese
  This warning will be addressed later:  WARNING:UNDOCUMENTED_DT_STRING: DT compatible string
- resolve XXX notes where possible
- fix FIXME notes
- clean-up commented-out code
- fix typos

Annotation

• Atlas domain: Driver Families / drivers/gpib.
• 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.
