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.

/**
* DOC: The i915 register macro definition style guide
*
* Follow the style described here for new macros, and while changing existing
* macros. Do **not** mass change existing definitions just to update the style.
*
* File Layout
* ~~~~~~~~~~~
*
* Keep helper macros near the top. For example, _PIPE() and friends.
*
* Prefix macros that generally should not be used outside of this file with
* underscore '_'. For example, _PIPE() and friends, single instances of
* registers that are defined solely for the use by function-like macros.
*
* Avoid using the underscore prefixed macros outside of this file. There are
* exceptions, but keep them to a minimum.
*
* There are two basic types of register definitions: Single registers and
* register groups. Register groups are registers which have two or more
* instances, for example one per pipe, port, transcoder, etc. Register groups
* should be defined using function-like macros.
*
* For single registers, define the register offset first, followed by register
* contents.
*
* For register groups, define the register instance offsets first, prefixed
* with underscore, followed by a function-like macro choosing the right
* instance based on the parameter, followed by register contents.
*
* Define the register contents (i.e. bit and bit field macros) from most
* significant to least significant bit. Indent the register content macros
* using two extra spaces between ``#define`` and the macro name.
*
* Define bit fields using ``REG_GENMASK(h, l)``. Define bit field contents
* using ``REG_FIELD_PREP(mask, value)``. This will define the values already
* shifted in place, so they can be directly OR'd together. For convenience,
* function-like macros may be used to define bit fields, but do note that the
* macros may be needed to read as well as write the register contents.
*
* Define bits using ``REG_BIT(N)``. Do **not** add ``_BIT`` suffix to the name.
*
* Group the register and its contents together without blank lines, separate
* from other registers and their contents with one blank line.
*
* Indent macro values from macro names using TABs. Align values vertically. Use
* braces in macro values as needed to avoid unintended precedence after macro
* substitution. Use spaces in macro values according to kernel coding
* style. Use lower case in hexadecimal values.
*
* Naming
* ~~~~~~
*
* Try to name registers according to the specs. If the register name changes in
* the specs from platform to another, stick to the original name.
*
* Try to reuse existing register macro definitions. Only add new macros for
* new register offsets, or when the register contents have changed enough to
* warrant a full redefinition.
*
* When a register macro changes for a new platform, prefix the new macro using
* the platform acronym or generation. For example, ``SKL_`` or ``GEN8_``. The
* prefix signifies the start platform/generation using the register.
*
* When a bit (field) macro changes or gets added for a new platform, while
* retaining the existing register macro, add a platform acronym or generation
* suffix to the name. For example, ``_SKL`` or ``_GEN8``.
*
* Examples
* ~~~~~~~~
*
* (Note that the values in the example are indented using spaces instead of
* TABs to avoid misalignment in generated documentation. Use TABs in the
* definitions.)::
*
* #define _FOO_A 0xf000
* #define _FOO_B 0xf001
* #define FOO(pipe) _MMIO_PIPE(pipe, _FOO_A, _FOO_B)
* #define FOO_ENABLE REG_BIT(31)
* #define FOO_MODE_MASK REG_GENMASK(19, 16)
* #define FOO_MODE_BAR REG_FIELD_PREP(FOO_MODE_MASK, 0)
* #define FOO_MODE_BAZ REG_FIELD_PREP(FOO_MODE_MASK, 1)
* #define FOO_MODE_QUX_SNB REG_FIELD_PREP(FOO_MODE_MASK, 2)

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.
