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.
• Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Dependency Surface

• linux/vmw_vmci_defs.h

Detected Declarations

• enum vmci_route

Annotated Snippet

#ifndef _VMCI_ROUTE_H_
#define _VMCI_ROUTE_H_

#include <linux/vmw_vmci_defs.h>

enum vmci_route {
	VMCI_ROUTE_NONE,
	VMCI_ROUTE_AS_HOST,
	VMCI_ROUTE_AS_GUEST,
};

int vmci_route(struct vmci_handle *src, const struct vmci_handle *dst,
	       bool from_guest, enum vmci_route *route);

#endif /* _VMCI_ROUTE_H_ */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/vmw_vmci_defs.h`.
• Detected declarations: `enum vmci_route`.
• Atlas domain: Driver Families / drivers/misc.
• Implementation status: source 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.
