Why This File Exists

Core operating-system implementation surface: boot, tasks, memory, VFS, syscall-facing interfaces, synchronization, credentials, and isolation.

• Core operating-system implementation surface: boot, tasks, memory, VFS, syscall-facing interfaces, synchronization, credentials, and isolation.
• Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Dependency Surface

• inode.h

Detected Declarations

• struct ntfs_name

Annotated Snippet

struct ntfs_name {
	u64 mref;
	u8 type;
	u8 len;
	__le16 name[];
} __packed;

/* The little endian Unicode string $I30 as a global constant. */
extern __le16 I30[5];

		const __le16 *uname, const int uname_len, struct ntfs_name **res);
int ntfs_check_empty_dir(struct ntfs_inode *ni, struct mft_record *ni_mrec);

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `inode.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct ntfs_name`.
• Atlas domain: Core OS / VFS And Filesystem Core.
• 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.
