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

• linux/aio_abi.h

Detected Declarations

• struct kioctx
• struct kiocb
• struct mm_struct
• function exit_aio

Annotated Snippet

static inline void exit_aio(struct mm_struct *mm) { }
static inline void kiocb_set_cancel_fn(struct kiocb *req,
				       kiocb_cancel_fn *cancel) { }
#endif /* CONFIG_AIO */

#endif /* __LINUX__AIO_H */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/aio_abi.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct kioctx`, `struct kiocb`, `struct mm_struct`, `function exit_aio`.
• Atlas domain: Core OS / Core Kernel Interface.
• 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.
