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/types.h

Detected Declarations

• struct cpio_data

Annotated Snippet

struct cpio_data {
	void *data;
	size_t size;
	char name[MAX_CPIO_FILE_NAME];
};

struct cpio_data find_cpio_data(const char *path, void *data, size_t len,
				long *offset);

#endif /* _LINUX_EARLYCPIO_H */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/types.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct cpio_data`.
• 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.
