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
• uapi/linux/module_signature.h

Detected Declarations

• No top-level syscall, struct, function, initcall, or export declaration detected by the generator.

Annotated Snippet

#ifndef _LINUX_MODULE_SIGNATURE_H
#define _LINUX_MODULE_SIGNATURE_H

#include <linux/types.h>
#include <uapi/linux/module_signature.h>

int mod_check_sig(const struct module_signature *ms, size_t file_len,
		  const char *name);

#endif /* _LINUX_MODULE_SIGNATURE_H */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/types.h`, `uapi/linux/module_signature.h`.
• 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.
