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

• No C-style include directives detected by the generator.

Detected Declarations

• struct net_device
• struct netdev_xmit

Annotated Snippet

struct netdev_xmit {
	u16 recursion;
	u8  more;
#ifdef CONFIG_NET_EGRESS
	u8  skip_txqueue;
#endif
#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NET_ACT_MIRRED)
	u8			sched_mirred_nest;
	struct net_device	*sched_mirred_dev[MIRRED_NEST_LIMIT];
#endif
#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_DUP_NETDEV)
	u8 nf_dup_skb_recursion;
#endif
};

Annotation

• Detected declarations: `struct net_device`, `struct netdev_xmit`.
• 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.
