Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/string.h`.
- Detected declarations: `function guid_equal`, `function guid_copy`, `function import_guid`, `function export_guid`, `function guid_is_null`, `function uuid_equal`, `function uuid_copy`, `function import_uuid`, `function export_uuid`, `function uuid_is_null`.
- 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.
