Why This File Exists

Networking stack implementation surface: socket APIs, protocol dispatch, packet flow, routing, filtering, and network namespaces.

• Networking stack implementation surface: socket APIs, protocol dispatch, packet flow, routing, filtering, and network namespaces.
• Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Dependency Surface

• linux/skbuff.h
• linux/slab.h
• linux/netdevice.h

Detected Declarations

• struct gro_cell
• struct gro_cells

Annotated Snippet

struct gro_cells {
	struct gro_cell __percpu	*cells;
};

int gro_cells_receive(struct gro_cells *gcells, struct sk_buff *skb);
int gro_cells_init(struct gro_cells *gcells, struct net_device *dev);
void gro_cells_destroy(struct gro_cells *gcells);

#endif

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/skbuff.h`, `linux/slab.h`, `linux/netdevice.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct gro_cell`, `struct gro_cells`.
• Atlas domain: Networking Core / Sockets, Protocols, Packet Path, And Network Policy.
• 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.
