Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `linux/refcount.h`, `net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.h`, `net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_zones.h`.
- Detected declarations: `struct nf_conntrack_expect`, `struct nf_conntrack_expect_policy`, `function nf_ct_exp_zone_equal_any`, `function nf_ct_unlink_expect`, `function nf_ct_expect_related`.
- 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.
