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

Detected Declarations

• struct ifaddrlblmsg

Annotated Snippet

struct ifaddrlblmsg {
	__u8		ifal_family;		/* Address family */
	__u8		__ifal_reserved;	/* Reserved */
	__u8		ifal_prefixlen;		/* Prefix length */
	__u8		ifal_flags;		/* Flags */
	__u32		ifal_index;		/* Link index */
	__u32		ifal_seq;		/* sequence number */
};

enum {
	IFAL_ADDRESS = 1,
	IFAL_LABEL = 2,
	__IFAL_MAX
};

#define IFAL_MAX	(__IFAL_MAX - 1)

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/types.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct ifaddrlblmsg`.
• 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.
