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 ebt_limit_info

Annotated Snippet

struct ebt_limit_info {
	__u32 avg;    /* Average secs between packets * scale */
	__u32 burst;  /* Period multiplier for upper limit. */

	/* Used internally by the kernel */
	unsigned long prev;
	__u32 credit;
	__u32 credit_cap, cost;
};

Annotation

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