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/netfilter/nfnetlink_acct.h

Detected Declarations

• struct nf_acct
• struct xt_nfacct_match_info
• struct xt_nfacct_match_info_v1

Annotated Snippet

struct xt_nfacct_match_info {
	char		name[NFACCT_NAME_MAX];
	struct nf_acct	*nfacct;
};

struct xt_nfacct_match_info_v1 {
	char		name[NFACCT_NAME_MAX];
	struct nf_acct	*nfacct __attribute__((aligned(8)));
};

#endif /* _XT_NFACCT_MATCH_H */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `linux/netfilter/nfnetlink_acct.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct nf_acct`, `struct xt_nfacct_match_info`, `struct xt_nfacct_match_info_v1`.
• 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.
