Why This File Exists
Shared kernel service surface used by multiple subsystems, including helpers, cryptography, virtualization support, and async I/O infrastructure.
- Shared kernel service surface used by multiple subsystems, including helpers, cryptography, virtualization support, and async I/O infrastructure.
- Exports symbols or registers init work; inspect boot/module ordering and who consumes the exported contract.
- Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

/**
* asn1_ber_decoder - Decoder BER/DER/CER ASN.1 according to pattern
* @decoder: The decoder definition (produced by asn1_compiler)
* @context: The caller's context (to be passed to the action functions)
* @data: The encoded data
* @datalen: The size of the encoded data
*
* Decode BER/DER/CER encoded ASN.1 data according to a bytecode pattern
* produced by asn1_compiler. Action functions are called on marked tags to
* allow the caller to retrieve significant data.
*
* LIMITATIONS:
*
* To keep down the amount of stack used by this function, the following limits
* have been imposed:
*
* (1) This won't handle datalen > 65535 without increasing the size of the
* cons stack elements and length_too_long checking.
*
* (2) The stack of constructed types is 10 deep. If the depth of non-leaf
* constructed types exceeds this, the decode will fail.
*
* (3) The SET type (not the SET OF type) isn't really supported as tracking
* what members of the set have been seen is a pain.

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.
