Why This File Exists
Networking stack implementation surface: socket APIs, protocol dispatch, packet flow, routing, filtering, and network namespaces.
- Networking stack implementation surface: socket APIs, protocol dispatch, packet flow, routing, filtering, and network namespaces.
- 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.

/*
* find the offset to specified header or the protocol number of last header

* "No next header".
*
* Note that *offset is used as input/output parameter, and if it is not zero,
* then it must be a valid offset to an inner IPv6 header. This can be used
* to explore inner IPv6 header, eg. ICMPv6 error messages.
*
* If target header is found, its offset is set in *offset and return protocol
* number. Otherwise, return -1.

* If the first fragment doesn't contain the final protocol header or

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.
