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.

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.
