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.
• Defines or uses C structs; map object ownership, embedded links, reference counts, and lock ownership.

Dependency Surface

• datapath.h
• vport.h

Detected Declarations

• No top-level syscall, struct, function, initcall, or export declaration detected by the generator.

Annotated Snippet

#ifndef VPORT_INTERNAL_DEV_H
#define VPORT_INTERNAL_DEV_H 1

#include "datapath.h"
#include "vport.h"

int ovs_is_internal_dev(const struct net_device *);
struct vport *ovs_internal_dev_get_vport(struct net_device *);
int ovs_internal_dev_rtnl_link_register(void);
void ovs_internal_dev_rtnl_link_unregister(void);

#endif /* vport-internal_dev.h */

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `datapath.h`, `vport.h`.
• Atlas domain: Networking Core / Sockets, Protocols, Packet Path, And Network Policy.
• 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.
