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

• hashtab.h

Detected Declarations

• struct symtab

Annotated Snippet

struct symtab {
	struct hashtab table; /* hash table (keyed on a string) */
	u32 nprim; /* number of primary names in table */
};

int symtab_init(struct symtab *s, u32 size);

int symtab_insert(struct symtab *s, char *name, void *datum);
void *symtab_search(const struct symtab *s, const char *name);

Annotation

• Immediate include surface: `hashtab.h`.
• Detected declarations: `struct symtab`.
• Atlas domain: Core OS / Security And Isolation.
• 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.
