Annotated Snippet

For --xed the xed tool is needed. Here is how to install it:

  $ git clone https://github.com/intelxed/mbuild.git mbuild
  $ git clone https://github.com/intelxed/xed
  $ cd xed
  $ ./mfile.py --share
  $ ./mfile.py examples
  $ sudo ./mfile.py --prefix=/usr/local install
  $ sudo ldconfig
  $ sudo cp obj/examples/xed /usr/local/bin

Basic xed testing:

  $ xed | head -3

Annotation

• Atlas domain: Support Tooling And Documentation / tools.
• Implementation status: atlas-only.

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.
