Annotated Snippet
#include "basic_asm.h"
#include "vsx_asm.h"
#long check_vsx(vector int *r3);
#This function wraps storeing VSX regs to the end of an array and a
#call to a comparison function in C which boils down to a memcmp()

Annotation
- Immediate include surface: `basic_asm.h`, `vsx_asm.h`.
- 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.
