# include/starkernel/vm/

Headers for the kernel-side VM subsystem (`src/starkernel/vm/`).

- `arena.h` — the capsule arena allocator: fixed-region allocation for
  capsule payload data, separate from `kmalloc`'s general kernel heap.
- `parity.h` — the birth/execution parity-record logger: declares the
  logging interface used to record VM ID, capsule content hash, and
  dictionary hash on every capsule birth, enabling offline
  determinism verification across independent kernel runs.

See `include/starkernel/vm/bootstrap/README.md` for the VM bootstrap
subsystem.
