Phase C of the ACPI fork-sync plan. Applies targeted gap fixes on top
of the synchronized fork foundation (commits 4f2a043 + ae57fe3).
Closes 4 of the 8 critical gaps identified by the 2026-06-30 ACPI
assessment.
Gap 5 - SLP_TYPb PM1b write (acpid/src/acpi.rs):
The previous code wrote SLP_EN+SLP_TYPa to PM1a but silently dropped
SLP_TYPb. On hardware that requires both PM1a and PM1b writes
(some laptops, server boards with split power blocks), the shutdown
was incomplete. Now writes SLP_EN+SLP_TYPb to PM1b when
pm1b_control_block is non-zero. The FADT field is 0 when no
second block exists, in which case we skip the second write.
Gap 6 - parse_lnk_irc range validation (hwd/src/backend/acpi.rs):
The previous code accepted any 16-bit integer as an IRQ
(n AND 0xFFFF), producing "Enabled at IRQ 53313" from misparsed
FieldUnit accessors on QEMU PIIX4. Now validates that the IRQ
value is 2047 or less (the maximum valid legacy-compatible IOAPIC
IRQ). Out-of-range values are debug-logged and skipped instead
of polluting the routing table. Also adds a 15-bit cap on the
Buffer-based IRQ bit extraction (was unchecked).
Gap 3 - AML mutex create/acquire/release (acpid/src/aml_physmem.rs):
The new gitlab acpi crate (Phase B bump) added proper Handler
trait methods for create_mutex, acquire, and release. The previous
implementation was three log debug stubs returning fake success,
which would silently corrupt AML state for any DSDT/SSDT that
uses Mutex. Now implements a real mutex table backed by
std::sync.Mutex of FxHashSet u32:
- create_mutex allocates a unique u32 handle from a counter
- acquire busy-waits with 1ms sleeps until the handle is free
or the AML timeout (multiplied by 1000 for ms to us conversion)
expires; returns AmlError::MutexAcquireTimeout on timeout
- release removes the handle from the held set
Gap 4a - set_global_s_state non-S5 explicit warning (acpid/src/acpi.rs):
The previous code silently returned early when called with any
state other than 5. Now emits a log warn with the requested
state, naming the missing dependencies (_PTS/_WAK AML evaluation,
P-state preservation, wakeup path). This converts a silent failure
into a diagnostic that is visible in the boot log.
Also includes drivers/acpid/src/dmi.rs:158 - convert e.errno
(private field) to e.errno() (method call). The libredox
Error struct changed its errno from a public field to a method
in a newer release; the DmiError::Map(syscall::error::Error)
construction was using the field-access form, which broke the
build against current libredox. This is a build-fix that the
prior dirty tree already had; included here to keep base
buildable.

Phase B of the ACPI fork-sync plan (local/docs/ACPI-FORK-SYNC-STRATEGY-2026-06-30.md).
Pairs with the kernel fork-sync commit 4f2a043.
Restores the base fork to match upstream Redox OS base master for the
ACPI userspace:
- Cargo.toml (workspace):
* Add acpi = { git = "...redox-os/acpi.git", branch = "redox-6.x" }
workspace dependency. The jackpot51/acpi GitHub fork was
deprecated in favor of the gitlab.redox-os.org fork that
tracks the redox-6.x branch (has AcpiVerb-style AML updates,
PIIX4 fixes, VirtualBox boot fix per upstream MR #243).
* Switch redox_syscall from crates.io 0.8.1 to a git ref of
gitlab.redox-os.org/redox-os/syscall.git, with [patch.crates-io]
redirecting crates.io consumers to the gitlab fork. The
crates.io 0.8.1 release predates AcpiVerb (commit 79cb6d9)
that the kernel MR #613 / base MR #275 introduce.
- drivers/acpid/Cargo.toml: acpi.workspace = true.
- drivers/amlserde/Cargo.toml: acpi.workspace = true.
- drivers/hwd/Cargo.toml: add redox_syscall.workspace = true
dependency. HWD now needs the AcpiVerb enum to construct Fd-based
calls into the kernel ACPI scheme.
- drivers/amlserde/src/lib.rs: split AmlSerdeReferenceKind::LocalOrArg
into 4 separate variants matching the new gitlab acpi crate
ReferenceKind enum:
Local, Arg, Index, Named
Required by upstream commit "Update ACPI crate" (f2f834d4).
- drivers/acpid/src/main.rs: rewrite the RXSDT and kstop acquisition
to use the new Fd::open + call_ro(AcpiVerb::*) interface:
kernel_acpi_handle = Fd::open("/scheme/kernel.acpi", O_CLOEXEC, 0)
rxsdt = kernel_acpi_handle.call_ro(buf, READ, &[ReadRxsdt])
shutdown_pipe = kernel_acpi_handle.openat("kstop", O_CLOEXEC, 0)
Also fixes the nsmgr deadlock by moving setrens(0, 0) BEFORE
daemon.ready() (upstream commit 9dd6901d).
- drivers/hwd/src/backend/acpi.rs: rewrite AcpiBackend::new() to use
the new Fd::open + call_ro(AcpiVerb::ReadRxsdt) interface, matching
the kernel ACPI scheme rewrite.
