IMPROVEMENT-PLAN.md §10.3 item 7: HIGH severity transmute audit.
mac80211.rs:469:
- RxCallback type changed from extern "C" fn to unsafe extern "C" fn
- Callback call now wrapped in unsafe { } (correct for FFI callback)
- Added SAFETY comment: explains HashMap<usize,usize> storage pattern
and why usize→fn pointer transmute is sound (same size, valid ABI)
timer.rs:202:
- Added SAFETY comment: explains Linux kernel timer callback ABI
(setup_timer/mod_timer always uses void (*)(unsigned long))
- transmute remains (necessary: usize from C → fn pointer)
Both transmutes are now documented with soundness invariants.
No actual UB was found — both transmutes were already safe.
The fix is documentation, not behavioral change.
Add channel/band/rate/BSS/RX-TX structures to linux-kpi wireless
scaffolding (mac80211.rs, wireless.rs, net.rs, C headers), extend
redbear-iwlwifi linux_port.c with comprehensive PCIe transport, and
create consolidated CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md as the canonical
desktop path document. Remove stale INTEGRATION_REPORT.md (1388 lines)
in favor of current local/docs/ references. Update AGENTS.md, README,
and docs index to point to the new plan.
Derivative of Redox OS (https://www.redox-os.org) adding:
- AMD GPU driver (amdgpu) via LinuxKPI compat layer
- ext4 filesystem support (ext4d scheme daemon)
- ACPI fixes for AMD bare metal (x2APIC, DMAR, IVRS, MCFG)
- Custom branding (hostname, os-release, boot identity)
Build system is full upstream Redox with RBOS overlay in local/.
Patches for kernel, base, and relibc are symlinked from local/patches/
and protected from make clean/distclean. Custom recipes live in
local/recipes/ with symlinks into the recipes/ search path.
Build: make all CONFIG_NAME=redbear-full
Sync: ./local/scripts/sync-upstream.sh
