Phase B1+B2 from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT:
- 45_usbscsid.service: USB mass storage driver in initfs (requires xhcid)
- 30_redox-drm.service: DRM/KMS display driver in initfs (requires hwd+pcid-spawner)
Both condition-architecture-gated to x86/x86_64.
Phase A1 from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT. The ACPI shutdown path now:
- Validates PM1a port is non-zero before writing
- Waits 3 seconds for power-off, then retries with PM1b+SLEEP_EN
- Falls back to keyboard controller reset (0x64=0xFE) on failure
- Handles SLP_TYPb correctly
- Removes fragile Pio::new()+write() without validation
logd now writes all log output to /var/log/system.log (5MB auto-rotation)
in addition to existing scheme listeners. Falls back to /tmp/logd-fallback.log
if /var/log is unavailable. Logs survive reboots for post-mortem analysis.
Part of Phase A2 (Boot Reliability) from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT-2026-05-03.
The 556MB monolithic redox.patch was impossible to manage, unreviewable,
blocked GitHub pushes, and could only grow. This commit:
- Moves all 64 absorbed patches from absorbed/ to active use in base/
- Removes the absorbed/ directory (consolidation history is now PATCH-HISTORY.md)
- Removes the redox.patch symlink from recipes/core/base/
- Fixes all recipe symlinks to point to active patches (not absorbed/)
- Patches are now individually wired, reviewable, and independently rebasable
The redox.patch mega-file is no longer needed — individual patches
are applied directly from the recipe.toml patches list.
Build system (src/cook/fetch.rs):
- Atomic patch application: applies patches to staging directory (cp -al),
atomically swaps on success, discards on failure — source tree is never
left in a partially-patched state
- normalize_patch(): strips diff --git/index/new-file-mode headers that the
build system's patch command does not recognize
- cleanup_workspace_pollution(): removes orphaned recipes/Cargo.toml and
recipes/Cargo.lock to prevent workspace conflicts
- Added --allow-protected CLI flag to repo binary
Input stack (local/patches/base/P3-*.patch):
- P3-ps2d-led-feedback: PS/2 LED state handling + InputProducer migration
- P3-inputd-keymap-bridge: InputProducer enum, keymap bridge query
- P3-usbhidd-hardening: HID descriptor validation, static lookup table,
8-button mouse support, transfer retry with exponential backoff
- P3-init-colored-output: ANSI-color coded init daemon output (green OK,
red FAILED, yellow SKIP/WARN)
XKB bridge (local/recipes/system/redbear-keymapd/source/src/xkb.rs):
- Parses X11 xkb/symbols/* format, maps XKB keycodes to PS/2 scancodes,
80+ X11 keysym names to Unicode, 4-level key support
Patch governance (local/patches/base/absorbed/README.md):
- Documents consolidation of P0-P3 patches into redox.patch
Finalize all non-artifact changes accumulated from other sessions:
- config updates, recipe changes, source edits, patches
- pkgar/cache artifacts intentionally excluded (build outputs)
This is the maximum achievable scope for this session.
Hardware-accelerated KDE blocked by: QML gate, KWin/Plasma builds,
hardware GPU validation — all require build system + physical GPU.
- plasma-workspace: stub deps deferrable, not unresolved blockers
- knewstuff/kwallet: deferrable (not blocking plasma builds)
- make all vs make live distinction for rebuild
Verified in QEMU: compositor runs, no exceptions, DRM active.
Greeter reaches 'compositor ready, launching greeter UI'.
All canaries present. Boot completes to login prompt.
Add three relibc patches (42 total) to close QtNetwork-critical socket gaps:
- P3-inet6-pton-ntop: AF_INET6 address parsing/formatting with RFC 5952
shorthand, IPv4-mapped suffix support
- P3-tcp-sockopt-forward: forward IPPROTO_TCP getsockopt/setsockopt to
scheme daemon instead of hitting todo_skip
- P3-dns-aaaa-getaddrinfo-ipv6: AAAA DNS record queries, lookup_host_v6,
dual-stack getaddrinfo with sockaddr_in6 entries
Also fix P3-tcp-nodelay to use sys_call_wo + from_raw_parts (const) in the
SOL_SOCKET setsockopt fallback — setsockopt sends data to the kernel, not
reads from it.
The 17,046-line redox.patch monolith is no longer referenced in the base
recipe. All 27 individual P2 patches are now listed explicitly in
recipe.toml with symlinks to local/patches/base/.
Coverage gap closed: ixgbed/src/device.rs was the only file not covered
by any individual patch. Added P2-ixgbed-error-handling.patch for the
10GbE Intel driver error handling (println → log::info/warn/error).
Build verified: CI=1 make r.base completes successfully with the new
patch list. The monolith file is preserved as backup but no longer applied.
Enforce that every source-tree edit must be mirrored to local/patches/
and wired into recipe.toml in the same session. Apply the policy
retroactively to userutils res/issue and res/motd (Redox → Red Bear).
relibc select_epoll() forced timeout=0 when any FD doesn't support epoll
(e.g. TTY on Redox), causing busy-loop. Poll with 100ms interval instead.
Also add stdint.h to signal/cbindgen.toml sys_includes so signalfd_siginfo
struct types (uint32_t, int32_t) resolve without build errors.
Upstream relibc netdb DNS lookup has two bugs exposed by Rust 2024 edition
strict unsafe handling:
1. packet_data is moved into Box::via into_boxed_slice() but the retry
loop tries to call packet_data.as_ptr() on the moved value. Use the
already-created raw pointer packet_data_ptr instead.
2. close() is a safe function in relibc, so wrapping it in unsafe{}
triggers unused-unsafe (promoted to error by -D unused-unsafe). Remove
the unnecessary unsafe blocks around close() calls.
Patch carries in local/patches/relibc/P3-netdb-lookup-retry-fix.patch and
is applied via the relibc recipe patches list.
- IOAPIC: enable full IOAPIC initialization on AMD/Intel bare metal,
dual GSI 0/2 timer mapping for platform compatibility, NMI handler
uses raw COM1 PIO writes to avoid mutex deadlock
- HPET: counter validation, graceful fallback to PIT when HPET missing
- PS/2: fix 0xFE RESEND handling in all MouseState variants, add
controller flush/self-test retry/aux port test from Linux 7.0
- ACPI: defer AML evaluation to avoid blocking initfs driver spawn
- VT chain: remove duplicate rootfs service files (inputd, vesad,
fbcond, getty) that were already handled by initfs phase 1 and the
legacy 30_console script from minimal.toml
- QEMU verified: boots to login prompt, 20 rootfs units (was 26),
single login prompt (was double), only 1 expected error (wifictl)
215 fixes across 33 Rust source files replacing unwrap/expect/panic
with graceful error handling in init, all boot-critical daemons,
and the six graphics driver packages. Fixes inverted scheduler
conditions_met() logic that prevented rootfs from mounting.
- Use full 40-char commit hash in base recipe.toml so the cookbook's
caching logic correctly recognizes already-fetched sources (short
hashes always missed the cache, causing patches to re-apply on top
of already-patched source).
- Add git clean -fd before git reset --hard in fetch.rs so untracked
files from previous patch applications are removed before re-patching.
- Remove ehcid/ohcid/uhcid from base-initfs BINS list (same fix as
base recipe, these drivers don't exist in the current upstream).
With these fixes, redbear-live-mini builds and boots to login prompt in QEMU.
Pin the base source to commit 463f76b9 so that redox.patch and our
P2 patches apply cleanly. Remove ehcid/ohcid/uhcid from BINS since
they don't exist in this upstream version.
- Add /scheme/acpi/resources/<device> endpoint to acpid for _CRS evaluation
- Extract acpi-resource shared crate (917 lines) with ResourceDescriptor types
- Eliminate duplicate type definitions in 5 consumers (i2c-hidd, dw-acpi-i2cd,
intel-thc-hidd, i2c-gpio-expanderd, ucsid)
- Add P2-acpi-i2c-resources.patch (48KB) with all source changes
- Update ACPI-I2C-HID-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md to reflect actual codebase state
Consolidate the active desktop path around redbear-full while landing the greeter/session stack and the runtime fixes needed to keep Wayland and KWin bring-up moving forward.
Keep the relibc compatibility work in tracked local patch carriers and align the recipe with the full durable patch stack so clean reapply and rebuild paths stay reproducible.

Keep the relibc overlay consistent so the generated stdlib header preserves C linkage for strtold and the existing toolchain can still satisfy stale C++ callers while it is refreshed.
