All submodules (kernel, bootloader, redoxfs, userutils, installer, base)
use path = '../libredox', '../syscall', '../redox-scheme' to reference
sibling forks. When the cookbook copies these to recipes/core/<name>/source/,
Cargo resolves the relative paths from the copy location, not the symlink
target. Added symlinks at the recipe level so all resolutions go through
the same path: recipes/core/<name>/<dep> → local/sources/<dep>.
- recipes/dev/python312/recipe.toml: use COOKBOOK_TOOLCHAIN for
--with-build-python instead of /tmp/python312, which the build system
never stages. Add [ -x ] guard for clear failure on missing dev-dep.
- recipes/core/userutils/recipe.toml: switch from upstream git URL to
local fork (local/sources/userutils/) per the local fork model. The
upstream source opens /scheme/pty/ptmx which the ptyd scheme does not
recognize; the local fork opens /scheme/pty correctly and avoids the
getty PTY panic.
- local/scripts/build-preflight.sh: warn when a recipe build script
references /tmp/<known-package>/, since the cookbook does not stage
host dev-deps under /tmp/<name>. Points authors at COOKBOOK_TOOLCHAIN.
- local/scripts/build-redbear.sh: replace 'tail -1 || true' on pre-cook
failures with proper error capture, last-50-lines tail on failure, and
exit-1. Verify the pkgar exists after a successful cook.
Base: fix P6-driver-new-modules.patch (ed format -> unified diff) for new
driver modules (ncq, itr, phy). P6-driver-main-fixes.patch now applies with
offset on current upstream source.
Relibc: remove stale P5-named-semaphores (upstream has stubs), add
P10-stack-size-8mb and P11-getrlimit-getrusage (per-process rlimit table,
sysconf integration, getdtablesize fix, null-pointer safety).
Kernel: consolidate 29 individual patches into single redbear-consolidated.patch.
Userutils: P5-redbear-branding replaces P4-login-rate-limit.
Recipe.toml changes now committed so they survive source resets.
P2-2: Login rate limiting (userutils/login.rs):
- Tracks consecutive failures, resets on success
- 3+ failures: exponential delay up to 30 seconds
- Applies to both password and blank-password login paths
P2-3: Network stack in initfs (base-initfs + service files):
- Added e1000d, rtl8168d to base-initfs BINS
- 60_smolnetd.service: network stack in initfs
- 61_dhcpd.service: DHCP client in initfs
- Network available before switch_root
Part of COMPREHENSIVE-FIX-AND-IMPROVEMENT-PLAN Phases P2.
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).
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
