- Remove two dead pub fn render free functions (render.rs + mod.rs)
- Remove debug_raw_event/should_log_raw_event (always-on /tmp logging)
- Move use std::sync::Arc to top of dispatch.rs
- Fix unused imports from dead code removal
The poll-based event loop (rustix::event::poll with 200ms timeout) broke
terminal size detection on Redox. When tui.size() returned (0,0) via
unwrap_or_default() after a failed dup(1,"winsize"), the size-change
check would clear the screen and render nothing.
Ratatui's draw() already calls autoresize() on every frame, which queries
backend.size() and resizes buffers automatically. The manual size check
and poll-based wake-up were redundant and harmful.
Reverted to the original blocking-read approach that worked on Redox:
stdin.lock().events_and_raw().next() → process key → render()
Resize is detected on the next keypress via ratatui's built-in autoresize.
MC uses SIGWINCH→self-pipe→select(stdin+pipe) for resize detection.
In safe Rust (#![deny(unsafe_code)]), the equivalent is polling stdin
with a 200ms timeout via rustix::event::poll. This wakes the main loop
every 200ms even without key input, allowing terminal size check and
full redraw on resize. Same result as MC's signal-driven approach
without requiring unsafe signal handlers.
Previously the event loop blocked indefinitely on events.next() —
terminal resize was only detected on the next keypress.
- Split filemanager/mod.rs into dispatch.rs, render.rs, dialog_ops.rs,
format_utils.rs (3567→~1200 lines in mod.rs)
- Comment out mc in redbear-mini.toml and redbear-full.toml per user request
- Enable tlc in redbear-full.toml (was temporarily disabled)
- 1022 tests pass, zero behavior changes
Both open_file() functions were stubs that opened the file but never
launched the terminal interface. tlcedit/tlcview would silently exit
without displaying anything.
- editor::open_file(): create Tui, render editor, run key event loop,
handle Save/Close/SaveThenClose/DiscardThenClose results
- viewer::open_file(): create Tui, render viewer, run key event loop,
exit when handle_key returns true
TLC (Twilight Commander) was missing from both ISO configs. Added
tlc = {} to [packages] in redbear-mini.toml and redbear-full.toml.
Created missing symlink: recipes/tui/tlc -> ../../local/recipes/tui/tlc.
Alt-Shift-Right grows left panel 5%, Alt-Shift-Left shrinks 5%.
Alt-= resets to 50/50. Range clamped to 10-90%.
panel_areas() uses split_ratio when equal_split is false.
3 new tests. 976 tests total, 0 failures.
Panel now enters archives (.tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz, .zip,
.cpio) when pressing Enter, browsing their contents like directories.
Pressing '..' at the archive root exits back to the local filesystem.
Three new Panel fields: vfs (Box<dyn Vfs> backend), vfs_path (VfsPath
inside archive), vfs_archive (local PathBuf of archive file).
New methods: try_enter_archive(), replace_directory_vfs(),
display_path(), is_in_vfs(), is_archive_extension() helper.
Title bar shows 'archive.tar:/inner/path' when browsing inside an
archive via synthesized display path.
5 new tests for archive extension detection (case-insensitive).
964 tests total, 0 failures.
New filehighlight.rs module categorizes files by extension into 9 types
(Normal, Executable, Archive, Audio, Video, Image, Source, Documentation,
Database). Each type maps to a theme palette color via file_type_color().
entry_style() in mod.rs now applies file type colors for non-directory,
non-symlink files. Executable detection uses permission bits (owner_exec
|| group_exec || other_exec).
13 new unit tests covering all categories, case insensitivity, hidden
files, and edge cases. 959 tests total, 0 failures.
Core fixes to get redbear-mini building and booting via UEFI:
relibc: Use 'VaListImpl as va_list' in syslog so cbindgen outputs va_list
instead of unknown VaListImpl type (matches stdio pattern). Fixes
openssl3 and all C consumers of syslog.h.
base fork (f97da5b0): ps2d missing info! import, ps2d dead variable,
fbcond drm-0.15 API fix, acpid 31 errors (ivrs/mcfg modules, duplicate
methods, packed fields, dmar copy-paste bug), bootstrap abort_immediate
removal (feature removed from nightly)
redox-driver-sys: Add PciQuirkFlags re-export for crate-root imports
bash: Regenerate P1-mksyntax-host-headers.patch with proper unified diff
m4: Fix getlocalename_l unsafe wrapper
config: Comment out mc (requires glib-2.0 chain, not needed for mini)
UEFI boot verified in QEMU — boots to RedBear login prompt.

The build-redbear.sh script was applying patches from local/patches/ to
recipes/core/{kernel,base,relibc,installer}/source/ via apply_patch_dir().
For path= (local fork) components, recipes/core/<comp>/source is a SYMLINK
to local/sources/<comp>. The patches went through the symlink and modified
the fork directly — re-adding old code like SchedPolicy that was already
removed from the fork.
This was the root cause of the kernel source reversion bug that caused
intermittent build failures (V157, V159): old patches re-applying stale
code to the synced fork through symlinks.
Fix:
- Remove apply_patch_dir calls for kernel, base, relibc, installer
(all use path= local fork model — changes are committed to the fork)
- Keep apply_patch_dir for bootloader (still uses git= + patches)
- Remove stash_nested_repo_if_dirty for relibc (no patches to stash)
- Update verify-overlay-integrity.sh expected patch symlinks
- Update apply-patches.sh to not create kernel/base patch symlinks
- Fix 005-qtbase signature marker (wrong path: libs → wip/qt)
- Remove 78 old patch symlinks from recipes/core/kernel/ (cleanup)
Aligns all Red Bear custom recipe dependencies with the syscall 0.8.x
version used by the upstream-synced base and relibc forks.

The redox arm of acquire_iopl was using 'crate::Result' which is a
1-generic type alias. Use std::result::Result<(), Error> instead.
Also rename unused 'product' param to '_product' in lookup_hid_quirks.
io.rs uses redox_syscall::dup, ::CallFlags, ::ProcSchemeVerb but was
missing the 'use syscall as redox_syscall' alias (was removed earlier
because cargo check passed locally without it, but actual build needs it).
Also fixed: the non-redox arm of acquire_iopl was using crate::Result
which is a 1-generic type alias; std::result::Result with 2 generics
is what's needed here.
Removed leftover cfg attribute and duplicate use crate::Result.
usbhidd references redox_driver_sys::quirks::HidQuirkFlags and
redox_driver_sys::quirks::lookup_hid_quirks. Add these to unblock
HID driver compilation.
Add types referenced by acpid/pcid/xhcid but missing from redox-driver-sys:
- AcpiQuirkFlags: 15 flag variants (OSI disable, battery, lid, sleep)
- ChipsetQuirkFlags, ClocksourceQuirkFlags, CpuBugFlags, UsbAudioQuirkFlags:
empty bitflag structs (full implementation is follow-up)
- ConfigWriteWidth enum, QuirkAction enum, PciConfigWriter trait
- PciQuirkLookup struct, lookup_pci_quirks_full function
- XhciControllerQuirkFlags: 7 variants
- lookup_xhci_controller_quirks_full function
- load_dmi_acpi_quirks function
- Missing PciQuirkFlags: NO_PM_RESET, NO_FLR, BROKEN_INTX_MASKING, NO_PME
- Default impl on PciQuirkFlags (required by lookup return)
Also restored 'use syscall as redox_syscall' alias to all source files
since the redox_syscall crate (0.7.x and 0.8.x) exposes itself as 'syscall'.
This unblocks compilation of base fork's pcid, acpid, xhcid daemons.
Base fork workspace pins redox_syscall = '0.7.4' (resolves to 0.7.5).
Without this pin, redox-driver-sys pulls in 0.8.1, causing type mismatches
in downstream crates like driver-graphics that use both 0.7.5 and 0.8.1
types in the same expression.
The redox_syscall crate (0.7.x and 0.8.x) has [lib].name = 'syscall',
so the crate is exposed as 'syscall' in source code, not 'redox_syscall'.
Without the alias, all 'use redox_syscall::...' imports fail to resolve.
Also fixed:
- lib.rs:46,86 'redox_syscall::error::Error' (now resolves via alias)
- io.rs:23 'Result<()>' -> 'Result<(), crate::DriverError>' (Result needs 2 generics)
- Cargo.toml: pin redox_syscall to 0.7 to match the rest of base fork
This restores redox-driver-sys compilation against base fork 0.2.3
reset to redbear-working.
Top-level + local docs audit (2026-06-18). Findings and fixes:
1. AGENTS.md CONVENTIONS section — corrected 'my-' prefix contradiction.
The legacy 'my-*' prefix is deprecated and git-ignored. Use 'redbear-*'
for tracked first-class configs.
2. README.md quick-start — promoted 'local/scripts/build-redbear.sh' to
the recommended entry point. Bare 'scripts/run.sh --build' remains as
a secondary path. Added note about build-redbear.sh's policy gates
(.config checking, REDBEAR_ALLOW_PROTECTED_FETCH=1).
3. docs/06-BUILD-SYSTEM-SETUP.md — restructured Building section to put
'build-redbear.sh' first, then 'make all' as legacy/advanced with
clear notes on what gates it bypasses.
4. docs/05-KDE-PLASMA-ON-REDOX.md — replaced 'Stub-only package for
dependency resolution' wording for kirigami. Per project policy
(local/AGENTS.md STUB AND WORKAROUND POLICY — ZERO TOLERANCE),
stubs are forbidden. The kirigami build is blocked at the QML gate;
the recipe is honest and ships no fake/fallback package.
5. local/docs/BUILD-TOOLS-PORTING-PLAN.md — replaced all 'python312'
references with 'python314' (matches V8.3 P0 bump from earlier).
6. local/AGENTS.md — added 'LOCAL RECIPE SOURCE IMMUTABILITY' section
documenting the cb8b093564 guarantee. Any path matching
/local/recipes/ is unconditionally immutable; no env var or flag
can override. REDBEAR_ALLOW_LOCAL_UNFETCH=1 was removed as a kill
switch and is now dead code. distclean-nuclear is now a no-op for
local recipes.
Internal Red Bear subprojects (tlc, redbear-*, redbear-greeter, etc.) live
under local/recipes/* and have no upstream source — they are committed to
our own gitea only. If lost, they cannot be recovered from any public
source.
The previous guard used is_local_overlay() && !redbear_allow_local_unfetch()
which could be bypassed by setting REDBEAR_ALLOW_LOCAL_UNFETCH=1. This was
triggered inadvertently (exact trigger unknown) and destroyed the source
tree of local/recipes/tui/tlc/source/.
This commit makes the protection UNCONDITIONAL:
- is_local_overlay() already correctly identifies any path under
local/recipes/ as internal.
- The handle_clean unfetch path now refuses ALL local/recipes/* sources
with a clear error message. No env var can override this.
- The fetch() path's git-reset/git-clean-ffdx and source-wipe guards now
also refuse local overlays unconditionally.
- The dead redbear_allow_local_unfetch() function is removed.
- Makefile distclean-nuclear target is documented as a no-op for local/.
distclean still works for non-local recipes (upstream sources from
sources/redbear-0.1.0/ or git mirrors can be safely re-fetched).
The build system uses `patch --fuzz=0` to apply patches atomically.
Previous patches had extra context that included line counts in the
hunk header that didn't match the current source state due to upstream
drift. The result was atomic rollbacks.
Reduce the hunk context to 1-2 lines around the actual change. This
keeps the patches minimal and ensures they apply cleanly under fuzz=0.
- P0-redox-scheme-bump-0.11.1.patch: hunk now starts at line 96
(where redox-scheme actually is in the current source)
- P0-relibc-syscall-0.8.1.patch: hunk now starts at line 71
(where redox_syscall actually is in the current relibc source)
