Root cause: gnulib configure bakes raw typedef statements
(typedef long unsigned int size_t; etc.) into the generated
Makefile's GL_CFLAG_GNULIB_WARNINGS variable. These break
shell command parsing when expanded on recipe lines.
Fix:
1. Strip raw typedefs from all generated Makefiles after configure
2. Provide fix_types.h with guarded typedefs for size_t, ptrdiff_t,
off_t, wchar_t, ssize_t, time_t
3. Force-include fix_types.h via CPPFLAGS to work around the
cross-compiler's GCC built-in stddef.h ordering issue
Also: comprehensive upstream relibc comparison and import plan
Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone
with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched
source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/,
local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees.
Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded.
127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt
frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.
Add redbear-usb-storage-check in-guest binary that validates USB mass
storage read and write I/O: discovers /scheme/disk/ devices, writes a
test pattern to sector 2048, reads it back, verifies match, restores
original content. Updates test-usb-storage-qemu.sh with write-proof
verification step.
Includes all accumulated Red Bear OS work: kernel patches, relibc
patches, driver infrastructure, DRM/GPU, KDE recipes, firmware,
validation tooling, build system hardening, and documentation.
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
