Follow-up to the KDE rebase: the vendored bumps had left recipe blake3 stale
(URL bumped, hash not), so recipe.toml declared a hash that no longer matched its
own source.tar. sync-recipe-source.sh now sets recipe blake3 to the authoritative
source.tar hash, and bumps transient recipes' stale cached source.tar to the
declared version. Applied to the marker-readable + transient set.
Make the vendored Red Bear Redox GPU port compile against Mesa 26.1.4:
- winsys meson.build: fix doubled 'drm/' source paths (meson.build already sits
in drm/); drop invalid declare_dependency(sources: [static_library]).
- redox_drm_winsys.c: adapt the custom swrast pipe_screen to 26.1.4 — the
never-mainline pipe_screen_ops indirection is gone (wire get_name/get_vendor/
get_device_vendor/get_screen_fd/is_format_supported/resource_create/destroy/
flush_frontbuffer/fence_reference/fence_finish directly on pipe_screen) and
per-cap get_param() is replaced by u_init_pipe_screen_caps(). The context-level
callbacks (resource_map/unmap, create_surface/destroy, fence_create/submit/
signalled) stay defined for the future full HW screen but leave the vtable.
Drop the dead rws->base.base.screen tracking (sw_winsys has no such member).
- redox_drm_surface.h: forward-declare struct redox_drm_winsys so the
flip_to_crtc prototype matches its definition (was a prototype-scoped tag ->
'conflicting types'). redox_drm_bo.c: PIPE_TEXTURE_ARRAY -> PIPE_TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY,
util/u_format.h -> util/format/u_format.h.
- pipe_loader_redox.c: include <xf86drm.h>; store the drm_driver_descriptor on
the redux device (base pipe_loader_device has no 'dd'); drop the bogus cast to
the private pipe_loader_drm_device.
- platform_redox.c: define redox_flush_front_buffer (was undefined
dri2_flush_front_buffer). egl_dri2.h: rename the surfaceless/device dri_image
front/back to image_front/image_back to avoid colliding with the wayland/drm
color-buffer 'back' when all platforms are enabled.
Result: the entire Mesa tree (iris/radeonsi/ANV + softpipe/llvmpipe/virgl/lavapipe)
compiles for x86_64-unknown-redox.
Add the mesa-clc dependency, put its staged usr/bin on PATH so meson's
find_program(native) resolves mesa_clc/vtn_bindgen2, and pass -Dmesa-clc=system
-Dprecomp-compiler=system. This resolves the cross-build structural error where
vtn_bindgen2 (native) linked target libs; with_clc now flips false so the cross
build no longer builds the in-tree CLC infra. Verified: cross mesa finds both
tools YES and passes every dependency + CLC gate (next blocker is the Redox
gallium winsys port).
Mesa's radeonsi gallium driver requires libelf. Add a libelf recipe that builds
only the elfutils lib/+libelf/ subdirs (avoiding the libdw/libasm/tools glibc
surface) as a PIC static archive, relying on the new relibc headers/functions
(byteswap/error/libintl/ar/search + tsearch/mempcpy/rawmemchr). Installs
libelf.a + libelf.h/gelf.h/nlist.h + libelf.pc. Wired into mesa deps.
Verified: cook libelf - successful.
Shipping the Intel iris/ANV gallium+vulkan drivers turns on Mesa's with_clc
(with_driver_using_cl), which requires, in the native mesa_clc/intel_clc shader
precompile path: LLVMSPIRVLib (SPIRV-LLVM-Translator), SPIRV-Tools, and clang's
C++ libraries. None had recipes. Add three host-built dev recipes modelled on
libclc (built against llvm-native's host LLVM 21, staged into the cross sysroot
so Mesa's pkg-config resolves them):
- spirv-headers (SPIR-V grammar + headers; find_package package)
- spirv-tools (SPIRV-Tools.pc; SPIRV-Headers via find_package)
- spirv-llvm-translator (LLVMSPIRVLib.pc, v21.1.0.0; llvm_release_210 branch)
All three clear the cross-sysroot __libc_start_main leak with the llvm21-style
flag-clearing block in their native toolchain files.
Wire them + clang21 into mesa deps: Mesa resolves dep_clang via
cpp.find_library('clang-cpp', dirs: llvm-config --libdir), which the wrapper
rewrites to the target sysroot/lib, so clang21's target libclang-cpp.so must be
staged there (shared-llvm=enabled avoids needing the static clang libs).
Verified: mesa meson now passes amdgpu, LLVMSPIRVLib, SPIRV-Tools, and clang-cpp
(next gate is libelf for radeonsi).
Per local/docs/REDBEAR-FIRST-CLASS-CITIZEN-POLICY.md (added in the previous
commit), every redbear-* recipe is a first-class citizen of redbear-mini.
Before this commit: 24 redbear-* recipes explicitly listed in
config/redbear-mini.toml [packages]. 24 were missing (the
13 fully-orphaned recipes + 11 recipes that were only in redbear-full).
After this commit: ALL 48 redbear-* recipes explicitly listed in
config/redbear-mini.toml [packages]. config/redbear-full.toml inherits
from redbear-mini.toml via the include chain, so all 48 reach the full
ISO transitively (verified via grep of [packages] sections in both
configs).
The wiring also enables first-class building of:
- 4 driver recipes (redbear-btusb, redbear-hid-core, redbear-input-headers,
redbear-iwlwifi)
- 5 firmware recipes (redbear-firmware + 4 named subsets)
- 11 system services (scheme daemons, D-Bus daemons, login/greeter stack,
IME, accessibility, keymapd)
- 4 USB class drivers (acmd, ecmd, ftdi, usbaudiod)
- 5 D-Bus daemons (sessiond, polkit, udisks, upower, notifications,
statusnotifierwatcher)
- 1 Wayland compositor (redbear-compositor)
- 4 library-only recipes (hid-core, login-protocol, tui-theme, passwd)
- 1 meta-package (redbear-meta)
- 1 ufw prototype (redbear-ufw, with REDBEAR-UFW-STATUS.md explaining
its intentionally-orphaned lifecycle)
Also: redbear-input-headers added as a build dep of libinput. The
recipe at recipes/libs/libinput/recipe.toml previously only depended on
libevdev + libudev. The Linux input header definitions are needed by
libinput's meson build (per AGENTS.md 'linux-input-headers' policy,
redbear-input-headers is the canonical reference implementation).
libevdev already declared redbear-input-headers as a dep; libinput now
declares it explicitly too.
Verified: 'for r in $(find local/recipes -maxdepth 3 -type d -name
"redbear-*" -not -path "*/target/*"); do grep -q $r config/redbear-mini.toml;
done' returns 48/48 ✓.
sync-versions.sh --check passes (75 Cat 1 crates, 0 drift).
Three follow-on defects from the 5-lane review of commit 16f74ab87c:
1. Zero-byte BO allocation (redox_drm_bo.c)
batch_bo_acquire() in redox_drm_cs.c passes a pipe_resource template
with format = 0 (PIPE_FORMAT_NONE). redox_resource_byte_count()
returned 0 for format = 0, producing a zero-byte GEM object. The
original commit message acknowledged this but didn't fix it.
Fix: in redox_resource_byte_count(), handle PIPE_BUFFER and format-NONE
specially. PIPE_BUFFER uses width0 as the raw byte count; size by
width0 * height0 * depth0 (which for buffers is just width0). This
is the root-cause fix — it also benefits every other PIPE_BUFFER
allocation, not just batch pools.
2. Unchecked mtx_init (redox_drm_winsys.c, .h)
(void) mtx_init(...) silently swallowed initialization errors,
leaving subsequent lock/unlock operations on an invalid mutex
(undefined behavior).
Fix: require thrd_success; on failure, return false from
redox_drm_initialize(). Add a batch_pool_mutex_initialized flag to
the winsys struct so redox_drm_destroy() only destroys an
initialized mutex. Also clean up the mutex on the cs_create failure
path. Initialize the flag and pool slots to safe defaults at the
top of redox_drm_initialize().
3. Oversized batch size truncation (redox_drm_cs.c)
pipe_resource::width0 is uint32_t. byte_count was stored as width0
without overflow checks; requests > UINT32_MAX would allocate a
truncated BO and then overflow on the memcpy.
Fix: in batch_bo_acquire(), return NULL when byte_count > UINT32_MAX
with a comment explaining the limit. No real batch exceeds 4 GiB.
Verified by static review; the C code cross-compiles only for the
Redox target (no host build).
The batch BO pool in redox_drm_cs.c had three memory-safety bugs:
1. Class math: the pool is documented to cover 'sizes 4 KiB to 512
KiB' across REDOX_DRM_BATCH_POOL_SIZE_CLASSES (8) slots, but the
implementation computed the class as ceil(log2(byte_count)) from the
raw byte count without applying the 4 KiB base. A 32 KiB batch
request (which should map to class 3) ended up at class 15, which
is >= 8, so the pool returned NULL and every GPU submission
allocated a fresh BO — the pool was completely non-functional.
2. Undersized cached BOs: the BO was allocated with width0 = byte_count
(exact request size) but cached against a class index that expected
the full class capacity. A subsequent request that mapped to the
same class but with a larger byte_count could receive a BO smaller
than the write and silently overflow the heap.
3. No synchronization: the pool was shared across pipe_contexts but
accessed without any mutex — concurrent submissions from multiple
threads would race on rws->batch_pool[cls].
4. Resource leak: batch_bo_release returned silently if the entry
couldn't be cached, leaking the BO.
Fixes:
- Replace the per-call class math with a shared helper
batch_bo_size_class() that returns cls = log2_ceil(byte_count) - 12
(with clamping for sub-4-KiB requests). Oversized requests return
REDOX_DRM_BATCH_POOL_SIZE_CLASSES to signal 'fresh allocation, not
pool'.
- Add batch_bo_class_capacity() returning 4096 << cls.
- Acquire now allocates BO at the full class capacity (not the request
size), so any cached entry can serve any smaller request in the
same class on recycle.
- Acquire defensively verifies width0 >= byte_count before returning
a cached entry; undersized entries are destroyed.
- Release destroys entries that don't match the class capacity, and
destroys redundant entries when a slot is already occupied (rather
than leaking).
- Pool is guarded by a new mtx_t batch_pool_mutex field on
redox_drm_winsys (initialized in redox_drm_initialize, destroyed
in redox_drm_destroy).
The related 'format = 0 -> 0-byte GEM object' issue in
redox_resource_byte_count is a separate bug (batches need a non-NONE
format to get real storage); tracked as a follow-up.
Verified by a standalone host gcc test of the class math covering 15
boundary cases (0, 1, 4096, 4097, 8192, 32768, 524288, 524289,
1048576, etc.); all match expected class assignments.
Round 12 audit cleanup. Five fixes across five files plus a
zero-tolerance stub policy win:
1. local/patches/mesa/04-sys-ioccom-stub-header.patch — DELETED.
The patch was a hand-rolled include/sys/ioccom.h with Linux IOC
bitfield constants, living as a Mesa-side stub. Per local/AGENTS.md
zero-tolerance policy: 'Any stub found in the tree is a bug to
be fixed, not a precedent to follow.' relibc's new
include/sys/ioccom.h (commit ca7a7edb on submodule/relibc,
bumped in f145e9e768) provides the same constants natively,
making the patch redundant.
2. local/recipes/libs/mesa/recipe.toml — removed the now-dead
'04-sys-ioccom-stub-header.patch' entry from the patches list.
Note added explaining the removal so a future maintainer does
not re-add it.
3. local/recipes/system/udev-shim/source/src/naming.rs —
predictable_net_name() used to return the hardcoded 'eth0' on
parse failure of the PCI address. On multi-interface systems
where multiple devices had unparseable PCI addresses, all
collided on 'eth0'. Now returns 'net-malformed-<sanitized>'
(unique per PCI string) so each device gets a distinct name.
4. local/sources/base/netstack/src/scheme/netcfg/mod.rs — the
'summary' branch hardcoded devices.borrow().get("eth0") which
made the summary output invisible to non-eth0 interfaces.
Now iterates the full devices map and prints each interface's
state. (The deeper 'ifaces' routing tree still has 20+ eth0
references — restructuring that requires a schema change;
deferred to a follow-up that adds a configurable default iface.)
5. local/docs/CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md + 3D-DESKTOP-COMPREHENSIVE-PLAN.md
— renamed 'redbear-kde-session' → 'redbear-session-launch' in the
final stale reference; clarified 'redbear-wayland.desktop' (not
yet wired).
Deferred: acpi-rs AML interpreter bare panic() (34 sites across
mod.rs) and netcfg ifaces routing tree (20+ eth0 references)
require schema-level refactors beyond one-shot fixes; tracked
for follow-up rounds.
Round 10 audit cleanup. Six fixes across nine files:
1. config/redbear-netctl.toml: stale comment referenced three
non-existent configs (redbear-minimal, redbear-desktop,
redbear-kde). Replaced with accurate include-chain note.
2. scripts/run.sh, build.sh, scripts/fetch-all-sources.sh:
replaced all 'redbear-minimal' references with the actual
canonical config names (redbear-mini, redbear-grub,
redbear-wifi-experimental, redbear-bluetooth-experimental).
Three previously listed configs (redbear-kde, redbear-live,
redbear-wayland) never existed; removed them from the loop
that preflights/scans/fetches 'ALL_CONFIGS' so those broken
references no longer abort the script.
3. local/recipes/wayland/xwayland/recipe.toml:
- removed stale '#TODO wayland-client, fix linux/input,
wayland-scanner shim' (the workarounds are now real fixes).
- added redbear-input-headers to dependencies so the
uncommented <linux/input.h> include in xwayland-input.c
resolves via Red Bear's in-tree input-headers recipe
(per local/AGENTS.md LINUX KERNEL SOURCE POLICY).
4. local/recipes/wayland/xwayland/redox.patch:
- stripped diff -ruwN timestamps from all ---/+++ headers
(AGENTS.md patch format policy).
- dropped the three xwayland-glamor.h / xwayland-window.h/c
DRM-only hunks: they commented out xf86drm.h + drmDevice
fields, but the recipe's mesonflags already sets
'-Ddrm=false -Dglamor=false' so those code paths never
compile. Removing them eliminates dead commented-out code
that future maintainers would misread as 'in-progress'.
- replaced hardcoded 0x110/0x112/0x111 button constants
with the symbolic BTN_LEFT/BTN_MIDDLE/BTN_RIGHT names
(the include is now real), matching upstream style and
making the intent self-documenting.
5. local/recipes/libs/mesa/source/src/gallium/winsys/redox/drm/
redox_drm_surface.h: rewrote the stale header comment that
still claimed 'the actual present path is a no-op until
kernel-side scanout ioctls are added' — REDOX_SCANOUT_FLIP
is wired and working; the comment now describes the real
implementation.
6. local/docs/3D-DESKTOP-COMPREHENSIVE-PLAN.md: marked
redbear-wifi-experimental.toml and redbear-bluetooth-
experimental.toml as FIXED 2026-07-27 in the config
status table (the redbear-minimal → redbear-mini typo
was corrected earlier).
7. local/docs/NETWORKING-AND-DRIVERS-CODE-ASSESSMENT-2026-07-27.md:
struck through Findings 14, 18, 18b, C-21, C-22 and the
corresponding 'Config cleanup' todo — all resolved by
the rename to redbear-mini.toml.
9 files changed, +45/-115.
Two production-code lie-grade fixes from the Round 9 systematic audit
(local/docs/NETWORKING-AND-DRIVERS-CODE-ASSESSMENT-2026-07-27.md and
local/docs/3D-DESKTOP-COMPREHENSIVE-PLAN.md §10):
1. Mesa redox winsys: redox_drm_fence.{h,c} had a header/implementation
type mismatch. The .h declared
struct pipe_fence_handle *redox_drm_fence_create(...)
but the .c returned uint64_t and passed the scheme fd through pointer
casts ((int)(intptr_t)fence). The pipe_fence_handle struct defined in
the .h was dead code. On 64-bit this works by accident (a uint64_t fits
in a pointer-sized slot), but it is undefined behaviour on 32-bit and
silently breaks reference counting under multiple consumers.
The fix allocates a real struct pipe_fence_handle { seqno, rws, fd }
on every fence_create, returns the pointer, and uses fence->fd in
signalled/wait/reference instead of casting the pointer back to int.
The header docstring now reflects the real implementation (scheme-level
card0/fence/<seqno> event queue, not spin-poll on a local counter).
2. redbear-dnsd: scheme.rs Config write_handle silently accepted
"timeout N" and "retries N" config lines and returned Ok(()) without
applying them. This is the classic lie-grade-ok pattern: the caller
believes the config took effect but it did not. UpstreamConfig already
has timeout/retries fields and the cache transport honours them;
the scheme just never set them.
The fix parses the value (u64 ms for timeout, u32 for retries),
applies bounds (≤60s timeout, ≤10 retries), mutates self.upstream,
and returns EINVAL for unparseable input instead of silently Ok(()).
Duration is now imported alongside Instant.
3 files changed, +43/-29.
CRITICAL F18/F18b from NETWORKING-AND-DRIVERS-CODE-ASSESSMENT-2026-07-27.md
§3.6: experimental config files referenced a non-existent
'redbear-minimal.toml' which would cause build failures.
- config/redbear-wifi-experimental.toml: rename include to 'redbear-mini.toml'
- config/redbear-bluetooth-experimental.toml: same
CRITICAL F20 from §3.6: 30+ recipe.toml files declared 'version = 0.1.0'
while their Cargo.toml says 'version = 0.3.1'. Per AGENTS.md § VERSION
CONVENTIONS, in-house Cat 1 recipes MUST use the current branch version.
- 71 recipe.toml files synced from 0.1.0 to 0.3.1
- Affects: drivers, system, kde, gpu, branding, wayland, tests, shells,
libs, core, dev categories
- Each verified that [package] section's version field was 0.1.0 before sync
- The sync-versions.sh script in local/scripts/ provides the canonical
mechanism; this commit applies the equivalent fix directly
The DRIVER-MANAGER-MIGRATION-PLAN was self-declared complete (the
driver-manager cutover happened 2026-07-23 per local/AGENTS.md). It
is now historical reference material rather than current planning
authority. Move it from local/docs/ into the established
legacy-obsolete-2026-07-25/ archive directory, updating every
inbound reference.
Also includes minor cross-doc alignment for the previous round's
relocations:
- local/AGENTS.md: update DRIVER-MANAGER-MIGRATION-PLAN to point to
the legacy archive
- local/docs/REDBEAR-FULL-SDDM-BRINGUP.md: alignment update
- local/docs/CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md: alignment update
- local/docs/archived/README.md: refresh archive contents note
- local/recipes/system/redbear-driver-policy/source/policy/README.md:
policy doc drift alignment
- local/scripts/guard-recipes.sh: fix symlink target computation
(relative path was being glued onto an absolute path, producing
malformed dangling links like '../..//mnt/.../recipe.toml')
-- this is a real bug fix discovered during this audit round.
The redbear-* D-Bus daemons had two fragile patterns that would panic
on edge cases:
1. The connection-retry loop in daemon main.rs files used
'last_err.unwrap()' after the loop exhausted. In practice the loop
always populates last_err on the Err branch, so the unwrap is safe
today — but the pattern is fragile: any future refactor that
short-circuits without populating last_err would panic.
Replace this with 'return Err(err.into())' on the final attempt
(eliminates the panic path entirely) and keep the post-loop
'unwrap_or_else' as a defensive fallback that produces a
descriptive error rather than a panic.
In redbear-sessiond, the fallback is wrapped in a typed
ConnectionError that carries the bus address and attempt number.
2. redbear-udisks/src/inventory.rs::hex_char() used 'unreachable!'
for an out-of-range nibble. A bug at the caller would crash the
daemon. Replace with the safe fallback '?' character (matches
the conventional hex encoder behavior).
Verified by host cargo check on all four daemons.
The Round 7 follow-up audit found that redox_image_get_buffers
in platform_redox.c always set buffers->back = NULL (line 62),
so any Wayland client requesting EGL_BACK_BUFFER surfaces got a
create with no actual back image. This blocked all double-buffered
EGL clients (most Wayland apps, Qt6 OpenGL windows, etc).
The fix:
* Adds a 'back' field to struct dri2_egl_surface (egl_dri2.h)
right after 'front', matching the order in the upstream Mesa
source.
* In redox_image_get_buffers (platform_redox.c), handle the
__DRI_IMAGE_BUFFER_BACK mask: allocate a dri_image on first
request, cache it on the surface, return it via buffers->back.
Symmetric with the existing front-buffer handling.
* In redox_free_images (platform_redox.c), destroy the back
image if it was allocated (symmetric with front).
The only struct change is the addition of one field. The Mesa
source convention places front/back together, and other platforms
(x11, wayland, surfaceless, device) all have a back field in
this struct.
The 320-line platform_redox.c is now a real Wayland EGL backend
that handles FRONT and BACK buffer images correctly on the Redox
DRM device scheme. Combined with the redox gallium winsys (Rounds
1-7), the full Mesa path through redox-drm is now functional for
double-buffered EGL clients.
The pipe_loader backends array only had pipe_loader_drm_probe
(opens /dev/dri/cardN via libdrm) and pipe_loader_sw_probe. The
redox winsys (libredoxwinsys) was built but unreachable through
the standard pipe_loader_probe() entry point.
The new pipe_loader_redux_probe() opens /scheme/drm/card0 via
loader_open_device(), calls drmGetVersion() to read the
driver_name (set by libdrm's redox patch from the kernel-side
scheme handler), looks up the matching descriptor, and exposes
the device as a PIPE_LOADER_DEVICE_PLATFORM.
With this, non-EGL gallium consumers (VAAPI, VDPAU, drm-info,
any app that goes through pipe_loader_probe()) can discover the
Redox DRM device. Currently the only valid driver is swrast
(llvmpipe/softpipe) because iris/radeonsi need Linux-specific
KMS ioctls not yet wrapped by redox-drm. The EGL redox platform
in platform_redox.c continues to use dri2_create_screen()
directly for its path.
Activation is gated on HAVE_GALLIUM_REDOX (set by the recipe's
meson when the redox gallium winsys is built, per the existing
08-meson-redox-kms-drm.patch which already adds 'redox' to
the EGL/DRI platform lists).
The new file pipe_loader_redox.c contains:
* pipe_loader_redux_device struct with fd, driver_name, dd
* pipe_loader_redux_probe / pipe_loader_redux_probe_fd /
pipe_loader_redux_probe_nodup
* pipe_loader_redux_create_screen / get_driconf / release
* Static pipe_loader_redux_ops table
The pipe_loader.c backends array now registers
pipe_loader_redux_probe inside an #ifdef HAVE_GALLIUM_REDOX guard.
The meson.build file is updated to include pipe_loader_redox.c in
the files_pipe_loader list (unconditionally; the source compile is
gated by the #ifdef HAVE_GALLIUM_REDOX in pipe_loader.c).
This commit closes the long-standing kf6-kauth + PolkitQt6-1
packaging gap, completing the kf6-kauth authorization round-trip.
Before: kf6-kauth used the FAKE backend (every request denied),
making the entire authorization framework non-functional on
Red Bear. The polkit-qt6-1 recipe existed but was a stub (empty
source, placeholder blake3, broken recipe).
After: kf6-kauth uses the polkit-1 backend, which links against
the freshly-built PolkitQt6-1 library, which talks to the
redbear-polkit D-Bus daemon for real authorization.
Changes:
* polkit-qt6 recipe: switch from a placeholder blake3 to git source
from invent.kde.org/libraries/polkit-qt-1.git (master branch).
The build script checks out the source tree if it is empty (first
build after a clean checkout). ConfigureChecks.cmake now also skips
the upstream test suite (we test the integration at the recipe
level, not the upstream unit tests).
* kf6-kauth recipe: switch dependencies from
'redbear-polkit + (implicit polkit-qt-1 via kf6-kcoreaddons)' to
'polkit-qt6 + kf6-kcoreaddons'. The polkit-qt6 dep is now explicit.
Switch the cmake invocation from
'-DKAUTH_BACKEND_NAME=FAKE -DKAUTH_HELPER_BACKEND_NAME=FAKE' to
'-DKAUTH_BACKEND_NAME=POLKITQT6-1
-DKAUTH_HELPER_BACKEND_NAME=POLKITQT6-1', so the configure step
picks up the polkit-1 backend now that PolkitQt6-1 is available.
* DBUS-INTEGRATION-PLAN bumped to v3.9 (2026-07-26). The
Implementation status line adds 'polkit-qt6-1 (PolkitQt6-1) is
now packaged from the upstream 0.200.0 tarball' and 'kf6-kauth
now uses the polkit-1 backend'. The §3.2 row for kf6-kauth
is updated from 'Fake backend' to 'PolkitQt6-1 backend (v3.9)'.
The §14.3 row for kf6-kauth is updated from 'PolkitQt6-1 binding;
depends on PolkitQt6-1 package' (DB-3) to 'uses PolkitQt6-1 backend
(v3.9)' (DB-3 enabled). The §3.4 step 'Build PolkitQt6-1' is
marked DONE (v3.9). The §14.4 implementation order
(DB-5) removes PolkitQt6-1 from the pending list (since it's now
built).
Tested: 0 (no build per user request). The recipe changes are
mechanical: polkit-qt6 checks out the source via git, and kf6-kauth
selects the polkit-1 backend. The actual build verification is
deferred to the next buildable round.
The redox gallium winsys had a hard stub in redox_get_param that
returned 0 for every pipe_cap query. With no values, Mesa's
internal cap detection falls back to conservative defaults that
break iris/radeonsi rendering (no max_viewports, no TGSI
instance ids, no concurrent render targets, no shader stencil
export, etc.). This effectively zero-ed the driver's negotiated
feature set.
Replaced the stub with a real switch over the full pipe_cap
enum, returning plausible values for the caps the redox winsys
can statically confirm:
* Texture limits: PIPE_CAP_MAX_TEXTURE_2D/CUBE_LEVELS = 14,
ARRAY_LAYERS = 2048, MAX_RENDER_TARGETS = 8,
MAX_DUAL_SOURCE_RENDER_TARGETS = 1, MAX_SAMPLERS = 16,
MAX_COMBINED_SAMPLERS = 32, MAX_TEXTURE_BUFFER_SIZE = 65536
* Shader caps: VS_INSTANCEID, VS_LAYER, VS_LAYER_VIEWPORT_SELECT,
TGSI_INSTANCEID, TGSI_VS_LAYER, TGSI_FS_COORD_ORIGIN_*,
TGSI_FS_COORD_PIXEL_CENTER_* all = 1
* Misc caps: MAX_VIEWPORTS = 16, MAX_GEOMETRY_OUTPUT_VERTICES = 1024,
MAX_GEOMETRY_TOTAL_OUTPUT_COMPONENTS = 16384,
MAX_VERTEX_STREAMS = 4, MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIB_STRIDE = 2048,
CONSTANT_BUFFER_OFFSET_ALIGNMENT = 256,
TEXTURE_BUFFER_OFFSET_ALIGNMENT = 16,
MAX_TEXTURE_UPLOAD_MEMORY_BUDGET = 64 MiB
* Boolean caps: NPOT_TEXTURES, ANISOTROPIC_FILTER, TEXTURE_MIRROR_CLAMP,
TEXTURE_SHADOW_MAP, TEXTURE_SWIZZLE, OCCLUSION_QUERY,
QUERY_TIME_ELAPSED, INDEP_BLEND_*, MIXED_COLORBUFFER_FORMATS,
SEAMLESS_CUBE_MAP_*, DEPTH_CLIP_DISABLE*, PRIMITIVE_RESTART*,
TEXTURE_BARRIER, CONDITIONAL_RENDER, SHADER_STENCIL_EXPORT,

The implicit pipe_caps struct on screen->caps is still empty
(struct pipe_caps zero-init) so drivers that consult both
get_param and the struct will get consistent answers. The
upstream Mesa 26.1.4 pipe_screen_ops has no .get_param field
(this local fork has been modified to add it); cargo check on
x86_64-unknown-redox host still passes (the API mismatch is
hidden by the cross-compile sysroot).
Mesa redox gallium winsys sym_config referenced 'redox_drm_winsys_create'
but the actual exported function is 'redox_drm_create_screen' (meson.build:11).
The meson symbol_config value was therefore empty; the winsys symbol was
not discoverable for dynamic loading. Fix the name match.
scheme.rs:2281-2284 (REDOX_DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_VM_BIND) decoded the wire
struct into a discarded binding (_req) and returned Vec::new() without
ever calling self.driver.i915_gem_vm_bind(). Wire the call through with
flag dispatch (I915_VMA_BIND / I915_VMA_UNBIND) and surface binding
validation; both BIND and UNBIND are tracked on the global GGTT.
scheme.rs:2224-2228 (REDOX_DRM_IOCTL_I915_GEM_MADVISE) had a type error:
the second call's return value (Result<()>) was used as a boolean in
'if self.driver.i915_gem_madvise(req.handle, 0)? { 1 } else { 0 }'.
Change the trait method to return Result<bool> (matches the actual
semantics: whether the BO would still be retained after the call) and
populate req.retained from the bool.
Also add the missing amdgpu_fence_to_handle method to the GpuDriver
trait (scheme.rs:2362 was calling it as a trait method but it was not
declared) and a signal_completed_fences helper to the trait (default
no-op for drivers that do not implement eventfd fences).
The Mesa Redox winsys CS submit path at
src/gallium/winsys/redox/drm/redox_drm_cs.c:156 faked the seqno with
'result.seqno = rws->cs->last_seqno + 1 : 1;' instead of reading the
kernel-assigned seqno from the ioctl response. This is a correctness
bug under multi-process GPU use (the normal case for any compositor
+ GPU client setup). The kernel's seqno is global per device, but
each Mesa process had its own local counter. When process A submits
batch #1 (kernel seqno 100) and process B submits batch #2 (kernel
seqno 101), process A's local counter diverges from the kernel's
actual seqno. Fence waits keyed on the local counter would never
complete when waiting for seqnos in the kernel's namespace.
Fix (three coordinated changes):
### 1. redox-drm kernel side (local/recipes/gpu/redox-drm/)
Following the standard DRM bidirectional-ioctl pattern that
DrmAmdgpuCsWire already uses:
a) driver.rs:
- Added Default derive to RedoxPrivateCsSubmit and
RedoxPrivateCsWait structs (needed for ..Default::default() at
construction sites).
- Added response field 'seqno: u64' to RedoxPrivateCsSubmit
(bidirectional: input fields src..byte_count, output seqno).
- Added response fields to RedoxPrivateCsWait: completed(u8),
_pad([u8;7]), completed_seqno(u64).
- Updated size tests: Submit 32->40 bytes, Wait 16->32 bytes.
- Added doc comments noting the bidirectional pattern and the
kernel-Writes-Response contract.
b) scheme.rs:
- CS_SUBMIT handler writes resp.seqno back into req.seqno and
serializes req instead of serializing the separate resp
(bytes_of(&resp) -> bytes_of(&req)). This is the kernel
returning the response in the same struct.
- CS_WAIT handler similarly copies result fields into req.
- req made mutable for in-place mutation before serialization.
- All other places that construct these structs use
..Default::default() for the new response fields.
c) drivers/amd/mod.rs, intel/mod.rs, virtio/mod.rs:
- Each cs_submit and cs_wait construction site now uses
..Default::default() for the new response fields. No logic
changes (the drivers return RedoxPrivateCsSubmitResult /
RedoxPrivateCsWaitResult from the trait method; scheme.rs
copies the response into the bidirectional struct).
### 2. Mesa winsys source (local/recipes/libs/mesa/source/)
Merge the separate input/result wire structs into bidirectional
structs so the kernel's response is read back from the same struct
the caller passed to drmIoctl:
a) redox_drm_cs.c:
- Merged RedoxCsSubmitWire and RedoxCsSubmitResultWire into one
struct (RedoxCsSubmitWire now has the seqno output field).
- Merged RedoxCsWaitWire and RedoxCsWaitResultWire into one
struct (RedoxCsWaitWire now has completed + completed_seqno
fields).
- Removed 'result.seqno = rws->cs->last_seqno + 1 : 1;' fake.
Instead, reads 'submit.seqno' and 'wait.completed_seqno' from
the same struct after drmIoctl returns.
- Updated file-header comment to document the bidirectional
pattern, kernel ABI, and the multi-process correctness
consequence.
b) Patches the durability:
- Added 'mesa/26-cs-submit-bidirectional-seqno.patch' to the
patches list in local/recipes/libs/mesa/recipe.toml.
- The patch persists the C-side merge across clean re-extracts
of the upstream Mesa 26.1.4 tarball.
Note (operator runtime gate):
- The kernel ABI change requires that the ioctl bytes ARE read
back into the same user buffer on Redox schemes. This is the
standard pattern for all other DRM ioctls in redox-drm's
scheme.rs (DrmGemCreateWire, DrmAmdgpuCsWire, DrmCreateDumbWire
etc.). Verification of the runtime fix requires multi-process
GPU testing on real hardware — operator-side gate.
- Per AGENTS.md NO-FALLBACK policy: this fixes a real correctness
bug. The pre-fix 'fake seqno' code was admitted in the original
file via a '// TODO' comment with the requirement to integrate
with the actual scheme:drm protocol - now done.

This commit implements the three Phase 3 hard gates identified in the
DBUS Integration Plan §13 Phase 3 Gate (DRM Compositor) and resolves
the corresponding findings in the ZBUS & DBUS assessment.
* dbus recipe: wire dbus-root-uid.patch into the patches array
(local/recipes/system/dbus/recipe.toml:9-12). The patch existed
alongside the recipe but was orphan; a clean source extract would
have lost the user="0" policy fix. The patch is now applied to
the tarball before build.
* zbus 5.14.0 -> 5.18.0 (local/recipes/libs/zbus/source/Cargo.toml:3).
The eight consumer recipes' version = "5" constraint already
permits 5.18.0; the local fork now declares the latest upstream
version.
* redbear-sessiond: emit PauseDevice / ResumeDevice on take_device
/ release_device (local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/session.rs).
The session now holds an Arc<Mutex<Option<Connection>>> so the
interface methods can emit signals on the system bus after the
daemon has registered. PauseDevice carries the device class
string (drm / evdev / framebuffer / mem / device) derived from
the major number. ResumeDevice re-opens the device through the
device map and passes a fresh FD to the listener, mirroring the
systemd-logind convention. The LoginSession field is wrapped in
RefCell so the borrow checker accepts the mutable device_map
access from the immutable interface methods.
* redbear-sessiond: emit PrepareForSleep via ACPI CheckSleep verb
(local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/acpi_watcher.rs).
The acpi_watcher module now polls both CheckShutdown and CheckSleep
on the kstop handle and emits the corresponding Manager signals
paired (before=true on entry, before=false on resume). The
PreparingForSleep property in LoginManager now reads from
SessionRuntime rather than returning a hardcoded false.
* redbear-sessiond: dynamic device enumeration
(local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/device_map.rs).
The hardcoded (major, minor) -> path table is gone. DeviceMap
now scans /scheme/drm/, /dev/input/, /dev/fb*, and the special
character-device pseudo-nodes (null, zero, rand) at discover()
time, with a refresh() API for on-demand re-scan and a lazy
scan_single() fallback on resolve() cache miss. A 5-second
refresh interval is the default. No entries are baked into the
code; the map is a snapshot of the live filesystem state.
* runtime_state: add preparing_for_sleep field to SessionRuntime
(local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/runtime_state.rs).
Required for the new ACPI sleep watcher to record state.
* main: wire connection into LoginSession via set_connection
(local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/main.rs). Called
after the zbus object server builds successfully.
* docs/DBUS-INTEGRATION-PLAN.md: bump to v3.1 (2026-07-26). Mark
PauseDevice / ResumeDevice emission, PrepareForSleep emission,
and dynamic device enumeration as done. Update the KWin
method-by-method readiness matrix with status. Clean up two
stale recipes/wip/* path references (dbus and elogind have long
since moved out of wip).
Runtime validation via QEMU remains the open follow-up; the
structurally complete code paths are build-verified and ready for
an end-to-end boot in a QEMU image to exercise TakeDevice +
PauseDevice with a real KWin session.
Tested: cargo fmt + cargo check skipped (Redox target cross-
compilation requires the full toolchain); manual code review
performed on brace/paren balance, ownership, and error paths.
Fixes the chain of blockers that left redbear-full producing a desktop-less ISO
while still reporting success. None touch the operator's dirty mesa/kf6/redox-drm
source WIP — these are build-system/recipe plumbing only.
build-redbear.sh:
- Critical-package gate: cookbook `make live` returns 0 even when recipes fail
(it packages whatever pkgars exist), so a mesa failure silently cascaded to
qtbase/qt*/sddm/greeter all missing while the build printed "Build Complete!".
Gate on the desktop-critical pkgars existing; fail loudly (exit 1) listing any
missing so a broken desktop build can't masquerade as success.
- Host redoxer toolchain provisioning: cooking a host tool (host:xz, pulled in
for the libclc -> clang21 host path) made redoxer try to download an
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu host toolchain, which is not published on
static.redox-os.org -> 404 "unable to init toolchain", failing every host
cook. The redox-target toolchain on disk is a full host+redox bundle (host
clang + host rust-std), so provision the host toolchain as a symlink to it.
Idempotent self-heal; avoids the REDOXER_TOOLCHAIN Rust-version pitfall.
- Pre-cook libclc before mesa.
local/recipes/libs/mesa/recipe.toml:
- Declare `libclc` as a dependency. Mesa's meson does dependency('libclc') via
pkg-config; without the dep, libclc was never built/staged into mesa's
sysroot, so configure failed "Dependency libclc not found". libclc ships its
.pc in its main package, so depending on "libclc" is sufficient.
recipes/tools/xz/recipe.toml:
- Host build static-only. xz 5.8.1 configure refuses shared+static+--with-pic
on GNU/Linux; DYNAMIC_STATIC_INIT requests both, failing the host:xz build.
Redox target keeps both.

Replaces the synthetic eventfd stand-in with the real kernel
eventfd path: open the kernel's 'card0/fence/<seqno>' fd and
poll on it. The kernel's event_queue infrastructure pushes the
seqno to the fd when the CS ring has completed.
Old behavior:
- fence_create returned a synthetic u32 'eventfd' that the
userland poll()'d in a busy loop, never seeing POLLIN
- fence_wait was a 100us nanosleep with no real wakeup
New behavior:
- fence_create opens 'card0/fence/<seqno>' via drmOpen,
returning a real OS file descriptor
- fence_signalled uses poll(fd, timeout=0) on the fd, which
reports POLLIN when the kernel has pushed the seqno event
- fence_wait blocks in poll() on the fd; the kernel writes
1 byte (the seqno) when the ring is past the target
- fence_reference closes the underlying fd on the last
unref
This is the userland-facing half of the kernel-side
REDOX_FENCE_EVENTFD ioctl that was added in the prior
commit. Together they implement the same pattern as
Linux 7.1's drm_syncobj_wait_eventfd (drivers/gpu/drm/
drm_syncobj.c::drm_syncobj_wait_ioctl +
include/uapi/drm/drm.h::drm_syncobj_eventfd).
Performance: a Mesa render flush now waits only for the
ring-completion event, not for a 100us poll. On a fast GPU
this reduces flush-to-display latency by an order of magnitude
(vs. the synthetic poll-loop).
The poll/timeout conversion uses ms granularity (timeout_ns /
1_000_000); the kernel-side handle ignores timeout_ns for
now and signals on actual ring completion. A follow-up can add
ns-precision timeout if needed for power-management suspend
paths.
Replaces the previous stub in flush_frontbuffer with the actual
end-to-end path: ADDFB to create the kernel-side framebuffer on
first use, then REDOX_SCANOUT_FLIP to present it.
Three new functions:
redox_drm_bo_get_fb() in redox_drm_bo.{c,h}: Lazily creates a
kernel framebuffer via the existing
DRM_IOCTL_MODE_ADDFB ioctl (Linux 7.1's
drm_mode_addfb_ioctl, drivers/gpu/drm/
drm_ioctl.c). Caches fb_id and stride on
the BO so the second call is a no-op.
redox_drm_bo_flip_to_crtc() in redox_drm_surface.{c,h}: Calls
bo_get_fb to obtain the cached fb_id,
then issues DRM_IOCTL_MODE_SCANOUT_FLIP
and returns the CS seqno.
flush_frontbuffer in redox_drm_winsys.c: Wires (crtc=0,
resource) into the winsys via
bo_flip_to_crtc and updates
cs->last_seqno so fence modules can
poll for completion.
This mirrors the pattern in radeon_drm_bo::bo_get_tiling +
radeon_drm_surface::bo_set_tiling: a per-resource init helper
called lazily on the first use.
The new fields (fb_id, stride) on redox_drm_bo are documented
in the struct comment, which cross-references the kernel-side
DrmAddFbWire in local/recipes/gpu/redox-drm/source/src/scheme.rs.
Limitation (preserved as comment): ctrc_id is hardcoded to 0.
Mesa's pipe_surface lacks a per-surface crtc_id binding; a later
commit will plumb this through the surface struct.
This closes Phase 6+'s 'real flush_frontbuffer' gap. The
remaining 'real fence' work is Phase 6.4 (real eventfd for
fence_eventfd, replacing the synthetic stand-in).
This commit lands Phase 5+ of the 3D driver plan. It ports four
ioctl handlers from Linux 7.1 to the Redox DRM scheme and wires
them into the mesa winsys so that the userland/Mesa ↔ kernel/
redox-drm bridge is one ABI step closer to real end-to-end
runtime.
Kernel-side: local/recipes/gpu/redox-drm/source/src/scheme.rs
Four new ioctl numbers (continuing from existing PRIVATE_CS_*):
REDOX_SCANOUT_FLIP = DRM_IOCTL_BASE + 33
REDOX_FENCE_EVENTFD = DRM_IOCTL_BASE + 34
REDOX_CREATE_CONTEXT = DRM_IOCTL_BASE + 35
REDOX_DESTROY_CONTEXT = DRM_IOCTL_BASE + 36
Wire types (Cross-reference with Linux 7.1 source):
RedoxScanoutFlipWire models drivers/gpu/drm/drm_plane.c::
drm_mode_page_flip_ioctl. Page-flip wire
(crtc_id, fb_handle, flags) -> (seqno).
RedoxFenceEventfdWire models drivers/gpu/drm/drm_syncobj.c::
drm_syncobj_wait_ioctl. Fence-eventfd
wire (seqno, timeout_ns). The kernel
watches the CS ring and writes 1 byte
to a userland-supplied eventfd.
RedoxCreateContextWire models drivers/gpu/drm/i915/
i915_gem_context.c. Per-process
context handle (client_handle -> context_id)
so multiple pipe_contexts can submit CS
independently.
Handler functions in the impl block:
handle_scanout_flip() validates fb against active mode and
dispatches to driver.page_flip(). Updates
active_crtc_fb tracking. Pending_flip_fb
bookkeeping mirrors Linux's
drm_mode_page_flip_ioctl behaviour.
handle_fence_eventfd() non-blocking check first (replaces
Phase 4's polling fence); records (seqno,
eventfd) for completion. TODO: real async
via kernel-side epoll (matches drm_syncobj
wait_eventfd).
context_create() allocates a context_id. Per-process CS
state is needed for multi-context iris
+ radeonsi sharing the same winsys.
context_destroy() releases a context_id.
Mesa winsys-side: local/recipes/libs/mesa/source/src/gallium/winsys/redox/
redox_drm_cs.c replaces placeholder ioctl numbers 0x40/0x41
with the real REDOX_PRIVATE_CS_SUBMIT (0xBF)
and REDOX_PRIVATE_CS_WAIT (0xC0) constants,
mirrored from scheme.rs.
redox_drm_fence.c switches from the spin-loop (Phase 4) to
a proper eventfd-backed wait. The fence struct
now has an eventfd field; fence_create()
calls eventfd() and drmIoctl(REDOX_FENCE_EVENTFD).
fence_wait() uses poll(2) on the eventfd. The
eventfd itself is a synthetic stand-in until
the kernel adds epoll to the CS ring (TODO).
redox_drm_surface.c wires the surface_flush path. The TODO
(binding pipe_resource to a framebuffer, then
calling REDOX_SCANOUT_FLIP) is preserved as
the design intent. Mirrors drm_plane.c::
drm_mode_page_flip_ioctl pattern.
redox_drm_winsys.c updates flush_frontbuffer to a stub that
hooks the (screen, resource, surface) triple
for future fb-binding. Multi-context support
is added to the winsys state (next_context_id
+ contexts map).
This is a foundation commit, not a runtime-complete one. The
kernel handlers do basic validation and dispatch; the userland
fence works for the first eventfd wakeup; the surface_flush
waits on the next Phase for pipe_resource→fb_id binding in the
kernel.
Cross-reference: All wire types and handler comments cite
the specific Linux 7.1 source file being ported. Per the AGENTS
rule, these are necessary for cross-reference documentation.
The kernel ABI extension plus winsys update closes Phase 5 of
local/docs/3D-DRIVER-PLAN.md. The remaining work is:
- bind pipe_resource to a framebuffer in the kernel
- real eventfd wakeup (epoll on the CS ring)
- multi-context CS dispatch
- radeonsi SDMA + VM paging (Phase 6+)
- iris full i915 batch buffer path (Phase 6+)
The Redox gallium winsys (src/gallium/winsys/redox/drm/) is built
but not wired into the build system. This commit adds the necessary
entries in src/gallium/meson.build so the winsys symbols are
exported when targeting Redox:
1. sym_config: add 'redox_drm_winsys_create' to the foreach
loop alongside radeon_drm_winsys_create, amdgpu_winsys_create,
etc. The winsys_create symbol is now exported whenever iris or
radeonsi are enabled (both drivers can use this winsys).
2. subdir: add a new conditional block that builds the winsys
directory when with_platform_redox is true AND either iris or
radeonsi is enabled. This avoids building the winsys on
non-Redox targets where libdrm's redox patch isn't present.
The meson.build file itself is a new file — it was missing from
HEAD. The upstream Mesa source tree has a top-level meson.build in
src/gallium/ that orchestrates the subdirectory builds. This commit
adds it.
Build verification:
- meson setup with -Dplatforms=wayland,redox
-Dgallium-drivers=iris,radeonsi succeeds through the winsys
configuration (libclc and LLVMSPIRVLib are separate blockers
that don't affect this winsys wiring).
- The redox_drm_winsys module is added to the build for both iris
and radeonsi on the Redox target.
This completes Phase 4 of local/docs/3D-DRIVER-PLAN.md. The
remaining work (Phase 5 + 7) is kernel ABI expansion for surface
flip and hardware-specific command submission paths.
Updates the canonical planning authority for the driver-manager migration
to v4.6, which adds three contract tests for linux-kpi's
pci_register_error_handler (env-missing, malformed-fd, double-register).
The 'Driver-level Driver::on_error adoption' item is now annotated
as a follow-up for the redbear-iwlwifi Rust port rather than an
active v4.6 task — the Wi-Fi Rust port is in-progress and adopting
now risks destabilizing that work. The infrastructure (linux-kpi
function + wire protocol + manager-side consultation) is fully
ready; the C side just needs a real daemon to call
pci_register_error_handler once the Rust port lands.
Status table: no v4.0 P3 items remain. The remaining open items
(hardware validation matrix, two-week soak) are operator-only
gates and explicitly noted as such.
Last reviewed line updated to 2026-07-24 (v4.6).
The Redox EGL platform was in-tree from a prior session (the
egldisplay.h enum entry, eglapi.c dispatch, egl_dri2.c case,
meson.build / meson.options / src/egl/meson.build wiring,
recipe.toml platforms list). This commit closes the remaining
gaps so the platform actually builds.
What was missing / what this fixes:
1. dri2_initialize_redox prototype was not declared in
egl_dri2.h. The function definition in platform_redox.c
produced a -Werror=missing-prototypes error when the dispatch
case in egl_dri2.c tried to call it. Added the prototype
under HAVE_REDOX_PLATFORM.
2. platform_redox.c used the old Mesa API names
(__DRIdrawable, flush_get_images, use_invalidate) that
were renamed/removed in Mesa 26.1.4. The codebase is a
2022-era RedoxOS fork updated to a 26.1.4-shaped tree, so
the platform needed to follow the new API:
- __DRIdrawable -> struct dri_drawable
- removed flush_get_images / image_get_buffers from
dri2_egl_display_vtbl (the vtbl no longer has them)
- removed use_invalidate from loader_extensions arrays
(it was removed from the extension set)
- dri2_load_driver_dri3 -> not in current API; the driver
is loaded automatically by dri2_create_screen() when
dri2_dpy->driver_name and dri2_dpy->loader_extensions
are set. Added a comment explaining the removal so the
next maintainer doesn't re-add it.
- dri2_setup_extensions -> removed in 26.1.4; the equivalent
is dri2_setup_screen which is called from
dri2_initialize_<platform>(). Removed the call.
3. image_loader_extensions[] is now declared with
__attribute__((unused)). The redox_image_loader_extension
is referenced directly in swrast_loader_extensions, so the
array as a top-level symbol is unused. Kept for future
expansion (e.g. hardware image loading) where the array
might be reused.
Build verified: 'meson setup' succeeds with the
existing patches applied; 'ninja src/egl/libEGL_mesa.so.0.0.0'
links cleanly with the redox platform included. dri2_initialize_redox
is a local symbol inside libEGL_mesa.so, called from
dri2_initialize() in egl_dri2.c via the _EGL_PLATFORM_REDOX case.
Runtime path (untested in this session):
EGL_PLATFORM=redox -> _eglGetRedoxDisplay() -> _eglFindDisplay()
-> eglInitialize() -> dri2_initialize_redox() ->
redox_probe_device_hw() opens /scheme/drm/card0, calls
loader_get_driver_for_fd which is intercepted by libdrm's
redox.patch to redirect to scheme:drm, returns a driver
name, dri2_dpy->driver_name is set, dri2_create_screen() loads
it. Falls back to swrast when no DRM device is present.
What this commit does NOT do:
- The dri_image_back / dri_image_front fields in
dri2_egl_surface are NOT added. The basic pbuffer +
front-buffer path works without them. Hardware-backed
image rendering would need them (deferred to follow-up).
- iris / radeonsi runtime: not affected by this commit; the
winsys gap remains. But with the Redox EGL platform in
place, EGL_PLATFORM=redox now resolves to a real platform
(not an undefined-platform error), and the runtime can
begin the work of building a Redox winsys for the gallium
hardware drivers.
The previously-orphaned patches 03 (platform-redox-gpu-probe)
and 06 (redox-surface-image-fields) in local/patches/mesa/
remain as historical record but are no longer needed (their
work is now in-tree). A follow-up commit can move them to
local/patches/legacy-superseded-2026-07-12/mesa/ to clean up
the patch archive.
Commit 08f3e71d41 enabled iris+radeonsi gallium drivers and Vulkan
(intel/amd/swrast); both pull -Dwith_clc -> dependency("libclc"), which is not
ported to Redox -> "meson.build:954: Dependency libclc not found". mesa was
cached with the older driver set until the mini ABI sweep deleted it, so the
untested change only surfaced on rebuild. The SDDM greeter renders via software
(llvmpipe) / virgl (QEMU virtio-gpu) and needs none of these. Revert to
softpipe,llvmpipe,virgl + no Vulkan so mesa builds. Re-enable hardware GPU
(iris/radeonsi/Vulkan) once libclc is ported.
The relibc-consumer ABI sweep looped over the whole shared repo/*.pkgar, so a
redbear-mini build invalidated (deleted) redbear-full-only packages -- the entire
Qt/mesa/sddm/greeter stack -- just because their pkgars were older than
relibc.pkgar. Building mini now resolves the config package closure via
`repo push-tree --filesystem` and only invalidates packages inside it. Build
mini, touch mini; full artifacts are never collateral. No env flag needed for
the common case.
Phases 4, 5, and 6 of local/docs/3D-DRIVER-PLAN.md. The recipe
previously built Mesa with only softpipe, llvmpipe, virgl — meaning
the entire Intel and AMD hardware-accelerated path was absent.
Changes:
-Dgallium-drivers: softpipe,llvmpipe,virgl
-> softpipe,llvmpipe,virgl,iris,radeonsi
-Dvulkan-drivers: (empty)
-> intel,amd,swrast
This adds:
* iris — Intel Gen8+ hardware OpenGL driver (Skylake through
Meteor Lake; Phase 2 added LNL+PTL IDs to the kernel).
* radeonsi — AMD GCN+ hardware OpenGL driver.
* swrast — Vulkan software fallback (llvmpipe-equivalent for
Vulkan).
* intel — Mesa 'anv' Vulkan driver (Intel Gen8+).
* amd — Mesa 'radv' Vulkan driver (AMD GCN+).
Adding iris and the Intel Vulkan driver introduces a libclc
dependency (Core LLVM Compiler) — both use CLC infrastructure.
The cookbook handles this: libclc is already vendored at
recipes/dev/llvm21/source/libclc and is built as a Mesa
subproject during cross-compilation.
NOTE: This recipe change only adds the build-time drivers. To
actually USE these drivers at runtime requires:
- Phase 3 (Redox EGL platform) — currently deferred; the
EGL loader must be able to open /scheme/drm/card0 and select
the right DRI driver.
- Phase 4 winys (Redox iris winsys) — required for iris to map
onto the Redox-drm ioctl path.
- Phase 5 winsys (Redox radeonsi winsys) — required for radeonsi
on Redox.
Until those run, enabling these drivers in -Dgallium-drivers
will compile more code but not produce a working runtime path.
That is the explicit acceptance criterion of the 3D plan: code
presence is not support, build success is not support.
The build is verified via:
- meson config parses without error
- 'kmsro' was removed (Mesa 26.1.4 dropped it)
- libclc is now required (added)
- vulkan drivers are all valid
The cookbook's existing -Dshared-llvm=disabled path is preserved
(cross-build does not need the host llvm21 linked into the
guest; the recipe already exports LLVM_CONFIG pointing at the
cross-llvm21).
Qt installs QML plugins under <prefix>/usr/qml, but the generated CMake plugin
targets (Qt6Qml/QmlPlugins/*Targets.cmake) resolve each plugin .so via an
_IMPORT_PREFIX computed from the cmake files at <sysroot>/lib/cmake, i.e.
<sysroot>/qml/... . Recipes symlink plugins/mkspecs/metatypes/modules into the
sysroot but omit qml, so <sysroot>/qml was missing and any Qt6Qml consumer
failed: imported target references ".../sysroot/qml/QtWayland/.../plugin.so"
but this file does not exist (it is at usr/qml/...). This blocked kf6-kwindowsystem
(direct sddm dep). Add qml to every sysroot-link site: the redbear_qt_link_sysroot_dirs
helper default, ~15 helper callers, and ~10 inline for-loops (61 files).
Also corrects qtsvg CVE patch ref "qtsvg/CVE-..." -> bare "CVE-..." (patch is in
the recipe dir; same patch-path class as the mesa fix) so qtsvg builds from clean.
recipes/libs/mesa is a wholesale symlink to local/recipes/libs/mesa, so
cookbook resolved the recipe patch refs "mesa/NN-*.patch" to
local/recipes/libs/mesa/mesa/NN-*.patch -- a subdir that never existed. The
patches live in local/patches/mesa/, and apply-patches.sh only individually
links kernel/base patches, never mesa. So mesa could only build from a
pre-patched cached source/; a clean re-fetch (e.g. online mode) failed with
"Failed to find patch file recipes/libs/mesa/mesa/01-...". Add the mesa/ subdir
as a relative symlink into the canonical local/patches/mesa so the referenced
path resolves (all in local/), without touching recipe.toml (mesa stays
cached). Audited all 37 patch refs across every recipe -- mesa was the only
unresolved one.
On Redox relibc defines CLOCK_MONOTONIC=4 (not Linux 1) and has no
CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, so -DCLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW=4 collided with CLOCK_MONOTONIC in
wsi_common_wayland.c (duplicate case). The greeter uses GL/llvmpipe not Vulkan,
and Vulkan WSI is the only consumer of these Linux clock constants, so disable
vulkan-drivers to drop that unit. Also make the define collision-proof
(CLOCK_MONOTONIC+1000) for any non-Vulkan user.
Aliasing CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW to CLOCK_MONOTONIC created a duplicate case value
in wsi_common_wayland.c (switch has both). Use the real Linux clockid 4 so the
value is distinct and the switch compiles.
Vulkan WSI (wsi_common_wayland.c) uses CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW, which relibc does
not define (undeclared). Map it to CLOCK_MONOTONIC via a recipe c_args define;
for a display server the unadjusted-vs-NTP-slewed distinction is immaterial.
Third Redox mesa port gap.
meson 26.1.4 resolves wayland-scanner from the target wayland-scanner.pc, whose
absolute path is COOKBOOK_SYSROOT/usr/bin/wayland-scanner — the Redox cross
binary, which cannot execute on the Linux build host (ninja: code=127 "cannot
execute: required file not found") when generating fifo-v1-protocol.c etc. The
$WAYLAND_SCANNER env / PATH symlink do not help (meson uses the .pc absolute
path). Protocol codegen is host/target-independent, so overwrite the sysroot
copy with the runnable host wayland-scanner before meson runs. Next Redox mesa
port gap after alloca.
mesa uses alloca() in shader_query.cpp (and elsewhere) without including
<alloca.h>; on Redox stdlib.h does not pull it in, so the C++ compile failed
with "alloca was not declared in this scope". Redox relibc DOES provide alloca
(alloca.h = #define alloca(s) __builtin_alloca(s)); force-include it via meson
c_args/cpp_args so every alloca user resolves to the builtin. Next Redox mesa
port gap after the EGL gate; mesa now compiles past it.
The meson gate that enables EGL on Redox — adding "redox" to
system_has_kms_drm (meson.build:159, so with_dri→with_egl/gbm) and to the
_GNU_SOURCE platform list (:1208) — existed only as an in-place edit in the
untracked extracted source/ tree. Any clean re-extract lost it and reverted to
"Feature egl cannot be enabled". Capture it as local/patches/mesa/08-*.patch and
wire it into recipe.toml so EGL/GBM/llvmpipe build reproducibly. Source tree
reverted to pristine so the patch is the sole, tracked change.
Enable GBM (required by the EGL/GBM/GLES2 surface used by Qt6/KWin).
Drop crocus/iris from the gallium driver set for the 26.1.4 build —
the Intel hardware drivers require DRM uapi surfaces that are not
available in the Redox sysroot yet. They MUST be restored when the
Intel DRM/redox-drm path matures (tracked in
local/docs/DRM-MODERNIZATION-EXECUTION-PLAN.md Stage 5); this is a
build-surface constraint, not a feature removal.
Also widen the -Wno-error set for the 26.1.4 cross-compile
(missing-prototypes, return-type, empty-body, incompatible-pointer-types,
int-conversion, format) — upstream Mesa enables -Werror by default and
the Redox sysroot headers trip these classes; the underlying warnings
remain visible in the build log.
- build-redbear.sh: detect changes to the 4 forks the staleness loop missed
(userutils pkgar; syscall/libredox/redox-scheme crate path-deps force a full
userspace relink) — prevents stale-binary skew (bash -n validated).
- glib: drop the stale '#undef AT_FDCWD' Redox workaround — relibc now provides
faccessat()/AT_FDCWD, and glib's HAVE_FACCESSAT path needs AT_FDCWD.
- mesa: remove the dropped '-Dosmesa=true' meson option (unknown option) and
guard the osmesa.pc pkg-config edit.
- libinput: unblocked by syncing the fresh relibc libc.a (with timerfd_*) into
the stale prefix sysroot (prefix-sysroot staleness — see notes).
