Two changes to the Redox minimal input backend patch:
1. read_input_line accumulated into a *fresh* String each retry. On the
Redox console pty, a `read_line` can return WouldBlock (or Ok(0))
after only a partial line — the characters just typed — and those
bytes, left in the read_line buffer, were discarded on every retry.
Only a fully-queued line (e.g. a leftover newline) ever came through,
so the shell echoed keystrokes but never executed the command.
Fix: accumulate partial reads into a thread-local buffer that
persists across retries and only yield a line once a newline arrives.
2. Removed all BRUSH-DBG / rb_dbg startup and read tracing (the "debug
mode" output on the console). The functional Redox changes stay:
tokio current-thread runtime and the minimal input backend selection.
Verified: brush-interactive + brush-shell compile. Runtime verification
of the interactive shell still pending a boot test.
Writing startup diagnostics to stderr interleaves with the interactive
console on the live image; /scheme/debug reaches the serial log without
disturbing the shell's tty.
- sync-versions.sh: 11 brush workspace crates 0.x -> 0.3.1 (Cat 1
in-house version policy).
- test-usb-hub-qemu.sh: boot the live ISO (canonical build-redbear.sh
artifact) instead of harddrive.img, which is only produced by older
make-all flows and goes stale — a stale Jul-17 image with a
pre-version-sync bootloader (+rb0.3.0) masked the current build and
crashed the first proof attempt. Falls back to harddrive.img only
when no ISO exists.
- Track base submodule pointer for output_level Warn console-quiet change.
- Capture brush entry.rs redox edits (tokio current-thread runtime, default
minimal input backend) as patches/brush-redox-runtime-and-input.patch and
apply it in the recipe, so a clean source re-fetch keeps the Redox port.
Port the brush shell (reubeno/brush) to Redox and adopt the recipe as a
Red Bear local recipe under local/recipes/shells/brush, with the standard
recipes/shells/brush -> ../../local/recipes/shells/brush overlay symlink so
it takes priority over any upstream WIP copy (per local/AGENTS.md "Local
recipe priority vs upstream WIP"). Removes the old recipes/wip/shells/brush.
The dependency tree did not build for Redox: nix 0.31 only partially
cfg-enables Redox and the libc crate's Redox module omits POSIX symbols that
relibc provides. Fixes are reviewable unified diffs under
local/recipes/shells/brush/patches/:
nix-0.31-redox.patch cfg-enable resource/Id/waitid/from_siginfo, rlimit
import + repr(i32), SaFlags width casts, pty.
libc-0.2-redox.patch add idtype_t, P_*/CLD_*, rusage, getrusage/waitid/
forkpty externs, siginfo child accessors.
brush-umask-redox.patch mode_t is signed on Redox; cast, not u32::from.
The recipe runs `cargo fetch` to materialise registry sources before
patching (they are only unpacked during the build), resolves the right
crate version from Cargo.lock (brush pulls both nix 0.26 and 0.31), and
applies each patch idempotently, failing loudly on version drift. The
binary target is named `brush` (not `brush-shell`), so install it
explicitly. Verified: cooks from a pristine cargo cache using only the
patch files. brush is shipped in redbear-mini as a package for in-image
validation; the login shell stays zsh until brush is runtime-proven.
