Generated from clean 866dfad0 + consolidated.patch state via diff.
Two hunks for x86_64: comment on line 87 and info! on line 110.
aarch64 (line 94) and riscv64 (line 100) — one hunk each.
Verified: patch applies with --fuzz=0 on top of redbear-consolidated.
Wired into kernel recipe after P8-msi.patch.
check-unwired-patches.sh: scans local/patches/ for .patch files not
referenced in any recipe.toml patches = [...] array. Detects 262
unwired patches (most intentionally kept for reference/rebase).
P2-rebrand-start-message.patch: minimal 39-line patch changing
'Redox OS starting' to 'RedBear OS starting' in x86_64, aarch64,
and riscv64 arch start files. Wired into kernel recipe after
P8-msi.patch. Verified: make r.kernel builds with all 3 patches.
Build system issues surfaced by the detector:
- 250+ kernel individual patches kept for reference (absorbed/)
- ~50 base individual patches — many intentionally unwired
- ~30 relibc patches — may need wiring into relibc recipe
- build-system patches applied by scripts, not recipes
P6-e1000d-msi-migration.patch conflicts with P6-driver-main-fixes.patch
— both modify e1000d/src/main.rs at overlapping lines. The MSI migration
must be merged into P6-driver-main-fixes during the upcoming P6 rebase.
P6-e1000d-msi-migration.patch preserved in local/patches/base/ for reference.
e1000d was the last NIC driver using legacy IRQ (irq.irq_handle()).
Migrated to pci_allocate_interrupt_vector which tries MSI-X first,
then MSI, then falls back to legacy INTx — matching rtl8168d, rtl8139d,
ihdad, ihdgd, and nvmed.
63-line patch at local/patches/base/P6-e1000d-msi-migration.patch,
symlinked and wired into recipes/core/base/recipe.toml.
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.
MouseTx::handle() treated 0xFE (PS/2 RESEND) as an unknown response,
causing mouse init to fail on hardware where the mouse requests a
resend during the reset/command exchange. Now resends the current
command byte when the mouse returns 0xFE, matching the PS/2 protocol.
Bootloader hardcoded RedoxFS partition offset at 2 MiB, which fails when
efi_partition_size > 1 (redbear-full, redbear-grub use 16 MiB, placing
RedoxFS at LBA 34816 = 17 MiB). Added GPT partition table parser that
scans for Linux filesystem GUID (0FC63DAF) to find the actual offset.
Also removed invalid 'respawn = true' from 31_debug_console.service in
redbear-full.toml — init's service format does not support this field.
Verified: all three ISOs boot in QEMU UEFI and reach login prompt.
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.
5-phase hardening to prevent silent file-layer collisions (the D-Bus
regression class):
Phase 1: lint-config-paths.sh + make lint-config in depends.mk
Phase 2: CollisionTracker in installer (content-hash comparison)
Phase 3: installs manifests in recipe.toml + validate-file-ownership.sh
Phase 4: validate-init-services.sh + make validate in disk.mk
Phase 5: documentation (AGENTS.md, BUILD-SYSTEM-HARDENING-PLAN.md)
Both redbear-mini and redbear-full build and validate clean.
66 declared install paths in base, zero conflicts.
P1 (ACPI/PCI/xHCI, 11 patches) and P5 (init hardening, 2 patches)
exist in local/patches/base/ but cannot be wired due to conflicts
from redox.patch removal. Documented with # TODO rebase notes
per PATCH-GOVERNANCE.md rules.
Fixed common dependency path (../../common → ../common).
Added workspace member entry for drivers/thermald.
thermald now builds as part of base recipe.
19/19 patches. base + base-initfs build.
P3-3: fbcond scrollback — captures last 1000 lines of text output
in ring buffer, exposes via read_scrollback(). Patch created but
needs line number adjustment for clean application.
P3-5: thermal daemon source created at drivers/thermald/. Reads
ACPI thermal zone temperature, logs warnings >65°C, errors >80°C.
Needs Cargo.toml workspace integration and recipe.toml BINS entry.
Part of COMPREHENSIVE-FIX-PLAN-FINAL P3 implementation.
Bootloader: alloc_zeroed_page_aligned no longer panics on OVMF
AllocatePages failure. Returns null on error.
Cookbook: pkgar falls back to repo/ dir when target pkgar missing.
Resolves KDE build chain failure.
redbear-full: builds 4.0GB image+ISO, boots without crash.
Boot process now includes:
- 25_serial_getty.service: getty on serial console (visible in QEMU -nographic)
- 29_activate_console.service: inputd -A 2 (activate VT2)
- 30_console.service: getty on VT2 (framebuffer console)
Fixed hunk counts (7→8, 8→9) for correct patch application.
Services use 'oneshot_async' type for fire-and-forget startup.
ZSH is the default shell for all user accounts (base.toml, mini, full, greeter).
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.
Phase B1+B2 from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT:
- 45_usbscsid.service: USB mass storage driver in initfs (requires xhcid)
- 30_redox-drm.service: DRM/KMS display driver in initfs (requires hwd+pcid-spawner)
Both condition-architecture-gated to x86/x86_64.
Phase A1 from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT. The ACPI shutdown path now:
- Validates PM1a port is non-zero before writing
- Waits 3 seconds for power-off, then retries with PM1b+SLEEP_EN
- Falls back to keyboard controller reset (0x64=0xFE) on failure
- Handles SLP_TYPb correctly
- Removes fragile Pio::new()+write() without validation
logd now writes all log output to /var/log/system.log (5MB auto-rotation)
in addition to existing scheme listeners. Falls back to /tmp/logd-fallback.log
if /var/log is unavailable. Logs survive reboots for post-mortem analysis.
Part of Phase A2 (Boot Reliability) from BOOT-PROCESS-AUDIT-2026-05-03.
The 556MB monolithic redox.patch was impossible to manage, unreviewable,
blocked GitHub pushes, and could only grow. This commit:
- Moves all 64 absorbed patches from absorbed/ to active use in base/
- Removes the absorbed/ directory (consolidation history is now PATCH-HISTORY.md)
- Removes the redox.patch symlink from recipes/core/base/
- Fixes all recipe symlinks to point to active patches (not absorbed/)
- Patches are now individually wired, reviewable, and independently rebasable
The redox.patch mega-file is no longer needed — individual patches
are applied directly from the recipe.toml patches list.
Build system (src/cook/fetch.rs):
- Atomic patch application: applies patches to staging directory (cp -al),
atomically swaps on success, discards on failure — source tree is never
left in a partially-patched state
- normalize_patch(): strips diff --git/index/new-file-mode headers that the
build system's patch command does not recognize
- cleanup_workspace_pollution(): removes orphaned recipes/Cargo.toml and
recipes/Cargo.lock to prevent workspace conflicts
- Added --allow-protected CLI flag to repo binary
Input stack (local/patches/base/P3-*.patch):
- P3-ps2d-led-feedback: PS/2 LED state handling + InputProducer migration
- P3-inputd-keymap-bridge: InputProducer enum, keymap bridge query
- P3-usbhidd-hardening: HID descriptor validation, static lookup table,
8-button mouse support, transfer retry with exponential backoff
- P3-init-colored-output: ANSI-color coded init daemon output (green OK,
red FAILED, yellow SKIP/WARN)
XKB bridge (local/recipes/system/redbear-keymapd/source/src/xkb.rs):
- Parses X11 xkb/symbols/* format, maps XKB keycodes to PS/2 scancodes,
80+ X11 keysym names to Unicode, 4-level key support
Patch governance (local/patches/base/absorbed/README.md):
- Documents consolidation of P0-P3 patches into redox.patch
Finalize all non-artifact changes accumulated from other sessions:
- config updates, recipe changes, source edits, patches
- pkgar/cache artifacts intentionally excluded (build outputs)
This is the maximum achievable scope for this session.
Hardware-accelerated KDE blocked by: QML gate, KWin/Plasma builds,
hardware GPU validation — all require build system + physical GPU.
- plasma-workspace: stub deps deferrable, not unresolved blockers
- knewstuff/kwallet: deferrable (not blocking plasma builds)
- make all vs make live distinction for rebuild
Verified in QEMU: compositor runs, no exceptions, DRM active.
Greeter reaches 'compositor ready, launching greeter UI'.
All canaries present. Boot completes to login prompt.
Add three relibc patches (42 total) to close QtNetwork-critical socket gaps:
- P3-inet6-pton-ntop: AF_INET6 address parsing/formatting with RFC 5952
shorthand, IPv4-mapped suffix support
- P3-tcp-sockopt-forward: forward IPPROTO_TCP getsockopt/setsockopt to
scheme daemon instead of hitting todo_skip
- P3-dns-aaaa-getaddrinfo-ipv6: AAAA DNS record queries, lookup_host_v6,
dual-stack getaddrinfo with sockaddr_in6 entries
Also fix P3-tcp-nodelay to use sys_call_wo + from_raw_parts (const) in the
SOL_SOCKET setsockopt fallback — setsockopt sends data to the kernel, not
reads from it.
The 17,046-line redox.patch monolith is no longer referenced in the base
recipe. All 27 individual P2 patches are now listed explicitly in
recipe.toml with symlinks to local/patches/base/.
Coverage gap closed: ixgbed/src/device.rs was the only file not covered
by any individual patch. Added P2-ixgbed-error-handling.patch for the
10GbE Intel driver error handling (println → log::info/warn/error).
Build verified: CI=1 make r.base completes successfully with the new
patch list. The monolith file is preserved as backup but no longer applied.
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).
relibc select_epoll() forced timeout=0 when any FD doesn't support epoll
(e.g. TTY on Redox), causing busy-loop. Poll with 100ms interval instead.
Also add stdint.h to signal/cbindgen.toml sys_includes so signalfd_siginfo
struct types (uint32_t, int32_t) resolve without build errors.
