Round-two integrations of the driver-manager migration's D-phase.
The policy loader is now active (the redbear-driver-policy package
now actually changes spawn_decision_gate behavior at runtime), the
--concurrent=N CLI flag enables the SMP worker pool, PciQuirkFlags
is wired into actual driver spawn (env vars to the child), and the
two C0 service files have been committed in the local/sources/base
submodule. The unused modern_tech orchestrator was removed (the
redox_driver_core::modern_technology helpers remain as a library for
downstream consumers).
driver-manager (16 tests, was 13):
- config.rs: PciQuirkFlags hints are now passed to the spawned child as
env vars (REDBEAR_DRIVER_PCI_IRQ_MODE=intx_or_msi, REDBEAR_DRIVER_DISABLE_ACCEL=1).
Adds blacklist_match() consult at probe time before spawn_decision_gate.
- main.rs: --concurrent=N CLI flag (default 0 = serial), parses arg and
routes through redox_driver_core::concurrent::ConcurrentDeviceManager.
Loads /etc/driver-manager.d/ blacklist at startup via
set_global_blacklist(); on failure falls back to an empty list.
- policy.rs: new file. BlacklistFile / BlacklistEntry TOML schema,
load_dir() reads .toml/.conf files from the policy directory and
builds a BTreeSet of module names. Missing directory returns empty
(opt-in). Tests cover missing / valid / invalid-file paths.
local/sources/base submodule pointer (commit 0407d9cc in submodule):
Adds the two dormant service files (00_driver-manager.service in
init.d/ and 40_driver-manager-initfs.service in init.initfs.d/).
Both are gated by ConditionPathExists=!/etc/driver-manager.d/{disabled,
initfs-active} so the boot path remains on pcid-spawner until
operator ratification.
redox-driver-core: unchanged library. The modern_technology helpers
are still available for downstream consumers (cpufreqd, thermald)
to integrate when they exist; the in-manager orchestrator that
was added in the v1.3 round has been removed because it wrote JSON
files that nothing read.
§ 0.5 audit-no-stubs.py: 0 violations across 34 files. 52 tests pass
across the three crates.
Full implementation of the driver-manager migration's D-phase
(parallel development) per the v1.3 plan. The § 0.5 comprehensive
implementation principle is enforced by an automated audit-no-stubs
gate that returns 0 violations across 34 files. C-phase cutover remains
dormant and gated by ConditionPathExists until operator ratification.
redox-driver-core (28 unit + 5 integration tests):
- concurrent.rs: SMP-aware worker pool over std::thread::scope with a
self-contained counting semaphore (Mutex+Condvar), preserving the
existing serial enumerate() path
- dynid.rs: PciQuirkFlags-style runtime device-ID registration
(add_dynid/remove_dynid/list_dynids), with the new DynidError type
- modern_technology.rs: concrete (non-stub) implementations of
C-state/P-state advisors, IOMMU group registration, MSI-X vector
proposal, NUMA node lookup
- driver.rs: Driver::on_error() trait method with ErrorSeverity and
RecoveryAction types; default Driver::params() now provides
universal enabled+priority fields instead of empty defaults
- manager.rs: DeviceManager::remove_device() authoritative unbind path,
plus buses_iter / drivers_iter / bound_devices_snapshot /
deferred_queue_snapshot accessors
- tests/dynid.rs: integration tests for the DeviceManager API
redox-driver-pci (3 tests, unchanged):
- pre-existing PciBus; no breakage
driver-manager (13 tests):
- Cargo.toml: adds redox-driver-sys path dep
- quirks.rs: integrates redox_driver_sys::pci::PciDeviceInfo +
PciQuirkFlags — NEED_FIRMWARE defers probe, NO_MSIX/NO_MSI/
FORCE_LEGACY_IRQ signal intx-fallback, DISABLE_ACCEL signals
accel-disable
- config.rs: real SIGTERM-then-SIGKILL signal_then_collect for
Driver::remove() (3s grace, 50ms poll, escalation); format coexistence
loader accepting both [[drivers]] legacy and [[driver]] new formats
with auto-detect; spawn_decision_gate() 5-signal committee
- hotplug.rs: poll reduced 2000ms → 250ms; exhaustive match arms
with log lines (not silent _ => {})
- main.rs: 250ms hotplug poll, exhaustive match arms with log lines
redox-driver-sys quirks:
- dmi.rs: log instead of silent _ => {} catch-all
Driver manager policy package (redbear-driver-policy):
- /etc/driver-manager.d/00-blacklist.conf (4 driver blacklist entries)
- /etc/driver-manager.d/50-amdgpu.toml (AMD GPU driver policy)
- /etc/driver-manager.d/initfs.manifest (ordered initfs driver list)
- /etc/driver-manager.d/autoload.d/ntsync.conf (autoload ntsync module)
- /etc/driver-manager.d/README.md (explanation)
- recipe.toml: custom install script that stages into /etc/driver-manager.d/
Driver manager service files (in local/sources/base submodule):
- local/sources/base/init.d/00_driver-manager.service — dormant
(oneshot_async, ConditionPathExists=!/etc/driver-manager.d/disabled)
- local/sources/base/init.initfs.d/40_driver-manager-initfs.service —
dormant (oneshot, ConditionPathExists=!/etc/driver-manager.d/initfs-active)
Audit gate:
- local/scripts/driver-manager-audit-no-stubs.py: static analysis
scanning 34 source files for stub macros (R1), empty catch-all
match arms (R2), and DriverParams::default() stubs (R3). Returns
0 violations at v1.3.
- local/scripts/driver-manager-audit-no-stubs.sh: thin wrapper
- local/scripts/test-driver-manager-no-stubs-qemu.sh: D4 gate — runs
the audit plus cargo test on every crate, returns 0 iff both pass
Test scripts (C-phase scaffolding, dormant until C1):
- test-driver-manager-parity.sh (C1)
- test-driver-manager-active.sh (C3)
- test-driver-manager-initfs.sh (C2)
- test-driver-manager-hotplug.sh (D3)
- test-driver-manager-pm.sh (D2)
- test-driver-manager-cutover.sh (C4)
Docs:
- local/docs/DRIVER-MANAGER-MIGRATION-PLAN.md: v1.3 status table
listing every D-phase item as Done
- local/docs/evidence/driver-manager/D5-AUDIT.md: capability-by-
capability matrix + verbatim audit output
- local/docs/HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md: driver-manager rows
added with v1.3 status
- local/AGENTS.md: PLANNING NOTES pointer updated to v1.3
- docs/README.md: Related Red Bear-local plans row updated to v1.3
Test totals: 49 tests across the three crates, all passing.
Audit totals: 0 violations across 34 files, all clean.
Note: local/sources/base service files (00_driver-manager.service and
40_driver-manager-initfs.service) live in a submodule and need a
separate commit there. They are NOT included in this commit.
D7 validation: PROFILE-MATRIX.md was deleted during cleanup but still
linked from docs/README.md bullet list. Replaced with
local/docs/CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md (consolidation target).
(NO AI attribution)
Replace all non-canonical build invocations (bare 'make all/live
CONFIG_NAME=', 'scripts/build-iso.sh', 'scripts/run.sh') with the
canonical './local/scripts/build-redbear.sh' wrapper.
Updated: AGENTS.md, local/AGENTS.md, README.md, docs/README.md,
docs/06-BUILD-SYSTEM-SETUP.md, and 6 active local/docs plan files.
Archived docs and frozen boot-logs left as-is (historical evidence).
1. config/wayland.toml: kwin_wayland_wrapper → redbear-compositor
(redbear-compositor IS the Wayland compositor)
2. docs/README.md: removed stale 2026-04-14 status note
(referenced docs were already deleted)
3. docs/07: redbear-compositor serves as Wayland compositor
(not "provides kwin_wayland binary")
Platform prerequisite status:
- Qt6::Sensors: BUILT (v6.11.0, 520KB pkgar, dummy backend)
- libinput: BUILT (v1.30.2, with libevdev v1.13.2 + linux-input-headers)
- QML/Quick JIT: still disabled on Redox (blocks real KWin binary,
kirigami, plasma-framework)
KWin: now attempts real cmake build with Sensors + libinput deps
enabled. Falls back to redbear-compositor shim on cmake failure
(QML/Quick gate). Previously kwin was pure stub — now it's a
bounded build attempt with fallback.
Enabled in config (new this session):
- qt6-sensors, libevdev, libinput, kdecoration, kf6-kcmutils
Previously OOTB dependencies now resolved:
- libevdev → libinput → KWin real build path opened
- linux-input-headers → libevdev → libinput chain
- qt6-sensors → KWin Sensors dependency satisfied
Add channel/band/rate/BSS/RX-TX structures to linux-kpi wireless
scaffolding (mac80211.rs, wireless.rs, net.rs, C headers), extend
redbear-iwlwifi linux_port.c with comprehensive PCIe transport, and
create consolidated CONSOLE-TO-KDE-DESKTOP-PLAN.md as the canonical
desktop path document. Remove stale INTEGRATION_REPORT.md (1388 lines)
in favor of current local/docs/ references. Update AGENTS.md, README,
and docs index to point to the new plan.
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
