P21: Replace 67 panic-grade calls across 9 boot daemon files with
graceful error handling. Affected: ps2d, inputd, fbcond, fbbootlogd.
P22: Add x2APIC MADT fallback for processors with LocalApic entries
instead of LocalX2Apic entries. QEMU KVM boots now correctly detect
all vCPUs via zero-extended APIC ID fallback.
P23: Change 50_rootfs.service from requires_weak to requires on
40_drivers.target, ensuring redoxfs waits for disk drivers before
attempting filesystem mount. This fixes the boot race where rootfs
mount failed before drivers were ready, causing init to have no
userland services after switchroot.
ramfs@.service required randd as requires_weak, which doesn't enforce
readiness ordering. When ramfs called std::random before randd registered
/scheme/rand, it panicked with 'failed to generate random data'.
Changed requires_weak to requires so init waits for randd to register
its scheme before starting ramfs.
Also patched Rust stdlib sys/random/redox.rs to fall back to xorshift64
seeded from ASLR rather than panicking when /scheme/rand is unavailable.
This is a belt-and-suspenders fix: even with proper ordering, the stdlib
should not panic on missing entropy during early boot.
x2APIC ICR mode fix cannot be a forward patch because P16-1-sipi-timing
references the ICR line as context. Modifying P1 (which introduces the line)
would require updating P16-1's offsets. Will address by consolidating into
an existing early patch in a future revision.
- Add RawFb struct: direct framebuffer rendering via physmap
- Add RawTextScreen: simple text renderer using orbclient font
- Fallback in FbbootlogScheme::new() when V2GraphicsHandle fails
- Reads FRAMEBUFFER_ADDR/WIDTH/HEIGHT/STRIDE from bootloader env
- Scroll via ptr::copy on pixel rows, clear bottom line
- No DRM, no shadow buffer, no GPU required — like MS-DOS text mode
- Add common dependency to fbbootlogd Cargo.toml
- Fix LocalX2Apic handler: use local_apic.x2 to select correct ICR
format (<<32 for x2APIC, <<56 for xAPIC) instead of hardcoded <<32
- Promote x2APIC/xAPIC detection from debug! to info! for bootlog
- Document build system durability in AGENTS.md: cardinal rule,
two-layer architecture, correct workflow, anti-patterns
P5: Enable PRIME export for GBM dumb buffers so virgl can import scanout\nbuffers via fd-to-handle.
P6: Add redox_probe_device_hw() that opens /scheme/drm/card0, resolves the\nDRI driver via PCI ID lookup (loader_get_driver_for_fd), and initializes the\nhardware path through dri2_load_driver_dri3 with __DRIimageLoaderExtension.\nIncludes fprintf(stderr) debug logging tagged [REDOX-EGL] for tracing the\nHW init sequence. Falls back to software rendering if HW probe fails.
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.
Consolidate ~30 absorbed base patches into surviving carriers. Add
new init service files, driver sources, and network/storage modules
for the base recipe. Move absorbed patches to local/patches/base/absorbed/.
Fixes C compilation failures where signal.h (via signalfd_siginfo struct)
uses uint32_t/int32_t/uint64_t without stdint.h being transitively included.
The include chain signal.h -> sys/types.h -> sys/types/internal.h lacked
stdint.h, causing 'unknown type name' errors for uint32_t, uint8_t, and
uintptr_t in any C package compiling against the relibc sysroot headers.
Affected: diffutils, libiconv, and all packages whose autoconf checks
included <signal.h> and failed on the missing stdint types.
Added 'stdint.h' to sys_includes in sys_types_internal/cbindgen.toml.
Durable in local/patches/relibc/P3-sys-types-stdint-include.patch.
- procmgr.rs: SIGCHLD EPERM → debug (backed by P0-procmgr-sigchld-debug.patch)
- 40_ps2d.service: type notify → oneshot_async (PS/2 doesn't block boot)
Both were working-tree changes flagged by Oracle as not committed.
Phase S1 (Critical Correctness):
- sem_open/sem_close: global refcounting via BTreeMap + AtomicUsize
- sem_close: decrements refcount, munmaps only at zero
- sem_open: reuses existing mapping, O_EXCL returns EEXIST
- sem_unlink: marks entry for removal before shm_unlink
- va_list parsing: reads mode_t and value from stack after oflag
- All 11 sem_* functions verified in libc.so T
Phase S2-S4 (Designed, documented):
- eventfd() function, signalfd read path, EINTR handling
- name canonicalization, cancellation safety
- Full plan in local/docs/RELIBC-AGAINST-GLIBC-ASSESSMENT.md

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.
