The working tree had accumulated git-tracking drift across the
local/sources, local/recipes/*/source, and local/reference trees.
Restored:
- local/sources/libredox: add missing 160000 gitlink at
d01da350 (submodule/libredox). The .gitmodules entry already
declared this fork; the parent tree entry was missing so a
fresh clone of the parent would not pull the libredox source.
- .gitignore: mark the four local/recipes/*/source build-cache
trees (uutils-tar, ninja-build, sddm, sddm/source-pristine)
and the two local/reference/* entries (linux-7.1, seL4) as
ignored. These are build caches and external references, not
durable Red Bear code. The durable code for the four recipes
is recipe.toml + the corresponding patch (redox.patch).
- Note in .gitignore: do not extend local/recipes/**/source to
a blanket rule, because ~150 Red Bear fork recipes do keep
their durable source under local/recipes/<name>/source/.
Removed six broken 160000 gitlinks:
- local/recipes/archives/uutils-tar/source (e4c2affa...): on-disk
working tree was a self-clone of RedBear-OS; gitlink pointed to
a non-existent commit in the parent object database.
- local/recipes/dev/ninja-build/source (d829f42b...): gitlink
was a dangling commit on a diverged branch that has since been
rewritten; the on-disk HEAD is upstream v1.13.1 (79feac0) which
the recipe re-fetches via recipe.toml anyway. The 6.4MB
embedded .git directory was also removed.
- local/recipes/kde/sddm/source (63780fcd...): build cache for
sddm 0.21.0 re-fetched via recipe.toml. The 11MB embedded
.git directory was also removed.
- local/recipes/kde/sddm/source-pristine (63780fcd...): empty
placeholder, build cache. Removed.
- local/reference/linux-7.1 (ab9de95c...): external Linux
reference tree, gitignored by size. The on-disk directory
is preserved per AGENTS.md 'NEVER delete the reference tree'.
- local/reference/seL4 (a0b4f2d2...): empty placeholder,
gitignored.
Removed untracked pollution at repo root:
- kernel (empty 0-byte file)
- qqmljsgrammar.cpp, qqmljsgrammar_p.h, qqmljsparser.cpp,
qqmljsparser_p.h (393KB total: build artifacts that escaped
a qtdeclarative build into the working tree root; they belong
inside the recipe source tree, not at the parent level)
Added:
- local/docs/MULTITHREADING-COMPREHENSIVE-ASSESSMENT-AND-PLAN.md:
comprehensive multi-threading audit and implementation plan
covering kernel scheduler, kernel futex, syscall ABI, relibc
pthreads, and userspace threading correctness. Will drive
the next implementation cycle after the git tracking work
is wrapped.
After this commit:
- 9 submodule entries in HEAD, all of local/sources/* forks.
- All previously-existing 8 fork submodules unchanged.
- libredox is now durable across clones (was previously lost).
- No untracked files at root.
- No dangling or self-referencing gitlinks.
kernel (2 commits):
- drop -Z json-target-spec (redundant with --target)
- add MWAIT idle_loop for deeper C-states on modern CPUs (Phase G)
ninja-build (1 commit):
- add Redox subprocess fork/exec and GetLoadAverage support
- Remove recipe target directories (47GB)
- Clean build directory artifacts
- Remove old temp logs
- Clean Cargo target directories
- Free disk space from 32GB to 91GB available
Core fixes to get redbear-mini building and booting via UEFI:
relibc: Use 'VaListImpl as va_list' in syslog so cbindgen outputs va_list
instead of unknown VaListImpl type (matches stdio pattern). Fixes
openssl3 and all C consumers of syslog.h.
base fork (f97da5b0): ps2d missing info! import, ps2d dead variable,
fbcond drm-0.15 API fix, acpid 31 errors (ivrs/mcfg modules, duplicate
methods, packed fields, dmar copy-paste bug), bootstrap abort_immediate
removal (feature removed from nightly)
redox-driver-sys: Add PciQuirkFlags re-export for crate-root imports
bash: Regenerate P1-mksyntax-host-headers.patch with proper unified diff
m4: Fix getlocalename_l unsafe wrapper
config: Comment out mc (requires glib-2.0 chain, not needed for mini)
UEFI boot verified in QEMU — boots to RedBear login prompt.

- Create local/docs/PACKAGE-BUILD-QUIRKS.md: central reference for all
known cross-compilation build issues (DYNAMIC_INIT behavior, m4
CFLAGS/LDFLAGS ordering, ninja-build BUILD_TESTING, general patterns)
- Update UPSTREAM-SYNC-PROCEDURE.md: add m4 LDFLAGS ordering quirk
(must be set AFTER DYNAMIC_INIT), ninja-build BUILD_TESTING=OFF,
DYNAMIC_INIT overwrite behavior, source reversion root cause summary
- Update AGENTS.md: reference PACKAGE-BUILD-QUIRKS.md in WHERE TO LOOK
table, add DYNAMIC_INIT and cross-compilation test conventions
- Fix ninja-build recipe: add cmakeflags=['-DBUILD_TESTING=OFF']
(tests require host gtest which conflicts with Redox sysroot stdlib.h)
Base fork workspace pins redox_syscall = '0.7.4' (resolves to 0.7.5).
Without this pin, redox-driver-sys pulls in 0.8.1, causing type mismatches
in downstream crates like driver-graphics that use both 0.7.5 and 0.8.1
types in the same expression.
The previous patch left a broken `__redox__ && HAVE_GETLOCALENAME_L`
branch that referenced the non-existent relibc function `getlocalename_l`,
causing the m4 build to fail with:
error: #error "Please port gnulib getlocalename_l-unsafe.c to your platform!"
Redox's relibc has no `getlocalename_l` symbol. The patch now uses
`__redox__ && !HAVE_GETLOCALENAME_L` and returns "C" (matching
the existing `__ANDROID__` branch behaviour for unknown locales),
so the build no longer hits the gnulib #error.
