Daemons log via OutputBuilder::stderr() at output_level, which shares the
interactive console/login VT. At Info they spam routine chatter (cpufreqd,
thermald, i2c-hidd, ...) over the login prompt as boot continues in
parallel with getty. Drop the console filter to Warn; full Info logs are
still written to per-daemon log files (file_level), and a bootloader env
var can raise it for debugging.
fbcond now mirrors all framebuffer-console output to the kernel debug (serial)
scheme AND feeds serial input back into the active VT's input queue. Previously,
once fbcond took over the console after display handoff the serial line went
silent (headless operators saw the boot stop at 'Performing handoff' and never
saw the getty login prompt, which draws only to the framebuffer VT). Now the
same console — boot log, login prompt, and shell — is fully usable over serial,
reusing the working framebuffer getty for both surfaces.
- smolnetd: an empty ip_router (DHCP-managed or deliberately network-less like
the bare target) is a valid 'no default gateway' state, not a malformed config
-> no warning.
- router: a limited/directed IPv4 broadcast (DHCP DISCOVER to 255.255.255.255
before any lease/route exists) legitimately has no routing-table entry; don't
warn 'No route found' for broadcast destinations.
- e1000d: add the 82574L (0x10d3, QEMU '-device e1000e') to the E1000 match
list; it keeps the legacy descriptor/register interface this driver uses.
I219 is intentionally excluded (integrated MDIO PHY, different init).
- init: add condition_path_exists so optional-daemon units (dbus, seatd,
thermald, evdevd) are silently skipped when their binary is absent in a
minimal image, instead of emitting [FAILED] 'No such file or directory' on
the bare target. Boot-critical units omit the field and still hard-fail.
- ahcid: an empty ATAPI/optical drive (QEMU's default DVD-ROM, most bare-metal
optical bays) failed READ CAPACITY and logged 4 ERROR lines every boot;
register it with a zero block count as a normal no-media state and drop the
HBA register dump to debug level.
- netstack: a machine with no NIC (bare, or an unsupported NIC) logged an ERROR
and exited non-zero; treat 'no network adapter' as a normal idle state
(info + clean exit).
- dhcpd: cut the socket timeout 30s -> 8s so the network stage fails fast when
no DHCP server answers instead of stalling boot.
Re-adds the archived-but-unapplied scrollback support: a 1000-line ring
buffer in TextScreen capturing all output (incl. pre-handoff boot log), a
Handle::Scrollback variant opened via /scheme/fbcon/<vt>/scrollback, and a
read path returning the retained buffer. Adapted to the current single-step
openat scheme protocol.
The ACPI _LNK object enumeration logged 50+ INFO lines per boot on QEMU
(one per _UID/_CRS/_STA/_DIS/_SRS/_HID method), flooding the console and
slowing serial boot. This is PCI interrupt-routing detail, not needed at
INFO on every boot; move it to debug.
The suspend_to_ram, read_battery_status, and read_battery_info methods
were incorrectly placed inside 'impl Drop for PhysmapGuard'. They
reference fields (aml_symbols, fadt) that only exist on AcpiContext.
Move them to impl AcpiContext and fix field access (self.fadt.as_ref()
instead of self.fadt()).
- try_mem now returns Result (matching caller expectations)
- try_map_bar: non-panicking BAR mapping on PciFunctionHandle
- try_pci_allocate_interrupt_vector: non-panicking IRQ allocation
- virtio-core: reverted .ok_or() back to .map_err() for Result type
Added try_mem() returning Option<(usize, usize)> for non-panicking
memory BAR access. Fixed virtio-core/probe.rs to use .ok_or() instead
of .map_err() to match the Option return type.
Per local/docs/PATCH-PRESERVATION-AUDIT-2026-07-12.md the base
fork was carrying only 38 of 100 patches in local/patches/base/.
The other 62 patches' content was silently missing from the fork
working tree, even though their .patch files were preserved.
This commit re-applies 41 patches that genuinely still apply
cleanly + 17 hunks that partially applied. Recovery covers:
- D-Bus initfs service wiring (P4-initfs-dbus-services)
- USB service wiring (P4-initfs-usb-drm-services)
- netcfg/dhcp/dhcpv6 driver fixes
- acpid shutdown/PM/quirk fixes
- inputd/ps2d hard-fail logging
- pcid driver interface refinements (server cmd channel)
- virtio-core for VirtualBox support
- ixgbed/rtl8139/rtl8168 net drivers
- ahcid NCQ + per-function interrupt coalescing
- logd persistent logging
- bootstrap procmgr race-condition fixes
- cargo version pin to +rb0.3.0 (synchronized release branch)
58 files changed, +1444/-318 lines.
Untracked mnt/ tree and *.orig / *.rej files cleaned up after
patch application (leftover from absolute-path patch headers).
Otherwise, an open call to /scheme/acpi/tables will result in nsmgr
blocking on an `openat(acpi_root, "tables")` call, which will never
occur if acpid is itself blocking on a `ForkNs` call to nsmgr before it
can serve any scheme requests.
This functionality is needed according to POSIX. Additionally, some
logic had to be changed in order for the ptsname to be correct for the
manager terminal (ptmx). If you want to obtain a pty, you must go
through the `posix_openpt`-`grantpt`-`unlockpt`-`ptsname`-`open`
process. Alternatively, relibc as a function called `openpty`.
This is part of my ptyd series. This can be safely merged once the MRs
for relibc/ and userutils/ are merged at the same time.
