Track base 01200174 (smolnetd empty-router/broadcast warnings silenced, e1000e
82574 NIC support). redbear-sessiond: suppress the harmless first dbus connect
retry so it does not print an alarming line on every boot.
Track relibc submodule pointer 733da068 (translate POSIX F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC 1030 to
Redox syscall value 5, so OwnedFd::try_clone and thus tokio Runtime::build stop
failing with EINVAL). Also revert the ineffective epoll_ctl retry.
Remove temporary tokio/sessiond EINVAL diagnostics now that the root cause is
fixed.
relibc is statically linked into every userspace binary, so a relibc change
invalidates every consumer, not just the 4 initfs-critical packages the old
ABI_CRITICAL_PKGS list covered. A stale consumer silently bakes in old relibc
behaviour; diagnosing against such stale binaries wastes enormous time. Now:
if relibc rebuilds, ALL package pkgars + recipe build trees are invalidated
for a clean relink; otherwise any consumer pkgar older than relibc.pkgar (the
interrupted-build skew that shipped a broken login image) is invalidated.
Also add a temporary SESSIOND_DIAG probe that tries each tokio runtime config
and logs which one EINVALs, to pinpoint the tokio-runtime failure.
Phase D of the ACPI fork-sync plan (continuation).
Phase B replaced the `/scheme/kernel.acpi/kstop` filesystem file with
a single Fd-based call() interface. This consumer (redbear-sessiond)
still tried to open the old path and got EBADF, leaving sessiond without
shutdown-watchdog signal emission.
The new implementation:
- Opens `/scheme/kernel.acpi` and uses `openat("kstop", ...)` to
get the kstop sub-handle. The kernel requires the CheckShutdown
kcall to target the sub-handle (HandleBits::KSTOP_HANDLE), not the
parent.
- Uses the new `AcpiVerb::CheckShutdown` (value 2) kcall to poll
the kernel-side shutdown flag every 250ms.
- The poll-based approach was chosen over the event-queue
subscription path (which would require pulling in `redox_event`
and dealing with the `llvm_asm!` macro deprecation). The kernel's
new design supports this polling pattern natively; the wakeup
latency is bounded at 250ms.
Also updates the inner-fork submodule pointers to pick up
the Phase A (kernel re-sync) and Phase C+D (base gap-closing)
commits from local/sources/{kernel,base}.
Files:
- local/recipes/system/redbear-sessiond/source/src/acpi_watcher.rs:
rewrote wait_for_shutdown_edge() to use the new Fd interface.
- local/sources/base: pointer bumped to include Phase C+D gap
fixes (4f2a043 in kernel paired with ae57fe3, d844111, 8140a2c
in base).
- local/sources/kernel: pointer bumped to include the Phase A
ACPI re-sync (RSDP validation, AcpiScheme fevent, new
kcall interface).
Verified by: redbear-mini ISO rebuilt cleanly (2026-06-30 06:28)
and QEMU boot reaches Red Bear login: prompt with redbear-sessiond
working (login1 registered on D-Bus, ACPI shutdown watcher no
longer errors).
- Add x11proto to redbear-full.toml package list
- libxau recipe updated with x11proto dependency and custom build script
- Fixes libxau build failure: 'Package xproto was not found'
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.
The #[cfg(target_os = "redox")] variant of wait_for_shutdown had dead code
after the tokio::select! block. The select already returns Result<(), _>, so
the trailing Ok(()) was unreachable and caused a type mismatch when the compiler
tried to coerce the select result into (). Remove the dead code.
Consolidate the active desktop path around redbear-full while landing the greeter/session stack and the runtime fixes needed to keep Wayland and KWin bring-up moving forward.
