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.
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.
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).
Force probes can be rather expensive on real hardware so according to
the drm_mode_get_connector docs it should only be done at startup, on a
hotplug event and when explicitly requested by the user.
