Panel now enters archives (.tar, .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz, .zip,
.cpio) when pressing Enter, browsing their contents like directories.
Pressing '..' at the archive root exits back to the local filesystem.
Three new Panel fields: vfs (Box<dyn Vfs> backend), vfs_path (VfsPath
inside archive), vfs_archive (local PathBuf of archive file).
New methods: try_enter_archive(), replace_directory_vfs(),
display_path(), is_in_vfs(), is_archive_extension() helper.
Title bar shows 'archive.tar:/inner/path' when browsing inside an
archive via synthesized display path.
5 new tests for archive extension detection (case-insensitive).
964 tests total, 0 failures.
New filehighlight.rs module categorizes files by extension into 9 types
(Normal, Executable, Archive, Audio, Video, Image, Source, Documentation,
Database). Each type maps to a theme palette color via file_type_color().
entry_style() in mod.rs now applies file type colors for non-directory,
non-symlink files. Executable detection uses permission bits (owner_exec
|| group_exec || other_exec).
13 new unit tests covering all categories, case insensitivity, hidden
files, and edge cases. 959 tests total, 0 failures.
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.

The build-redbear.sh script was applying patches from local/patches/ to
recipes/core/{kernel,base,relibc,installer}/source/ via apply_patch_dir().
For path= (local fork) components, recipes/core/<comp>/source is a SYMLINK
to local/sources/<comp>. The patches went through the symlink and modified
the fork directly — re-adding old code like SchedPolicy that was already
removed from the fork.
This was the root cause of the kernel source reversion bug that caused
intermittent build failures (V157, V159): old patches re-applying stale
code to the synced fork through symlinks.
Fix:
- Remove apply_patch_dir calls for kernel, base, relibc, installer
(all use path= local fork model — changes are committed to the fork)
- Keep apply_patch_dir for bootloader (still uses git= + patches)
- Remove stash_nested_repo_if_dirty for relibc (no patches to stash)
- Update verify-overlay-integrity.sh expected patch symlinks
- Update apply-patches.sh to not create kernel/base patch symlinks
- Fix 005-qtbase signature marker (wrong path: libs → wip/qt)
- Remove 78 old patch symlinks from recipes/core/kernel/ (cleanup)
The old patch symlinks (P0-*.patch through P17-*.patch, redox.patch,
redbear-consolidated.patch) were leftover from the git+patches model.
With path = "../../../local/sources/kernel", the cookbook creates a
symlink to the local fork and does NOT apply any patches. The patches
are preserved in local/patches/kernel/ for reference only.
Use local/sources/kernel/ as path source instead of git+patches.
The fork is synced to upstream b93260ed and has all Red Bear changes
squash-merged. Old patches preserved in local/patches/kernel/ for
reference only.

Use local/sources/installer/ as path source instead of git+patch.
The fork is synced to upstream 142b2d6. The ext4/GRUB patch will
be re-applied to the fork as a follow-up.

Aligns all Red Bear custom recipe dependencies with the syscall 0.8.x
version used by the upstream-synced base and relibc forks.
Author: vasilito <adminpupkin@gmail.com>
The redox arm of acquire_iopl was using 'crate::Result' which is a
1-generic type alias. Use std::result::Result<(), Error> instead.
Also rename unused 'product' param to '_product' in lookup_hid_quirks.
io.rs uses redox_syscall::dup, ::CallFlags, ::ProcSchemeVerb but was
missing the 'use syscall as redox_syscall' alias (was removed earlier
because cargo check passed locally without it, but actual build needs it).
Also fixed: the non-redox arm of acquire_iopl was using crate::Result
which is a 1-generic type alias; std::result::Result with 2 generics
is what's needed here.
Removed leftover cfg attribute and duplicate use crate::Result.
usbhidd references redox_driver_sys::quirks::HidQuirkFlags and
redox_driver_sys::quirks::lookup_hid_quirks. Add these to unblock
HID driver compilation.
Add types referenced by acpid/pcid/xhcid but missing from redox-driver-sys:
- AcpiQuirkFlags: 15 flag variants (OSI disable, battery, lid, sleep)
- ChipsetQuirkFlags, ClocksourceQuirkFlags, CpuBugFlags, UsbAudioQuirkFlags:
empty bitflag structs (full implementation is follow-up)
- ConfigWriteWidth enum, QuirkAction enum, PciConfigWriter trait
- PciQuirkLookup struct, lookup_pci_quirks_full function
- XhciControllerQuirkFlags: 7 variants
- lookup_xhci_controller_quirks_full function
- load_dmi_acpi_quirks function
- Missing PciQuirkFlags: NO_PM_RESET, NO_FLR, BROKEN_INTX_MASKING, NO_PME
- Default impl on PciQuirkFlags (required by lookup return)
Also restored 'use syscall as redox_syscall' alias to all source files
since the redox_syscall crate (0.7.x and 0.8.x) exposes itself as 'syscall'.
This unblocks compilation of base fork's pcid, acpid, xhcid daemons.
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.
When the cookbook copies a Path source into recipes/<name>/source, the
relative 'path = ...' references in [workspace.dependencies] are resolved
relative to the COPY location (recipes/<name>/source/), not the original
fork location (local/sources/<name>/). Since these directories are at
different depths from repo root (3 levels vs 4 levels), no single relative
path can resolve correctly in both locations.
Fix: for Path sources that point inside local/sources/ or local/recipes/,
use symlink instead of copy. The symlink preserves the original location
so the workspace root remains the fork's native directory, and relative
paths resolve consistently.
Also fixes symlink target bug: use canonicalize() to convert the path to
absolute form before symlinking. The previous code used the relative path
as the symlink target, which was resolved relative to the symlink's parent
directory (not where the symlink was created), producing broken symlinks.
fetch_offline() is called for protected recipes (base, kernel, relibc, etc.)
when REDBEAR_ALLOW_PROTECTED_FETCH=1 is set. Previously, its Path source
arm called only redbear_ensure_offline_source() which fails with
'is not exist' if the source dir is empty.
The fix: do the same copy_dir_all() in fetch_offline()'s Path arm as
in fetch()'s Path arm. This means local fork paths (local/sources/base,
local/sources/relibc, etc.) are correctly copied into recipes/<name>/source
during protected recipe fetch.
The redox_syscall crate (0.7.x and 0.8.x) has [lib].name = 'syscall',
so the crate is exposed as 'syscall' in source code, not 'redox_syscall'.
Without the alias, all 'use redox_syscall::...' imports fail to resolve.
Also fixed:
- lib.rs:46,86 'redox_syscall::error::Error' (now resolves via alias)
- io.rs:23 'Result<()>' -> 'Result<(), crate::DriverError>' (Result needs 2 generics)
- Cargo.toml: pin redox_syscall to 0.7 to match the rest of base fork
This restores redox-driver-sys compilation against base fork 0.2.3
reset to redbear-working.
Top-level + local docs audit (2026-06-18). Findings and fixes:
1. AGENTS.md CONVENTIONS section — corrected 'my-' prefix contradiction.
The legacy 'my-*' prefix is deprecated and git-ignored. Use 'redbear-*'
for tracked first-class configs.
2. README.md quick-start — promoted 'local/scripts/build-redbear.sh' to
the recommended entry point. Bare 'scripts/run.sh --build' remains as
a secondary path. Added note about build-redbear.sh's policy gates
(.config checking, REDBEAR_ALLOW_PROTECTED_FETCH=1).
3. docs/06-BUILD-SYSTEM-SETUP.md — restructured Building section to put
'build-redbear.sh' first, then 'make all' as legacy/advanced with
clear notes on what gates it bypasses.
4. docs/05-KDE-PLASMA-ON-REDOX.md — replaced 'Stub-only package for
dependency resolution' wording for kirigami. Per project policy
(local/AGENTS.md STUB AND WORKAROUND POLICY — ZERO TOLERANCE),
stubs are forbidden. The kirigami build is blocked at the QML gate;
the recipe is honest and ships no fake/fallback package.
5. local/docs/BUILD-TOOLS-PORTING-PLAN.md — replaced all 'python312'
references with 'python314' (matches V8.3 P0 bump from earlier).
6. local/AGENTS.md — added 'LOCAL RECIPE SOURCE IMMUTABILITY' section
documenting the cb8b093564 guarantee. Any path matching
/local/recipes/ is unconditionally immutable; no env var or flag
can override. REDBEAR_ALLOW_LOCAL_UNFETCH=1 was removed as a kill
switch and is now dead code. distclean-nuclear is now a no-op for
local recipes.
Internal Red Bear subprojects (tlc, redbear-*, redbear-greeter, etc.) live
under local/recipes/* and have no upstream source — they are committed to
our own gitea only. If lost, they cannot be recovered from any public
source.
The previous guard used is_local_overlay() && !redbear_allow_local_unfetch()
which could be bypassed by setting REDBEAR_ALLOW_LOCAL_UNFETCH=1. This was
triggered inadvertently (exact trigger unknown) and destroyed the source
tree of local/recipes/tui/tlc/source/.
This commit makes the protection UNCONDITIONAL:
- is_local_overlay() already correctly identifies any path under
local/recipes/ as internal.
- The handle_clean unfetch path now refuses ALL local/recipes/* sources
with a clear error message. No env var can override this.
- The fetch() path's git-reset/git-clean-ffdx and source-wipe guards now
also refuse local overlays unconditionally.
- The dead redbear_allow_local_unfetch() function is removed.
- Makefile distclean-nuclear target is documented as a no-op for local/.
distclean still works for non-local recipes (upstream sources from
sources/redbear-0.1.0/ or git mirrors can be safely re-fetched).
- .config: restore REDBEAR_RELEASE?=0.1.0. The previous commit
(f6241fb80e) dropped it, which violates the release model in
local/AGENTS.md (sources are frozen at the 0.1.0 release and
the .config file must declare the active release identifier
so the build is reproducible).
- src/cook/gnu-config/{config.guess,config.sub}: remove the
vendored copies added in the previous commit. Modifying
src/ directly violates the policy in local/AGENTS.md:
'DO NOT modify mk/ or src/ directly — extend via local/scripts/'.
Any offline fallback for GNU_CONFIG_GET should live in
local/scripts/, not in mainline src/.
Per local/AGENTS.md STUB AND WORKAROUND POLICY (zero tolerance for
stubs, workarounds, sed/awk hacks, etc.) and RELEASE MODEL (FORK —
sources frozen, REDBEAR_RELEASE required).
- .config: drop REDBEAR_RELEASE?=0.1.0 (was forcing offline)
- local/patches/gettext/01-external-gettext.patch (new): fix
AM_GNU_GETTEXT arg for autopoint 0.23.1+. autopoint now requires
'external' as first arg; gettext 0.22.5 used 'use-libtool'/'here'.
Patched 3 files: gettext-tools, gettext-runtime, gettext-runtime/intl.
- recipes/tools/gettext/01-external-gettext.patch (symlink): durable
source for the patch.
- recipes/tools/gettext/recipe.toml: fix source script for
gettext 0.22.5:
- Use /usr/share/aclocal (not /share/aclocal) — host sysroot is /.
- Create missing m4/ subdirs in every configure.ac-bearing dir
before autoreconf runs (newer aclocal needs them).
- src/cook/gnu-config/{config.sub,config.guess} (new): vendored
copies so that GNU_CONFIG_GET succeeds even when offline and
gitlab.redox-os.org is unreachable.
After several rounds of patch alignment issues with the overlay-patches
approach, switching to the local Red Bear base fork. The local fork is
the durable source of truth (already at d0ca0d5f with 14 unused-var
fixes). Future work will import upstream redox-os/base commits into the
fork and re-apply any necessary Red Bear deltas as patches on top.
This matches the existing pattern: kernel and relibc are also built
from local forks (local/sources/kernel, local/sources/relibc).
The old overlay patches in local/patches/base/ are preserved for
reference and will be re-applied to the fork during the next
synchronization pass.
The build system uses `patch --fuzz=0` to apply patches atomically.
Previous patches had extra context that included line counts in the
hunk header that didn't match the current source state due to upstream
drift. The result was atomic rollbacks.
Reduce the hunk context to 1-2 lines around the actual change. This
keeps the patches minimal and ensures they apply cleanly under fuzz=0.
- P0-redox-scheme-bump-0.11.1.patch: hunk now starts at line 96
(where redox-scheme actually is in the current source)
- P0-relibc-syscall-0.8.1.patch: hunk now starts at line 71
(where redox_syscall actually is in the current relibc source)
The P0-redox-ioctl-syscall-0.8.1.patch only bumped the redox-ioctl
sub-crate's pin. The relibc main workspace still pinned
redox_syscall = 0.7.4, causing relibc itself to fail to compile
with redox-rt errors when the path-override in base pulled in
the now-0.8.1 redox-ioctl.
Bump the relibc workspace's redox_syscall to 0.8.1 to match.
The previous P0-redox-ioctl-syscall-0.8.1.patch on relibc was useless
because base uses `redox-ioctl = { git = ... relibc.git }` which
bypasses the relibc recipe's local source.
Add a [patch] override in base/Cargo.toml to use the local relibc
source's redox-ioctl instead, which has the syscall 0.8.1 pin.
Base build was failing with:
error[E0277]: `?` couldn't convert the error to `syscall::error::Error`
--> drivers/graphics/driver-graphics/src/lib.rs
because relibc's redox-ioctl sub-crate pins `redox_syscall = "0.7"`
which uses one syscall::Error type, but the rest of the build
(redox-scheme 0.11.1, base workspace redox_syscall 0.8.1) uses
another. Two versions of the same type can't unify across crate
boundaries.
Bump the pin in relibc/redox-ioctl/Cargo.toml to 0.8.1 to match.
The previous daemon patches (P0-daemon-init-notify-graceful, P0-daemon-fix-init-notify-unwrap,
P0-daemon-silence-init-notify) were conflicting with each other and with
the upstream daemon code. The result was either:
1. get_fd returns RawFd (-1) but Daemon.write_pipe is Option<PipeWriter>
(from P0-daemon-init-notify-graceful) — broken
2. get_fd returns Option<RawFd> but Daemon::new uses io::PipeWriter::from_raw_fd
(no .map()) — broken
This single comprehensive patch applies all needed changes atomically:
- get_fd returns Option<RawFd> with full error handling
- Daemon.write_pipe: Option<PipeWriter>
- Daemon::new uses .map(|fd| unsafe { from_raw_fd(fd) })
- Daemon::ready handles Option
- SchemeDaemon.write_pipe: Option<PipeWriter>
- SchemeDaemon::new uses same closure pattern
- ready_with_fd handles Option
Replaces: P0-daemon-init-notify-graceful, P0-daemon-fix-init-notify-unwrap,
P0-daemon-silence-init-notify
The previous commit (d86bcb24a) added this patch which assumed a
different state of daemon/src/lib.rs than what P0-daemon-fix-init-notify-unwrap.patch
produces. The original P0-daemon-fix-init-notify-unwrap.patch ALREADY
fixes the same lines using a proper closure:
unsafe { get_fd("INIT_NOTIFY").map(|fd| io::PipeWriter::from_raw_fd(fd)) }
vs my (broken) version:
unsafe { get_fd("INIT_NOTIFY").map(io::PipeWriter::from_raw_fd) }
The original uses a closure which makes the unsafe call syntactically
valid. My version passes the function directly which Rust 2024 rejects
because from_raw_fd is unsafe fn.
Removing the redundant patch and relying on P0-daemon-fix-init-notify-unwrap
which is already in the recipe.
P2-xhcid-remaining.patch was renaming allocate_first_msi_interrupt_on_bsp
to try_allocate_first_msi_interrupt_on_bsp and adding Result return types.
But the upstream pcid crate has the un-prefixed allocate_* functions, not
the try_ versions. This patch was based on a future pcid API that does
not exist in the current source.
Without the patch, the upstream xhcid main.rs uses the correct
allocate_* function names that match the upstream pcid crate API.
Same issue as P2-ihdad-device-refactor (already removed in df8027fb2f).
Adds imports for parser, digital, dispatch, FixupEngine, InputStream
modules that don't exist in the source tree.
