Red Bear OS 20d805ed37 netstack: parse_endpoint accepts bracketed IPv6
The endpoint parser previously only handled dotted IPv4 syntax
('10.0.2.15:80'). Extend it to accept the dual form that this same
change adds to relibc:

    [hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh]:port      (global)
    [hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh:hh%scope]:port (link-local w/ scope)

The presence of '[' at the start is the unambiguous discriminator: in
that case the rest up to ']' is the host and everything after is the
port. Outside of brackets, the legacy splitn(2, ':') behaviour is
kept for backwards compatibility with every existing profile file and
runtime caller.

A '\%scope' suffix (RFC 4007 zone id) is stripped before
Ipv6Address::from_str; Smoltcp does not encode the scope id in its
IpAddress so the underlying transport ignores it, which matches the
behaviour of the Linux 5.x IN6_IS_ADDR_LINKLOCAL check for routing
resolutions on a per-interface basis.

Base

Repository containing various system daemons, that are considered fundamental for the OS.

You can see what each component does in the following list:

  • audiod : Daemon used to process the sound drivers audio
  • bootstrap : First code that the kernel executes, responsible for spawning the init daemon
  • daemon : Redox daemon library
  • drivers
  • init : Daemon used to start most system components and programs
  • initfs : Filesystem with the necessary system components to run RedoxFS
  • ipcd : Daemon used for inter-process communication
  • logd : Daemon used to log system components and daemons
  • netstack : Daemon used for networking
  • ptyd : Daemon used for pseudo-terminal
  • ramfs : RAM filesystem
  • randd : Daemon used for random number generation
  • zerod : Daemon used to discard all writes and fill read buffers with zero

How To Contribute

To learn how to contribute you need to read the following document:

If you want to contribute to drivers read its README

Development

To learn how to do development with these system components inside the Redox build system you need to read the Build System and Coding and Building pages.

How To Build

It is recommended to build this system component via the Redox build system, you can learn how to do it on the Building Redox page.

To build and test outside the build system, install redoxer then use check.sh script to build or test:

  • ./check.sh - Check build for x86_64
  • ./check.sh --arch=ARCH - Check build for specific ARCH (aarch64, i586, riscv64gc)
  • ./check.sh --all - Check build for all ARCH
  • ./check.sh --test - Check the base system boots up on x86_64

You can also use make install to inspect the content on ./sysroot, or make test-gui to test booting with orbital interactively.
