Red Bear OS 9bbdc2cafa Merge upstream/main (59cf8189) into submodule/base
Sync the base fork with 13 upstream commits (xhci event-processing
dedup + IRQ race fix, randd permission simplification, nvmed TimeSpec
fix, /dev/ptmx, fpath legacy-path cleanup, dynamically-linked init
fix, and more). Brings process_one_event into the tree, satisfying the
verify-fork-functions gate for base.

Conflicts resolved (3 of 8 overlapping files; 5 auto-merged):

- drivers/usb/xhcid/src/xhci/irq_reactor.rs: took upstream's
  process_one_event/EventProcessResult refactor (b2ed85ea) including
  the a01d3ce6 race fix (process events between NoEvent and
  unmasking), and re-applied the Red Bear SPURIOUS_REBOOT quirk on the
  NoEvent warning (downgrade to debug when quirked).

- randd/src/main.rs: took upstream's permission-handling
  simplification (e26db606); re-applied the RB fcntl improvement
  (F_GETFL/F_GETFD/F_SETFL/F_SETFD handling, Linux random_fops xref)
  and the is_cpu_feature_detected early-return cleanup. Dropped
  test_scheme_perms (deleted by upstream's simplification).

- Makefile: kept upstream's new /dev symlink block (dev/null, ptmx,
  random, urandom, zero, tty, stdin/stdout/stderr).

Verified: cargo check clean; 57/57 tests pass (xhcid 35, usbhubd 14,
xhci trb 8); verify-fork-functions.sh --no-fetch base reports all
upstream functions present.

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.
