vasilito 1790010483 docs: restore two wrongly-removed plans and de-dangle stale references
Round 18's N22 'stale-doc removal' deleted three docs on the stated
premise that they had 'no references anywhere in the repo'. That premise
was wrong for two of them, and SUPERSEDED-DOC-LOG.md's recorded
absorption destinations for those two do not exist:

- CUB-PACKAGE-MANAGER.md was said to be absorbed into a 'redbear-cub
  recipe README.md' and NETWORKING-IMPROVEMENT-PLAN.md section 8.2.
  Neither exists -- there is no cub README under local/recipes/system/cub,
  and that plan has no package-manager section (its 'cubic' matches are
  TCP congestion control). README.md meanwhile links the doc from its
  Documentation list and names cub in six places, so this left a headline
  component with no documentation at all.

- BLUETOOTH-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md was said to be merged into
  NETWORKING-IMPROVEMENT-PLAN.md section 3.x. That file contains three
  passing mentions of Bluetooth, not a 703-line plan. local/AGENTS.md,
  docs/README.md and docs/07 all still list it as a first-class subsystem
  plan, and AGENTS.md forbids treating Bluetooth as secondary.

Both restored from aa480f7ca3^ and their SUPERSEDED-DOC-LOG entries
retracted with the reason. USB-VALIDATION-RUNBOOK.md's supersession is
genuine -- USB-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md carries the runbook as section 6.x
test procedures -- so it stays removed and its one reference now points
there.

Also de-dangled references to docs the authorised 2026-07-27
consolidation (092d1b39c3) removed but which canonical docs still cited
as openable: the driver-manager ASSESSMENT-2026-07-22 and D5-AUDIT
evidence files and the archived migration plan, across eight documents.
They now name what they were and where the supersession is recorded.

Remaining unresolved references are upstream KWin's vendored README
pointing at upstream's own CONTRIBUTING.md, which is deliberately not
touched.

# Red Bear OS Networking Validation Log
**Status:** Staged (2026-07-27). See [HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md](./HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md)
for the live cross-component matrix and [HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md](./HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md)
for per-driver hardware availability.
## Purpose
This document is the canonical per-run log of bare-metal networking validation activities for
Red Bear OS. Each run records:
- Hardware under test (machine, NIC model, BIOS/UEFI version)
- Software versions (kernel, relibc, netstack, drivers)
- Test commands executed
- Observed results
- New regressions or fixes
## Related Documents
This log is one of three coordinated artifacts. Read them in this order:
1. [HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md](./HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md) — *what* hardware
is available for validation. Tracks test bench inventory, per-driver hardware availability,
and acquisition priority list.
2. [HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md](./HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md) — *the state* of validation
per component. Tracks QEMU / bare-metal / hardware columns and gates the production-readiness
status.
3. This document — *the per-run record* of validation activities that update the matrix.
Per the project's evidence policy (per the [NETWORKING-IMPROVEMENT-PLAN.md](./NETWORKING-IMPROVEMENT-PLAN.md)
§Validation Evidence Requirements), every "validated" claim in any plan or doc must be backed
by an entry in this log.
## Format
Each run entry should follow this structure (Markdown):
```markdown
## YYYY-MM-DD — <Test bench> — <Operator>
**Hardware:** <machine> · <NIC model> · <PCI IDs>
**Software:** Red Bear OS <branch> · kernel <hash> · relibc <hash> · netstack <hash>
**Scope:** <what was tested, e.g. "e1000d on Threadripper — IPv4 DHCP+ping">
**Commands:**
\```
<exact commands run, with exit codes>
\```
**Results:** <PASS/FAIL/PARTIAL per test case>
**Regressions:** <newly discovered issues, with file:line>
**Fixes:** <fixes applied, with commit hash>
**Updated:** <links to entries updated in HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md>
```
## Runs
*(none yet — first run is the open task for the operator)*
## Cross-References to Other Validation Artifacts
- [FIREWALL-VALIDATION-LOG.md](./FIREWALL-VALIDATION-LOG.md) — netfilter rule validation (specific
to the `netfilter:` scheme, six scenario design documented in §Scenario AF).
- [USB-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md](./USB-IMPLEMENTATION-PLAN.md) § 6.x — USB controller validation matrix and
QEMU scripts.
- [HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md](./HARDWARE-VALIDATION-MATRIX.md) — cross-component validation
status (this log updates it).
- [HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md](./HARDWARE-NETWORKING-INVENTORY.md) — hardware gate for
this log (records what can be tested).
## Open Tasks (as of 2026-07-27)
- **T-N1:** Acquire USB-C Ethernet dongle (~$15) for LG Gram bare-metal networking.
- **T-N2:** Collect Threadripper NIC inventory (`lspci -nn | grep -i ethernet`).
- **T-N3:** Acquire USB Bluetooth adapter (~$10) for LG Gram bare-metal Bluetooth.
- **T-N4:** First bare-metal networking run on Threadripper + onboard NIC.
These are the same tasks tracked in §15.4 of the [code audit](../docs/NETWORKING-AND-DRIVERS-CODE-ASSESSMENT-2026-07-27.md).
