Phase C: distributed messaging capsule + idle-loop pump
Extract the messaging vocabulary (arenas, MSG-*/CH-*/MBR-* words) out of capsules/hermes/init.4th into a new shared capsules/common/messaging.4th that Hermes and Artemis each load at birth, giving every VM its own private MSG-ARENA/CH-ARENA instead of only Hermes having one. Hermes stays the owner of the one real, canonical COMMON-CH; Artemis subscribes into it via VM-EXEC at her own birth, and Hermes proactively subscribes Hera (idx 0) since Hera always exists first. Hera does NOT get her own copy: register_child_vm_words()'s own doc comment explains why the STADIUM-* primitives common:messaging.4th depends on are deliberately never registered in her dictionary (keeps her dict_hash off item 4.1's baseline). Confirmed live by loading it into her dictionary anyway first -- every colon-definition referencing an unregistered Stadium primitive was silently dropped (MSG-HEAT@/!, CH-HEAT@/!, MSG-COOL-ALL, MSG-TICK all missing after boot). Reverted that path; she orchestrates via BIRTH/VM-EXEC/VM-CALL instead. Added capsule_vm_registry_get_by_index() (capsule_birth.c/.h) for registry enumeration by birth-order position, and a pump in repl.c's existing idle hook that walks every live VM once per idle beat and VM-EXECs MSG-TICK into each one except Hera's own entry. Verified clean (no UNKNOWN WORD / VM-EXEC errors after birth) on all three architectures.

Implement CERTVERIFY -- real DER cert verification, tested against OpenSSL
Phase B of the identity pipeline (FABRIC-3.md §F.7/§F.17): - x509_ed25519.c/.h: two new DER walkers alongside the existing pubkey extractor -- x509_verify_signature() (verifies a cert's outer Ed25519 signature over the raw, exactly-as-encoded tbsCertificate bytes, real signature verification against issuer_pubkey, rejects non-Ed25519 signatureAlgorithm) and x509_extract_serial() (extracts the serialNumber INTEGER, stripping a DER padding byte if present, for the drive_uuid binding decided in §F.7). - vm_identity.c: vm_identity_from_cert(), ties the three DER primitives together into the actual CERTVERIFY check -- signature verifies against issuer_pubkey, serialNumber matches this drive's own drive_uuid, subject pubkey extracts cleanly -- and populates a VMIdentity on success. acl_caps is caller-supplied, not read from the cert (nothing in the decided cert fields encodes capabilities); deciding what a verified identity is allowed to do is policy for the caller (WIREBIND, not yet built), not this function's job. Verified two ways: a standalone host-side test harness (not part of the kernel build) links the real source files against a real openssl- generated Ed25519 X.509 cert -- extracted pubkey, extracted serial, and signature verification all match ground truth, plus two negative tests (wrong issuer pubkey, corrupted signature) both correctly rejected. Then the actual kernel build verified live on all three architectures: clean compile, clean boot to ok>, Hermes/Artemis both live with no KILL. Same pre-existing, unrelated Zuse fence-write anomaly observed on all three (not caused by this change, not chased here).

Add VMIdentity type, relocate homeblocks_sig_t off devblock 0
Phase A of the identity pipeline (FABRIC-3.md §F.2/§F.16, §F.13):
- New include/starkernel/vm_identity.h: VMIdentity{owner_pubkey[32],
installed, acl_caps}, its own header per the project's "give real-shaped
data its own header" convention (VMUuid's own precedent), embedded by
value on struct VM. acl_caps is an independent capability bitmask, not
an ordered privilege tier (decided 2026-08-28) -- Zuse isn't a
structurally special VM, her identity just has every bit set
(VM_IDENTITY_CAP_ALL). No individual capability bits assigned yet,
deliberate slack matching blk_meta_t's own acl_reserved precedent --
real bits get names once the operation they gate (BINDSTEP, MINT, ...)
actually gets built.
- Applied the devblock-1 relocation decided in §F.13: new
HOMEBLOCKS_SIG_START_FBLOCK constant (homeblocks_sig.h), repl.c's
homeblocks_sig_check() call site updated from the literal 0. Also
applied the still-owed blockmap_offset/blockmap_devblocks ->
identity_src_offset/identity_src_devblocks rename decided in §F.6 (no
other code referenced the old names). Updated the header's own stale
GPT-relative doc comments to match -- GPT was dropped permanently, this
location is final, not an interim stand-in.
Verified live on all three architectures: clean compile, clean boot to
ok>, Hermes/Artemis both confirmed live with no KILL (no regression from
last session's session-less fix). One pre-existing, unrelated anomaly
observed consistently on all three arches, not caused by this change (no
code touched here intersects Zuse's own fence-write path): "Zuse: minted
but fence write FAILED (not persistent)" -- flagged for its own
investigation, not chased here.

Make Hermes and Artemis session-less fleet foundation, add STARTUP-BANNER
Per FABRIC-3.md D.7 (birth-by-message-only): the Tripod legs must be alive session-less before any thumbdrive-attach flow has a running Hermes/Artemis to message. kernel_main.c's item 4.2/4.6 self-tests previously birthed both, exercised diagnostics, then explicitly KILLed them before ok> every boot -- production boot never actually kept either alive. Stripped both blocks down to birth-only, diagnostics and KILL removed. Found and fixed a real regression this surfaced, not left broken: Hermes's CD-INIT (message/channel arena init, and the thing that loads lib.4th into her own dictionary) was only ever invoked by the self-test just removed -- nothing in hermes/init.4th itself called it. Added an unconditional CD-INIT call at the end of her own init.4th so a real birth actually initializes her arena, matching how Artemis's own ART-BOOT-ENTRY already runs unconditionally at her own capsule load. Added STARTUP-BANNER (lib.4th): a shared word reading a common IDENTITY-BANNER buffer, printing "(no identity)" until CERTVERIFY/MINT exist to populate it from a thumbdrive's PKI fields -- scaffolding only, per direct instruction. Wired into each Tripod leg's own init.4th (Hera/Hermes/Artemis); Artemis didn't load lib.4th before, added that too. Verified live on all three architectures: BIRTH for both, no KILL anywhere in any log, and an interactive USE round-trip confirmed Hermes is genuinely reachable post-boot, not just logged as born.

Implement SCSI WRITE(10), closing the graph's highest-leverage blocker
Direct mirror of the existing READ(10) implementation (FABRIC-3.md §F.1), data direction flipped: new XHCI_XFER_BOT_DATA_OUT/XHCI_NEXT_ACTION_BOT_DATA_OUT states, xhci_bot_send_write10()/xhci_bot_write_block()/xhci_bot_write_data_out() in xhci.c, new SCSI_CMD_WRITE10 opcode and BOT_CMD_WRITE10/BOT_TUR_CHAIN_WRITE10 enum values. usb_blk_write() in blkio_usb.c is real now, no longer the BLKIO_ENOSUP stub. read_only flips to 0 in blkio_info() now that it's proven. Verified live end-to-end on all three architectures with a genuine cold-reboot round-trip (not just a same-session read): BLK-CONFIRM-FORMAT's BAM/reloc writes and an explicit block content write both completed via clean WRITE10 cycles (CSW PASS), and the written byte read back correctly after a full kernel rebuild + fresh boot -- amd64=65, aarch64=170, riscv64=201, each at LBN 32734 on a disposable usbwrite-test.img attached via QEMU usb-storage. Added Makefile.starkernel's QEMU_EXTRA (empty by default, no behavior change) to attach the disposable test image for this validation; the drive must be hotplugged via QMP after boot reaches ok>, not attached at QEMU launch -- attaching before xhci_bringup()'s controller reset means no fresh Port Status Change event fires (see project_xhci_milestone_2d_polling memory). Found and reported, not fixed, during testing: EMPTY-BUFFERS (empty_all_buffers(), block_words.c) does not implement standard Forth-79 semantics -- it force-writes zero to every block on every attached device instead of discarding cache assignments. This corrupted disk/artemis.img during an earlier test run; restored from git, confirmed byte-identical. Avoided in the final validation runs (detach/reattach used instead to force a fresh read).

Milestone 6: hard-refuse flip, scoped to INVALID only -- closes Milestone 6
Before flipping, found CAPSULE_SIG_MISSING (no signature at all) is the normal state everywhere except this machine -- CI and any other checkout have no access to the offline key, by design. Refusing on MISSING the same as INVALID would brick boot everywhere but here. Decided (on request): enforce ONLY on CAPSULE_SIG_INVALID (a signature that IS present but doesn't verify -- unambiguous tampering/corruption evidence). MISSING/NO_ROOT_KEY stay WARN-only permanently. All three capsule_birth.c call sites now return CAPSULE_RUN_ERR_INVALID on CAPSULE_SIG_INVALID, after logging the same WARN as before. Verified on all three architectures, both directions, per the original rollout commitment: positive case (real signed capsules) reboots clean with zero warnings on amd64/aarch64/riscv64. Negative case (same one-byte signature corruption used for the WARN-only proof, on Mama's own init.4th) now genuinely refuses identically on all three: "capsule sig: init.4th: INVALID" then "Init: Mama birth FAILED". The feared "no ok> at all" blast radius didn't materialize -- kernel_main.c already had graceful error handling for a failed Mama birth (log and continue, pre-existing code); the kernel reaches a degraded ok> rather than crashing, on all three architectures. Final acceptance pass (real signed capsules, tampering reverted) clean on all three. Milestone 6 is now fully closed except magic-number content-type detection (shared with Milestone 4, separate scope, not started). Documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Milestone 6: BLOCK_MAP.md signature-status column
--manifest mode's file scan is a completely separate code path from build mode (only ever walks .4th files, never the embedded PKI cert or font capsule) -- extended it to accept the same optional --sign-key <path> prefix build mode already has, factoring the key-loading code into a shared load_sign_key(), so the manifest can report real per-capsule signing status without touching or requiring a rebuild of capsule_generated.c. New "Signed" column on the capsule summary table: yes/no when --sign-key was given, n/a (with an explanatory footnote) when it wasn't -- never a bare blank that could be misread as "unsigned". Makefile.starkernel's manifest-generation call site now passes the same SIGN_KEY_ARGS the real build uses, so capsules/BLOCK_MAP.md reflects this machine's actual signed state by default. Verified: clean compile, BLOCK_MAP.md correctly shows "yes" for all 31 tracked capsules on a real signed build; a quick amd64 boot (no kernel code touched, host tooling only) confirmed no regression. This closes every open Milestone 6 item except magic-number content-type detection (shared with Milestone 4, not started) and the hard-refuse flip (deliberately deferred). Documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Milestone 6: mkcapsule signing + capsule_birth.c wiring, WARN-only
First attempt shelled out to `openssl pkeyutl -sign` (fork/execlp, not system() -- avoided shell string interpolation of the key path). Corrected on request: no new external host binary dependency when the repo's own code can do the job -- same standing preference as the earlier anti-file correction. Rewritten to link ed25519_sign() (already verified against OpenSSL in Phase B) directly into mkcapsule. New tools/pkcs8_ed25519.c: a narrow DER walker (same shape as x509_ed25519.c, deliberately not shared -- small enough that duplicating a few TLV-walking lines beat threading a header between the kernel crypto tree and host tooling) extracting the raw seed from the intermediate's PKCS#8 private key, plus a minimal self-written base64 decoder (PEM is openssl genpkey's default output; no decoder existed anywhere in the repo). Verified end-to-end before wiring anything in: the extracted seed's derived pubkey matches the cert's exactly, and a full self-contained sign+verify round-trip (zero openssl) passes. CapsuleDesc had no spare bytes, so signatures live in a new parallel CapsuleSigEntry array, emitted by a new `mkcapsule --sign-key <path>` flag (omitted/missing key -> has_sig=0 everywhere, graceful, not a build failure -- CI has no access to the offline key). New capsule_sig.c/.h: capsule_verify_signature(), a separate function, not folded into the already-tested capsule_validate(). Finds and caches the embedded intermediate cert's pubkey once per boot, then verifies against it. Wired into all three capsule_validate() call sites in capsule_birth.c via log_message(LOG_WARN, ...) -- never refuses yet, per the earlier staged-rollout decision. Verified independently, both directions, live in the real kernel: a full clean build (38 signed capsules) boots clean on all three architectures with zero warnings. Separately, hand-corrupted one byte of Mama's own init.4th capsule's stored signature (not its payload/hash, which capsule_validate() already catches and would have masked the test) and rebuilt just the changed object: produced exactly "capsule sig: init.4th: INVALID -- signature does not verify" on boot, and the kernel still reached ok> -- proving warn-only doesn't refuse anything yet. Reverted before the final, untampered 3-arch acceptance pass. Still open: flipping WARN to hard-refuse (separate, deliberate step) and the BLOCK_MAP.md signature-status column.

Phase 8 C (5/n): Zuse's cert wired to the fence -- first-boot mint works
Replaces the crashed NVRAM approach entirely. New include/starkernel/zuse_cert_devblock.h: a standalone on-disk record (magic + version + 32-byte seed + 32-byte pubkey + a real CRC-64/ISO from day one, same discipline homeblocks_sig_t established) occupying devblock_from_top=0 of the fence. Its own header, not inlined at the boot call site, since the still-open MINT word will be a second consumer of this exact format. kernel_main.c's mint-or-load logic now reads the fence, installs an existing valid cert, or mints fresh via virtio_rng+ed25519_keygen and writes it. Runs right after virtio_rng_init(), before capsule_birth_mama() -- unlike the crashed NVRAM attempt, raw block I/O against Artemis's already-proven device has no boot-timing risk, so the earlier "re-invoke ACL-ZUSE-BOOT after Mama birth" workaround is gone; ACL.4th's self-activating ACL-ZUSE-BOOT sees a correct cert on its one ordinary pass. Verified independently across every real scenario, never trusting the kernel's own report: fresh mint decodes correctly on disk with a CRC confirmed by a from-scratch Python re-implementation of the algorithm; a reboot without reformatting loads back byte-for-byte identical seed/pubkey (genuinely "mint once, ever"); a pre-fence volume refuses cleanly (no crash, no silent data loss, honest "not persistent" reporting); the real, untouched disk/artemis.img exercises the same graceful-refusal path identically on all three architectures. Phase 8's core arc is now functionally complete: real entropy -> real signing -> real anti-file block-native persistence -> a first-boot mint that survives reboots. Still open: the ongoing MINT word for minting additional regular users. Documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8 C (4/n): metadata fence allocator integration + zone I/O
Corrected meta_fence_blocks units from "Forth 1 KiB blocks" to 4 KiB devblocks (matching bam_devblocks/reloc_devblocks) before anything depended on the original meaning -- a clean fix, not a migration. This let the fence fold directly into compute_totals_from_B()'s existing payload4k formula (total_devblocks - 1 - B - R - F) instead of a separate user_blocks subtraction: total_blocks/user_blocks/free_blocks all shrink correctly for free, in both the fresh-format and reload paths, from one formula change. New blk_meta_zone_read()/blk_meta_zone_write() -- raw, unpacked 4 KiB devblock I/O, same shape as the header/BAM/reloc-table regions, addressed by devblock_from_top counting down from the device's last physical devblock. Refuses rather than clamps if the index exceeds the on-disk meta_fence_blocks. C-only, no FORTH word wraps either -- same discipline as vm_zuse_cert_install(), which will be this zone's first real tenant. Verified independently at every step, never trusting the kernel's own report: capacity math cross-checked against a from-scratch Python recomputation of the same formula (exact match); accessor correctness via a temporary probe (written/run/captured/reverted) that wrote a known pattern and read it back, then independently confirmed via a raw read of the disk image at the exact expected physical byte offset. Full 3-arch acceptance boot against the real, untouched disk/artemis.img, probe code fully reverted -- clean, conservation intact. Still open: wiring vm_zuse_cert_install() to actually persist through these accessors, and the MINT word itself. Documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8 C (3/n): top-of-device metadata fence, step 1 (field round-trip)
Corrected substrate: this OS is anti-POSIX, anti-file by design -- the prior "dedicated system-identity disk" framing was wrong vocabulary, caught before any code was written (saved as feedback_no_files_anti_posix.md). The real primitives are content-addressed capsules and raw LBN blocks, never a filesystem. Design (agreed on request): a growable metadata fence at the TOP of a device's block space, mirroring block_subsystem.c's existing bottom BAM reservation from the opposite end -- the two grow toward each other, never colliding, same shape as a stack/heap. Starts at BLK_META_FENCE_INIT (128 blocks), explicitly never RAM-backed. Reuses Artemis's already-attached, already-proven virtio-blk device -- no new device. Rejected reusing BAM's own reserved zone directly: those blocks are fully claimed by BAM bookkeeping, not free space. Step 1 only: new meta_fence_blocks field in blk_volume_meta_t, appended after reloc_devblocks and carved from _pad[] -- identical graceful- default technique reloc_devblocks already established (a pre-existing volume reads it back as 0, not a format break). Added a compile-time _Static_assert on the struct's total size, same discipline homeblocks_sig.h uses -- caught a real bug immediately: the hand-summed _pad[] formula was off by 4 bytes (a compiler alignment gap the manual count missed), found via offsetof() rather than re-deriving by hand. Worked against disposable clones throughout, never the real disk/artemis.img (ARTDISK is ?=-overridable) -- artemis-metafence-fresh.img (blank, fresh-format path) and artemis-metafence-test.img (copy of the pre-existing artemis.img, graceful-default-on-reload path), kept as regression fixtures matching disk/README.md's existing convention. Verified independently via direct byte reads of the disk image, not the kernel's own log output (log_message(LOG_INFO,...) doesn't reach serial in this build -- unrelated pre-existing gap): fresh format writes 128 at header offset 184, a reboot without reformatting preserves it, the old pre-fence image reads back 0. Full 3-arch acceptance boot against the real, untouched disk/artemis.img also clean. Allocator (user_blocks math) and zone read/write accessors both still open -- next steps, documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8 C (2/n): expand cert storage; NVRAM persistence crashed, reverted
Cert storage expanded from the old 16-byte placeholder to a real 32-byte seed + 32-byte pubkey. vm_zuse_cert_install() now has a kernel-side duplicate in src/starkernel/vm/vm_core.c -- the kernel build's VM_EXCLUDE list drops src/vm.c entirely (same reason vm_set_base() already has two independent copies), so the hosted-only version added earlier this session was never actually linked into the kernel. FORTH-side ZUSE-CERT-LO@/HI@ replaced with ZUSE-PUBKEY@ (i -- u) over the public half only; ACL-ZUSE-BOOT now checks ZUSE-CERT-INSTALLED? before authenticating instead of unconditionally. Attempted NVRAM-based persistence (GetVariable/SetVariable) for the first-boot mint flow: page-faulted inside OVMF's variable service (CR2 in the flash MMIO window). Moving the call site to match the one proven-safe existing SetVariable call site in this codebase produced the identical crash -- not a timing issue. Localized with debug markers (one boot): GetVariable works; SetVariable with real data never returns. The existing "working" precedent call is actually a delete-of-nonexistent-variable (size=0, data=NULL), a cheaper path that never touches flash, so it proved nothing about real writes. Root cause: this kernel's VMM never maps the region OVMF's variable service needs for real flash writes -- a genuine gap in UEFI runtime- services support, not Zuse-specific, and not obviously fixable in a 3-arch-uniform way (flash window location is firmware/arch-specific). Independently, storing the raw seed in RUNTIME_ACCESS NVRAM would have been a real security defect regardless of the crash -- readable by any later-loaded UEFI app or the booted OS. Reverted to a known-safe state: all NVRAM/mint code removed from kernel_main.c, init.4th's ACL.4th line back to its documented commented-out default. Verified clean compile and clean boot on all three architectures. Cert storage expansion (the part that works) stays. A dedicated system-identity disk (virtio-blk, already proven for writes via Artemis) is the recommended next substrate -- not yet decided or built. Full investigation documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8 C (1/n): QEMU harness now preserves NVRAM across runs
Scoping Phase C (the MINT word) surfaced a real blocker: "mint one Zuse, ever" needs the cert to survive reboots, but the qemu target copied a fresh, pristine OVMF_VARS.fd on every invocation -- a UEFI-NVRAM-based cert would never persist under this project's own normal test workflow. Digging further, aarch64 had no persistent NVRAM store at all (single -bios arg, no split VARS pflash like amd64/riscv64). Fixed rather than switching storage substrates: amd64/riscv64 now only copy the VARS template if the destination doesn't already exist, so `clean` (which deletes the whole build tree) is the bleach step and a bare `make qemu` preserves NVRAM -- matching the existing "always clean before qemu" acceptance convention exactly. aarch64 restructured to split CODE(ro)/VARS(rw) pflash drives matching the other two, with a graceful fallback to the old -bios mode on hosts without split firmware. Also resolves two design questions before any cert code: Zuse doesn't need Milestone 6's CA (that's the capsule-signing chain, a separate trust domain -- Zuse is a self-sovereign instance-local root of trust), and flags that this session's own earlier vm_zuse_cert_install() storage (16 bytes) is too small for a real Ed25519 keypair. Verified: all three architectures boot clean to ok> with the new pflash arrangement, Stadium conservation intact, no panics or guest errors. Infrastructure-only -- no cert code yet.

Phase 8 B: real Ed25519 keygen/signing, verified against OpenSSL
Extends the previously verify-only ed25519.c with ed25519_keygen() and ed25519_sign() per RFC 8032 5.1.5/5.1.6, reusing every point-arithmetic primitive verify already had -- only seed expansion/clamping and per-message nonce derivation are new. Signing is deterministic; only keygen ever touches entropy, via a caller-supplied seed (virtio_rng, Phase A) -- keygen still generates nothing itself. New scalar_muladd() (scalar25519.c) for signing's S = (k*a + r) mod L, the one scalar op verify never needed. Schoolbook multiply into a u128 wide accumulator with one final carry pass -- deliberately the same shape as fe25519.c's existing multiply, which has a documented history of a real bug from carrying mid-accumulation instead of in one pass. Verified against an independent implementation, not self-consistency: a throwaway host harness against Python's cryptography library (OpenSSL- backed) across 6 trials (5 random seed/message pairs + the empty-message case) produced byte-for-byte identical pubkeys and signatures every time. Clean compile on all three architectures and a full 3-arch QEMU acceptance boot, conservation intact, no panics or guest errors. Nothing calls the new functions from the live kernel path yet -- that's Phase C (the MINT word itself), still open, documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8 A: virtio-rng entropy source for real Ed25519 signing
The kernel's ed25519_verify() is deliberately verify-only -- no signing, no keygen, no entropy source. That conflicts with the on-device MINT word vision (Zuse signing new user certs live at runtime), so this reopens that constraint on request rather than reshaping MINT around verify-only. vm_uuid.h already found the real gap: amd64 has RDRAND, riscv64 has Zkr, but QEMU's aarch64 CPU models have neither -- confirmed against QEMU 10.2.1. A deterministic PRNG (fine for VM UUIDs) is not safe for key generation, so this adds a virtio-rng device instead of a per-arch split: real host entropy, identical guest-side protocol on all three arches. New src/starkernel/virtio/virtio_rng.c + include/starkernel/virtio_rng.h, transport plumbing mirroring the existing virtio_blk.c driver exactly. Wired into kernel_main.c boot, -device virtio-rng-pci added to all three QEMU targets. Verified live (temp probe, written/run/captured/reverted): 16 real bytes pulled through the full request/notify/poll round trip on all three arches, three different values confirming real entropy. Final boot against the reverted, permanent code: clean compile, clean boot to ok> on amd64/aarch64/riscv64, Stadium conservation intact, no panics or guest errors. Ed25519 keygen/signing itself (Phase B) and the MINT word design (Phase C) remain open, documented in FABRIC-3.md.

Phase 8: zuse cert storage moved out of the dictionary (fuse-blow install)
Found that a pinned CONSTANT is not actually tamper-proof: ACL-PIN only blocks redefinition, not a >BODY-then-store on the word's existing data field. Moves the Zuse cert value into C-only VM struct fields (zuse_cert_lo/hi + zuse_cert_installed fuse bit) with a one-time vm_zuse_cert_install() and read-only ZUSE-CERT-LO@/HI@/INSTALLED? FORTH accessors, closing the tamper path structurally instead of by convention. Deletes the now-insecure ZUSE-CERT-LO/HI CONSTANT words from zuse.4th. vm_zuse_cert_install() has no caller yet -- the real mint flow (Milestone 6 CA, the MINT word) is still open; this is storage + accessors only, not a stand-in mint. Documented in FABRIC-3.md. Verified: hosted build clean, mkcapsule --lint clean (31/31), clean boot to ok> on amd64/aarch64/riscv64 with Stadium conservation intact and no panics.

Wire homeblocks_sig_check() into USB attach: the warn half (Phase 8)
Wired into sk_repl_idle()'s USB hotplug attach handler, right between blkio_usb_open_msc() succeeding and blk_subsys_attach_device() -- logs a distinct message per outcome (recognized / blank-or-foreign / bad-version / bad-crc / read-error). The "refuse" half is deliberately not implemented -- there is nothing real to gate yet. blkio_usb.c has no SCSI WRITE(10) support at all, so there is no write path today to refuse; attach currently only enables read-only access, which is also the general-purpose USB block I/O path this repo already relies on for unrelated testing, not exclusively a home-blocks identity workflow. Refusing attach on blank media would break that legitimate use without protecting anything real -- same "don't build ahead of a real caller" reasoning EXPIRE's deferral used. Refuse belongs on the write path once WRITE(10) exists. sig_start_fblock is hardcoded to 0 at the call site -- correct for today's unpartitioned raw test/real media (no GPT parser exists yet), flagged in the comment as the one place that changes once a real GPT-partition-relative lookup exists, isolated from homeblocks_sig.c's own location-agnostic check logic. Verified live: hot-attached disk/usb-thumbdrive-test.img (blank media) through a running amd64 instance's QMP socket (blockdev-add + device_add usb-storage) -- captured exactly 4 real TUR+READ10 BOT cycles (matching the header's 4 forth-block span) followed by the correct "not recognized" warning, then normal attach completing successfully afterward (no regression). Conservation intact, no panic. Clean zero-warning compile and clean boot on all three architectures.

Implement homeblocks_sig_check(): the drive signature check (Phase 8)
Real, complete verification logic -- not yet wired to any write path. homeblocks_sig_check(dev, sig_start_fblock, out_sig) reads the 4 consecutive 1KB blkio forth-blocks the 4KB header spans, verifies magic -> version -> CRC-64 in order, returns HOMEBLOCKS_SIG_OK/_BLANK/ _BAD_VERSION/_BAD_CRC/_READ_ERROR. Reuses block_subsystem.c's existing CRC-64/ISO (compute_crc64, previously static/file-local, now exposed via block_subsystem.h) rather than a second CRC implementation -- same algorithm already proven via per-block checksums. Takes the header's starting block as a plain parameter rather than resolving it internally: verifies a signature given a location, finding that location (GPT-partition-relative) stays the caller's job. Verified against the actual shipped code, not a reimplementation: a standalone host test links the real homeblocks_sig.c against a fake in-memory blkio_dev and exercises all four outcomes -- blank media, a correctly-minted header (round-trips drive_uuid/minted_time_ns), a flipped CRC, an unrecognized version. All four pass. A full QEMU-hotplug live test isn't proportionate yet since nothing calls this function from the live kernel path -- wiring it into the attach path is the next punch-list item. Clean zero-warning compile and clean boot on all three architectures confirms no build/link regression from exposing compute_crc64 and adding the new source file to every kernel build.

Fix COOL's misleading (stub) label too
Same fix as DELIVER, on request. COOL is real and live for both words (item 4.1) and VMs (this session) -- stadium_evict()'s own universal reservoir credit is the whole of what "cooling off the floor" means for both, no extra payload action needed. stadium_dispatch()'s COOL case now prints the departing patron's identity (word_id for a word, 0 -- the patron-zero convention -- for a VM) instead of "(stub)". Verified live: both shapes fired correctly on the same boot -- "COOL identity=0" at Hermes's/Artemis's own explicit channel-eviction self-test and again at their VM-patron eviction at PARITY:KILL, "COOL identity=1" at a second channel eviction -- conservation intact throughout. Clean zero-warning compile and clean boot with conservation intact on all three architectures.

Fix DELIVER's misleading (stub) label -- it was never actually a gap
Re-scoped on request. capsules/hermes/init.4th's MSG-ALLOC already
admits every message onto Stadium with SB-DELIVER, and MSG-FREE-NODE
(called from both MSG-ACK-LAST and heat-driven MSG-REAP) already
evicts it -- "behaviour=DELIVER (stub)" has been printing on boot logs
since at least 2026-08-05. The earlier "zero consumer, needs
substantial Hermes lifecycle mapping work" framing was wrong,
carried over unverified from FABRIC.md's old "open, not resolved" note
about which Hermes event maps to DELIVER vs. EXPIRE -- item 4.2
already answered that in code without the prose catching up. Same
documentation-drift class as the stale ONTOLOGY.md words note and the
earlier glibc misattribution.
Checked whether the dispatch body needed a real payload action the way
MIGRATE did: MSG-DELIVER (the FORTH word) already runs the actual
delivery (VM-EXEC of the payload) before eviction, decoupled from
Stadium reap -- so by dispatch time delivery is already done, same
shape as COOL, which needs no extra action beyond stadium_evict()'s
own universal reservoir credit.
Fix: stadium_dispatch()'s DELIVER case now prints the departing
message's real identity (DELIVER msg_idx=N, same shape as MIGRATE's
lbn= print) instead of a misleading (stub) label. COOL is in the
identical situation (real for both words and VMs) but left as-is --
out of scope for this pass, noted in stadium.c's own comment.
Also confirmed EXPIRE (ACL) is genuinely unscoped, not stale docs like
DELIVER turned out to be -- zero Stadium involvement anywhere in
ACL.4th/acl_recheck()/the ACL design doc. Stays open pending real
design decisions.
Verified live via a forced MSG-SEND/MSG-DELIVER-ALL/MSG-ACK-LAST
sequence from Hermes's own REPL context ("USE" now works after the
previous fix): "Stadium: dispatch cell=73653 behaviour=DELIVER
msg_idx=1". Clean zero-warning compile and clean boot with
conservation intact on all three architectures.

Stadium: real VM-patron admission + real COOL dispatch at KILL (FABRIC-3.md §B)
capsule_vm_kill() had zero Stadium involvement (vm_cleanup()/sf_free() only), and child-VM birth only ever called stadium_grant_quota() -- a resource pool for the VM's own future word/block patrons, never stadium_admit() for the VM itself. stadium_birth_hera() looked like a precedent but admits Hera into her own quota as a permanently pinned cell 0, which can never reach stadium_evict() -- not a working example of COOL firing for a VM. Adds size_t stadium_patron_cell to VMRegistryEntry. At birth, right after the existing stadium_grant_quota() call, admits a candidate into the new VM's own quota mirroring stadium_birth_hera()'s shape (identity=0, mass=1, behaviour=COOL) but deliberately unpinned -- pinning would need a new "unpin" primitive (none exists) to ever evict it later, and unpinned costs nothing since nothing wires COOL's dispatch body to kill anything; the worst case of an unrelated natural eviction is stale bookkeeping, tolerated the same way stadium_word_forget() already tolerates staleness elsewhere. At capsule_vm_kill() and capsule_vm_kill_all_nonmama(): stadium_evict() the tracked cell if still resident, silently tolerating refusal (already gone). stadium_dispatch()'s COOL case needed no new payload body -- same as it already is for words, where COOL has no defined extra action beyond stadium_evict()'s own universal reservoir credit. On investigation this turned out not to be entangled with the still-iterating Tripod/Zuse/messaging vision after all -- birth and kill already funnel through two single choke points, so the earlier deferral (previous commit) was overcautious. Verified live: a second, new "Stadium: dispatch cell=... behaviour= COOL" now fires immediately before every PARITY:KILL line, for both Hermes and Artemis, distinct from the pre-existing COMMON-CH word-eviction self-test's own COOL print. Conservation (resident_sum + reservoir == Q48_ONE) intact throughout. Clean zero-warning compile and clean boot on all three architectures.

Fix USE/RUN dictionary shadowing: remove dead lib.4th aliases
capsules/lib.4th:13-14 defined ": USE ( addr u -- ) EXEC ;" and the same for RUN, shadowing the C-registered mama_word_use()/RUN primitives (CLAUDE.md names both, with BIRTH, as untouchable C primitives) with an unrelated "load/exec a capsule" meaning. This broke the interactive USE-based VM-redirect (S" Artemis" USE printed "EXEC: failed: Artemis" instead of redirecting), discovered while chasing FABRIC-3.md's live-MIGRATE verification. Traced every real caller before touching anything: RUN's alias was dead code, never called anywhere as bare RUN. USE's alias had exactly one real caller -- capsules/hermes/init.4th:397, intentionally exploiting the shadow to load common:msg.4th right after lib.4th itself loaded. Both aliases were pure EXEC wrappers with zero added behavior, so this deletes both definitions outright and switches the one real call site (plus its matching doc comment in capsules/common/msg.4th) to call EXEC directly. No new names invented, the C primitives untouched. Verified live: Hermes still births and her COMMON-CH-eviction self-test (depends on common:msg.4th having loaded) still passes; interactively, S" Artemis" USE now correctly redirects the REPL and prints "USE: now using Artemis". mkcapsule --lint clean (31/31). Clean compile and clean boot with Stadium conservation intact (resident_sum + reservoir == Q48_ONE) on all three architectures.

Stadium: real block-patron admission + MIGRATE dispatch (FABRIC-3.md §B)
stadium_admit()'s mass==1 refusal looked like a hard blocker for 1024-byte blocks, but stadium_word_dispatch()'s real candidate construction proves Stadium cells carry pure identity/heat/bookkeeping, never the resident's actual content -- a block patron follows the same shape (identity=LBN, payload unused), so this was real, scoped work, not a case for stubbing. New stadium_blocks.h/.c mirror stadium_words.c's admission/cooling shape, keyed by (quota_slot, lbn) in a fixed-capacity open-addressing hash table (tombstone deletion) instead of a dense array, since LBN space isn't densely bounded like word_id. Wired into block_word_block()/buffer()/ update() (block_words.c), __STARKERNEL__-guarded. stadium_dispatch()'s MIGRATE case now calls blk_flush(lbn) for real instead of printing "(stub)". Three new Kconfig constants (STADIUM_BLOCK_HEAT_QUANTUM/ STADIUM_BLOCK_COOL_RATE_Q48/STADIUM_BLOCK_TRACK_CAP_MULT) mirror the word-patron ones, same three-layer wiring. VM-COOL/DELIVER/EXPIRE stay explicit punch-list items -- VM-COOL deferred pending the still-iterating Tripod/Zuse/messaging vision, DELIVER/EXPIRE are their own future subsystem integrations per FABRIC.md's own "open, not resolved" notes. Verified clean compile (zero warnings) and clean boot to REPL with conservation intact (resident_sum + reservoir == Q48_ONE) on all three architectures (amd64/aarch64/riscv64); BLOCK/BUFFER touches exercised live from the REPL with no crash; a 22,000-distinct-block flood loop against an artificially shrunk Stadium ran clean under heavy admission load. A live MIGRATE console fire was not directly observed this session (root-caused to a pre-existing reservoir-floor/density-eviction interaction unrelated to this change, documented in FABRIC-3.md) -- flagged as an honest follow-up, not silently claimed.

Single-block relocation: RELOCATE-BLOCK, resolve_lbn(), persisted exception table
Implements the full design from the prior commit in one pass. resolve_lbn()
is the single choke point threaded through the ten public LBN-consuming
entry points (blk_get_buffer, blk_update, blk_flush, blk_is_allocated,
blk_mark_allocated, blk_mark_free, blk_is_valid, blk_get_meta, blk_set_meta,
plus blk_get_empty_buffer covered via delegation) -- an LBN->LBN redirect,
not a new storage allocator, since the LBN space is already unified across
every attached blkio_dev backend. VM window cache staleness across a
relocation reuses the existing blk_vm_check_epoch() mechanism from
Milestone 2h's hot-detach fix for free -- g.epoch bumps on relocation too.
Persistence lands in the same pass: two new uint32_t fields
(reloc_start/reloc_devblocks) appended after hdr_crc in blk_volume_meta_t,
carved from existing padding without moving any earlier field's byte
offset -- an old formatted volume's zeroed padding reads back as
reloc_devblocks=0 ("no reloc capacity"), gracefully, not a format-breaking
change. compute_totals_from_B() generalized to account for the new
reserved region. reloc_flush_to_disk()/reloc_load_from_disk() mirror the
BAM I/O functions' own absolute-devblock-addressing shape; the persisted
copy's owner is first_disk_slot() (already existed, already used for this
exact "which device is canonical" question by blk_get_volume_meta()).
blk_subsys_relocate_block() is a mechanical primitive only -- copies
content (staged through a local buffer, since obtaining the target's
blk_get_buffer() result can evict and invalidate the source's cache
pointer if they share a device), frees the source BAM entry, appends the
exception entry, bumps the epoch, flushes to disk. RELOCATE-BLOCK exposes
it to FORTH, no policy of its own (ACL's job, per this session's direction).
A first live-test attempt gave a false negative against disk/artemis.img
(predates reloc capacity, so relocation only ever existed in memory that
boot) -- traced to the test's own setup before being mistaken for a bug,
then re-verified correctly against a fresh volume (new fixture,
disk/artemis-reloc-test.img): relocated a RAMDRIVE block to the fresh
disk, confirmed live resolution through the redirect, then confirmed both
the redirect and the relocated content survived an abrupt QEMU kill and
full reboot. Also fixed three lingering "glibc" doc-comment
misattributions from Milestone 2h (the actual allocator is this kernel's
own kmalloc) that survived an earlier FABRIC-2.md-only correction. All
three architectures re-verified clean.

sk_repl_idle() auto-flush: implement Section V's "anything dirty? no? done" check
Makes blk_vm_flush_all() (block_words.c) non-static and declares it in block_words.h -- it's already the entire implementation behind SAVE-BUFFERS (block_word_save_buffers() is a one-line wrapper), so sk_repl_idle() can call the exact same flush path outside word dispatch without duplicating any logic. Cheap every idle tick regardless of dirty state: every check inside is a small fixed-size scan, so no separate pre-check was needed on top of it. Caught a real bug via a live persistence test before trusting the feature: the first version gated the flush on sk_repl_get_active_vm() returning non-NULL, but NULL is that accessor's documented default (Tripod's own USE-redirect override, "restore default dispatch") -- without an active USE redirect, the flush silently no-op'd for the entire session. Confirmed live: wrote a byte via BUFFER (no UPDATE/SAVE-BUFFERS), waited past the idle cadence, killed QEMU abruptly, rebooted with the same disk image, read back 0 instead of the written 65. Fixed by threading the VM sk_repl_run()'s own loop already resolves each iteration (g_repl_active_vm ? g_repl_active_vm : vm) down as a parameter through sk_readline() into sk_repl_idle(), rather than trying to re-derive it from an accessor with the wrong default. Re-ran the same test after the fix: read back 65, matching the written byte -- the write survived an abrupt kill with no explicit flush call anywhere in the test, proving the idle-tick auto-flush genuinely ran. All three architectures re-verified clean. FABRIC-2.md Section V item 6 and the corresponding Milestone 3 punch-list item marked done.

Artemis Milestone 2h: hot-detach -- 2h complete
blk_subsys_detach_device() (block_subsystem.c) walks the device chain, refuses removal of anything but the current tail (a mid-chain removal would corrupt every later slot's start_lbn -- this architecture's own doc already argues USB stays last specifically to avoid that), unlinks, shrinks total_user_lbn, closes and frees the slot. Discards rather than flushes dirty state -- the device is physically gone by the time this runs (PORTSC disconnect only). Trigger wiring mirrors the attach path: bot_msc_attached (set only once attach actually succeeds) gates a new bot_msc_detach_pending flag set at PORTSC disconnect (not Disable Slot completion, which is conditionally skipped and would miss concurrent connect/disconnect pairs), consumed in sk_repl_idle(). Advisor flagged the real hazard ahead of time: block_words.c's VM block window (blk_vm_lbn[]/blk_vm_cbuf[]) can go stale across a detach then a same-LBN re-attach, and suggested a pointer-identity re-check in blk_vm_load() as a minimal fix. That fix was implemented, then directly falsified by its own designed-for-this test: attach a blank device, read a block (populating the cache), detach, re-attach a device with distinct content at the identical LBN, read again -- served stale content from the first device. Root cause, confirmed live: glibc's allocator hands free(slot) straight back to the very next same-size calloc(), so the "fresh" and stale pointers were bitwise identical despite being two different devices. Fixed properly with a monotonic blk_subsys_epoch() counter (bumped on every attach/detach) checked by a new blk_vm_check_epoch() helper at the one choke point (blk_vm_find(), plus blk_vm_flush_all() which reads the same arrays directly) that covers every path touching the window cache -- unfooled by address reuse. Verified live with a new disk/usb-thumbdrive-test2.img fixture (distinct content from the existing blank test image): attach A, read (cache hit populated), detach, re-attach B at the same LBN, read again -- correctly ran a fresh device read and returned B's real content, not A's stale cached zeros. The failing pointer-comparison attempt's own capture log kept as evidence, not deleted. All three architectures re-verified clean. FABRIC-2.md Section X 2h marked complete -- enumeration through hot-detach all live and verified; only WRITE(10) (2g's own still-open item) remains unimplemented in the driver, not blocking anything here.

Artemis Milestone 2h: blkio_usb.c backend -- USB thumb drive is now a real block device
Wires a hot-plugged USB Mass Storage device into the block subsystem's unified LBN chain. blkio_usb.c/blkio_usb.h mirror virtio_blk.c/ virtio_blk.h's established shape exactly (singleton state, blkio_vtable_t, a blkio_usb_open_msc() "find" function playing virtio_blk_find_artemis()'s role): read() translates a Forth block into a SCSI LBA/count pair and calls xhci_bot_read_block() + xhci_bot_wait_for_idle(); write() returns BLKIO_ENOSUP (no SCSI WRITE(10) exists yet, and blk_format_or_load_disk() never writes at attach time, so read-only is sufficient -- confirmed by reading that function first, not assumed). Refuses (-2) if the reported SCSI block size doesn't evenly divide the 1024-byte Forth block size. Connect-time wiring reuses the bot_msc_attach_pending/consume-in- sk_repl_idle() shape the prior increment's temp probe already validated, now made permanent: SET_CONFIGURATION sets the flag, sk_repl_idle() (strictly after its own xhci_poll_events() call returns) calls blkio_usb_open_msc() then blk_subsys_attach_device(). Verified live via hot-attach: full chain from USB connect through 'blkio_usb: MSC device ready' to 'blk: disk 'StarForth Volume' v2 LBN 26074..75184 (49111 user blocks)' -- real attachment, disk image confirmed byte-for-byte untouched after. Chased a real debugging detour along the way: the attach initially appeared silent (no blk: log line) -- traced to LOG_INFO filtering at the default LOG_WARN boot level, not a functional bug (settled via a temporary log-level bump, reverted after capture; also found and reported, but did not fix, a pre-existing unrelated Makefile.starkernel bug where --log-level=info via KERNEL_ARGS breaks printf parsing). All three architectures re-verified clean. FABRIC-2.md Section X 2h updated -- only hot-detach remains for 2h.

Artemis Milestone 2h (foundational): sync wait bridge + SCSI READ CAPACITY(10)
Closes the gap block_subsystem.c needs before any of 2h's real work (blkio_usb.c, attach wiring, hot-detach) can start: this driver is fully async/polled with no way for a synchronous caller (blkio_read()/ blkio_info() etc.) to get a result back. xhci_bot_wait_for_idle() is a bounded busy-wait over xhci_poll_events() -- MUST be called only from outside xhci_poll_events()'s own call frame, never from within it or a next_action dispatch (recursion into live Event Ring/ERDP processing, same class of hazard already documented for doorbell rings in this driver). xhci_get_dev() exposes the module-static device handle to outside callers that didn't observe the original hotplug event. SCSI READ CAPACITY(10) (opcode 0x25) is the other half -- nothing could learn a device's block size/capacity before this. First attempt sent it bare and hit the classic first-command UNIT ATTENTION (CSW FAILED); fixed with the same TUR-guard pattern READ(10) already used, generalized via a new bot_tur_chain_target field so TEST UNIT READY's PASS handling can chain into either command. bot_data_buf grown 512->1024 bytes (one Forth block = two 512-byte SCSI blocks, per block_subsystem.c's own 1KiB-unit convention). Verified live via a temporary probe (hot-attached disk/usb-thumbdrive- test.img via QMP, reverted after capture): TUR-guarded READ CAPACITY10 correctly reported last LBA=0x1ffff, block size=0x200 -- exactly 64MiB, matching the test image byte for byte -- followed by a TUR-guarded 1024-byte/2-block READ10, both PASS. All three architectures re-verified clean, probe-free boot to ok> on the reverted tree. FABRIC-2.md Section X 2h updated with the writeup; the blkio_usb.c backend itself is next.

Artemis Milestone 2g: TEST UNIT READY unit-init sequence -- READ(10) now PASSes
Roots out the CSW status FAILED left unexplained in the prior increment: a freshly attached SCSI target's standing UNIT ATTENTION condition, which a bare READ(10) with no retry can never clear. xhci_bot_send_test_unit_ready() sends SCSI TEST UNIT READY (SPC-4 6.33) ahead of the real command; the CSW handler now tags command kind (bot_cmd_kind) to distinguish a TUR completion from a READ10 completion, chains TUR PASS into the real READ(10), and bounded-retries TUR on FAILED/PHASE ERROR (bot_tur_retries, capped at XHCI_BOT_TUR_MAX_RETRIES). xhci_bot_read_block() is the new intended entry point tying lba/num_blocks/block_size + the TUR-first sequencing together. Verified live via a temporary probe (hot-attached disk/usb-thumbdrive-test.img through the running instance's QMP socket), captured on amd64: full chain CBW(TUR) -> FAILED -> retry -> PASS -> CBW(READ10) -> Data-In -> CSW PASS. Probe reverted after capture; all three architectures re-verified clean, probe-free boot to ok>. FABRIC-2.md Section X 2g updated with the writeup.

Artemis Milestone 2g: Data-In stage read and CSW receive/validation
Completes the CBW -> Data-In -> CSW chain for READ(10) started last commit. xhci_bot_read_data_in() and xhci_bot_receive_csw(), each a single Normal TRB on the bulk IN Transfer Ring via a new xhci_bulk_in_enqueue_and_ring() helper (mirrors the OUT-side helper from CBW send). All three stages now chain automatically via the existing deferred next_action pattern: CBW completion defers into Data-In, Data-In completion defers into CSW receive, CSW completion is where signature/tag/status validation happens. Data-In reads into a new fixed 512-byte bot_data_buf -- single-block scope for this increment, matches QEMU's usb-storage reported block size; xhci_bot_send_read10() now refuses rather than overflow/truncate if a request exceeds it. CSW validation (BOT spec section 5.2) checks dCSWSignature and dCSWTag (a new bot_last_tag field, latched from the CBW) before trusting bCSWStatus at all, so a garbled/misaligned CSW read can't be misread as a clean pass. usb_bot_csw_t follows the same struct-with-explicit-length-not-sizeof discipline as usb_bot_cbw_t. Verified live via a temporary probe (written, run once, log captured, reverted per this project's own probe convention), all three architectures, byte-identical: the full CBW -> Data-In -> CSW exchange completes cleanly, well-formed CSW with correct signature and echoed tag, no wedge, clean disconnect immediately after. The SCSI command itself reports CSW status FAILED against the current test fixture -- expected at this stage (no TEST UNIT READY / UNIT ATTENTION handling implemented yet, consistent with a fresh-attach unit-attention condition, not a transport-layer defect) and not root-caused further here; the BOT mechanism itself is confirmed correct end to end. Probe-free re-verification afterward on all three architectures. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2g's CSW checklist item marked done; "get one real READ(10) working end to end" stays explicitly open, distinguishing "the mechanism works" from "the SCSI command succeeds."

Artemis Milestone 2g: CBW construction and send for SCSI READ(10)
First real use of the bulk Transfer Rings Configure Endpoint wired up. xhci_bot_send_read10() builds a 31-byte Command Block Wrapper (USB Mass Storage Class Bulk-Only Transport spec section 5.1) and submits it as a single Normal TRB on the bulk OUT ring via a new xhci_bulk_out_enqueue_and_ring() helper -- a CBW is always exactly one TRB, so unlike the EP0 helper this one rings its own doorbell rather than leaving that to a caller assembling a group. usb_bot_cbw_t is a real struct (every field up to the CDB array is naturally aligned, and this driver's targets are all little-endian already assumed everywhere else), but its DMA length is the explicit USB_BOT_CBW_LENGTH (31) constant, never sizeof(*cbw), since the compiler may pad the struct to 32 bytes. The SCSI READ(10) CDB itself is written byte-by-byte since its LBA/Transfer Length fields are big-endian on the wire, unlike everything else in this driver -- the one place two byte orders are both live in the same function. Completion is correlated via the existing pending_transfer_slot_id/ transfer_purpose gate (new XHCI_XFER_CBW_SENT purpose) -- no ring-specific dispatch needed, since this driver's single-outstanding- transfer scope already implies which ring produced an event. This covers construction and send only (one third of a full READ(10): CBW -> Data-In stage -> CSW) -- reading the Data-In stage and CSW receive/validation are separate, explicitly not-yet-implemented items. Verified live via a temporary probe (written, run once, log captured, reverted per this project's own probe convention) -- all three architectures, byte-identical: CBW submitted -> CBW send completed, then a clean disconnect even with the Data-In stage never drained (confirms no wedge on a dangling BOT transaction). Probe-free re-verification afterward on all three architectures. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2g's CBW checklist item marked done. Also records a monitoring gotcha hit three times this session: `ls -t` over the logs/ tree can return a stale leftover log from an earlier run in the same session -- fixed going forward by reading the log path off the actual running QEMU process's own command line instead, and a memory note added so it doesn't recur next session.

Artemis Milestone 2g: Configure Endpoint command
Adds the xHCI Configure Endpoint command for the two bulk endpoints identified by the previous increment, and fixes control-transfer sequencing to match the spec: xHCI 1.2 section 4.3.5 requires Configure Endpoint before SET_CONFIGURATION is sent to the device, the reverse of the order this driver used through 2f (which happened to work against QEMU's lenient qemu-xhci emulation but wasn't spec-correct). New XHCI_TRB_TYPE_CONFIGURE_ENDPOINT_CMD, EP Context type constants for Bulk IN/OUT, and an XHCI_EP_ADDR_TO_DCI() macro (DCI = 2*EndpointNumber + Direction) in xhci.h. xhci_cmd_configure_endpoint() builds the Input Context (Slot + one EP Context per DCI up to the highest bulk endpoint in use) and submits the command via the existing next_action deferral mechanism, correlated on completion via a new XHCI_CONN_AWAIT_CONFIGURE_ENDPOINT connect_state, then chains into the existing SET_CONFIGURATION path. Two allocations had to grow beyond what Address Device sized them for: the Input Context (previously room for one EP Context only) and, less obviously, the Device Context that DCBAA[slot_id] itself points at -- the controller only touches DCIs named in a command's own Add/Drop flags, so growing that buffer required copying its existing Slot+EP0 content forward rather than zeroing it, to avoid handing the controller a blank EP0 out from under an endpoint this command isn't touching. Bulk Transfer Rings (bulk_in_ring/bulk_out_ring) are allocated and wired into the new EP Contexts but not yet exercised by an actual transfer -- CBW/CSW submission is next. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures, byte-identical: bulk endpoint identification -> configure endpoint command submitted -> configure endpoint succeeded -> the existing set configuration -> device configured chain, then a clean disconnect/disable-slot teardown afterward with the larger Device Context installed. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2g's endpoint identify+configure checklist item marked fully done.

Artemis Milestone 2g (partial): bulk endpoint discovery + 2e disconnect teardown
Picked up from a crashed session: xhci_driver.h/xhci.h already had the bulk_in/out_ep_addr/max_packet fields and Endpoint-descriptor offset macros scaffolded, but the actual walk that populates them was never written. Added it: after 2f confirms a Mass Storage/SCSI/BOT interface, a nested walk continues through the Endpoint descriptors that follow it (bDescriptorType==5, stopping at the next Interface descriptor or end of stream), keeping only Bulk-type endpoints and splitting IN/OUT by bEndpointAddress bit 7. Also reset the four new fields in xhci_bringup(), which the scaffolding had missed. Also completed 2e's disconnect teardown, which was fully implemented this session (not scaffolded): a Disable Slot command is now submitted on a real disconnect, with the port's tracked slot ID captured and cleared from port_slot_id[] immediately (before the command completes) so a fresh connect on the same port isn't confused for one already in progress, and DCBAA[slot_id] cleared only on a successful completion. Verified live via QMP hotplug (deliberate device_add/device_del against freshly launched, individually-tracked instances -- not whatever happened to be attached at boot), all three architectures, byte-identical: bulk IN endpoint=0x81, bulk OUT endpoint=0x02, then a clean disconnect -> disable slot succeeded, no wedge. Caught and fixed a documentation near-miss in the same pass: an initial draft cited the probe-free three-arch acceptance boots as this feature's verification evidence, but a stale leftover log directory from a pre-crash orphaned QEMU process had been picked up by an `ls -dt | head -1` glob during monitoring and mistaken for this session's own result -- the real acceptance logs never had a device attached at all. Re-verified against real PIDs and real log paths before writing FABRIC-2.md's final writeup. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2 updated: 2e's disconnect-teardown checklist item marked done, 2g's endpoint-identification item marked partially done (identification only -- Configure Endpoint / EP Context wiring is still open).

Artemis Milestone 2f: SET_CONFIGURATION -- 2f complete
Chains off a confirmed Mass Storage/SCSI/BOT interface match via the existing next_action deferral mechanism: device descriptor -> config descriptor -> SET_CONFIGURATION is now a single automatic sequence. bConfigurationValue is read directly out of the already-fetched config_descriptor buffer, no extra transfer needed. First write control transfer this driver has issued (every prior one was a read), so it needed its own submission helper, xhci_ep0_control_write_nodata() -- SET_CONFIGURATION has no Data Stage (wLength=0), and per USB 2.0 spec 8.5.3 a no-data control transfer's Status Stage is always IN, the reverse of an OUT-data request's status stage. XHCI_SETUP_TRT_NO_DATA already existed in xhci.h, unused until now. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures, worked first try, byte-identical: "set configuration submitted" -> "device configured", guest stays running throughout (checked via QMP query-status). Disconnect confirmed clean on every arch afterward, no wedge. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2f updated -- 2f is now fully complete, 2g (Bulk-Only Transport) can start.

Artemis Milestone 2f: Configuration descriptor read + Mass Storage/BOT class confirmation
Chains off the device descriptor request via a new deferred-action mechanism on xhci_dev_t (next_action/next_action_slot_id/next_action_length): a short 9-byte Configuration descriptor read learns wTotalLength, then a full read retrieves Config+Interface+Endpoint descriptors, walked for the Interface descriptor to confirm bInterfaceClass/SubClass/Protocol == Mass Storage/ SCSI/Bulk-Only Transport. The deferral exists because ringing the next doorbell synchronously inside xhci_poll_events()'s event-processing loop -- before the current event's ERDP write -- hung the guest outright (confirmed live via checkpoint logging, amd64). Fixed by moving the actual control-transfer submission to a small dispatch at the end of xhci_poll_events(), after ERDP is updated. A debug hack that shipped mid-session (forcing a repeated 9-byte read instead of chaining into the real 44-byte length, to isolate whether the hang was doorbell-ordering or length-specific) has been reverted: restored the real length and re-verified live. The doorbell-ordering fix was the whole story -- the 44-byte read completes cleanly. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures, byte-identical results: wTotalLength=0x2c, bInterfaceClass=0x08, bInterfaceSubClass=0x06, bInterfaceProtocol=0x50 -- confirmed Mass Storage/SCSI/BOT. Disconnect confirmed clean on every arch, no wedge. FABRIC-2.md Section X Milestone 2f updated with the full writeup.

Artemis Milestone 2f: EP0 control transfer, device descriptor request
Adds Setup/Data/Status stage TRB types and control bits (IDT, TRT, DIR) to xhci.h, and xhci_ep0_enqueue_trb()/xhci_ep0_get_device_descriptor() to xhci.c -- the first real control transfer this driver has issued. Follows the same enqueue-then-doorbell-once pattern as the Command Ring, operating on the EP0 Transfer Ring built during 2e's Address Device work. Setup Stage uses Immediate Data (parameter IS the 8-byte setup packet); Data Stage reads into a reused 18-byte device_descriptor buffer; Status Stage alone carries IOC, so exactly one Transfer Event signals transfer completion, correlated via a new pending_transfer_slot_id (same single-outstanding-operation pattern as connect/Enable Slot/Address Device). Automatically triggered once Address Device succeeds. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures, worked first try with identical results everywhere: idVendor=0x46f4, idProduct=0x0001, bDeviceClass=0x00 -- the class=0 confirms Mass Storage class detection needs the Configuration/Interface descriptor (2f's next item), not the device descriptor.

Milestone 6 (ACL/PKI): Ed25519 verify + SHA-512, built from scratch
New freestanding, verify-only Ed25519 (RFC 8032) implementation:
include/starkernel/{sha512,fe25519,scalar25519,ed25519}.h +
src/starkernel/crypto/{sha512,fe25519,scalar25519,ed25519}.c, wired into
Makefile.starkernel. Kernel never signs or generates keys -- only
ed25519_verify() is needed; signing happens in the host-side mkcapsule
build tool via libsodium/OpenSSL.
Confirmed __int128 multiply/add/shift-by-constant compile with zero
undefined symbols on all three target toolchains (only division needs
libgcc's __udivti3, per timer.c's existing documented finding -- that
file's comment updated to narrow the claim, since it had been read as
"avoid __int128 entirely"). This enabled the standard 5-limb radix-2^51
field arithmetic representation.
An abandoned first attempt (10-limb radix-2^26, avoiding __int128 out of
premature caution) hit two real bugs, both invisible on inspection and
found only by property-based testing against Python's own bignum
arithmetic: a non-uniform-radix limb misalignment in multiplication, and
a double-counted carry. Verification chain: SHA-512 against known +
boundary vectors (7/7); field arithmetic property-tested 25,045 cases;
scalar-mod-L arithmetic 300 cases (L confirmed prime via Miller-Rabin
first); full verify() end-to-end against 110 real signatures from
Python's cryptography library, including tampered inputs and the RFC
8032 S>=L malleability attack -- all correctly accepted/rejected.
Compiles clean (zero warnings) and links on all three architectures,
confirmed via the mandatory three-arch QEMU boot. The code is linked but
not yet called from anywhere -- wiring into capsule_birth.c needs a
from-scratch X.509/DER parser first (Captain Bob chose real X.509 over a
raw-blob cert format this session), which is the next open item.

Artemis Milestone 2e: Address Device implemented, worked first try, 3-arch
Adds Slot/Endpoint/Input Control Context structs (32-byte layout only -- HCCPARAMS1.CSZ checked live and confirmed 0 against this driver's QEMU target; 64-byte contexts refuse rather than silently mis-laying-out), xhci_cmd_address_device(), and a new dev->connect_state (idle/await-enable-slot/await-address-device) sequencing Enable Slot and Address Device per connect. Input Context (what the command TRB's parameter points at) and Device Context (what DCBAA[slot_id] points at) are separate 64-byte-aligned allocations, lazily created once and reused across every connect -- single-device driver scope, no free path needed. A new EP0 Transfer Ring uses the same fixed-ring-plus-Link-TRB pattern as the Command Ring. Two facts checked live before writing any context code, not assumed: HCCPARAMS1.CSZ (32-byte, confirmed) and PORTSC.PED at connect time (already set -- PORTSC=0x00021203, SuperSpeed -- the test device self-enables via USB3 link training, so no port-reset state machine was needed this increment; USB2 would need one, untested). Both diagnostics also added console_puts/println-based hex logging (xhci_log_hex32()) -- console_println() only takes string literals, no formatted print existed on this driver's console path before now. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures, succeeded on the first attempt with no debugging needed: "enable slot succeeded" -> "address device command submitted" -> "address device succeeded" on every boot. Also fixes a FABRIC-2.md dependency-direction error from the previous commit (Address Device is 2f's prerequisite, not the reverse).

Artemis Milestone 2e: real connect drives Enable Slot, slot ID correlated
xhci_poll_events()'s Port Status Change connect branch now calls xhci_cmd_enable_slot() directly (the earlier boot-time smoke test call is gone), tracked via a new dev->pending_connect_port_id -- since this driver only ever has one command outstanding at a time, that alone identifies which port a later Command Completion Event answers, without needing to match the Command TRB Pointer yet. On success the returned Slot ID is recorded in a new dev->port_slot_id[], a fixed uint32_t[XHCI_MAX_TRACKED_PORTS] (32) indexed by port. Disconnect clears the port's tracked slot (real teardown -- Disable Slot, DCBAA clear, Section U callback -- is still a later increment). Fixed array, not heap-allocated: a first attempt sized port_slot_id dynamically via kmalloc_aligned(dev->max_ports * sizeof(uint32_t), 64) inside xhci_bringup() and it crashed amd64 with a page fault (IFETCH at RIP=CR2=0xA0000, the legacy VGA hole) during the unrelated Mama-VM-birth phase afterward -- a heap-corruption signature, not chased to root cause. Switching to a fixed array (matching this driver's existing preference for fixed over dynamic allocation) made the crash go away; the crashing boot's log is kept (logs/20260822-102516/) as the evidence trail. Verified live via QMP hotplug, all three architectures: connect -> "enable slot command submitted" -> "enable slot succeeded", with a disconnect/reconnect cycle repeating cleanly and no port wedge.

Artemis Milestone 2e: PORTSC connect/disconnect detection, verified live
xhci_poll_events()'s Port Status Change branch now decodes the Port ID from the event TRB (XHCI_PSC_EVT_PORT_ID, new in xhci.h), reads that port's PORTSC.CCS via a new xhci_port_regs() helper, and logs connect vs. disconnect. Acknowledges by writing back only PP (preserved) and CSC (the bit being cleared) -- PED/PR/other _C bits written 0 so nothing is accidentally disabled, reset, or silently cleared, matching the RW1C discipline already used for ERDP.EHB in 2d. Verified with the real target scenario via QMP hotplug on all three architectures: boot with the xHCI controller present but no USB device attached (confirmed zero port activity at ok>), then live attach/detach/re-attach of a virtual USB thumb drive (disk/usb-thumbdrive-test.img via usb-storage on xhci0.0). Full connect->disconnect->connect cycle confirmed clean (no port wedge) on amd64; single connect confirmed on aarch64 and riscv64. Still open: correlating Command Completion Events back to their issuing command, driving Enable Slot/Address Device from this connect path (currently only a boot-time smoke test), and the callback surface into Section U's higher-level code.

Artemis Milestone 2e: virtual USB thumb-drive hotplug test + block-layout decisions
Verified live on amd64: booted with the xHCI controller present but no USB device attached (no Port Status Change at ok>), then hotplug-attached a virtual USB thumb drive via QMP (usb-storage on xhci0.0, backed by disk/usb-thumbdrive-test.img) and got an immediate port status change event -- the real connect trigger Milestone 2e's PORTSC handling will consume next. Confirmed blk_subsys_attach_device() (src/block_subsystem.c) is already the correct integration point for USB -- it already appends a new device to the end of the existing LBN chain, matching the intended design. Documented the remaining gaps: no blkio_usb.c backend yet, no hot-detach path in the device chain yet. Decided the on-drive layout for USB thumb drives: GPT-partitioned (unlike artemis.img's whole-device StarForth header), ~1GB metadata partition + remainder for blocks, 16GB reference drive size, sizing tentative. No GPT parser exists in kernel code yet -- new prerequisite work for Milestone 2h/3, not blocking current 2e work. disk/usb-thumbdrive-test.img added as a tracked test fixture, per this repo's standing convention that virtual disk/thumb-drive images used for testing are committed, not left in scratchpad.

Artemis Milestone 2e (in progress): xHCI Command Ring write path proven live
Enable Slot command TRB submitted via a new xhci_submit_command()/ xhci_cmd_enable_slot(), ring doorbell 0, confirmed by a real Command Completion Event on all three architectures -- the first time this driver has written a TRB rather than only reading the Event Ring (2d). Added the Command Ring's previously-missing Link TRB (xHCI 1.2 spec sec 4.9.2) for wraparound correctness. Port Register connect/disconnect handling, slot-ID/context bookkeeping, Address Device, and the callback surface into Section U's code are still open -- this is the discriminating first step, not full 2e.

Artemis Milestone 2d: xHCI Event Ring servicing, polled not interrupt-driven
Implements Event Ring TRB parsing and ERDP dequeue-pointer update
(xhci_poll_events(), src/starkernel/usb/xhci.c), called from
sk_repl_idle()'s existing ~1s idle cadence rather than a per-arch
interrupt handler.
A first attempt wired real interrupt delivery (PCI->IOAPIC GSI routing,
a dedicated isr_stub34/vector 0x22, GIC/PLIC routing mirroring
virtio_input.c). Checked live via QMP query-pci before trusting it: the
amd64 PIRQ swizzle formula predicted GSI 16 for the xHCI controller at
PCI slot 4; the real QEMU-assigned IRQ was 10, and embedded ICH9
functions contradicted the same formula too. Reverted all of it back to
the exact committed baseline rather than chasing chipset PIRQ routing
further, and reframed around Section U item 6's own design intent
("interrupt-driven, coarse cadence, cheap early-exit... quick check
blocks... done") via sk_repl_idle() instead -- USB insertion is a
human-timescale event, not a hot path.
Added -device qemu-xhci to all three QEMU launch targets (required for
any of this to be testable). Verified end to end via genuine post-boot
hotplug (QMP device_add/device_del usb-storage): all three architectures
detect a live attach within seconds. A false-alarm heartbeat "freeze"
found mid-verification traced to querying the wrong counter
(vm->heartbeat.tick_count, which only advances during word execution,
not the kernel's real ISR-driven heartbeat_ticks()) -- confirmed via a
temporary diagnostic word, captured and reverted.
Full writeup, including the discarded interrupt-routing attempt and the
false-alarm investigation, in FABRIC-2.md's Milestone 2c/2d entries.

Artemis Milestone 2c: xHCI controller bring-up wired, DoE CSV export off by default
xhci_bringup() (HC reset, DCBAA, Command/Event rings, RUN/STOP) was uncommitted and referenced an XHCI_WAIT_FOR macro that was never defined, breaking the build. Wired all four wait sites to the existing xhci_wait_bit() helper instead, matching each register/bit/polarity needed (halt-before-reset waits for HCH set; HCRST, CNR, and post-RUN HCH waits all wait for their bit to clear). Also flipped g_doe_log_enabled's default from 1 to 0 -- the per-tick [HADES][DOE] CSV export was flooding every boot log and slowing interactive verification for no reason during ordinary acceptance runs; HB-ON still re-enables it at the REPL for anyone running an actual DoE campaign. Three-arch acceptance: amd64/aarch64/riscv64 all boot clean to ok>, zero DoE rows in any log. aarch64 and riscv64 both exited cleanly via BYE with no exception, confirming the earlier SMC->HVC PSCI fix still holds. Logs and DoE CSV artifacts from this run included. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HZ8kNoTuP63pbQtro4qvrm |

Artemis Milestone 2b complete: xHCI PCI discovery and BAR0 mapping
New src/starkernel/usb/ subsystem directory (added to both LOADER_SRCS_BASE and KERNEL_SRCS_BASE wildcards in Makefile.starkernel, matching the existing virtio/*.c pattern). xhci_find_and_map() locates the controller via the already-generic pci_find_first(), enables it, maps BAR0 via the already-generic pci_map_bar(), and fills in all four register-region pointers (cap/op/runtime/doorbell) plus max_slots/ max_ports/max_intrs from HCSPARAMS1 -- ready for controller bring-up (2c) to consume directly. No pci.c extension needed, per 2a's finding that PCI discovery here is ID-based lookup (already generic), not class-code scanning. Verified: clean standalone syntax check, full amd64 kernel build with zero warnings, live boot still reaches POST 1012/0/0 unaffected (nothing calls xhci_find_and_map() yet, so this is purely additive).

Artemis Milestone 1 complete: QMP socket added to all three QEMU
launch targets, three-arch verified Makefile.starkernel: added -qmp unix:$QMP_SOCK,server=on,wait=off to the amd64/aarch64/riscv64 qemu targets, matching the existing serial chardev socket pattern exactly (same discoverability, same cleanup on exit). Verified on all three architectures: QMP greeting arrives on connect, qmp_capabilities handshake succeeds, device_add/device_del round-trip correctly. Real finding surfaced during device_add testing (recorded in FABRIC-2.md's punch list for Milestone 2): the q35 machine's pcie.0 root bus doesn't support runtime PCI hotplug without a bridge -- Milestone 2's qemu-xhci USB controller needs to be present in the static launch command, with USB devices hot-attached to its bus at runtime, not the controller itself hot-added. Also noted: g_doe_log_enabled's default-on per-tick heartbeat CSV export was briefly mistaken for a hang during aarch64 verification -- it isn't one, just a large volume of routine diagnostic output before reaching ok>. Not changing the source default; adopting HB-OFF immediately after boot as the working pattern for the rest of this punch list's dev work. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

ACL-TTL overhead: full 36-cell campaign complete (6 seeds), FABRIC-2.md
Section T -- +0.0603%, final accepted figure Extended Section S's 3-seed/9-pair campaign to 6 seeds/18 pairs (36 cells) per Captain Bob's request for a fuller campaign before moving on. All 36 cells: 480/480 rows, 0 errors, 17,280/17,280 rows total. Every one of 18 disabled cells reads exactly 261063 ticks -- CV=0.000% across all 3 architectures and 6 seeds, zero exceptions. Every enabled cell's tick count is fully determined by seed alone, identical across all 3 architectures, zero exceptions. Pooled overhead across all 18 pairs: +0.0603% (mean +0.0603%, stdev 0.0008%, range +0.0598%- +0.0617%) -- statistically indistinguishable from Section S's 9-pair figure, now confirmed over double the data with 3 entirely new seeds. This closes the ACL-TTL overhead measurement line of investigation (Sections P, Q, R, S, T). +0.0603% is the final accepted figure. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
