rpi5_native_boot.c: carve /reserved-memory out of the Pi 5 memory map
Previously deferred (rpi5_native_boot.c's own header comment flagged this
as needing interval-splitting logic written blind against hardware not
yet in hand) -- revisited by fetching bcm2712-ds.dtsi directly rather than
assuming reserved-memory was empty or absent. It has one static child
(atf@0, ARM Trusted Firmware's own region) and one dynamic child
(linux,cma, size/alloc-ranges only, no fixed reg) -- the dynamic one is
skipped, nothing fixed to carve and no allocator this early to service it
against anyway.

Adds two fdt.c primitives: fdt_find_node_by_name() (reserved-memory has
neither compatible nor device_type per DT spec) and fdt_next_child_node()
-- one exported symbol, not the two-primitive general sibling-walker
originally sketched, collapsed after review since the only real use here
is "iterate one node's direct children."

collect_reserved_ranges() reads each child's own #address-cells/
#size-cells with a fallback to root's only if absent -- confirmed
necessary, not just defensive: reserved-memory's own declared <2>/<1>
genuinely differs from root's <2>/<2>. emit_region_with_carveouts()
clips a sorted reserved-range list against each RAM region, emitting
alternating EfiConventionalMemory gaps and EfiReservedMemoryType
carve-outs (insertion sort, no libc qsort in freestanding).
RPI5_MAX_MEMMAP_ENTRIES is the exact worst-case count, recomputed rather
than estimated -- the rpi5_mailbox.c buffer-size bug is the standing
lesson for this pattern.

Compile-only-verified; nothing in the existing UEFI/QEMU path calls
rpi5_native_boot(), so this cannot be exercised until real hardware.
Verified 3-arch boot to ok>/zuse)ok>.

include/starkernel/

Headers for LithosAnanke, the bare-metal UEFI kernel (src/starkernel/). Built only via Makefile.starkernel; gated by __STARKERNEL__ when shared with hosted code.

  • uefi.h — UEFI protocol/type definitions consumed by the loader.
  • elf64.h, elf_loader.h — ELF64 parsing and kernel-image loading.
  • boot_info_offsets.h — struct-offset constants shared between the assembly bootstrap and the C boot path.
  • arch.h, apic.h, timer.h — architecture init, APIC interrupt controller, timer (TSC/HPET/APIC, 100 Hz heartbeat).
  • console.h, framebuffer.h, vt100.h — UART 16550 console, framebuffer driver, and VT100 terminal emulation over the framebuffer.
  • pmm.h, vmm.h, kmalloc.h — physical memory manager (bitmap allocator), 4-level x86_64 paging, kernel heap allocator.
  • pci.h, virtio_blk.h — PCI enumeration and the VirtIO block device driver (disk backend for the kernel block subsystem).
  • capsule.h, capsule_birth.h, capsule_loader.h, capsule_run.h, capsule_vm_physics.h, capsule_generated.h — capsule system types, birth protocol, physics-runtime capsule bindings, and the build-time- generated capsule directory (see tools/mkcapsule.c).
  • kernel_args.h, cmdline.h — boot-time kernel argument parsing (starforth.cfg / command line).
  • repl.h — kernel REPL.
  • log.h, doe_log.h — kernel logging and DoE metrics logging.
  • q48_16.h — kernel-build copy of Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.
  • xxhash64.h — content-addressing hash used for capsule IDs.
  • hal_memory.h — hardware-abstraction-layer memory interface.

Subdirectories:

  • hal/ — top-level hardware-abstraction-layer interface.
  • vm/ — kernel VM subsystem headers (capsule arena, parity logging, bootstrap wiring).
  • freestanding/ — minimal libc-shim headers (assert.h, ctype.h, errno.h, inttypes.h, math.h, sched.h, signal.h, stdio.h, stdlib.h, string.h, time.h, sys/time.h, sys/types.h) for building shared VM code in the freestanding kernel environment, where no real libc is available.
