Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 53e6c5709f 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.

Public headers for the hosted StarForth VM (src/). Kernel-only headers live under include/starkernel/.

Core VM

  • vm.h — the VM struct and all core types (DictEntry, DictPhysics, stacks, dictionary state); the central header most other files include.
  • vm_api.h — external VM API surface.
  • vm_host.h, vm_debug.h, startup.h, version.h — host integration, debug utilities, startup sequencing, version string.
  • cli.h, repl.h, io.h, log.h — CLI parsing, REPL loop, I/O, logging.
  • word_registry.h — word registration system shared by every src/word_source/*.c file.
  • compudynamics.h — the generic compudynamics module: tuning-word/config lookups (cd_tuning_word(), cd_tuning_vm()) consumed by ssm_jacquard.c.

Memory / blocks

  • memory_management.h, dictionary_management.h — dictionary allocator and search.
  • block_subsystem.h, blkcfg.h, blkio.h, blkio_factory.h — logical→ physical block mapper and pluggable block I/O backends (file/RAM).
  • platform_alloc.h, platform_lock.h, platform_time.h — platform abstraction shims (hosted vs. kernel allocation/locking/timing).

Physics-driven adaptive runtime (7 feedback loops)

  • physics_runtime.h — main physics coordinator.
  • physics_hotwords_cache.h — Loop #1, execution-heat hot-words cache.
  • physics_metadata.h — per-word DictPhysics metadata tracking.
  • physics_pipelining_metrics.h — Loop #4, word-transition prediction.
  • physics_execution_hooks.h — execution instrumentation hook points.
  • rolling_window_of_truth.h, rolling_window_knobs.h — Loop #2 circular execution-history buffer and its tuning knobs.
  • inference_engine.h — Loops #5/#6, window-width and decay-slope statistical inference.
  • dictionary_heat_optimization.h — Loop #1 heat counters.
  • ssm_jacquard.h — L8 Jacquard steady-state mode selector.
  • doe_metrics.h — Design of Experiments (2^7 factorial) metrics.
  • profiler.h — performance profiling hooks.

Arithmetic / codegen

  • q48_16.h — Q48.16 deterministic fixed-point arithmetic (used instead of IEEE-754 float specifically to keep cross-architecture behavior bit-identical).
  • math_portable.h — portable math helpers.
  • arch_detect.h, starforth_config.h — architecture detection and the build-flag fallback-default layer (used when a .c file is compiled by hand without make).
  • vm_asm_opt.h, vm_asm_opt_arm64.h, vm_asm_opt_riscv64.h, vm_inner_interp_asm.h, vm_inner_interp_arm64.h, vm_inner_interp_riscv64.h — per-architecture assembler-optimized inner interpreter (USE_ASM_OPT=1).

See include/starkernel/README.md for the bare-metal kernel headers.
