FABRIC.md -> FABRIC-0.md FABRIC-2.md -> FABRIC-1.md FABRIC-3.md -> FABRIC-2.md (the current/living document) FABRIC-4.md unchanged (new #3 to follow separately) Every cross-reference repo-wide updated to match, including doc-comment citations inside kernel source (.c/.h) files -- done via an ordered placeholder substitution (FABRIC-3.md->placeholder2, FABRIC-2.md-> placeholder1, FABRIC.md->placeholder0, then placeholders resolved to final names) in a single pass per file to avoid double-shifting already-renamed references. One line in capsules/font.4th grew past the 64-char block-format limit as a side effect of the longer filename; shortened it and reverified with mkcapsule --lint (34/34 pass) before rebuilding. Verified 3-arch boot to ok> (amd64/aarch64/riscv64, each in the foreground) after the fix; logs and DoE CSVs from this session's verification runs included per this repo's own audit-artifact convention.

src/starkernel/vm/
Kernel-side StarForth VM subsystem.
vm_core.c— kernel port of the core interpreter loop.vm_runtime.c— kernel VM runtime support.vm_bootstrap.c— kernel VM bootstrap (distinct frombootstrap/sk_vm_bootstrap.c, which owns the higher-level subsystem wiring called fromkernel_main.c).arena.c— capsule arena allocator (fixed-region allocation for capsule payload data).parity.c— birth/execution parity logging (VM ID + capsule hash + dictionary hash), enabling offline determinism verification.alloc_kernel.c— the kernel-side implementation of the VM's allocator interface actually referenced byMakefile.starkernel's build (seesrc/platform/README.mdfor a note on a second, unwired copy).q48_stubs.c— deliberate no-op stubs forq48_from_double()/q48_to_double()in the freestanding kernel build, where floating point is unavailable; always returns zero, safe because shared VM code only uses these results for logging/diagnostic paths that are inactive in the kernel build.vm_internal.h— internal-only declarations shared across this directory's files.
Subdirectories:
bootstrap/sk_vm_bootstrap.c— owns VM init + capsule loading wiring, called fromkernel_main.c;kernel_main.citself only owns hardware milestones.host/shim.c— host-service shim bridging the kernel VM tosrc/starkernel/hal/host_services.c.
