New include/starkernel/rpi5_dtb.h / src/starkernel/arch/aarch64/rpi5_dtb.c:
rpi5_uart_base()/rpi5_mailbox_base(), each finding their peripheral by
compatible string ("arm,pl011" / "brcm,bcm2835-mbox") via fdt_find_node_by_
compatible() then reading its "reg" via fdt_find_prop_in_node().
Found and fixed a real translation gap before it could have silently
produced a wrong address: confirmed directly against bcm2712.dtsi
(raspberrypi/linux) that both peripherals live under one "soc"
simple-bus node whose ranges property adds a fixed 0x10_0000_0000
offset to every child reg value. fdt.c's reader deliberately doesn't
apply ranges translation generally (not a general devicetree
library); this file applies that one, fixed, SoC-wide offset
explicitly, documented with the exact devicetree excerpt that
confirmed it.
Compile-only verification -- no caller wired in yet, these two
functions are what the still-open entry-stub and mailbox-framebuffer-
driver punch-list items will call. Verified 3-arch boot to ok>
(amd64/aarch64/riscv64, each in the foreground; rpi5_dtb.o confirmed
built on aarch64, the only arch that compiles this file).

src/starkernel/
LithosAnanke — the bare-metal UEFI kernel that boots StarForth directly on
hardware (amd64/aarch64/riscv64). Built only via Makefile.starkernel; the
only valid acceptance test is the three-arch QEMU boot (see
.claude/CLAUDE.md), never make test.
kernel_main.c— kernel entry point, driving the boot milestones (console init, PMM, VMM, interrupts, timers, kmalloc heap, VM bootstrap).repl.c— kernel REPL.doe_log.c— kernel-side DoE (Design of Experiments) metrics logging.
Subdirectories:
arch/{amd64,aarch64,riscv64}/— per-architecture support (APIC/GIC/ PLIC interrupt controller, timers, boot/ISR assembly).boot/— UEFI loader, ELF loading, kernel command-line parsing.capsule/— capsule birth/run/load/validate pipeline.hal/— hardware-abstraction-layer implementation (console, framebuffer, VT100, memory, host services).hash/— XXHash64 content-addressing implementation.math/— kernel-build Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.memory/— physical/virtual memory managers and the kernel heap.pci/— PCI bus enumeration.virtio/— VirtIO block device driver.vm/— kernel VM subsystem (bootstrap, core interpreter, parity logging, capsule arena).
See include/starkernel/README.md for the corresponding headers.
