Replaces L2's interim DMA pool (every buffer reachable by every claimed
device) with true per-grant confinement: a device reaches only buffers
whose capability was delegated to its driver.
Kernel:
- DmaRegionObject (handle kind 2): a delegation token naming a dma_alloc'd
region, passable across processes on the IPC cap slot like an endpoint
or shared-memory object. Frames stay owned by the allocating address
space (freed on dma_free/teardown as before); the token carries a `dead`
flag so a stale downstream handle can no longer bind a freed region.
- dma_alloc gains the dma_shareable flag: it returns a capability handle
in r8 and every region is tracked in a registry. A task's own regions
auto-bind into the devices it claims (its rings just work); foreign
buffers are bound explicitly.
- dma_bind / dma_unbind / handle_close syscalls (51-53). dma_bind maps a
held region (or shared-memory) capability into a claimed device's domain;
it is idempotent. handle_close reclaims a table slot (raised 16 -> 32).
- dma_free and task death unmap a region from every domain and invalidate
BEFORE its frames return to the allocator — the stale-IOTLB use-after-
free window, closed structurally.
Protocols (flag-day): block gains attach, usb-transfer gains dma_attach —
each carries a region capability on the cap slot. fat allocates its bounce
buffer shareable and attaches it; usb-storage allocates its transport
buffers shareable, attaches them to the controller, and forwards fat's
capability downstream; usb-xhci-bus binds and closes; virtio-gpu binds its
shared scanout surface. The physical addresses on the wire are unchanged
(identity IOVA), so no register-programming code moved.
Cross-process DMA (fat -> usb-storage -> xHC) now flows only through
delegated capabilities. iommu-usb-storage / iommu-usb-hid / iommu-fault
all green under per-grant enforcement; 104/104 overall (fail-open paths
unchanged).
Every user binary and the two device-logic library modules (pci, usb) now
`@import` the concern modules directly instead of aliasing through `runtime`:
runtime.ipc/process/time/service/input/block/display -> @import("<module>")
runtime.device / runtime.device_manager -> @import("driver")
runtime.fs -> @import("file-system")
runtime.Thread -> @import("thread").Thread
runtime.system.{write,writeRecord,klog*} -> logging.*
runtime.system.{sleep,timerOnce,wallClock,clock} -> time.*
runtime.system.{spawn*,kill,exit,yield,processes,...}-> process.*
runtime.system.{mmap,munmap,PROT_*} -> memory.*
runtime.dma.* / runtime.shared_memory.* / runtime.allocator -> memory.*
Each consumer keeps its own alias name (e.g. `const device = @import("driver")`),
so call sites are unchanged and there are no collisions with local `driver`
variables. build.zig now injects the concern modules into every user binary via
`default_imports`; pci/usb module import lists were updated to match.
The `runtime` and `system` shims remain for one more step (root.zig still uses
runtime); they are deleted in C5. Nothing but root.zig imports `runtime` now.
Verified: zig build, zig build test, and 17 QEMU cases (smoke, device-manager,
logger, fat-mount, fat-mutations, usb-storage, usb-hid, display-native,
virtio-gpu, input, thread-spawn, thread-mutex, process-kill, shared-memory,
driver-restart, acpi-ps2, pci-scan).
Finish the direct-import convention: a protocol is now aliased to its module
name in snake_case in every file that imports one — consumers and the runtime
client wrappers alike. This kills the last of the alias variety (the generic
`protocol`, plus `power` and `transfer`), so `device_manager_protocol.Hello`
means the same thing everywhere and grepping a module name finds all its uses.
Pure rename (identifier uses only; prose references left untouched via a
guarded pattern). 14 files, 299/299 lines.
zig build + test green; 16 QEMU cases pass (smoke, device-manager,
driver-restart, device-list, pci-scan, usb-hid, usb-storage, display-service,
display-native, display-reattach, input, acpi-ps2, vfs, fat-mount,
power-button, orderly-shutdown).
The USB class-driver transfer client was library/runtime/usb.zig, re-exported
as runtime.usb — which compiled the USB client and usb-transfer-protocol into
every user binary (init, fat, the compositor…), none of which speak USB. It is
bus-family logic, not core runtime.
Move it to its domain home, library/device/usb/usb.zig (module "usb"), alongside
the usb-abi and usb-ids data modules; fix its internal imports to go through the
runtime module; and re-export usb.abi / usb.ids so a class driver reaches the
whole USB domain through one import. runtime.usb and runtime's
usb-transfer-protocol import are removed; the three class drivers
(usb-hid keyboard/mouse, usb-storage) import module "usb" directly.
zig build + test green; usb-hid, usb-storage pass.
First step of the device-code reorganization (plan: group device code by
domain, split each domain into a shareable data module + a logic module).
This moves the pure-data modules — the enums, wire types, and taxonomies
that any layer including the kernel can import cheaply — out of
system/devices/ and into their domain home:
device-abi -> library/device/model/device-abi.zig
pci-class -> library/device/pci/pci-class.zig
usb-abi -> library/device/usb/usb-abi.zig
usb-ids -> library/device/usb/usb-ids.zig
acpi-ids -> library/device/acpi/acpi-ids.zig
aml/ -> library/device/acpi/aml/
Module names are unchanged, so this is a pure file move: only the
b.addModule paths and the host-test file list in build.zig change; no
importer is touched. system/devices/ now holds only the kernel-internal
device model (device-model, platform, acpi, device-tree, power).
The device *logic* (the pci Function helper, the usb transfer client) and
the kernel's cosmetic taxonomy dependency are handled in following commits.
zig build + zig build test green.
