Follow-up to the monorepo re-org. Suite 35/35 plus host tests green.
POSIX compatibility is now its own library, library/posix/ (unistd, stdio),
layered strictly over the runtime — it calls the runtime's IPC/heap, never
system calls directly. The runtime is now POSIX-free (the danos-native
application ABI). The VFS wire protocol is danos-native throughout
(Stat -> FileStatus, .stat -> .status, O_CREAT -> create); the POSIX layer
maps the POSIX spellings at the boundary. The coding standard's ABI-name
exception is scoped to one place: a file is allowed POSIX spellings only if it
lives under library/posix/ — everywhere else, danos naming with no exception.
Naming fixes, all mechanical:
- initrd -> initial-ramdisk: the source file, the module, the tool
(make-initial-ramdisk.py), the artifact (initial-ramdisk.img, including the
bootloader's load path), and the identifiers.
- system/kernel/device-service.zig -> devices-broker.zig: it is ring-0 kernel
code (the trusted device table + claim capability), not a ring-3 service. The
future user-space device *manager* (policy) will live in system/services/.
- Dropped the daemon `d` suffix: hpetd -> hpet, busd -> bus. A driver lives in
system/drivers/, so the folder already says what it is; encoding the role in
the name too is redundant. The coding standard drops that exception.
- system/devices/aml/interp.zig -> interpreter.zig (the type was already
Interpreter).
Two driver-model milestones plus a tree-wide naming pass. Suite 35/35
(QEMU) + host tests green.
M11 — IRQ-as-IPC. A ring-3 driver now sleeps until its device interrupts
it. New src/kernel/irq.zig: per-GSI endpoint bindings, comptime per-vector
trampolines, dispatch = mask GSI -> LAPIC EOI -> notifyLocked, all under one
lock region. irq_bind/irq_ack syscalls, gated by the device claim like
mmio_map. interruptDispatch no longer EOIs — each handler owns its EOI,
because a level line must be masked before it is acknowledged (irq_ack is
the unmask). Bindings are keyed on the owning task and released on exit
(a shared endpoint's siblings survive). hpetd rewritten interrupt-driven.
Tests: hpet (rewritten, reads back the I/O APIC routing) and irqfree.
M12 — bus drivers. DeviceDesc gains a parent, making the device table a
tree. dev_register (device_register) lets a process publish children below
a device it claimed; the kernel enforces resource containment (a child's
resources must nest in its parent's), so a descriptor can't fabricate a
window over kernel RAM. Descriptor copied in via copyFromUser (physmap
walk — an unmapped user pointer fails the call instead of faulting the
kernel). Per-parent child cap bounds table exhaustion. sbin/busd.zig is a
worked bus driver. Test: bus.
Naming — per docs/coding-standards.md: non-acronym abbreviations spelled
out (message, descriptor, device_service, scheduler, runtime, physical,
interpreter, ...); acronyms kept (IPC, MMIO, DMA, HCD, ...); files are
kebab-case (ipc-synchronous.zig, device-service.zig, vfs-protocol.zig, ...).
Exceptions: POSIX/C ABI names and Zig idioms (init/len/ptr) kept. Module
collisions resolved by specific naming (config -> parameters, device.zig
alias -> device_model). AML op/Op disambiguated: op = opcode, Op =
operation; per-opcode parse handlers renamed opX -> parseX.
New driver docs: drivers.md, driver-model.md (bus/class/HCD shapes + the
proposed M13–M16 ABI), coding-standards.md.
