sk_v4_identity.c: a USB drive is this system's stick if its GPT has both StarshipOS partitions and
it is the disk the loader booted from (BootDisk's DiskGUID), or, when the boot was not from a
stick, the first such disk while none is attached. Then: its Artemis partition must carry a good
artemis_sig ('Artemis: the stick's signature is bad -- not used' otherwise), is attached first --
the first disk slot -- ('Artemis: the stick's partition attached'), Zuse's key is read from its
genesis marker, and its identity partition is checked and attached as before. Any other drive,
raw or GPT: 'USB: a drive that is not this system's stick -- not used'. On a pull the identity
partition is detached, then Artemis. sk_v4_identity_boot / sk_v4_run take the loader's BootDisk.
kernel_main.c: no virtio Artemis on the v4 path. kernel/Makefile: ARTDISK= attaches no virtio disk
(every QEMU target); ARTDISK stays for system=v3.
STICK.md 4 amended as ruled (R2): on v4 only this system's stick is used; users' drives minted by
this system's Zuse come with the users design after INSTALL. BRINGUP.md: Secure Boot off on every
PC (ruled 2026-10-28), RDRAND in QEMU, the SER5 smoke-test stick, A4 not on v4.
Tests: new stick_artemis (x3, no virtio disk), stick_zuse, two_sticks (replaces datastick),
artemis_unsigned, raw_ident; changed stick_boot, gpt_zuse, gpt_hotplug, midpull (replug) -- all
failed before, pass after (two test defects found and fixed: the signature's offset, the 63-char
log cut). Regression 20/20. Acceptance: amd64, aarch64, riscv64 to [zuse@Hera] ok>, POST 538/538,
dict_hash 0xfec8c47cfc6f437f; v4 suite and test-32 0 failures.
Plan: docs/v4.0.0/plans/2026-10-27-stick-4-one-disk.md, Task 4.

include/starkernel/
Headers for LithosAnanke, the bare-metal UEFI kernel (src/starkernel/).
Built only via Makefile.starkernel; gated by __STARKERNEL__ when shared
with hosted code.
uefi.h— UEFI protocol/type definitions consumed by the loader.elf64.h,elf_loader.h— ELF64 parsing and kernel-image loading.boot_info_offsets.h— struct-offset constants shared between the assembly bootstrap and the C boot path.arch.h,apic.h,timer.h— architecture init, APIC interrupt controller, timer (TSC/HPET/APIC, 100 Hz heartbeat).console.h,framebuffer.h,vt100.h— UART 16550 console, framebuffer driver, and VT100 terminal emulation over the framebuffer.pmm.h,vmm.h,kmalloc.h— physical memory manager (bitmap allocator), 4-level x86_64 paging, kernel heap allocator.pci.h,virtio_blk.h— PCI enumeration and the VirtIO block device driver (disk backend for the kernel block subsystem).capsule.h,capsule_birth.h,capsule_loader.h,capsule_run.h,capsule_vm_physics.h,capsule_generated.h— capsule system types, birth protocol, physics-runtime capsule bindings, and the build-time- generated capsule directory (seetools/mkcapsule.c).kernel_args.h,cmdline.h— boot-time kernel argument parsing (starforth.cfg/ command line).repl.h— kernel REPL.log.h,doe_log.h— kernel logging and DoE metrics logging.q48_16.h— kernel-build copy of Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.xxhash64.h— content-addressing hash used for capsule IDs.hal_memory.h— hardware-abstraction-layer memory interface.
Subdirectories:
hal/— top-level hardware-abstraction-layer interface.vm/— kernel VM subsystem headers (capsule arena, parity logging, bootstrap wiring).freestanding/— minimal libc-shim headers (assert.h,ctype.h,errno.h,inttypes.h,math.h,sched.h,signal.h,stdio.h,stdlib.h,string.h,time.h,sys/time.h,sys/types.h) for building shared VM code in the freestanding kernel environment, where no real libc is available.
