rajamesandClaude Opus 5.5 75785fb025 refactor(kernel): Zuse's drive check without a VM
capsule_zuse_boot_check() makes the check capsule_zuse_boot_try_attach()
made -- the genesis marker, the drive's identity record (magic, version,
CRC-64, public key) -- and says HERS, GENESIS or NOT_HERS, with no VM;
capsule_zuse_boot_root_pubkey() reads the marker's key. try_attach and
load_root_pubkey call them; their behaviour and messages are unchanged.
The v4 boot will make the same check (identity gate plan, D1).

Shown on v3 (system=v3, amd64): the minted pair, "Zuse: identity
confirmed" and [zuse@Hera] ok> (logs/20261026-083603); a blank pair,
"Zuse: genesis minted onto attached thumbdrive" (logs/20261026-084729).

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.
