Robert Allan JamesandClaude Sonnet 5 9c8ad8f6ff Artemis Milestone 2e (in progress): xHCI Command Ring write path proven live
Enable Slot command TRB submitted via a new xhci_submit_command()/
xhci_cmd_enable_slot(), ring doorbell 0, confirmed by a real Command
Completion Event on all three architectures -- the first time this driver
has written a TRB rather than only reading the Event Ring (2d). Added the
Command Ring's previously-missing Link TRB (xHCI 1.2 spec sec 4.9.2) for
wraparound correctness.

Port Register connect/disconnect handling, slot-ID/context bookkeeping,
Address Device, and the callback surface into Section U's code are still
open -- this is the discriminating first step, not full 2e.

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.
