Turn the networking stubs into a working transport/application stack on top of
the existing L2/L3 (Ethernet/ARP/IPv4/ICMP) core.
UDP (net/ipv4/udp.c)
- Port-demux table with bound receive handlers, pseudo-header checksum,
ephemeral-port allocation, limited-broadcast send (0.0.0.0 -> 255.255.255.255
for DHCP before the interface has an address), and rx/tx/drop counters.
- Wired into the IPv4 receive path (IP_PROTO_UDP dispatch in net/core/net.c).
BSD sockets (net/core/socket.c)
- Real SOCK_DGRAM sockets backed by UDP: bind installs a UDP handler that fills
a per-socket receive ring; send/sendto and recv/recvfrom move datagrams;
ephemeral auto-bind, connect() memorises the peer. Socket table + I/O stats
exposed for introspection.
DNS resolver (net/ipv4/dns.c)
- Builds and parses real A-record queries over UDP/53 (label encoding,
compression-pointer aware answer walk), cache-first with TTL, static-hosts
and dotted-quad fast paths, and a bounded timeout that degrades to fallback
instead of hanging.
DHCP client (net/ipv4/dhcp.c)
- Full DISCOVER/OFFER/REQUEST/ACK handshake over UDP broadcast, option parsing
(mask/router/dns/lease/server-id), applies the lease to the primary
interface, bounded timeouts keep the static config on no response.
Fix (net/ipv4/dns_cache.c): the cache stored IPs as 0xAABBCCDD numeric while the
rest of the stack uses network-byte-order-in-memory (ip_parse/ip_to_str), so a
resolved address came back byte-swapped (nslookup github.com -> 100.121.82.140).
Seeds and dump now use ip_parse/ip_to_str; verified 140.82.121.4.
Userland (lazybox): live ifconfig (real interface + NIC counters, loopback),
netstat with live UDP bindings and transport stats, new `sockstat`, richer
nslookup. Verified in QEMU: boot clean on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i, login as SUB,
ping/nslookup/dhclient/netstat/sockstat all run; DHCP/DNS wire replies are
blocked by the sandbox's slirp but time out cleanly and fall back as designed.

GUI polish / HD:
- Default display mode raised to 1920x1080 (video=1920x1080); make run/vnc use
vgamem_mb=64 and -m 512M. The growable heap absorbs the larger backbuffer,
shadow and wallpaper (observed: one 16 MB growth to a 48 MB heap).
- Wallpaper: three-stop vertical gradient, a soft concentric-frame edge vignette
for depth, a finer faint grid, and a centred brand mark.
- Window chrome: brighter/saturated titlebar gradient when focused, an accent
underline on the active window, and larger/softer drop shadows.
- Default session windows are placed and sized for the HD work area.
- Live FPS pill in the taskbar tray (green/amber/red by rate); tray widened so
FPS + CPU trace + memory badge + clock no longer overlap.
Kernel:
- kernel/time/ktime.c + include/kernel/ktime.h (new): a unified monotonic
high-resolution clock that prefers the HPET (nanosecond) and falls back to the
100 Hz PIT tick. Wired ktime_init() into boot; drives the compositor's FPS
sampling. New `ktime` LazyBox applet reports the source and uptime.
Verified live (screenshotted): boots to 1920x1080, KTIME reports
"source: HPET, nanosecond resolution", the polished desktop renders with the
active-window accent and vignette, and the tray shows a live FPS reading.

Add three real platform device drivers (x86 hardware, ARM-stubbed):
- drivers/timer/hpet.c + include/drivers/hpet.h: High Precision Event Timer.
Maps the HPET block at the standard 0xFED00000, reads the femtosecond period
from the capability register, enables the main counter and exposes a
monotonic nanosecond time source (hpet_get_ns) far finer than the 100 Hz PIT.
- drivers/char/lpt.c + include/drivers/lpt.h: IBM PC parallel port (LPT1) with
the Centronics data/strobe handshake over ports 0x378/0x379/0x37A.
- drivers/char/nvram.c + include/drivers/nvram.h: MC146818 CMOS NVRAM read/write
over 0x70/0x71, preserving the NMI-disable bit, with checksum and hex dump.
Wired all three into the [5/14] device-enumeration boot step and added LazyBox
applets `hpet`, `lpt`, and `nvram`.
Verified live under QEMU (screenshotted): HPET reports 100 MHz / 3 comparators /
10 ns period and its counter advances ~1.4 s of real time between two `hpet`
runs; NVRAM dumps 128 bytes with a computed checksum; LPT1 detected at 0x378.

Kernel (NT I/O subsystem):
- kernel/nt/io.c + include/kernel/nt/io.h (new): DRIVER_OBJECTs with a
MajorFunction dispatch table, DEVICE_OBJECTs that can be stacked (attached),
and IRPs pushed down the stack via io_call_driver / completed with
io_complete_request. Ships three demo drivers: \Driver\Null (write sink,
EOF reads), \Driver\Zero (zero-filled reads), and \Driver\Monitor -- a filter
attached above \Device\Null that counts and forwards each IRP down the stack.
Wired into the [12/14] boot step.
- LazyBox `iodev` lists drivers/devices with the stack and IRP counters, then
runs a live demo: a WRITE IRP through the filtered Null stack and a READ from
the Zero device.
GUI:
- gui/gui_apps.c: "Registry Editor" -- navigate the NT \Registry hive tree,
click subkeys to descend and ".." to go up, with a values pane showing each
value's name/type/data. Registered in the app table (start menu).
Verified live in the GUI terminal (screenshotted): 3 drivers / 3 devices, the
NullMonitor->Null device stack, a 16-byte WRITE sunk through the filter
(status 0x0), and an 8-byte zeroed READ from \Device\Zero. Clean build on
x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; 0 panics / 0 OOM.

Kernel (NT Configuration Manager):
- kernel/nt/reg.c + include/kernel/nt/reg.h (new): a hive/key/value registry
rooted at "\Registry", with typed values (REG_SZ/DWORD/QWORD/BINARY/MULTI_SZ,
type codes matching Win32). reg_create_key/reg_open_key walk backslash paths;
setters/getters, enumeration, and value->string rendering. reg_init() seeds
\Registry\Machine (Hardware, System\CurrentControlSet\Control, Software\SUB-OS)
and \Registry\User\.DEFAULT. Wired into the [12/14] boot step.
- LazyBox `reg query|add|set|stats` explores and edits the registry.
GUI:
- gui/gui_apps.c: "Object Browser" -- a WinObj-style live tree view of the NT
object namespace (\), flattening directories/events/semaphores/mutants with
indentation, per-type colouring, ref/handle counts, live object/handle stats,
and click-to-scroll. Registered in the app table (start menu).
Verified live in the GUI terminal (screenshotted): registry reports 13 keys /
11 values; `reg query \Registry\Machine\Software\SUB-OS` lists Version,
BuildArch (REG_SZ), GrowableHeap/ObjectManager (REG_DWORD) and InstallCookie
(REG_QWORD) with correct types. Clean build on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; 0 panics.

Take inspiration from the Windows NT Executive and add its most iconic
subsystem to SUB-OS: a typed, reference-counted object namespace.
- kernel/nt/ob.c + include/kernel/nt/ob.h (new):
* Object Manager (Ob): typed objects (Directory/Event/Semaphore/Mutant) in a
hierarchical named namespace rooted at "\", with NT-style deletion once
handle_count and ref_count both reach zero (unless permanent).
* Handle table (Io/Ob): NT-shaped non-zero 4-aligned HANDLEs into a 256-slot
system table; open/reference/close with proper refcount transfer.
* Dispatcher (Ke): set/reset/test events (auto- and manual-reset) and
release/wait semaphores, poll-style.
* Software IRQL: PASSIVE/APC/DISPATCH/HIGH with raise/lower semantics.
* NTSTATUS result codes and NT_SUCCESS().
* ob_init() seeds the standard namespace (\BaseNamedObjects, \Device,
\ObjectTypes, \KernelObjects) plus a boot event and an I/O semaphore.
- Wired ob_init() into the [12/14] boot step; added kernel/nt/ob.c to CORE_SRCS.
- LazyBox: `objdir [\path]` walks the object namespace tree (WinObj-style);
`ntobj` prints Ob statistics and runs a live dispatcher/handle/IRQL demo.
Verified live in the GUI terminal (screenshotted): 7 seeded objects
(5 directories, 1 event, 1 semaphore), auto-reset event signalling, handle
close reclaiming the object, and PASSIVE->DISPATCH->PASSIVE IRQL transitions.

Rust kernel expansion:
- rust/src/compress/mod.rs (new): memory-safe PackBits-style run-length
encoding codec (rle_compress / rle_decompress) with C-ABI shims, registered
in lib.rs. C fallbacks added to rust_fallback.c so aarch64/armv8i match.
- include/kernel/rust.h: FFI declarations for the codec.
- LazyBox: new `rle <text>` applet that compresses, decompresses, prints the
ratio and verifies the round-trip is lossless.
GUI expansion:
- gui/gui_apps.c: "Rust Lab" app -- a live dashboard for the Rust subsystem.
Shows CRC-32C/Adler-32 of a sample, measured ChaCha20/SHA3-256/AES-128
throughput as scaled bars plus a composite score (benchmark run once at
launch and cached), and a live ChaCha20 CSPRNG byte stream refreshed
periodically. Per-window state freed on close.
- Registered "Rust Lab" (info icon) in the desktop app table and on the
desktop; desktop icon indices updated for the new entry.
Verified: clean build on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; boots through the SUB login to
the desktop with the new Rust Lab icon rendering (screenshotted); checksum
self-test prints, 0 panics / 0 OOM.

Rust kernel expansion:
- rust/src/checksum/mod.rs (new): memory-safe CRC-32C (Castagnoli), Adler-32,
and FNV-1a-64 with thin C-ABI shims. Registered in lib.rs with a boot-time
self-test (crc32c("SUB-OS")=0x61e96ce9, verified against a reference impl).
- include/kernel/rust.h: FFI declarations; rust/rust_fallback.c: matching C
fallbacks so aarch64/armv8i (no native rustc target) get identical results.
- LazyBox: new `cksum <text>` applet printing all three via the Rust engine.
GUI expansion:
- gui/gui_apps.c: Conway's Game of Life -- an interactive B3/S23 cellular
automaton with Play/Pause/Step/Random/Clear toolbar, click-to-toggle cells,
a live generation/population readout, and a board that scales with the
window. The Random button seeds from the Rust ChaCha20 CSPRNG. Toolbar and
cell input are gated on the MOUSE_DOWN edge so they do not re-fire while held.
- Registered "Life" (flask icon) in the desktop app table and on the desktop.
Verified: clean build on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; boots through the SUB login to

Kernel / memory:
- mm/kmalloc.c: fix "Heap: Out of memory" under the GUI. The desktop allocates
three full-screen 32-bit buffers (~11MB) which overflowed the fixed 16MB pool.
The heap now starts at 32MB and grows on demand from the PMM (16MB regions),
with region-safe coalescing (only merges physically adjacent blocks) so growth
never corrupts across separate PMM allocations. Adds heap_get_grow_count().
Build / run:
- Makefile: merge `run-gui` into `run` so `make run` boots into the graphical
desktop; add `run-headless` (serial-only via QEMU_CMD), bump guest RAM to
256M, update .PHONY and help.
Configure:
- scripts/kconfig/menuconfig.py: gate the curses UI behind isatty() on stdin and
stdout so non-interactive `make configure` stops emitting "nocbreak() returned
ERR" and falls cleanly through to the non-interactive writer.
GUI / userland:
- gui/gui_apps.c: rebuild the System Monitor from hardcoded values into live
telemetry -- real heap used/total/free with a colour-shifting bar, a scrolling
heap-utilisation graph, the grow counter, and real PMM RAM figures.
- lazybox `free`: report how many times the heap has grown.
Auth:
- Default login is now SUB / SUB (Kali-style username==password), seeded first
as the primary uid-0 account and set as the logged-in user; root kept for
compatibility. Hardcoded "root" defaults (whoami, su, passwd, ssh, sshd
session) updated to SUB.
Verified: clean build on x86_64/aarch64/armv8i; GUI boots with 0 OOM/0 panic;
auth engine initialises cleanly; `make configure` fallback is clean.

Bring the SUB-OS Graphical Desktop Environment (SUB-WM compositor, SUB-WT
widget toolkit, icon set, modal dialogs, terminal emulator and the desktop
apps) onto main alongside main's userland /sbin/init and framebuffer console.
Conflicts resolved:
- kernel/main.c: boot into gui_start_desktop() by default (unless nogui/text/
emergency/single), then fall back through fbcon + /sbin/init + shell when the
GUI session closes or a text console is requested. Splash raised by default
unless a text console is asked for. Kept main's fbcon include and the
weave_preempt_selftest path.
- Makefile: kept main's userland init compilation rules and kernel/elf.c,
kernel/exec.c in CORE_SRCS; retained the feature branch's gui/ sources.
- README.md: kept main's Weave Scheduler section and adopted the feature
branch's Boot Logo / Console Font / Framebuffer Console / GUI Desktop docs.
Verified: full x86_64 build links cleanly (kernel.elf + SUB-OS.img).

SUB-OS had a syscall table and user GDT descriptors but nothing that could
actually leave ring 0: lazybox and the shell run as kernel code, and
syscall_handler() was never reachable from a user program. This adds the
missing path end to end on x86_64.
Address spaces (arch/x86_64/mm/vmspace.c)
- The boot page tables identity-map the low 4 GB off PML4[0] and leave the
rest empty, so userland is given its own PML4 slot (512 GiB) rather than
holes punched in the kernel's 2 MB huge-page map. A process PML4 shares
entry 0 with the kernel and privately owns entry 1.
- Frames outside the identity map are refused rather than written through an
unmapped pointer; lifting that needs a recursive map or a higher-half
direct map, which is noted in the file.
ELF loader (kernel/elf.c)
- Validates ELF64/little-endian/ET_EXEC/machine, bounds-checks every program
header against both the image and the user address range, and lays PT_LOAD
segments into an address space. Frames arrive zeroed, so .bss is covered.
Ring transition (arch/x86_64/cpu/usermode.asm)
- user_enter() drops to ring 3 via iretq after scrubbing every GPR, and
user_return() unwinds back to it when the process exits, so exec looks like
a call that blocks until the program finishes.
Syscalls
- INT 0x80 installed at DPL 3 with the Linux x86_64 register convention.
The process gets its own kernel stack for the trap, because TSS.rsp0 must
not point at the stack user_enter() is standing on.
- Every user pointer is range-checked before use. The process page tables are
still live during a syscall, so without that check a program could pass a
kernel address and have write(2) dump kernel text to the console. The new
/sbin/init asserts both a wild pointer and a kernel pointer are rejected.
- write(2) to stdout/stderr routes through the new console_write(), which
reuses printk's routing so output reaches serial and the framebuffer
console rather than only the VGA text buffer.
Faults
- A ring 3 exception now kills that process and reports CR2 instead of
panicking the machine.
Userland (userland/init/)
- /sbin/init is a real freestanding static executable, linked at the user
base and embedded in the kernel image by scripts/mkblob.py. It reports its
pid, verifies .bss was zeroed and .data is writable, checks the two pointer
rejections, and exits.
aarch64 and armv8i keep building: the loader and exec path are portable, and
those ports get honest vmspace stubs that fail cleanly rather than pretending
to run a program with kernel privileges.
Verified under QEMU: init loads at 0x80004000a0, reports pid 1, .bss zeroed,
.data writable, both bad pointers rejected, and exits 0 back into the shell.

Boot logo (init/bootlogo.c, init/logo_data.c, scripts/mklogo.py):
The logo appears in two forms because the framebuffer does not exist for the
first third of boot. An ASCII rendition goes to the text console and serial
line from the first moments; once the video driver is up at step [5/14] the
real bitmap takes over as a graphical splash with a progress bar tied to the
actual boot stages.
The asset is 4-bit palette indexed, so 160x160 pixels cost 12.5 KB instead of
100 KB, and carries a transparency mask so the mark composites onto the
gradient rather than stamping a flat rectangle over it. scripts/mklogo.py
regenerates init/logo_data.c from the source PNG.
Boot reaches the desktop in well under a second, so the splash is held for a
minimum duration and the bar sweeps to 100% during the hold; without that the
logo would flash past unseen. `splashtime=<ms>` tunes it and `nosplash`,
`nogui` or `text` skip it.
Bootloader (boot/stage2.asm):
stage2 staged the whole kernel in conventional RAM before copying it to 1 MB,
which capped the kernel at roughly 576 KB before the load ran into video
memory at 0xA0000. The logo pushed it over that line and the kernel stopped
booting. Each 32 KB chunk now goes into one fixed low buffer and is copied
straight to its final address, using unreal mode for the 32-bit reach. The
ceiling is now the image itself, 1.375 MB.
Console font (lib/font8x8.c):
fb_draw_char was a stub that ignored its character argument and drew a filled
rectangle, which is why the splash rendered its text as solid blocks. It now
renders real glyphs, and the table it uses is shared: the framebuffer console,
the canvas rasterizer and the desktop compositor had three divergent private
copies, two of which still carried the `// \` line-continuation defect.
printk console sink (kernel/printk.c):
printk output can be redirected to a callback, so a caller can run a subsystem
that reports via printk and capture what it printed. Serial and the dmesg ring
still see everything, which keeps a captured run debuggable.
Shell builtins (userland/lazybox/shell.c):
The builtin chain is extracted into shell_execute_builtin(), so the kernel TTY
and the desktop terminal accept the same vocabulary instead of the GUI seeing
only the applet table. Callers that cannot be suspended pass allow_blocking =
false to refuse the animating ones.

Expands the kernel-and-TTY core with the primitives the higher layers have
been missing, plus an in-kernel harness that proves they work.
Data structures (lib/):
- rbtree.c: Linux-compatible red-black tree with parent pointers, full
insert/erase rebalancing, in-order iteration and an invariant validator.
- kfifo.c: power-of-two byte ring with free-running indices, so the wrap
path costs one mask instead of a branch per byte.
- hashtable.c: separately-chained table with FNV-1a hashing, string or
u64 keys, and rehash-on-growth at a 3/4 load factor.
Kernel subsystems:
- kernel/wait.c: wait queues and one-shot completion barriers, backed by a
static sleeper pool so a blocking path never re-enters the allocator.
- kernel/futex.c: 32-bucket futex hash with value re-check, requeue, and an
fmutex_t sleeping mutex built on the uncontended-fastpath protocol.
- kernel/rcu.c: tiny RCU with reader nesting, deferred callbacks, kfree_rcu
and rcu_assign_pointer/rcu_dereference publish barriers.
- mm/page_cache.c: write-back block page cache, 4 KB pages indexed by
(device, page), CLOCK second-chance eviction and dirty write-back.
- kernel/ktest.c: KUnit-style harness with 6 built-in suites, 21 cases and
735 assertions covering every subsystem above (all passing under QEMU).
LazyBox userland:
- coreutils.c: sort, uniq, cut, tr, rev, tac, nl, seq, diff, xxd, du,
factor, sum and truncate, reading through the VFS and handling the
zero-length synthetic nodes that procfs and sysfs expose.
- ktest, rcuinfo, futexinfo, waitinfo and pagecache diagnostics applets.
