Neither is Fedora-specific. A different host and a freshly built
userland simply drove code that Windows never reached.
tools/mkfs.c did not compile at all. The DT_UNKNOWN/DT_DIR/DT_REG
fallbacks sat above <dirent.h>, so on glibc -- which spells them as
enumerators -- the #ifndef asked before the header was read, always
answered "missing", and then the header's own enum expanded to
`enum { 0 = 0, ... }`. Move the fallbacks below the include. The
include cannot move up instead: it has to follow the #undef that ends
the `#define dirent schfs_dirent` block.
getstackpcs() page-faulted. It dereferenced rbp[1] without validating
rbp, and the guard rejected 0xffffffff -- dead code on x86-64, already
caught by the KERNBASE test -- while the value that actually turns up
is all-ones, which is above KERNBASE. rbp[1] then wrapped to 0x7 and
took trap 14. `cp` panicked the kernel every time. Bound rbp from
above and require 8-byte alignment.
That second one masks other bugs: getcallerpcs() runs on every lock
acquisition and again from the trap handler, so a walker that can
fault replaces a real diagnosis with a bogus one.
Baseline on the Fedora laptop is now green: make ports, make,
make schfs-check including the round-trip that had never run, and
bootcheck at 27/27 plus 108 [ok] across the extended suites.

boot/bios/ now holds the MBR, the El Torito stub and the real-mode stage
2; boot/uefi/ is empty and documented.
Separate directories rather than #ifdefs, because the two share almost
nothing. A BIOS loader lives in 16-bit real mode, reaches the firmware
through software interrupts, and walks itself up into long mode. A UEFI
loader is a 64-bit PE that the firmware has already placed in long mode
with paging on, calling services through a table of function pointers.
What they do share is the hand-off contract, which boot/README.md now
writes down: ELF segments placed, long mode, a 24-byte-entry memory map
at E820_MAP_ADDR, framebuffer geometry at VBE_INFO_ADDR.
That contract is the point of documenting it now. UEFI's GetMemoryMap
returns EFI_MEMORY_DESCRIPTORs, and the right move is to translate them
into the entries kernel/arch/x86_64/e820.c already parses rather than
teach the kernel a second format.
Build output paths under $(BUILD)/boot are unchanged; only sources moved.
Removes the "-unix" element and with it any trademark exposure to The
Open Group.
The split follows the ecosystem layout: SchOS is the system, and the
kernel has its own name. Kernel-identity strings are the only places
that take SchIFT -- uname(2) sysname, /proc/version, and the two licence
sentences that say "kernel" outright. That is what every Unix does here:
`uname -s` on Linux reports the kernel, not the distribution. Everything
a user reads as the product -- panic screen, boot menu, error prefixes,
docs, LICENSE, NOTICE -- is SchOS.
schunix.img is schos.img, the logo assets and the musl TLS patch are
renamed, and __SCHUNIX__ is __SCHOS__ (the define and the patch that
consumes it moved together).
Two things the rename broke, both found by the bootcheck suite:
- shmtest wrote "SCHUNIX-MMAP-OK" with a hardcoded length of 15 and
compared it back by hand-counted offsets (m[3]=='U', m[14]=='K').
The shorter marker left the write running two bytes past the literal
and the compare reading past the data, failing a file-backed mmap
that was working correctly. Now written and compared through one
constant with sizeof.
- bootcheck asserted a 31-byte file after appending to
"hello-from-schunix"; the shorter string makes it 29.
Both are the same mistake: a string literal whose length is written out
somewhere else. Full suite green -- base, Tty, Ps, Sock, Fb, Usb, Evdev.
An x86-64 operating system built from xv6, now largely rewritten: SMP,
a copy-on-write root filesystem (SchFS), PCI/USB/virtio drivers, a TTF
rasteriser, and a Linux-numbered syscall ABI.
No history before this point -- the tree was never under version control.
This commit exists so the rename that follows has something to undo to.
