Claude Code keeps per-project memory at <home>/.claude/projects/<key>/,
where <key> is the project's absolute path with every separator and the
drive colon turned into a dash. That makes it both rename-fragile and
machine-specific, and this project has hit each of those once:
- D:\DEV\Schunix -> D:\DEV\SchOS changed the key, and 43 memories were
invisible until moved across by hand.
- Development happens from Windows and from Linux, and each looks in a
different place for the same checkout.
Committing .claude/memory/ fixes both -- git carries it across renames
and between hosts -- and `import` puts it wherever the local machine
expects. .claude/settings.local.json stays ignored: those are per-machine
permissions.
The colon maps to a dash rather than being dropped. Deleting it gives
D-DEV-SchOS, which matches nothing and silently finds zero memories; that
was the first attempt. On Git Bash the key comes from `cygpath -w`,
because Claude Code is a Windows program and sees D:\DEV\SchOS, not
/d/DEV/SchOS.

Unix domain sockets (`kernel/net/unix.c`, `include/socket.h`, `kernel/sys/sys_net.c`)
|
|
and raw input events (`kernel/dev/input.c`, `include/input.h`) are both done and
|
|
verified — `tools\bootcheck.ps1 -Sock` and `-Evdev`.
|
|
|
|
**One lock for the whole socket table, deliberately.** A pipe gets a lock per
|
|
pipe because every operation touches one object; a socket operation touches
|
|
two, and per-socket locks need an ordering rule every path obeys or they
|
|
deadlock. Worse, a reader testing `peer_closed` under its own lock while the
|
|
closer sets it under the peer's has no interlock and sleeps through its own
|
|
wakeup. Don't "optimise" this into per-socket locks.
|
|
|
|
**Socket names live in a table, not the filesystem.** `ls -l /tmp/schcom` will
|
|
not show an `s` and `unlink()` of a socket path returns ENOENT. Fixing it
|
|
properly means a new inode type through both filesystems, iget, dirlookup and
|
|
stat — a VFS change, not a socket change. Everything that matters works.
|
|
|
|
`connect()` deliberately does **not** wait for `accept()`. A queued connection
|
|
is already established on Unix; blocking would deadlock any server that
|
|
connects to itself.
|
|
|
|
The syscalls had real Linux numbers assigned (41/49/50/43/42 and friends).
|
|
They were `NO_LINUX` stubs before, which meant a musl program calling
|
|
`socket()` got "bad syscall" from the ABI translation and never reached the
|
|
stub at all — same trap as [[schunix-shm-and-mmap]]. `shutdown` is registered
|
|
as `sockshutdown` because Schunix already has a native `shutdown` that powers
|
|
the machine off.
|
|
|
|
**evdev:** `/dev/input/event0` (keyboard) and `event1` (mouse), major 7, Linux
|
|
`struct input_event` layout. Fed by the PS/2 keyboard, the PS/2 mouse and USB
|
|
HID. The console keeps its own path — both consumers see every key, so keys
|
|
pressed during a test also land on the shell's input line.
|
|
|
|
Two things that are not obvious:
|
|
- Below 0x54 a Linux keycode **is** the AT set-1 scancode, so the PS/2 path
|
|
needs no table. USB HID does need one (`hid_keycode[]`), because HID numbers
|
|
keys by position and the AT set numbers them by matrix wiring order.
|
|
- A full event ring drops the **oldest** event. Dropping the newest is the
|
|
obvious choice and it is wrong: the event most likely lost is a key release,
|
|
and a lost release leaves the key held down forever.
