E1000 networking overhaul — replace polling with proper interrupt-driven I/O:
1. RX interrupt-driven:
- IRQ handler (e1000_irq_handler) now signals e1000_rx_sem on
RXT0/RXDMT0/RXO events instead of being a no-op.
- Dedicated kernel thread (e1000_rx_thread) blocks on the
semaphore, drains all available packets via e1000_recv(),
and delivers them to lwIP via tcpip_input().
- Latency: immediate wake on packet arrival (was 20ms polling).
2. TX non-blocking:
- e1000_send() checks the DD bit immediately and returns -1 if
the descriptor is not ready (was: busy-wait up to 100K iters).
- lwIP's linkoutput callback returns ERR_IF on ring-full.
3. Idle loop cleanup:

- Auto-detects filesystem (tries diskfs, fat, ext2 in order)
- Mounts at /disk on success
- Processed after ATA init, before /etc/fstab parsing

fix: hold sched_lock through context_switch to prevent timer race
Root cause of rare kernel panics with EIP on the kernel stack:
When schedule() was called from process context (waitpid, sleep),
irq_flags had IF=1. spin_unlock_irqrestore() re-enabled interrupts
BEFORE context_switch(). If a timer fired in this window:
1. current_process was already set to 'next' (line 835)
2. But we were still executing on prev's stack
3. Nested schedule() treated 'next' as prev, saved prev's ESP
into next->sp — CORRUPTING next->sp
4. Future context_switch to 'next' loaded the wrong stack offset,
popping garbage registers and a garbage return address
5. EIP ended up pointing into the kernel stack → PAGE FAULT
Fix (three parts):
1. schedule(): move context_switch BEFORE spin_unlock_irqrestore.
After context_switch we are on the new process's stack, and its
saved irq_flags correctly releases the lock.
2. arch_kstack_init: set initial EFLAGS to 0x002 (IF=0) instead of
0x202 so popf in context_switch doesn't enable interrupts while
the lock is held.
3. thread_wrapper: release sched_lock and enable interrupts, since
new processes arrive here via context_switch's ret (bypassing
the spin_unlock_irqrestore after context_switch).
Also: remove get_next_ready_process() which incorrectly returned
fallback processes not in rq_active, causing rq_dequeue to corrupt
the runqueue bitmap. Inlined the logic correctly in schedule().
Verified: 20/20 boots without 'ring3' — zero panics.

feat: Linux-like kernel command line parser with /proc/cmdline
Implement a proper kernel command line parsing system modeled after
Linux's cmdline triaging:
1. Kernel params: recognized 'key=value' tokens (init=, root=,
console=, loglevel=) are consumed by the kernel.
2. Kernel flags: recognized plain tokens (quiet, ring3, nokaslr,
single, noapic, nosmp) are consumed by the kernel.
3. Init envp: unrecognized 'key=value' tokens become environment
variables for the init process.
4. Init argv: unrecognized plain tokens (no '=' or '.') become
command-line arguments for the init process.
5. '--' separator: everything after it goes to init untouched.
6. First token (kernel path) is always skipped.
New files:
- include/kernel/cmdline.h: API (cmdline_parse, cmdline_get,
cmdline_has, cmdline_init_path, cmdline_init_argv/envp, cmdline_raw)
- src/kernel/cmdline.c: implementation with static storage
Changes:
- init.c: calls cmdline_parse() early, uses cmdline_has('ring3')
instead of the old cmdline_has_token() (removed)
- arch_platform.c: uses cmdline_init_path() for init binary path
(supports 'init=/path/to/init' from GRUB cmdline)
- procfs.c: added /proc/cmdline file (readable by userspace)
The 'ring3' parameter is no longer required for stable boot (the
scheduler bug causing panics without it was fixed in the previous
commit). It now only controls the inline ring3 test.

fix: remove killed READY processes from runqueue before marking ZOMBIE
Root cause of intermittent kernel panic (PAGE FAULT at 0x0, ESP=0):
When process_kill(SIGKILL) killed a READY process (sitting in
rq_active or rq_expired), it set state=ZOMBIE but did NOT remove
the process from the runqueue. Later, the parent reaped the ZOMBIE
via waitpid → process_reap_locked → kfree(p), freeing the struct.
But the freed pointer remained in the runqueue. rq_pick_next()
returned the dangling pointer, schedule() read sp=0 from freed
heap memory, and context_switch loaded ESP=0 → PAGE FAULT.
The 'ring3' cmdline flag masked this bug by changing scheduler
timing: with ring3, the BSP entered usermode immediately via iret,
altering the sequence of context switches such that the ZOMBIE was
typically dequeued before being reaped.
Fix:
- Add rq_remove_if_queued() helper: safely searches both rq_active
and rq_expired for a process at its priority level before calling
rq_dequeue()
- process_kill(SIGKILL): dequeue READY victims before setting ZOMBIE
- process_reap_locked(): dequeue as safety net before freeing

fix: add IOAPIC route for IRQ 15 (secondary ATA channel)
The secondary ATA channel (IRQ 15, vector 47) was not routed through
the IOAPIC. After the multi-drive ATA refactor, ata_pio_init() probes
the secondary channel, which can generate IRQ 15 (e.g. IDENTIFY to
QEMU's ATAPI CD-ROM). Without a proper IOAPIC route:
1. The interrupt was lost (PIC disabled, IOAPIC not routing it)
2. The IOAPIC pin 15 remained in an undefined state
3. Depending on timing, this could cause spurious behavior
This was the likely root cause of intermittent kernel panics/reboots
when booting without the 'ring3' cmdline flag — the timing difference
meant the secondary ATA probe's unhandled IRQ could manifest as an
unrecoverable interrupt state.

secondary/master (hdc), secondary/slave (hdd)
- New API: ata_pio_init() probes both channels, ata_pio_read28/write28
take a drive ID parameter, ata_pio_drive_present() query
- ata_name_to_drive/ata_drive_to_name helpers for device name mapping
- Per-channel I/O ports (0x1F0/0x3F6 primary, 0x170/0x376 secondary)
- Master/slave selection (0xE0/0xF0 LBA mode bits)
- Floating bus detection (0xFF = no controller)
- ATAPI rejection (non-zero LBA1/LBA2 after IDENTIFY)
2. ATA DMA driver (ata_dma.h, hal/x86/ata_dma.c):
- Per-channel DMA state: separate PRDT, bounce buffer, spinlock, IRQ
handler for primary (BAR4+0) and secondary (BAR4+8)
- KVA map extended: 4 pages (PRDT+buf x 2 channels) at 0xC0320000-3
- PCI Bus Master probe factored out and cached (single PCI lookup)
- DMA-aware IRQ handlers for both IRQ 14 and IRQ 15
3. Filesystem drivers updated to accept drive parameter:
- fat_mount(int drive, uint32_t lba) — stores drive in g_fat struct
- ext2_mount(int drive, uint32_t lba) — stores drive in g_ext2 struct
- diskfs_create_root(int drive) — static g_diskfs_drive for all I/O
- persistfs_create_root(int drive) — delegates to diskfs on same drive
4. Mount system redesigned — no more auto-mount of disk FS:
- init.c: calls ata_pio_init() once, then parses /etc/fstab
- Fstab format: /dev/hdX /mountpoint fstype options
- init_mount_fs() helper reusable by both fstab and kconsole
- rootfs/etc/fstab created with default diskfs+persistfs on hda
5. kconsole mount command:
- 'mount -t <type> /dev/<hd> <mountpoint>' for manual mounting
- 'lsblk' lists all 4 ATA drives and their detection status

1. Consolidate redundant PANIC + kconsole banners into a single
message shown by kconsole_enter(). Previously both main.c and
kconsole.c printed separate banners.
2. Fix critical VFS mount ordering bug: diskfs, FAT, and ext2 all
share the same ATA primary master disk at LBA 0. Previously
diskfs_create_root() was called first, and its auto-format
(diskfs_super_load) would overwrite LBA 2-3 if DISKFS_MAGIC
was not found -- destroying any ext2 superblock at the same
location. Now the probe order is:
a) ext2 (checks magic 0xEF53 at byte 1080)
b) FAT (validates BPB fields at LBA 0)
c) diskfs (fallback, may auto-format blank disks)
Only one FS is mounted per device -- they are mutually exclusive.
3. Make ata_pio_init_primary_master() idempotent with a static
guard flag so it can be called from both init.c and
diskfs_create_root() without double-initializing.
4. Increase VFS mount table from 8 to 16 slots to prevent
-ENOSPC when adding future mount points.
Bug fixes:
1. dmesg pollution from mem/ls/cat: added klog_set_suppress() flag
in console.c. kconsole wraps command execution with suppression
so interactive output doesn't contaminate the kernel log buffer.
2. UTF-8 em dash rendering as garbage on VGA: replaced all UTF-8
em dashes in output strings (main.c, init.c) with ASCII '--'.
VGA text mode only supports CP437, not UTF-8.
3. PANIC message appearing in dmesg: changed from kprintf() to
console_write() so the emergency banner goes to screen/serial
but NOT to the kernel log ring buffer.
Features:
1. VGA scrollback buffer (200 lines): lines that scroll off the
top of the screen are saved in a circular buffer. Shift+PgUp
scrolls back half-page, Shift+PgDn scrolls forward. Any new
output auto-returns to live view (like Linux).
2. Command history (16 entries): Up/Down arrow keys navigate
through previous commands. Duplicate suppression. Current
line is saved/restored when navigating.
3. Full line editing: Left/Right arrows move cursor, Home/End
jump to start/end, Delete key, insert-at-cursor mode.
Emacs keybindings: Ctrl-A (home), Ctrl-E (end), Ctrl-U
(kill line), Ctrl-K (kill to end).
4. Extended keyboard driver: HAL x86 keyboard now tracks shift
state, handles 0xE0 extended scancodes, emits VT100 escape
sequences for arrow keys/Home/End/PgUp/PgDn/Delete. Shift
scancode map added for uppercase letters and symbols.
Shift+PgUp/PgDn calls vga_scroll_back/fwd directly.
5. Serial input works with readline: VT100 sequences from
terminal emulators are parsed by the same escape state
machine, so -serial stdio now supports full line editing.
1. Double echo: TTY keyboard callback was echoing characters via
tty_output_char() AND kconsole was echoing via console_write().
Fix: keyboard_set_callback(0) detaches TTY on kconsole entry.
2. Backspace printing garbage: VGA vga_put_char() only handled \n,
treating \b as a visible glyph. Fix: full control char support
in vga_put_char — \b moves cursor back, \r resets column, \t
advances to next tab stop, non-printable chars filtered.
3. Enter printing garbage: same root cause as #2 — \r was not
handled by VGA. Now handled properly.
4. Cursor not tracking: VGA had no hardware cursor update. Added
hal_video_set_cursor() HAL function using CRTC registers
0x3D4/0x3D5 on x86, called after every character output.
5. Clear screen broken: was using ANSI escape \033[2J which VGA
can't parse. Added vga_clear() function, kconsole calls it
directly.
6. dmesg contamination: kconsole prompts and help text used
kprintf() which appends to klog ring buffer. Introduced
kc_puts() wrapper over console_write() for interactive output
that should NOT appear in dmesg.
7. Scroll (Shift+PageUp/Down): deferred — requires scrollback
buffer (significant feature). Documented as known limitation.
8. Serial input not working (-serial stdio): kgetc() only read
from PS/2 keyboard via keyboard_read_blocking(). Added
hal_uart_try_getc() to HAL (poll UART LSR data-ready bit),
rewrote kgetc() to poll both keyboard and UART in a loop.
9. ring3 command: removed from kconsole (useless without initrd
in emergency mode). Replaced with proper ls command using
readdir to list directory contents.
HAL changes (all 4 architectures):
- hal_video_set_cursor(row, col) — x86 uses VGA CRTC I/O ports

fix: kconsole fallback not activating when initrd is missing
Root cause: init_start() always called arch_platform_start_userspace()
even when fs_root was NULL. The userspace init thread was created
asynchronously and returned 0 (success) to kernel_main(), so the
'init_ret < 0' check never triggered kconsole_enter(). The init
thread would later discover fs_root==NULL, print '[ELF] fs_root
missing' and hang — but kconsole was never entered.
Fix: init_start() now checks fs_root before attempting to start
userspace. If no root filesystem exists (e.g. missing initrd module
in GRUB), it returns -1 immediately, triggering the kconsole
emergency console fallback in kernel_main().
Also added clear panic message before kconsole entry (similar to
Linux's 'Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs').

feat: proper uid/gid + euid/egid implementation with permission enforcement
Kernel:
- struct process: added euid/egid (effective uid/gid) fields
- process_fork_create: now inherits uid/gid/euid/egid from parent
(previously left at 0 from memset)
- process_clone_create: also inherits euid/egid
- setuid/setgid: permission checks — only euid==0 can set arbitrary
uid/gid; unprivileged processes can only set to their real uid/gid
- New syscalls: geteuid (88), getegid (89), seteuid (90), setegid (91)
- vfs_check_permission(): checks owner/group/other rwx bits against
process euid/egid and file uid/gid/mode
- open() now calls vfs_check_permission() for R/W/RW access
- chmod: only root or file owner can change mode
- chown: only root can change ownership
- Added EACCES (13) to errno.h

feat: include doom.elf in initrd when built
The Makefile now conditionally includes user/doom/doom.elf in the
initrd as bin/doom.elf if it exists. This allows DOOM to be
launched from the AdrOS shell via: /bin/doom.elf -iwad /path/to/doom1.wad
The DOOM build is optional — the main kernel build is unaffected

feat: guard pages for kernel stacks — detect overflow via page fault
Replaced kmalloc(4096) kernel stack allocation with a dedicated
kstack_alloc() that uses a virtual address region (0xC8000000+)
with guard pages. Each stack slot is 2 pages:
If a kernel stack overflows, the CPU hits the unmapped guard page
and triggers a page fault instead of silently corrupting heap
metadata. This eliminates the class of heap corruption bugs caused
by deep syscall call chains or large stack frames.
Added userspace wrappers required for the DOOM port:
- sys/mman.h + mman.c: mmap() and munmap() for framebuffer mapping
- sys/ioctl.h + ioctl.c: ioctl() for framebuffer info queries
- time.h + time.c: nanosleep() and clock_gettime() for frame timing
All wrappers use the existing INT 0x80 syscall interface.

feat: /dev/kbd raw scancode device for game input (DOOM)
Added raw scancode ring buffer to the keyboard driver. The HAL
keyboard layer now fires a second callback with the unprocessed
scancode byte (both key-press and key-release events).
- hal/keyboard.h: added hal_keyboard_scan_cb_t and setter
- hal/x86/keyboard.c: fires g_scan_cb before ASCII translation
- drivers/keyboard.c: raw scancode buffer + /dev/kbd device node
registered via devfs (non-blocking read returns raw scancodes)
- init.c: calls keyboard_register_devfs() after devfs is mounted
DOOM can now open /dev/kbd and read raw PS/2 scancodes to detect
key press/release events without TTY line buffering.

feat: /dev/fb0 framebuffer device + fd-backed mmap support
Added /dev/fb0 device node registered via devfs by vbe.c:
- ioctl: FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO (resolution, bpp), FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO
(phys addr, pitch, size)
- mmap: maps physical framebuffer into userspace with NOCACHE flags
- read/write: direct pixel buffer access via offset
Extended syscall_mmap_impl to support fd-backed mmap: when
MAP_ANONYMOUS is not set, the file descriptor's node->mmap callback
is invoked. This enables userspace to mmap /dev/fb0 for direct
framebuffer access (required for DOOM).
Marked syscall_mmap_impl as noinline to prevent GCC from merging it
into syscall_handler (4KB kernel stack limit).

refactor: add ioctl/mmap callbacks to fs_node_t, decouple ioctl dispatch
Added ioctl and mmap function pointers to fs_node_t for generic
device dispatch. Refactored syscall_ioctl_impl to call node->ioctl

- tty.c: added tty_devfs_ioctl wrapper, set on console/tty nodes
- pty.c: added pty_slave_ioctl_fn wrapper, set on all slave nodes

This prepares the VFS for /dev/fb0 and other devices that need
ioctl and mmap support.

refactor: extract generic VMM wrappers from x86 implementation to src/mm/vmm.c
Moved vmm_protect_range(), vmm_as_activate(), and vmm_as_map_page()
from src/arch/x86/vmm.c to src/mm/vmm.c. These functions contain only
architecture-independent logic (looping over pages, delegating to HAL
for address space switching).
The x86-specific VMM code (PAE page table manipulation, recursive
mapping, CoW handling, address space create/destroy/clone) remains
in src/arch/x86/vmm.c where it belongs.
This ensures new architectures only need to implement the core
primitives (vmm_init, vmm_map_page, vmm_unmap_page, vmm_set_page_flags,
vmm_as_create_kernel_clone, vmm_as_destroy, vmm_as_clone_user,
vmm_as_clone_user_cow, vmm_handle_cow_fault) and get the wrapper

refactor: decouple DevFS from TTY/PTY drivers via device registration API
Added devfs_register_device() API so device drivers register their own
fs_node_t with DevFS. DevFS is now a generic device registry that
dispatches through function pointers — it no longer includes tty.h or
pty.h and has zero knowledge of TTY/PTY internals.
- tty.c: registers /dev/console and /dev/tty with VFS-compatible wrappers
- pty.c: registers /dev/ptmx and /dev/pts (with finddir/readdir moved
from devfs.c)
- devfs.c: only owns built-in devices (null, zero, random, urandom);
all other devices come from the registry
This enables any future driver to register device nodes without
modifying devfs.c.

fix: add timeout to UART busy-wait in hal_uart_putc()
The UART transmit loop now gives up after ~100k iterations instead
of spinning forever. This prevents the kernel from hanging with
the console spinlock held if the UART hardware is unresponsive,
which would otherwise deadlock all CPUs attempting kprintf (including
panic and debug output paths).
PID 0 previously used the boot stack from assembly (_stack_top),
which is not heap-managed. This caused two issues:
- TSS esp0 was not updated when switching to PID 0 (kernel_stack
was NULL, so the guard in schedule() skipped the update)
- If PID 0 were ever reaped or its stack freed, it would corrupt
memory since the boot stack is not a kmalloc'd block
Now process_init() allocates a 4KB kernel stack via kmalloc and
sets TSS esp0 to its top, matching the pattern used by all other
processes.

fix: save/restore EFLAGS in context_switch instead of forcing sti after schedule()
context_switch now uses pushf/popf to properly save and restore the
EFLAGS register (including the IF bit) across context switches.
This replaces the unconditional hal_cpu_enable_interrupts() call
after context_switch in schedule(), which broke the interrupt-state
semantics for callers that needed atomicity.
All process creation functions (fork, clone, kernel thread) now push
EFLAGS=0x202 (IF=1) onto the initial stack so new processes start
with interrupts enabled via popf in context_switch.
Kernel socket subsystem over lwIP TCP/UDP PCBs with ring-buffer RX,
wait queues for blocking ops, and fd integration via sentinel file
structs (flags=0x534F434B).
Socket dispatch extracted to separate noinline function to prevent
syscall_handler stack overflow that caused heap corruption.
