- diskutil: add proc_pid global, diskutil_entry idle proc, create process
on launch with setWindowOwner, kill on close, zero proc_pid in init
- notepad: add pid field to TNotepadState, notepad_entry idle proc, create
process on launch with setWindowOwner, kill pid in doCloseWindow
- both apps now appear in PS and are manageable via KILL/TERMINATE
- Decode multiboot boot_device byte in storagemanager to identify boot device
- Add isBootDevice to TStorage_Device; propagate isBootDrive to volumes
- Create /boot VFS directory at init; mount boot volume there in auto_mount_volumes
- Fix getDirEntries skipping \-marked (deleted) FAT32 entries to prevent
triple fault when navigating into a deleted directory via file picker
PS/2 Mouse:
- Fix ISR spin-blocking by reading port $60 directly with inb() instead
of calling mouse_read(), which uses mouse_wait_long (100k iterations)
and would stall the interrupt handler waiting for the next packet byte.
Timer (PIT):
- Increase PIT frequency from ~1024 Hz to ~8 kHz (divisor 1193 -> 149)
for more granular timer ticks.
Graphics Refresh:
- Replace timer-hook-driven rendering (driver/timers/graphicsrefresh)
with a dedicated 'gfxd' process that runs a continuous render loop,
keeping the vCPU active to avoid NEM/Hyper-V pause-loop descheduling.
- Move uidebug from driver/video/ to prog/.
- Update FPS calculation to account for 8 kHz tick rate.
USB Hotplug:
- Replace timer-hook-driven polling (driver/timers/usbhotplug) with a
dedicated 'usbd' daemon process that sleeps 1s between poll cycles.
- Add bounds check in usbcore.usb_check_hotplug for empty HC list.
Cleanup:
- Remove old scheduler unit (superseded by processmanager/contextswitcher).
- Remove tss unit and tss.init() call from kernel.
- Remove unused syslog import from contextswitcher.
- Reduce BASE_QUANTUM from 8 to 5.
Replace the blocking main render loop in kernel.pas with two new
timer-hooked units that are driven by the 1024Hz PIT interrupt:
- graphicsrefresh: calls desktop.update, uidebug.update, lvgl_handler
and video.Flush every 4 ticks (~256 FPS target).
- usbhotplug: calls usbcore.usb_check_hotplug every 1024 ticks (~1Hz).
The kernel main procedure now registers both timer hooks and enters an
idle STI/HLT loop (kernel.yield), allowing the CPU to sleep between
interrupts instead of busy-spinning.
Also removes the unused myUserLandFunction and reorders early syslog
init calls for clarity.
- Track enumerated devices per-HC via linked list (hc^.Devices)
- Add usb_clear_halt() for endpoint stall recovery (CLEAR_FEATURE)
- Add usb_remove_device() to clean up and free device records
- Add get_hc() for indexed host controller access
- Implement 'USB' terminal command showing HC info, connected devices,
speeds, class descriptors, and endpoint details
The PS/2 keyboard callback hardcoded is_down_code := true for every
scancode, so key releases were never reported. This caused keys to
repeat endlessly until the next key was pressed.
In PS/2 scancode set 1, bit 7 indicates a break (release) code.
The callback now:
- Detects break codes via (scancode AND $80)
- Masks to base code (scancode AND $7F) for key matrix lookup
- Sets is_down_code := false for break codes
- Updates modifier state (shift/ctrl/alt) before building the
key event, so modifier releases take effect immediately
Files changed:
- ps2_keyboard.pas: rewrite callback to handle make/break codes
Replace main-loop polling (poll_all, poll_keyboards, poll_mice) with
hardware interrupt handlers for all four USB host controller drivers.
Each HC driver (XHCI, EHCI, OHCI, UHCI) now:
- Registers an ISR on its PCI interrupt line via isrmanager
- Enables hardware interrupts after HC initialization
- Acknowledges interrupt status in the ISR before calling poll,
preventing interrupt storms on level-triggered PCI lines
- Uses a PollBusy re-entrancy guard to prevent ISR/inline poll races
usbcore gains a completion hook system (register_completion_hook /
fire_completion_hooks) so HID drivers (keyboard, mouse) are notified
directly from the ISR after transfer completion.
Files changed:
- usbcore.pas: completion hook infrastructure
- XHCI.pas: ISR, enable_interrupts, submit ordering fix
- EHCI.pas: ISR, enable_interrupts, status ack in ISR
- OHCI.pas: ISR, enable_interrupts, status ack in ISR
- UHCI.pas: ISR, enable_interrupts, status ack in ISR
- usb_keyboard.pas: register completion hook
- usb_mouse.pas: register completion hook
- New units: usbtypes, usbcore, usbhub, UHCI, OHCI, usb_keyboard,
usb_mouse
- usbtypes: shared USB descriptors, constants, HC abstraction,
aligned alloc, unit tests
- usb_keyboard: USB HID boot keyboard driver with HID-to-ASCII
translation, polling, unit tests
- usb_mouse: USB HID boot mouse driver with delta/scroll/button
processing, polling, unit tests
HID Layer Restructure:
- keyboard.pas: stripped to abstract API (hook + reportKeyEvent),
no PS/2 dependency
- mouse.pas: absorbed mousestate.pas, now owns
position/buttons/scroll/hooks directly
- mousestate.pas: deleted (merged into mouse.pas)
- New ps2_keyboard.pas: PS/2 scan code translation,
calls keyboard.reportKeyEvent
- New ps2_mouse.pas: PS/2 packet handling, calls
mouse.setMousePos/fireMouseEvent
LVGL Integration:
- lvgl.pas: updated to use mouse.pas directly (was mousestate),
improved keyboard input handling with proper key held/release tracking
- vterminal.pas: removed serial debug logging, dropped serial dependency
Kernel:
- kernel.pas: added USB units, USB polling in main loop, unit test
calls, ps2_keyboard/ps2_mouse init
When size=0 was passed to memset() or memcpy(), the loop bound
`0 to size-1` underflowed to $FFFFFFFF, iterating ~4 billion times
and causing an immediate page fault.
Added `if size = 0 then exit` guards to both memset() and memcpy()
in util.pas.
Also guarded all `for i:=0 to X-1` loops in strings.pas where X
could be 0 on empty string inputs:
- stringToUpper: wrap loop in `if stringSize > 0`
- stringToLower: wrap loop in `if stringSize > 0`
- stringEquals: early exit when both sizes are 0
- stringToInt: early exit when string is empty
Additionally fixed all previously identified bugs in strings.pas:
- hexStringToInt: guard against empty string underflow
- stringConcat: cache stringSize calls to avoid redundant O(n) scans
- stringTrim: clamp length to source string size
- stringSub: bounds check start/size against source length
- stringReplace: complete rewrite - was using stringEquals() for
substring matching (only matched at string end), dropped prefix
chars, had dangling assignment overwriting valid result with
uninitialized pointer, and had unused variable
- stringIndexOf: rewritten to use new stringMatchAt() helper for
correct substring matching
- stringContains: simplified to delegate to fixed stringIndexOf(),
also fixing uint32 underflow when sub was empty
- stringToInt: removed always-true `v >= 0` check on uint32
- intToString: implemented (was a stub returning ' ')
- Added stringMatchAt() helper for prefix comparison
- Added comprehensive UnitTest procedure with 77 assertions
including adversarial empty/nil/boundary inputs
refactor(stdio): replace console/terminal command system with buffer-based stdio
- Introduced stdio.pas as the unified command I/O layer.
- All 31 command procedures across 15 files now receive stdin_buf,
stdout_buf, and stderr_buf (POutBuf) instead of a single outbuf.
- vterminal.pas creates all three buffers per command invocation and
displays both stdout and stderr.
- Deleted console.pas, terminal.pas, and 9 obsolete windowing programs
(shell, splash, edit, memview, themer, netlog, vmlog, vmstate, udpcat).
- Migrated all registerCommand calls to stdio, rewrote vterminal
processCommand to use stdio.findCommand, and added proper error
routing to stderr for invalid params, bad paths, and system errors.
refactor(syslog): replace console logging with serial-backed syslog
- Introduced syslog.pas for kernel-level logging over serial/dev.
- Migrated all boot logging in kernel.pas from console.outputln/
writestringln to syslog.logln/writestringln.
- Converted 19 fault handlers, hashmap, lists, scheduler, tracer, net,
udp, and all driver init paths to use syslog.
- Rewrote BSOD in util.pas (50+ calls) from console to syslog.
- Removed CONSOLE_SLOW_REDRAW, TRGB565, TRGB565Pair, and HWND
from system.pas.
fix(keyboard): add ring buffer and proper press/release cycling for LVGL input
- Replaced the single last_key/key_pressed slot in lvgl.pas with a
16-entry ring buffer (kb_buf, kb_head, kb_tail) to prevent ISR
overwrites when typing fast.
- Added a kb_pending_release flag so each keystroke gets a
full PRESSED->RELEASED cycle before the next key is consumed —
LVGL requires this pairing and was silently dropping intermediate
keys when receiving consecutive PRESSED events without
intervening releases.
feat(vterminal): use Hack monospace font for terminal output
- Added Hack Regular 14px (hack_14.c) as a custom LVGL font.
- Removed the .static_bitmap field from the generated font file
(not present in LVGL 9.2 lv_font_t struct).
- Declared the hack_14 external symbol in lvgl.pas and switched
vterminal's text label from lv_font_montserrat_14 to hack_14
for proper monospace terminal rendering.
XGETBV/XSETBV require CR4 bit 18 (OSXSAVE) to be set before execution,
otherwise the CPU raises #UD (invalid opcode). Hyper-V enforces this
strictly; VirtualBox was silently tolerating it.
- Check both AVX and XSAVE CPUID flags before attempting AVX enable
- Set CR4.OSXSAVE (bit 18) before issuing XGETBV/XSETBV
- If XSAVE is not exposed by the hypervisor, AVX enable is skipped
gracefully instead of faulting
