From 045c9ddf71b62dff538cd3ae1963166ab5c145a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: salmonik Date: Sun, 2 Aug 2026 01:52:10 +0200 Subject: v0.5.5: visible boot progress + panic-on-screen for real hardware MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Real hardware has no serial console: a pre-shell panic was a silent blank screen (the panic handler only wrote to serial, then cli;hlt). v0.5.4's shadow change made this window reachable — if the fb-aware page allocation or the heap fallback failed on hardware, the kernel halted before the shell banner with zero screen output. - gop::boot_marker(): every boot stage now draws straight to the framebuffer (row 0, white-on-black). The last marker visible before a hang identifies where the kernel died. - Panic handler: pre-shell panics now draw a white-on-red '*** PANIC *** at file:line' band via gop::dump_lines. - init_shadow(): heap fallback is panic-proof (try_reserve_exact + resize instead of vec![0; words] which aborts on OOM); page-alloc result defensively re-checked against the fb region; any failure degrades to no-shadow mode with a visible warning band. - Verified: full chain (rsboot -> kernel) boots with markers, shell banner renders, all 5 test suites pass. --- Cargo.toml | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'Cargo.toml') diff --git a/Cargo.toml b/Cargo.toml index b7abb0e..76139bb 100644 --- a/Cargo.toml +++ b/Cargo.toml @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ resolver = "2" members = ["rsnix", "shell", "rsdos", "rsdosedit"] [workspace.package] -version = "0.5.4" +version = "0.5.5" edition = "2024" # no_std UEFI kernel: no unwinder available, so panic must abort. -- cgit v1.2.3
