Added 256-byte ring buffer to capture UART input and prevent character loss. Changes: - core/rumpk/hal/uart.zig: * Added input_buffer ring (256 bytes) * Implemented poll_input() to move UART → buffer * Modified read_byte() to consume from buffer Design: - Buffer captures chars from boot, holds until userland reads - poll_input() called on every read_byte() to refill - Prevents timing issues where input arrives before NipBox starts Status: - ✅ Buffer implementation complete - ✅ No crashes, system stable - ⚠️ QEMU stdin not reaching UART registers (config issue) Next: Investigate QEMU serial configuration or test with manual typing in interactive session. |

Rumpk HAL (L0)
Language: Zig + Assembly
Purpose: Hardware Abstraction Layer
Module Index
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
main.zig |
Entry point (_start), stack setup, calls Nim kmain |
stubs.zig |
Freestanding libc (memcpy, malloc, printf, etc.) |
uart.zig |
PL011 UART driver (QEMU virt) |
abi.zig |

Freestanding Doctrine
This HAL provides ALL C ABI symbols. No glibc, no musl.
Exported Symbols:
- Memory:
memcpy,memset,memmove,memcmp - Strings:
strlen,strcmp,strcpy - Heap:
malloc,free,realloc,calloc - I/O:
printf,puts,putchar - Exit:
exit,abort - Signals:
signal,raise(no-op stubs)
Build
Compiled via zig build-obj -target <arch>-freestanding-none
