xHCI/BOT driver: genuine multi-device support (FABRIC-3.md §VII)
Per-slot registry (xhci_msc_slot_t/dev->msc_slots, sized off the
controller's own reported max_slots) replaces the single-device scalar
fields the driver carried since Milestones 2e-2h. Boot-time port scan no
longer stops at the first connected device; a connect/disconnect that
arrives while the Command Ring is busy is now queued and drained instead
of dropped. blkio_usb.c and repl.c's own single-device state (device
descriptor buffers, blkio_dev_t, attach bookkeeping) became per-slot
registries the same way.

Live multi-device testing (not just compiling) surfaced a second, more
severe bug outside the original plan: transfer_purpose and next_action
were also single scalars shared across the whole controller. Two devices
enumerating concurrently could have one's completion silently overwrite
the other's still-outstanding one, permanently stalling it with no error.
Fixed by moving both per-slot and, critically, reading the Transfer Event
TRB's own real Slot ID field instead of trusting external bookkeeping.

Verified live, all three architectures, mandatory clean-qemu acceptance:
existing single-device path unchanged, and two devices attached
simultaneously (amd64) both progress independently through enumeration
without corrupting or stalling each other.

Also in this pass (implemented and verified in earlier turns this
session, committed together per direct instruction):
- Headless-until-login console policy: no prompt/banner until a real
  identity logs in via an attached thumbdrive (WIREBIND or Zuse, neither
  special), reusing EMERGENCY_CONSOLE_ENABLED as the debug/recovery
  escape hatch (now default-off).
- KILL/g_repl_active_vm dangling-pointer fix: killing the VM the console
  is currently USE'd onto now detaches back to Hera first, matching the
  existing EJECT/UNCLEAN precedent.

FABRIC-3.md §VII/§VIII carry full closure notes for all three.

include/starkernel/

Headers for LithosAnanke, the bare-metal UEFI kernel (src/starkernel/). Built only via Makefile.starkernel; gated by __STARKERNEL__ when shared with hosted code.

  • uefi.h — UEFI protocol/type definitions consumed by the loader.
  • elf64.h, elf_loader.h — ELF64 parsing and kernel-image loading.
  • boot_info_offsets.h — struct-offset constants shared between the assembly bootstrap and the C boot path.
  • arch.h, apic.h, timer.h — architecture init, APIC interrupt controller, timer (TSC/HPET/APIC, 100 Hz heartbeat).
  • console.h, framebuffer.h, vt100.h — UART 16550 console, framebuffer driver, and VT100 terminal emulation over the framebuffer.
  • pmm.h, vmm.h, kmalloc.h — physical memory manager (bitmap allocator), 4-level x86_64 paging, kernel heap allocator.
  • pci.h, virtio_blk.h — PCI enumeration and the VirtIO block device driver (disk backend for the kernel block subsystem).
  • capsule.h, capsule_birth.h, capsule_loader.h, capsule_run.h, capsule_vm_physics.h, capsule_generated.h — capsule system types, birth protocol, physics-runtime capsule bindings, and the build-time- generated capsule directory (see tools/mkcapsule.c).
  • kernel_args.h, cmdline.h — boot-time kernel argument parsing (starforth.cfg / command line).
  • repl.h — kernel REPL.
  • log.h, doe_log.h — kernel logging and DoE metrics logging.
  • q48_16.h — kernel-build copy of Q48.16 fixed-point arithmetic.
  • xxhash64.h — content-addressing hash used for capsule IDs.
  • hal_memory.h — hardware-abstraction-layer memory interface.

Subdirectories:

  • hal/ — top-level hardware-abstraction-layer interface.
  • vm/ — kernel VM subsystem headers (capsule arena, parity logging, bootstrap wiring).
  • freestanding/ — minimal libc-shim headers (assert.h, ctype.h, errno.h, inttypes.h, math.h, sched.h, signal.h, stdio.h, stdlib.h, string.h, time.h, sys/time.h, sys/types.h) for building shared VM code in the freestanding kernel environment, where no real libc is available.
