boards/BRINGUP.md R2/R3, FABRIC-3 SXXXIX. The entry stub cleans the cache
over the image, builds an identity map (the image's GiB Normal, the rest
Device) and enables MMU and caches at EL2 (or EL1); rpi5_mmu.c makes the
devicetree's RAM Normal and the framebuffer uncached. Mailbox waits give
up after one second; the buffer is cleaned around the exchange; the
framebuffer address goes through dma-ranges, not a Pi 4 mask.
New rpi5-rehearsal target runs the native image on QEMU virt at EL2. It
found three more that would each have stopped the board: the PL011 shift
(mine, c9519173; the host test asserted it), the GIC address not carried
through /soc's ranges (new fdt_reg_address(), checked against the real
Pi 5 DTB), and no timer IRQ at EL2 (HCR_EL2.IMO/FMO/AMO).
Rehearsal: POST 1052 passed, same parity hash as UEFI. Standard acceptance
on three ISAs: POST 1052, hash 0x82f4ae7cb2e2d424.

Each board has one serial line that is its console, the lowest common
denominator beside the screen and keyboard. Its address was QEMU's,
fixed: on a Raspberry Pi 5 the aarch64 one is ordinary RAM, written to
with every character printed; on a Milk-V Mars the riscv64 one is the
board's UART with registers four bytes apart, and the UEFI loader would
have waited for ever on its first character; on a PC with no COM1 the
prompt read 0xFF for ever.
console_attach_serial(), called before anything prints: COM1 if a UART
answers there; elsewhere the UART that /chosen/stdout-path names
(fdt_uart.c: alias, path, the address carried up through each bus's
ranges, reg-shift and reg-io-width); with no devicetree, QEMU's. A
devicetree that names no usable console gives no line, not a guess. A
line that does not come ready is given up, not waited on. The riscv64
loader's early serial does the same.
tools/fdt_uart_test.c, run by hand, 19 checks plain and under the
sanitizers: devicetrees shaped like the Mars's, the Pi 5's and QEMU's,
what must find nothing, and a block cut short at every length; and the
Pi 5's real devicetree gives a PL011 at 0x107d001000.
Acceptance, one QEMU at a time: v3 on amd64 (logs/20261013-204436),
aarch64 (-204803) and riscv64 (-205001) to the zuse prompt, no unknown
word, hash 0x08873e0f44b7cb2a on all three as before. -204600 is an
aarch64 run during which the disk images were restored under it by a
script that had been refused a second QEMU; it passed and is kept, and
was run again. v4 on the three ISAs (-211149, -211444, -211857): POST
538 of 538, dict_hash 0xe5a57f3eb72ff94a, the typed session unchanged.
The Mars image through OpenSBI and U-Boot in QEMU took its line and its
interrupt controller from the devicetree and passed POST.
Found on the way and not mended (boards/BRINGUP.md 1.6): built with
EMERGENCY_CONSOLE_ENABLED=1 the prompt floods with empty lines. -210442
shows it; the commit before this does the same.

Source tree reorganization:
- Move StarForth v3 engine to v3/ (src/, include/, Makefile)
- Move kernel to kernel/ (src/, include/, linker/, Makefile)
- Create v4/ skeleton for F18-ISA golden model (DECOMPOSITION.md, JUSTIFICATION.md)
- Move FABRIC-0..4.md to docs/fabric/
- Move ONTOLOGY.md and ROADMAP.md to docs/
Board infrastructure:
- Add boards/ser5/, boards/raspi/, boards/milkv/, boards/zynq7020/
- Each board has board.mk (ISA, CPU flags, boot recipe) and README.md
- Root Makefile becomes thin dispatcher: boot_image, all, clean, docs take TARGET
- make boot_image TARGET=SER5|RASPI|MILKV builds one GPT/MBR image per board
- ZYNQ7020 target exists but stops with clear error (ARMv7 port not built yet)
- scripts/mkdiskimage.sh builds disk images for all boards
Docs pipeline:
- docs/book/ with LaTeX master (main.tex) and Makefile
- pandoc converts Markdown to LaTeX at build time
- Two Lua filters: table-widths.lua (wide tables wrap), code-breaks.lua (inline code breaks)
- make docs builds single PDF (754 pages, 0 missing characters)
- make docs TARGET=<board> adds board appendix
- build/docs/<book|board>/meta.tex stamps git commit into PDF
Bug fixes:
- 42 include paths that only worked by accident now use correct relative paths
- clang-18 hardcode replaced with configurable CC variable (fixed aarch64 build)
- Pi 5: kernel_2712.img linked at 0x80000, .bss zeroed, memory reserved
- Doxyfile, .clang-tidy, README.md, Kconfig paths updated
Verified:
- Hosted v3 build passes 1012 tests, 0 failures
- SER5 image boots in QEMU (OVMF), POST passes, K exact (65536 = Q48_ONE)
- Milk-V image boots in QEMU (OpenSBI + U-Boot + bootefi), POST passes
- make clean TARGET=<board> removes only that board and its ISA objects
- make all builds all boards, hosted v3, and docs in one run
