pki: the StarshipOS CA, made on the CI box; capsules signed in CI
Ruled by Captain Bob, 2026-11-07: "New root CA on the CI box. Valid
StarshipOS rather than snake oil intermediate."

- ci/pki/make-ca.sh makes the StarshipOS Root CA (its key stays on the CI
  box) and the StarshipOS Capsule Signing intermediate it issues, and
  stores the signing key as the secret CAPSULE_SIGN_KEY.
- The kernel finds the signing certificate by one name,
  CAPSULE_SIGNING_CERT_NAME = pki:starshipos-intermediate.der. The
  certificate itself lands once make-ca.sh has run; until then the
  snakeoil intermediate is in the tree under its old name and the
  capsules check as "no root key" (a warning, as "missing" was).
- mkcapsule refuses a signing key that is not that certificate's.
- SIGN_KEY has no default; acceptance, build, nightly and release set it
  from the secret.

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.
