The header scan (Captain Bob, 2026-11-10): 788 source files -- 351 with the
SL-1.0 header, 12 with the old name (docs/working/experiments, kept by
ruling), 31 under someone else's licence (tools/kconfig, Linux's, GPL-2.0:
kept), and 394 with none. Ruled: the SPDX form; capsules (.4th, .f18) and
proofs (.thy) left for a ruling of their own (mkcapsule's 64x16 block format,
content-addressed capsules).

as a /* */ block (C, headers, assembly, linker scripts) or # lines (scripts,
Makefiles, Kconfig; below a shebang or a coding line); tools/mkcapsule.c,
which had the copyright line, gets the SPDX line only.
Not touched: docs/working/ (archive and old campaign material, as the
ruling kept the experiments); v4/system/post_cases.c (generated by
v4/tools/mkpost.py, "do not edit" -- the generator has the header).
Comments only: the kernel builds on amd64, aarch64, riscv64; make -C v4
test-32: 39 programs, 0 failures; every changed script parses.

Milk-V Mars boot media
make boot_image TARGET=MILKV builds build/boards/milkv/lithos-milkv.img: a GPT disk with one
FAT32 EFI System Partition. Write it to an SD card with dd. The partition holds:
EFI/BOOT/BOOTRISCV64.EFI: the riscv64 monolithic loader, the same one QEMU boots.startup.nsh: for a UEFI shell, if one is used.starforth.cfg: only present whenKERNEL_ARGS="..."is given.
The board's own SPI-flash U-Boot, with OpenSBI underneath, finds the loader through its standard
bootefi scan of the removable-media path. U-Boot passes its devicetree to the loader through the
EFI configuration table.
Status: booted in QEMU through the same chain the board uses: OpenSBI, then U-Boot
qemu-riscv64_smode, then bootefi from this image's ESP, then the loader and the kernel. POST
passed, Stadium conservation was exact (resident 43691 + reservoir 21845 = 65536 = Q48_ONE), and
Hestia and Artemis came up. Not yet booted on the Mars itself. The JH7110 peripherals
(framebuffer, RNG) have only been checked by compiling.
To repeat the QEMU boot (qemu-system-riscv64 is in Ubuntu 26.04's qemu-system-riscv package;
OpenSBI and U-Boot come from opensbi and u-boot-qemu). Use a copy, because the kernel writes
to its disk:
