meta-forgefirm: the forgefirm-users init replays the account at boot;
sshd refuses root and empty passwords and runs only while the panel
turns it on; the release image keeps an empty root password for the
console; the console banner; avahi announces forgefirm.local; https in
libmicrohttpd and ulfius; the panel on 80 and 443; the license bundle on
the rootfs; release.sh checks the root policy on the built rootfs.
forgetest: the commission suites (commission, commission_dark,
commission_sheet: 23 cases); the runner turns cloud mode on with the
typed phrase for a test that declares it; the baseline's motor_lock is
0; the log-export test checks the bundle for the camera key; the record
helpers write bytes as given and join the daemon's paths as POSIX. The
stream harness gains rule 24: a hold verdict is held again after a
resume. Bench drills: lens_travel.py and lens_stop_accel.py.
Docs: BRINGUP carries the present state; CAMPAIGN-LOG carries the dated
record.
- Controllers stop at K80, before forgectrl at K90: runlevel 0/6 no
longer tears down the cooling engine, fire gates, and broker while a
controller may still be executing a job.
- The grblhal/gfcloud init scripts are real emergency levers: stop
routes through the supervisor (POST /controller/stop - a bare pkill
was safed and respawned seconds later), start resumes supervision,
status exists, and the pkill fallback matches full executable paths
instead of truncated names or bare substrings.
- slotmigrate: the partition grow gets the same 2048-sector tolerance
as the filesystem branch (an exact compare rewrote the MBR at S02 on
every boot on disks where the grow cannot land on the last sector),
verifies it made progress, and the resize2fs retry is bounded at
three attempts with the counter kept on p3 itself.
- Installer: archive product/platform are verified after the signature,
and a validly signed OLDER release now requires an explicit yes
instead of installing as a silent downgrade. All predictable /tmp
paths in the installer and ffboot are mktemp now.
- release.sh rejects multiple positional versions (the last one used to
win silently) and a release without factory-era verification dies
unless explicitly bypassed; mkfw.sh refuses to pack when the public
key for the post-sign self-check is missing.
- forgefirm-logrotate: size-capped rotation (boot + hourly) for the
/data logs - a full /data breaks settings, update staging, and the
controllers own writes.
- Bench build scripts derive every path from their own location or
FF_SRC_TOP/FF_BUILD_TOP and log to mktemp files.
