The repo's documentation framed it as a support repo for one product
(WardenOS). Since going public the real audience is anyone with a Luckfox
Pico 86 Panel: a maintained 6.18 kernel, an off-device development loop,
and a device simulator that exist nowhere else for this board. Reframe the
README and top-level docs board-first, with WardenOS documented as the
downstream consumer it is (ADR-0008).
Also an editorial pass over the whole doc set:
- every H1/H2 is now a short title, not a sentence (ADRs, qemu/, patches/,
drivers/, architecture, NPU feasibility, config-lint, payload); workflow
flowchart titles fixed at the source in tools/flowgen.py and regenerated
with fresh bench numbers
- README Quick Start commands verified against the scripts; requirements
corrected (curl, bare python, gcc >= 14) and the MC/DC gate added as a
step (run green locally on gcc 14.2)
- dropped the 'needs python (not python3)' vendor dig: build-kernel.sh
inherited the same requirement (filed #10 to remove it)
- glossed MC/DC and HPMCU on first use; marked the tests/uboot-ab
reference as flare-edge; deduplicated the three-simulator list into the
root README table
Preparing the repo to go public (ADR-0007):
- CI: kernel-build moves from the self-hosted runner to ubuntu-latest
(installs its own cross toolchain + qemu, caches the pristine tarball).
On a public repo a registered self-hosted runner is reachable from
approved fork-PR workflows — i.e. arbitrary code on private
infrastructure — and the build never actually needed the SDK host.
ADR-0004 marked superseded-in-part; docs/ci-cd.md rewritten (site
specifics now live only in the private deployment log).
- Licensing: LICENSE gains the GPL-2.0 carve-out for patches/ and the
kernel source excerpts (Linux derivatives; per-driver provenance was
already tracked in PROVENANCE.md); patches/README.md states it too.
- Scrubbed from the tip: bench-unit dev credentials and its gadget IP
(m2-boot notes), the site AP SSID+BSSID and a neighboring AP's BSSID
and the device WLAN MAC (wifi bring-up evidence — BSSIDs are
geolocatable), the runner mesh IP. NOTE: these remain in git history;
decision on a pre-publication history rewrite is separate.
- Emoji cleanup across 21 tracked files (kernel port docs, review report,
enforce-mcdc.sh) per repo text conventions: status marks became
[x]/[wip]/[ ]/OK plain text.
- "[maintainer]-gated" process phrasing normalized to "maintainer-gated"
(attributions in dated evidence docs kept).
Verified: zero emojis tracked; scrub grep clean; patches carry no internal
references; ci.yml parses; shellcheck unchanged.
