understands how they think.** + +> Part of the [RuVector](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuVector) ecosystem. Uses [RuVix](../../crates/ruvix/) kernel primitives and [RVF](../../crates/rvf/) package format. Designed for [Cognitum](https://cognitum.one) Seed, Appliance, and future chip targets. + +Traditional hypervisors were built for an era of static server workloads — +long-running VMs with predictable resource needs. AI agents are different. +They spawn in milliseconds, communicate in dense, shifting graphs, share +context across trust boundaries, and die without warning. VMs are the wrong +abstraction. + +RVM replaces VMs with **coherence domains** — lightweight, graph-structured +partitions whose isolation, scheduling, and memory placement are driven by how +agents actually communicate. When two agents start talking more, RVM moves +them closer. When trust drops, RVM splits them apart. Every mutation is +proof-gated. Every action is witnessed. The system *understands* its own +structure. + +``` +Agent swarm → [RVM Coherence Engine] → Optimal Placement → Witness Proof + ↑ │ + └──── Agent Communication Graph ─────────────┘ + (< 50µs adaptive re-partitioning) +``` + +**No KVM.

If an agent in one +partition begins communicating heavily with an agent in another, RVM +automatically triggers a partition split and migrates the agent to optimise +placement — no manual configuration. No existing hypervisor can split or merge +live partitions along a graph-theoretic cut boundary. + +**Memory Time Travel and Deep Forensics.** Traditional virtual memory +permanently overwrites state or blindly swaps it to disk. RVM stores dormant +memory as a checkpoint combined with a delta-compressed witness trail. Any +historical state can be perfectly rebuilt on demand — days or weeks later — +because every privileged action is recorded in a tamper-evident, hash-chained +witness log. External forensic tools can reconstruct past states to answer +precise questions such as "which task mutated this vector store between 14:00 +and 14:05 on Tuesday?" + +**Targeted Fault Rollback Without Global Reboots.** When the kernel detects a +coherence violation or memory corruption it does not crash. Instead it finds +the last known-good checkpoint, replays the witness log, explicitly skips the +mutation that caused the failure, and resumes from a corrected state (DC-14, +failure classes F1–F3). + +**Deterministic Multi-Tenant Edge Orchestration.** Existing edge orchestrators +rely on Linux-based VMs or containers, inheriting scheduling unpredictability +and no guarantee of bounded latency with provable isolation. RVM enables +scenarios such as an autonomous vehicle where safety-critical sensor-fusion +agents (Reflex mode, < 10 µs switch) are strictly isolated from low-priority +infotainment agents, or a smart factory floor running hard real-time PLC +control loops safely alongside ML inference agents. + +**High-Assurance Security on Extreme Microcontrollers.** Through its Seed +hardware profile (ADR-138), RVM brings capability-enforced isolation, +proof-gated execution, and witness attestation to deeply constrained IoT +devices with as little as 64 KB of RAM. Delivering this level of zero-trust, +auditable security on microcontroller-class hardware is a novel capability not +provided by any existing embedded operating system. + +--- + +## Architecture +

+ +
+✨ 6 Novel Capabilities (No Prior Art) + +### 1. Kernel-Level Graph Control Loop +No existing OS uses spectral graph coherence metrics as a scheduling signal. RVM's coherence engine runs mincut algorithms in the kernel's scheduling loop — graph structure directly drives where computation runs, when partitions split, and which memory stays resident. + +### 2. Reconstructable Memory ("Memory Time Travel") +RVM explicitly rejects demand paging. Dormant memory is stored as `witness checkpoint + delta compression`, not raw bytes. The system can deterministically reconstruct any historical state from the witness log. + +### 3. Proof-Gated Infrastructure +Every state mutation requires a valid proof token verified through a three-tier system: P1 capability (<1µs), P2 policy (<100µs), P3 deep derivation chain verification (walks tree to root, validates ancestor integrity + epoch monotonicity). + +### 4. Witness-Native OS +Every privileged action emits a fixed 64-byte, SHA-256 hash-chained record with HMAC-SHA256 signatures. Tamper-evident by construction. Full deterministic replay from any checkpoint. + +### 5. Live Partition Split/Merge +Partitions split along graph-theoretic cut boundaries and merge when coherence rises. Capabilities follow ownership (DC-8), regions use weighted scoring (DC-9), merges require 7 preconditions (DC-11). + +### 6. Edge Security on 64KB RAM +Capability-based isolation, proof-gated execution, and witness attestation on microcontroller-class hardware (Cortex-M/R, 64KB RAM). + +

Reset → EL2 → serial → MMU → first witness. +- **M1**: Partition + capability model. Create, destroy, switch. Simple deadline scheduler. + +### Phase 2: Differentiation (M2-M3) — "Can it prove and witness?" +- **M2**: Witness logging (64-byte chained records) + P1/P2 proof verifier. +- **M3**: 2-signal scheduler (deadline + cut_pressure). Flow + Reflex modes. Zero-copy IPC. + +### Phase 3: Innovation (M4-M5) — "Can it think about coherence?" +- **M4**: Dynamic mincut integration (DC-2 budget). Live coherence graph. Migration triggers. +- **M5**: Memory tier management. Reconstruction from dormant state. + +### Phase 4: Expansion (M6-M7) — "Can agents run on it?" +- **M6**: WASM agent runtime adapter. Agent lifecycle. +- **M7**: Seed/Appliance hardware bring-up. All success criteria. + +
+ +
+🔐 Security Model + +**Capability-Based Authority.** All access controlled through unforgeable kernel-resident tokens. No ambient authority. Seven rights with monotonic attenuation. + +**Proof-Gated Mutation.** No memory remap, device mapping, migration, or partition merge without a valid proof token. Three tiers with strict latency budgets. + +**Witness-Native Audit.** 64-byte records for every mutating operation. Hash-chained for tamper evidence. Deterministic replay from checkpoint + witness log. + +**Failure Classification.** F1 (agent restart) → F2 (partition reconstruct) → F3 (memory rollback) → F4 (kernel reboot). Each escalation witnessed. + +

KVM provides the dominant Linux virtualization API, Firecracker builds a minimalist microVM on top of KVM, and seL4 offers a formally verified microkernel with capability-based security. All of these treat a virtual machine (or process) as the primary abstraction boundary. + +RVM changes this. Instead of VMs, the primary abstraction is **coherence domains** — dynamically partitioned graph regions where placement, isolation, and migration decisions are driven by graph-theoretic cut pressure and locality scoring. Every privileged mutation is proof-gated (capability-based authority) and every privileged action emits a compact witness record for full auditability. + +RVM is NOT a KVM VMM. It boots bare-metal and owns the hardware directly. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **VM-centric virtualization wastes coherence**: Traditional hypervisors allocate resources per-VM without understanding the coupling structure of the workloads inside. Cross-VM communication pays full exit cost regardless of locality. +2. **No coherence-native hypervisor exists**: No existing system uses graph partitioning (mincut) as a first-class scheduling and isolation primitive. +3. **Agent workloads need finer-grained isolation**: Multi-agent edge deployments require partitions that are smaller, faster to switch, and cheaper to migrate than full VMs. +4. **Audit trails are bolted on, not native**: Existing hypervisors treat logging as an afterthought. Witness-native operation requires audit records as a core kernel object. +5. **Rust proves viable for bare-metal kernels**: RustyHermit, Theseus, RedLeaf, and Tock demonstrate that Rust can own hardware directly, eliminating classes of memory safety bugs that plague C-based kernels. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| KVM | Dominant Linux virtualization API | Baseline comparison; RVM deliberately avoids this dependency | +| Firecracker (AWS) | Minimalist KVM-based microVM, ~125ms boot | Performance target; RVM targets <250ms cold boot without KVM | +| seL4 | Formally verified capability-based microkernel | Capability model inspiration; RVM defers formal verification to post-v1 | +| Rust in Linux (6.1+) | Memory safety in kernel modules | Validates Rust for systems programming; RVM goes further with 95-99% Rust | +| RustyHermit | Bare-metal Rust unikernel | Proves bare-metal Rust boot viability | +| Theseus OS | Intralingual OS design in Rust | Demonstrates Rust ownership for OS resource management | +| RedLeaf | Rust language-based OS with cross-domain isolation | Informs partition isolation model | +| Tock | Embedded Rust OS with capability-based security | Informs capability + device lease model for constrained hardware | +| RuVector mincut crate | Graph-theoretic minimum cut computation | Direct dependency for partition placement and isolation decisions | + +--- + +## Decision + +Build RVM as a standalone bare-metal Rust hypervisor with the following core properties: + +1. **No KVM/Linux dependency** — boots directly on hardware via QEMU virt, ARM, RISC-V +2. **Coherence domains** as the primary abstraction (not VMs) +3. **Dynamic mincut** (using RuVector's `mincut` crate) for placement, isolation, and migration +4. **Proof-gated mutation** — three-layer proof system (see below); no privileged action without valid authority +5. **Witness-native** — every privileged action emits a compact, immutable audit record +6. **Rust-first** — 95-99% Rust; assembly only for reset vector, trap entry, and context switch stubs +7. **Reconstructable memory** — 4-tier model (hot/warm/dormant/cold) with cut-pressure-driven eviction +8. **Agent-optimized** — WASM partition adapter for multi-agent edge workloads +9. **Coherence engine is optional** — kernel MUST boot and run without the graph/mincut/solver subsystem +10. **Graceful degradation** — if coherence engine fails or exceeds budget, system falls back to locality-based scheduling + +--- + +## Design Constraints (Critical) + +These constraints exist to prevent scope collapse. Every contributor and reviewer must enforce them. + +### DC-1: Coherence Engine is Optional + +The kernel (Layer 1) MUST boot, schedule, isolate, and emit witnesses **without Layer 2** (coherence engine). Layer 2 is an optimization, not a dependency. If the coherence engine panics, is absent, or exceeds its time budget, the kernel degrades to locality-based scheduling using static partition affinity. + +**Contract**: `Layer 1 depends on Layer 0 only. Layer 2 depends on Layer 1. Never the reverse.` + +### DC-2: Mincut Never Blocks Scheduling + +Dynamic mincut MUST operate within a hard time budget per scheduler epoch: + +``` +max_mincut_time_per_epoch = 50 microseconds (configurable) +if exceeded: + use last_known_cut + set degraded_flag = true + log witness(MINCUT_BUDGET_EXCEEDED) +``` + +Mincut runs asynchronously between epochs when possible. The scheduler always has a valid (possibly stale) cut to use. **Mincut must NEVER block a scheduling decision.** + +### DC-3: Three-Layer Proof System + +The proof system is NOT one thing. It is three distinct layers with different latency budgets: + +| Layer | Name | Budget | What It Does | +|-------|------|--------|-------------| +| **P1** | Capability check | < 1 us | Validates unforgeable token exists and carries required rights. Bitmap comparison. Fast path. | +| **P2** | Policy validation | < 100 us | Validates structural invariants (ownership chains, region bounds, lease expiry, delegation depth). | +| **P3** | Deep proof | < 10 ms | Optional cryptographic or semantic verification (hash chains, attestation, cross-partition proofs). Only invoked for high-stakes mutations (migration, merge, device lease). | + +**v1 ships P1 + P2 only.** P3 is Phase 2+. Conflating these three systems is a design error. + +### DC-4: Scheduler Starts Simple + +v1 scheduler uses **two signals only**: + +``` +priority = deadline_urgency + cut_pressure_boost +``` + +Novelty scoring and structural risk are deferred to post-v1. Ship a working scheduler first, then add intelligence. Four interacting signals in the hot path is a bottleneck waiting to happen. + +### DC-5: Three Systems, Cleanly Separated + +RVM is simultaneously a hypervisor, a graph engine, and an agent runtime. These MUST be separable: + +| System | Can Run Alone? | Degrades Without | +|--------|---------------|-----------------| +| Kernel (hypervisor) | YES — this is the foundation | Nothing — it is the root | +| Coherence engine | NO — needs kernel | Kernel runs with static placement | +| Agent runtime (WASM) | NO — needs kernel | Kernel runs bare partitions only | + +**Failure mode to prevent**: everything depends on everything. Each system must have a clear degradation story. + +### DC-6: Degraded Mode is Explicit + +When the coherence engine is unavailable or over-budget, the kernel enters **degraded mode**: + +``` +if coherence_engine_unavailable OR coherence_engine_over_budget: + disable split/merge operations + use static partition affinity (locality-based) + scheduler uses deadline_urgency only (cut_pressure = 0) + memory tiers use static thresholds for promotion/demotion + emit witness(DEGRADED_MODE_ENTERED) +``` + +This is the **guaranteed baseline**. The system is always usable without intelligence. + +### DC-7: Migration Has a Time Budget + +Partition migration (serialize → transfer → rebuild) MUST complete within a hard bound: + +``` +max_migration_time = 100 milliseconds (configurable per partition size class) +if exceeded: + abort migration + restore source partition to Running + emit witness(MIGRATION_TIMEOUT, partition_id, elapsed_ms) + mark partition as migration_ineligible for cooldown_period +``` + +Unbounded migration is a liveness hazard. Partial migration is not permitted — it either completes or aborts cleanly. + +### DC-8: Capabilities Follow Ownership on Split + +During partition split, capabilities MUST NOT blindly duplicate. Capabilities follow the objects they reference: + +``` +for each capability in splitting_partition: + if capability.target_object is on side_A: + assign capability to partition_A only + elif capability.target_object is on side_B: + assign capability to partition_B only + elif capability.target_object is shared: + attenuate to READ_ONLY in both + emit witness(CAPABILITY_ATTENUATED_ON_SPLIT) +``` + +Blind duplication leaks authority across partition boundaries. This is a security invariant, not an optimization. + +### DC-9: Region Assignment Uses Scored Placement + +During partition split, region assignment uses a **weighted score**, not naive majority-accessor: + +``` +region_score(side) = alpha * local_access_fraction + + beta * remote_access_cost_avoided + + gamma * size_penalty +``` + +With `alpha=0.5, beta=0.3, gamma=0.2` as starting weights. Assign region to the side with higher score. This prevents oscillation from hotspots with cross-cut access patterns (shared model weights, graph state). + +### DC-10: Partition Switch is Not Individually Witnessed (With Epoch Summary) + +Individual partition switches are NOT witnessed (they must be < 10μs). Instead: + +``` +every scheduler_epoch (e.g., every 1ms): + emit witness(EPOCH_SUMMARY, { + switch_count, + partition_ids_active, + total_switch_time_us, + degraded_flag + }) + +if debug_mode: + sample 1 in N switches with full witness +``` + +This preserves auditability without adding latency to the hot path. + +### DC-11: Merge Requires Strong Preconditions + +Partition merge requires more than shared edge + coherence threshold: + +``` +merge_preconditions: + 1. shared CommEdge exists (structural) + 2. coherence_score > merge_threshold (graph signal) + 3. no conflicting device leases (resource) + 4. no overlapping mutable memory regions (safety) + 5. capability intersection is valid (authority) + 6. both partitions in Running or Suspended (lifecycle) + 7. proof P2 validates merge authority (security) +``` + +Missing any precondition = merge rejected + witness emitted. Weak merge preconditions lead to authority leaks and resource conflicts. + +### DC-12: Logical Partitions Exceed Physical Slots + +Hardware VMID space is bounded (e.g., 256 on ARM). Agent workloads can exceed this. + +``` +logical_partition_count <= MAX_LOGICAL (configurable, e.g., 4096) +physical_partition_slots = hardware VMID limit (e.g., 256) + +if logical > physical: + multiplex: least-recently-scheduled logical partitions yield physical slots + on reschedule: flush TLB, reassign VMID, restore stage-2 mappings + emit witness(VMID_RECLAIM, old_partition, new_partition) +``` + +This separates the scheduling abstraction from hardware limits. Physical slots are a cache, not a ceiling. + +### DC-13: WASM is Optional — Native Partitions Are First Class + +v1 supports **native bare partitions** as the primary execution mode. WASM is an optional safety/portability layer, not a hard dependency: + +``` +partition_types: + bare: native code runs directly in partition (v1 primary) + wasm: WASM module runs inside partition via wasmtime (v1 optional, Phase 4) +``` + +This enables early validation without WASM overhead, and allows performance-critical workloads to run native. WASM becomes a **portability and sandboxing layer**, not an execution requirement. + +### DC-14: Failure Classification (F1-F4) + +Every failure must be classified and escalated predictably: + +| Class | Scope | Response | +|-------|-------|----------| +| F1 | Agent failure (single WASM/native) | Restart within partition | +| F2 | Partition failure | Terminate + reconstruct from checkpoint | +| F3 | Memory corruption | Rollback affected region, Recovery mode | +| F4 | Kernel failure | Full reboot from A/B image | + +**Escalation**: F1 → F2 after 3 restart failures. F2 → F3 if reconstruction fails. F3 → F4 if rollback fails. Each escalation is witnessed. "Recover without reboot" means F1-F3, not F4. + +### DC-15: Control Partition Required on Appliance + +Every Appliance deployment includes a **control partition** — the operator's interface to the system: + +- Witness log queries +- Partition inspection and management +- Health monitoring and anomaly detection +- Debug console (serial or network) + +The control partition is the first user partition created at boot. It has elevated capabilities but is still subject to proof-gated mutation — it cannot bypass the security model. + +--- + +## Architecture + +### Layer Model + +``` +Layer 4: Persistent State + witness log | compressed dormant memory | RVF checkpoints + ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────── +Layer 3: Execution Adapters + bare partition | WASM partition | service adapter + ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────── +Layer 2: Coherence Engine + graph state | mincut | pressure scoring | migration + ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────── +Layer 1: RVM Core (Rust, no_std) + partitions | capabilities | scheduler | witnesses + ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────── +Layer 0: Machine Entry (assembly) + reset vector | trap handlers | context switch +``` + +**Layer 0 — Machine Entry** (assembly, <500 LoC total): +Minimal assembly for hardware reset, exception/interrupt trap entry, and register-level context switch. Everything else is Rust. + +**Layer 1 — RVM Core** (Rust, `#![no_std]`): +Partition lifecycle, capability creation/verification/revocation, witness emission, scheduler tick, memory region management. This layer owns all hardware resources and enforces the capability discipline. + +**Layer 2 — Coherence Engine** (Rust, **optional** — see DC-1): +Maintains the runtime coherence graph — partitions as nodes, communication channels as weighted edges. Runs the mincut algorithm to compute cut pressure (within hard time budget — see DC-2), derives placement and migration decisions, and triggers partition splits or merges when pressure thresholds are crossed. **If absent or failed, kernel falls back to locality-based static placement.** + +**Layer 3 — Execution Adapters** (Rust): +Provides runtime environments within partitions. The bare partition adapter runs native code directly. The WASM partition adapter hosts WebAssembly modules for agent workloads. The service adapter exposes inter-partition RPC. + +**Layer 4 — Persistent State**: +Witness log (append-only, tamper-evident), compressed dormant memory (tier 3 of the memory model), and RVF-backed checkpoints for full state recovery. + +### First-Class Objects + +| Object | Description | +|--------|-------------| +| **Partition** | Coherence domain container; unit of scheduling, isolation, and migration | +| **Capability** | Unforgeable authority token; grants specific rights over specific objects | +| **Witness** | Compact audit record emitted by every privileged action | +| **MemoryRegion** | Typed, tiered, owned memory range with explicit lifetime | +| **CommEdge** | Inter-partition communication channel; weighted edge in the coherence graph | +| **DeviceLease** | Time-bounded, revocable access grant to a hardware device | +| **CoherenceScore** | Locality and coupling metric derived from the coherence graph | +| **CutPressure** | Graph-derived isolation signal; high pressure triggers migration or split | +| **RecoveryCheckpoint** | State snapshot for rollback and reconstruction | + +### Scheduling Modes + +| Mode | Behavior | +|------|----------| +| **Reflex** | Hard real-time. Bounded local execution only. No cross-partition traffic. Deterministic worst-case latency. | +| **Flow** | Normal execution. v1 priority = `deadline_urgency + cut_pressure_boost` (DC-4). Coherence-aware placement when engine available; locality-based otherwise. | +| **Recovery** | Stabilization mode. Replay witness log, rollback to checkpoint, split partitions, rebuild memory from dormant tier. | + +### Memory Model + +The memory model is a key differentiator. Pages are not simply resident or swapped — they occupy one of four tiers, and promotion/demotion is driven by cut-value and recency, not just access frequency. + +| Tier | Location | Contents | Residency Rule | +|------|----------|----------|----------------| +| **Hot** | Tile/core-local | Active execution state | Always resident during partition execution | +| **Warm** | Shared fast memory within cluster | Recently-used shared state | Resident if cut-value justifies cross-partition sharing | +| **Dormant** | Compressed storage | Proof objects, embeddings, suspended state | Compressed; restored on demand or at recovery | +| **Cold** | RVF-backed archival | Checkpoints, historical state | Restore points; accessed only during recovery | + +Pages stay resident only if `cut_value + recency_score > eviction_threshold`. The coherence engine continuously recomputes these scores as the graph evolves. + +### RuVector Crate Integration + +RVM leverages existing RuVector crates rather than reimplementing graph primitives: + +| Crate | Usage in RVM | +|-------|---------------| +| `mincut` | Partition placement decisions, isolation boundary computation, migration triggers | +| `sparsifier` | Efficient sparse graph representation for the coherence graph | +| `solver` | Coherence score computation, spectral analysis for pressure detection | +| `ruvector-cnn` | (Potential) Neural scheduling heuristics for workload prediction | + +--- + +## Target Platforms + +| Platform | Profile | Characteristics | +|----------|---------|----------------| +| **Seed** | Tiny, persistent, event-driven | Hardware-constrained, single or few partitions, deep sleep, witness-only audit | +| **Appliance** | Edge hub, deterministic orchestration | Bounded multi-agent workloads, real-time scheduling, full coherence engine | +| **Chip** | Future Cognitum silicon | Tile-local memory, hardware-assisted partition switch, native coherence scoring | + +--- + +## Success Criteria (v1) + +| # | Criterion | Target | +|---|-----------|--------| +| 1 | Cold boot to first witness | < 250ms on Appliance hardware | +| 2 | Hot partition switch latency | < 10 microseconds | +| 3 | Remote memory traffic reduction | >= 20% vs naive (non-coherence-aware) placement | +| 4 | Tail latency reduction | >= 20% under mixed partition pressure | +| 5 | Witness completeness | Full trail for every migration, remap, and device lease | +| 6 | Fault recovery | Recover from injected fault without global reboot | + +--- + +## Non-Goals (v1) + +- Full Linux ABI compatibility +- Large device model surface (USB, GPU, network card diversity) +- Desktop or workstation use +- Full formal verification (deferred to post-v1; seL4-style proofs are multi-year efforts) +- Cloud VM replacement (strongest advantage is edge/appliance coherence) + +--- + +## Consequences + +### Positive + +- **Category-defining**: Coherence-native, not VM-native. No existing hypervisor operates on graph-partitioned coherence domains as a first-class primitive. +- **Agent-optimized**: Partitions fit agent workloads (small, fast-switching, WASM-compatible) better than full VMs. +- **Memory-safe by construction**: Rust eliminates use-after-free, buffer overflow, and data race classes that account for ~70% of kernel CVEs in C-based systems. +- **Auditable by default**: Witness-native operation means the audit trail is not a separate subsystem but a core kernel object. +- **Leverages existing work**: Direct integration with RuVector's `mincut`, `sparsifier`, and `solver` crates avoids reimplementing graph algorithms. +- **Minimal attack surface**: No Linux dependency, no KVM ioctl surface, no legacy device models. + +### Negative + +- **Higher conceptual complexity**: Coherence domains, cut pressure, and graph-driven scheduling are less familiar than VM/process abstractions. Documentation and developer onboarding require extra investment. +- **Algorithmic cost of dynamic mincut**: Mincut at the wrong granularity or frequency can become a scheduling bottleneck. Hard budget (DC-2) and stale-cut fallback are mandatory. Mincut must NEVER block scheduling. +- **Three-system coupling risk**: RVM is simultaneously hypervisor + graph engine + agent runtime. Without strict layering discipline (DC-5), everything depends on everything and debugging becomes impossible. +- **No commodity ecosystem**: Cannot run unmodified Linux binaries. No free compatibility with existing container or VM tooling. +- **No formal verification posture initially**: The capability model provides safety properties, but machine-checked proofs are deferred. This limits adoption in safety-critical domains until post-v1 verification work completes. + +--- + +## Rejected Alternatives + +| Alternative | Reason for Rejection | +|-------------|---------------------| +| **KVM-based VMM (Firecracker model)** | Does not create a new abstraction. Still Linux-dependent. Cannot achieve sub-10-microsecond partition switch through KVM exit path. | +| **seL4 clone** | Over-constrains v1 delivery speed. Formal verification adds years to timeline. seL4's abstraction is still process/thread-centric, not coherence-centric. | +| **C implementation** | Wrong language for a proof/witness/ownership-heavy design. Rust's type system enforces capability discipline at compile time. C would require runtime checks for properties Rust guarantees statically. | +| **Cloud-first target** | RVM's strongest advantage is edge/appliance coherence where workloads are bounded and latency-sensitive. Cloud VMs are well-served by existing solutions. | + +--- + +## Implementation Milestones + +### Critical Path Phases + +The milestones are grouped into four phases with strict dependencies. **Phase 1 must succeed or nothing else matters.** + +#### Phase 1: Foundation (M0-M1) — "Can it boot and isolate?" + +| Milestone | Deliverable | Gate | +|-----------|-------------|------| +| **M0** | Bare-metal Rust boot on QEMU (no KVM).

However, ADR-132 describes the partition as a first-class object only at the architectural level. This ADR specifies the concrete object model: what a partition contains, how it is created and destroyed, how it relates to hardware-enforced isolation, and how its lifecycle operations interact with the proof system and witness log. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **A partition is not a VM, but the boundaries must be precise**: Without a rigorous object model, implementers will drift toward VM-like abstractions (emulated hardware, guest kernels, BIOS). The partition abstraction must be defined with enough precision that the implementation cannot accidentally become a VMM. +2. **Ownership semantics need type-level enforcement**: Memory regions, capability tables, and communication edges belong to exactly one partition at a time. Transfer must consume the source reference. Rust's move semantics make this enforceable at compile time, but only if the types are designed correctly. +3. **Split and merge are the novel operations**: No existing hypervisor supports live partition splitting along a graph-theoretic cut boundary. The object model must define what happens to every sub-object (tasks, regions, capabilities, edges, leases) during a split or merge. +4. **Partition count must be bounded**: Unbounded partition creation would exhaust page table memory, capability table slots, and witness log bandwidth. The system needs an explicit limit and a clear error path when the limit is reached. +5. **Partition switch latency is a hard target**: ADR-132 specifies < 10 microseconds. The object model must be designed so that a switch involves only TTBR write + TLB invalidation + register restore, not data structure walks or allocation. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| seL4 | CNode-based capability model, formally verified object creation | Capability table structure; RVM adapts CNode to partition scope | +| Xen | Domain as isolation unit, hypercall interface | Historical precedent for domain-based (not process-based) isolation | +| Theseus OS | Rust ownership for OS resource management | Validates move-semantic resource handles in kernel context | +| RedLeaf | Cross-domain isolation via Rust type system | Informs typed region ownership and transfer protocol | +| Firecracker | MicroVM lifecycle (create, pause, resume, snapshot) | Lifecycle state machine comparison; RVM adds split/merge/hibernate | +| RuVector mincut crate | Graph-theoretic minimum cut | Direct dependency for split decisions | + +--- + +## Decision + +Define the partition as a first-class kernel object with the following properties. + +### 1.

Memory Ownership Model + +Partitions own memory regions with move semantics. The `OwnedRegion

` type is non-copyable and non-clonable: + +```rust +/// A typed, non-copyable memory region handle. +/// +/// Move semantics enforce single-owner invariant at compile time. +/// Transfer consumes self, preventing use-after-transfer. +pub struct OwnedRegion { + handle: RegionHandle, + owner: PartitionId, + _policy: PhantomData

, +} + +// OwnedRegion does NOT implement Copy or Clone. +// Transfer is the only way to change ownership: + +impl OwnedRegion

{ + /// Transfer ownership to another partition. + /// Consumes self. Updates stage-2 tables for both partitions. + /// Emits RegionTransfer witness. + pub fn transfer( + self, // <-- consumes + new_owner: PartitionId, + proof: &ProofToken, + witness: &mut WitnessLog, + ) -> Result, PartitionError> { + witness.record(WitnessRecord::region_transfer( + self.handle, self.owner, new_owner, proof.tier(), + )); + Ok(OwnedRegion { + handle: self.handle, + owner: new_owner, + _policy: PhantomData, + }) + } +} +``` + +During a split, regions are redistributed based on which side of the cut their owning tasks fall on. Each region moves to exactly one of the two new partitions. No region is duplicated. + +### 7. Split and Merge Operations + +**Split preconditions (P2 policy validation):** + +1. Partition is in Running state +2. CutResult was computed within the current epoch (not stale beyond configurable threshold) +3. Both sides of the cut contain at least one task +4. The partition holds a capability with SPLIT right +5. System partition count < MAX_PARTITIONS - 1 (need two new slots) + +**Split procedure:** + +1. Suspend all tasks in the partition +2. Allocate two new PartitionIds and stage-2 table roots +3. For each task: assign to side_a or side_b based on the CutResult membership +4. For each region: assign to the side that owns the majority of its accessing tasks (tie-break: side_a) +5. For each capability: duplicate into both new capability tables (capabilities are not exclusive) +6. For each CommEdge: if both endpoints are on the same side, move the edge; if endpoints span the cut, the edge becomes an inter-partition edge between the two new partitions +7. Compute fresh CoherenceScore and CutPressure for both new partitions +8. Emit PartitionSplit witness record +9. Destroy the original partition +10. Transition both new partitions to Running + +**Merge preconditions (P2 policy validation):** + +1. Both partitions are in Suspended state +2. At least one CommEdge connects them +3. Predicted merged coherence score exceeds `merge_coherence_threshold` +4. Both partitions hold capabilities with MERGE right +5. Combined task count does not exceed per-partition task limit +6. System partition count >= 2 (cannot merge the last partition) + +### 8. Partition-to-Graph Mapping + +Each partition is a node in the coherence graph. CommEdges are weighted edges: + +``` +Coherence Graph: + + [Partition A] ----(w=1200)---- [Partition B] + | | + | (w=50) | (w=800) + | | + [Partition C] ----(w=300)----- [Partition D] + +Edge weight = accumulated message bytes, decayed per epoch. +Mincut identifies the cheapest set of edges to sever. +``` + +The PressureEngine maintains this graph and runs the mincut crate within the DC-2 time budget (50 microseconds per epoch). The resulting CutPressure on each partition informs both the scheduler (cut_pressure_boost) and the structural change evaluator (split/merge triggers). + +### 9. Partition Switch Performance + +The switch path is the hottest code in the system. It must complete in < 10 microseconds: + +``` +switch(from, to): + 1. Save from's general-purpose registers to TCB (~50 ns) + 2. Save from's system registers (SP_EL1, ELR_EL1) (~20 ns) + 3. Write VTTBR_EL2 with to's stage-2 root + VMID (~10 ns) + 4. TLBI VMID (invalidate from's TLB entries) (~1-5 us, arch-dependent) + 5. Restore to's system registers (~20 ns) + 6. Restore to's general-purpose registers (~50 ns) + 7. ERET to to's execution context (~10 ns) +``` + +No witness is emitted on the switch hot path. Partition switches are witnessed indirectly through scheduler epoch records (WitnessRecordKind::StructuralChange), which log scheduling decisions in bulk. + +### 10. PartitionManager + +```rust +/// Manages the system-wide set of partitions. +pub struct PartitionManager { + /// Active partitions, indexed by PartitionId. + partitions: BTreeMap, + + /// Free VMID pool. + vmid_pool: BitSet<256>, + + /// Next PartitionId sequence number. + next_id: u64, + + /// Root capability for partition creation authority. + root_cap: CapHandle, +} + +impl PartitionManager { + /// Current partition count. + pub fn count(&self) -> usize { + self.partitions.len() + } + + /// Whether a new partition can be created. + pub fn can_create(&self) -> bool { + self.count() < MAX_PARTITIONS && self.vmid_pool.any_set() + } +} +``` + +### 11. Each Partition Has Its Own TTBR + +On AArch64, each partition's stage-2 tables are activated by writing VTTBR_EL2: + +```rust +/// Activate this partition's stage-2 address space. +/// +/// After this call, all EL1/EL0 memory accesses go through +/// this partition's stage-2 translation tables. +pub unsafe fn activate_stage2(partition: &Partition) { + let vttbr = partition.stage2.root_phys_addr() + | ((partition.id.vmid() as u64) << 48); + core::arch::asm!( + "msr vttbr_el2, {v}", + "isb", + v = in(reg) vttbr, + ); +} +``` + +On RISC-V the equivalent is writing `hgatp`. On x86-64 the equivalent is loading the EPTP into the VMCS. + +--- + +## Consequences + +### Positive + +- **Fine-grained agent isolation**: Partitions are lighter than VMs (no emulated hardware, no guest kernel). Multiple agents can run in separate partitions with hardware-enforced isolation at sub-10-microsecond switch cost. +- **Split/merge enables dynamic restructuring**: When the coherence graph changes (agents start communicating more or less), the system can restructure its isolation boundaries to match. No existing hypervisor offers this. +- **Move-semantic ownership eliminates use-after-free**: The `OwnedRegion

` type makes it impossible to access a transferred region from the old owner. This is a compile-time guarantee, not a runtime check. +- **Bounded partition count prevents resource exhaustion**: The explicit MAX_PARTITIONS limit and VMID pool ensure that page table memory, capability table slots, and witness log bandwidth are always bounded. +- **Clear degradation story**: If the coherence engine is absent (DC-1), partitions still work. They just do not split, merge, or migrate based on graph pressure. The partition object model does not depend on the coherence engine. + +### Negative + +- **Higher complexity than a simple process model**: Partitions with split/merge, tiered memory, and graph-derived metrics are conceptually more complex than Unix processes or Xen domains. Developer onboarding requires understanding the coherence domain concept. +- **Split redistributes state non-trivially**: Deciding which regions belong to which side of a cut is not always obvious (what if a region is accessed by tasks on both sides?). The tie-breaking rule (majority accessor, then side_a) is simple but may not be optimal in all cases. +- **MAX_PARTITIONS limits scale**: 256 partitions (constrained by ARM VMID width) may be insufficient for very large agent deployments. Mitigation: VMID recycling for hibernated partitions, and future hardware with wider VMID spaces. +- **Switch witness gap**: Not witnessing individual partition switches means the audit trail has epoch-granularity gaps for scheduling decisions. This is an acceptable tradeoff for < 10 microsecond switch latency, but auditors must be aware of the gap. + +--- + +## Rejected Alternatives + +| Alternative | Reason for Rejection | +|-------------|---------------------| +| **VM-style partition with emulated devices** | Defeats the purpose of the coherence domain abstraction. Adds emulation overhead. Makes split/merge impossible (cannot split emulated hardware state). | +| **Unbounded partition count** | Exhausts VMID space, page table memory, and witness log bandwidth. A system that can create partitions without bound will eventually OOM in the kernel. | +| **Copy-semantic region handles** | Allows aliased ownership, which defeats the single-owner invariant. Two partitions holding the same region handle can mutate concurrently, violating isolation. | +| **Witness on every switch** | At 64 bytes per witness and potentially thousands of switches per second, this would consume witness log bandwidth and add latency to the hot path. Epoch-level scheduler witnesses are sufficient. | +| **Lazy split (copy-on-write between halves)** | Adds a fault handler to the critical path. Violates the no-demand-paging design principle (Section 4.5 of the architecture document). Explicit region redistribution is simpler and deterministic. | + +--- + +## References + +- Barham, P., et al. "Xen and the Art of Virtualization." SOSP 2003. +- Klein, G., et al.

ADR-132 specifies this at the architectural level, and the architecture document (Section 8) sketches the record layout and witness kinds. This ADR specifies the exact binary schema, hash-chaining protocol, storage architecture, replay semantics, and performance constraints for the witness subsystem. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **No witness, no mutation**: This is a core invariant (INV-3). Witness emission is not an afterthought or a logging layer -- it is part of the privileged action itself. If the witness cannot be written, the mutation must not proceed. The schema must be designed so that emission never fails under normal operation. +2. **64-byte cache-line alignment is non-negotiable**: Variable-length records require parsing, allocation, or pointer chasing. In a hypervisor where witness emission happens on every privileged action (including in the scheduler tick path), any allocation or branch misprediction is unacceptable. Fixed 64-byte records aligned to cache lines eliminate these costs. +3. **Tamper evidence requires hash chaining**: The witness log must be tamper-evident. If any record is modified or deleted, the chain breaks. FNV-1a is chosen for its speed (< 50 ns for 64 bytes) and simplicity, not for cryptographic strength. Cryptographic signing is optional (TEE-backed, via the WitnessSigner trait) for high-assurance deployments. +4. **The witness kind enum must cover all privileged actions**: If a privileged action exists that has no witness kind, the system has a gap in its audit trail. The enum must be comprehensive and extensible. +5. **Replay must be deterministic**: Given a checkpoint and a witness log segment, replaying the segment must produce identical state. This requires that the witness record captures enough information to reconstruct the action without ambiguity. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| seL4 kernel log | Minimal tracing for verified kernels | Validates low-overhead kernel event logging; RVM goes further with mandatory chaining | +| TPM 2.0 Event Log | Hash-chained platform event records | Hash-chaining protocol for tamper evidence; RVM adapts this to per-action granularity | +| Linux ftrace | Ring-buffer tracing with per-CPU buffers | Ring buffer overflow strategy; RVM adds hash chaining and mandatory emission | +| Certificate Transparency (RFC 6962) | Append-only Merkle-tree log | Append-only log design; RVM uses linear hash chain (simpler, sufficient for single-node) | +| ARM TrustZone / CCA | Hardware-backed attestation | Informs the optional TEE-backed WitnessSigner for high-assurance deployments | +| FNV-1a | Fast, non-cryptographic hash | Chosen for witness chaining: < 50 ns for 64 bytes, no allocation, deterministic | + +--- + +## Decision + +### 1.

Hash-Chaining Protocol + +Each record includes the FNV-1a hash of the previous record (`prev_hash`) and a self-hash (`record_hash`). Together these form a tamper-evident chain. + +```rust +// ruvix-witness/src/chain.rs + +/// FNV-1a hash over a byte slice. +/// +/// Chosen for speed (< 50 ns for 64 bytes), not cryptographic strength. +/// For tamper resistance against a capable adversary, use the optional +/// TEE-backed WitnessSigner (see Section 9). +pub fn fnv1a(data: &[u8]) -> u64 { + let mut hash: u64 = 0xcbf29ce484222325; // FNV offset basis + for &byte in data { + hash ^= byte as u64; + hash = hash.wrapping_mul(0x00000100000001B3); // FNV prime + } + hash +} + +/// Compute the record hash for a witness record. +/// +/// Hashes bytes [0..48] (everything except prev_hash, record_hash, aux). +/// This allows verification without knowing the chain context. +pub fn compute_record_hash(record: &WitnessRecord) -> u64 { + let bytes = unsafe { + core::slice::from_raw_parts( + record as *const WitnessRecord as *const u8, + 48, // Hash the first 48 bytes only + ) + }; + fnv1a(bytes) +} + +/// Compute the chain hash: FNV-1a of the full 64-byte previous record. +/// +/// This is stored in the next record's prev_hash field. +pub fn compute_chain_hash(prev_record: &WitnessRecord) -> u64 { + let bytes = unsafe { + core::slice::from_raw_parts( + prev_record as *const WitnessRecord as *const u8, + 64, + ) + }; + fnv1a(bytes) +} +``` + +**Chain construction:** + +``` +Record 0 (boot attestation): + prev_hash = 0 (genesis) + record_hash = fnv1a(record_0[0..48]) + +Record 1: + prev_hash = fnv1a(record_0[0..64]) + record_hash = fnv1a(record_1[0..48]) + +Record N: + prev_hash = fnv1a(record_{N-1}[0..64]) + record_hash = fnv1a(record_N[0..48]) +``` + +**Verification**: Walk the chain from any starting record. Recompute `fnv1a(record[0..64])` for each record and compare with the next record's `prev_hash`. Any mismatch indicates tampering or corruption. + +### 4. Storage Architecture: Ring Buffer with Overflow + +```rust +// ruvix-witness/src/log.rs + +/// The kernel witness log. +/// +/// In-memory: append-only ring buffer backed by physically contiguous +/// pages in Hot tier memory. When the ring buffer wraps, the oldest +/// segment is compressed and moved to Warm tier. +/// +/// Overflow to persistent storage: Warm-tier segments are periodically +/// serialized to Cold tier (block device or network). +pub struct WitnessLog { + /// Ring buffer of witness records. + /// Capacity: RING_CAPACITY records (power of two for mask indexing). + ring: *mut WitnessRecord, + + /// Ring buffer capacity in records. + capacity: usize, + + /// Current write position (monotonically increasing; mask with capacity - 1). + write_pos: AtomicU64, + + /// Read position for overflow drain (tracks what has been flushed). + drain_pos: u64, + + /// Running chain hash (hash of the most recently written record). + chain_hash: AtomicU64, + + /// Sequence counter. + sequence: AtomicU64, + + /// Physical pages backing the ring buffer. + pages: ArrayVec, + + /// Overflow segments that have been compressed to Warm tier. + overflow_segments: ArrayVec, +} + +/// Default ring buffer: 16 MB = 262,144 records of 64 bytes. +/// +/// At 100,000 privileged actions per second, this gives ~2.6 seconds +/// of hot storage before overflow drain is needed. +pub const WITNESS_LOG_MAX_PAGES: usize = 4096; // 4096 * 4KB = 16 MB +pub const RING_CAPACITY: usize = 16 * 1024 * 1024 / 64; // 262,144 records +``` + +**Overflow protocol:** + +1. A background drain task runs at low priority in the hypervisor +2. When `write_pos - drain_pos > capacity / 2`, the drain task activates +3. The drain task reads records from `[drain_pos..drain_pos + SEGMENT_SIZE]` +4. Records are LZ4-compressed and written to a Warm-tier region +5. A WitnessSegment handle is recorded for later retrieval +6. `drain_pos` advances +7. If Warm tier is full, segments are serialized to Cold tier (block device) + +The ring buffer never blocks the writer. If the drain cannot keep up (catastrophic scenario), the oldest un-drained records are overwritten. This is detected by a sequence gap and recorded as a `RecoveryEnter` witness when the drain catches up. + +### 5. Emission Protocol: No Witness, No Mutation + +Witness emission is embedded in the privileged action, not called after it. The pattern is: + +```rust +/// Example: creating a new partition. +/// +/// The witness record is emitted BEFORE the mutation is committed. +/// If witness emission fails (e.g., ring buffer full AND drain dead), +/// the mutation does not proceed. +pub fn create_partition( + &mut self, + config: PartitionConfig, + parent_cap: CapHandle, + proof: &ProofToken, +) -> Result { + // 1. Verify proof (P1 capability check) + self.proof_engine.verify(parent_cap, CapRights::WRITE, proof)?; + + // 2. Allocate partition ID + let id = self.partition_mgr.allocate_id()?; + + // 3. Emit witness BEFORE committing + self.witness_log.emit(WitnessRecord::new( + ActionKind::PartitionCreate, + proof.tier(), + self.current_partition().id.as_u32(), + id.as_u32(), + parent_cap.hash_truncated(), + config.encode_payload(), + ))?; + + // 4. Now commit the mutation + self.partition_mgr.commit_create(id, config)?; + + Ok(id) +} +``` + +If `emit()` returns `Err`, the partition is not created. The invariant **no witness, no mutation** is enforced by control flow: the mutation call is unreachable if emission fails. + +### 6. Emission Performance: < 500 ns + +Witness emission must not bottleneck the scheduler or any privileged action. The budget is 500 nanoseconds. + +**Breakdown:** + +| Step | Cost | Notes | +|------|------|-------| +| Populate record fields | ~20 ns | Direct field writes, no allocation | +| Read timestamp (CNTVCT_EL0 / rdtsc) | ~10 ns | Single register read | +| Compute record_hash (FNV-1a of 48 bytes) | ~40 ns | Tight loop, no branches | +| Load prev chain_hash (atomic load) | ~5 ns | Cache-hot atomic | +| Write record to ring buffer | ~10 ns | Single 64-byte store (cache-line write) | +| Update chain_hash (atomic store) | ~5 ns | Release store | +| Increment sequence + write_pos (2x atomic) | ~10 ns | Release stores | +| **Total** | **~100 ns** | Well within 500 ns budget | + +No allocation. No lock. No syscall. No branch on the fast path. The ring buffer write is a single cache-line-aligned store. + +### 7. Replay Protocol + +Given a checkpoint and a witness log segment, the system can deterministically reconstruct state at any point in the log. + +```rust +// ruvix-witness/src/replay.rs + +/// Replay a witness log segment from a checkpoint. +/// +/// Each record is applied in sequence. The record contains enough +/// information to reconstruct the action: +/// - action_kind identifies the operation +/// - actor_partition_id + target_object_id identify the operands +/// - payload + aux carry action-specific data +/// - proof_tier indicates which verification was performed +/// +/// Replay is deterministic: same checkpoint + same log = same state. +pub fn replay( + checkpoint: &Checkpoint, + segment: &[WitnessRecord], +) -> Result { + let mut state = checkpoint.restore()?; + + for record in segment { + // Verify chain integrity during replay + let expected_prev = state.last_witness_hash(); + if record.prev_hash != expected_prev { + return Err(ReplayError::ChainBreak { + sequence: record.sequence, + expected: expected_prev, + found: record.prev_hash, + }); + } + + // Verify record self-integrity + let computed = compute_record_hash(record); + if record.record_hash != computed { + return Err(ReplayError::RecordCorrupted { + sequence: record.sequence, + }); + } + + // Apply the witnessed action + state.apply(record)?; + } + + Ok(state) +} +``` + +**What replay requires from each action kind:** + +| ActionKind | Payload Encodes | Replay Produces | +|------------|----------------|-----------------| +| PartitionCreate | config flags | New partition in state | +| PartitionSplit | new_id_a (high 32), new_id_b (low 32) | Two partitions from one | +| RegionTransfer | from_partition (high 32), to_partition (low 32) | Ownership change | +| RegionPromote | from_tier (flags high byte), to_tier (flags low byte) | Tier state change | +| CapabilityGrant | rights bitmap in payload | New capability in table | +| CommEdgeCreate | source (high 32), dest (low 32) | New edge in graph | +| SchedulerEpoch | epoch_number | Scheduling state advance | +| CheckpointCreated | checkpoint_id in payload | New recovery point | + +### 8. Audit Queries + +The witness log supports three query modes: + +```rust +/// Scan witness records by partition. +pub fn scan_by_partition( + log: &WitnessLog, + partition_id: u32, +) -> impl Iterator { + log.iter().filter(move |r| r.actor_partition_id == partition_id + || r.target_object_id == partition_id) +} + +/// Scan witness records by time range. +pub fn scan_by_time( + log: &WitnessLog, + start_ns: u64, + end_ns: u64, +) -> impl Iterator { + log.iter().filter(move |r| + r.timestamp_ns >= start_ns && r.timestamp_ns <= end_ns) +} + +/// Scan witness records by action kind. +pub fn scan_by_kind( + log: &WitnessLog, + kind: ActionKind, +) -> impl Iterator { + log.iter().filter(move |r| r.action_kind == kind) +} +``` + +Because records are fixed-size and sequentially stored, scanning is a linear pass over contiguous memory. For the 16 MB hot ring buffer, a full scan touches 262,144 records and completes in < 1 ms on modern hardware. + +### 9. Optional TEE-Backed Signing + +For high-assurance deployments (safety-critical, regulatory), the witness log can be signed using a TEE (TrustZone, CCA, or SGX). The `WitnessSigner` trait abstracts the signing backend: + +```rust +/// Optional cryptographic signing for witness records. +/// +/// In the default configuration, witnesses use FNV-1a chaining only +/// (fast, tamper-evident against accidental corruption, not against +/// a privileged adversary). For high-assurance deployments, a TEE +/// can provide cryptographic non-repudiation. +pub trait WitnessSigner: Send + Sync { + /// Sign a witness record. The signature is stored in the aux field. + /// + /// Implementations must complete in < 10 microseconds to avoid + /// becoming a bottleneck. ECDSA with hardware acceleration + /// on ARM CCA achieves ~5 microseconds. + fn sign(&self, record: &mut WitnessRecord) -> Result<(), SignError>; + + /// Verify a signature on a witness record. + fn verify(&self, record: &WitnessRecord) -> Result; +} + +/// No-op signer for deployments without TEE. +pub struct NullSigner; + +impl WitnessSigner for NullSigner { + fn sign(&self, _record: &mut WitnessRecord) -> Result<(), SignError> { + Ok(()) // aux field remains zero + } + fn verify(&self, _record: &WitnessRecord) -> Result { + Ok(true) // No signature to check + } +} +``` + +When a TEE signer is active, the `aux` field carries a truncated ECDSA signature (64 bits of a 256-bit signature). The full signature is stored in a parallel side-table for records that require non-repudiation. This keeps the record at 64 bytes while enabling cryptographic verification when needed. + +### 10. Integration with the Proof System + +Witnesses are inputs to P3 deep proofs. A P3 proof can reference a witness log segment to demonstrate that a sequence of actions occurred in a specific order with specific authorizations: + +``` +P3 proof structure: + - Claim: "Partition X was created by actor Y with capability Z" + - Evidence: witness record at sequence N with: + action_kind = PartitionCreate + actor_partition_id = Y + target_object_id = X + capability_hash = hash(Z) + - Chain verification: prev_hash at N matches hash of record N-1 + - Optional: TEE signature in aux field +``` + +This closes the loop between the proof system and the witness system: proofs authorize mutations, witnesses record that the authorized mutation occurred, and deep proofs can reference witnesses as evidence. + +--- + +## Consequences + +### Positive + +- **Deterministic replay**: Any system state can be reconstructed from a checkpoint plus the witness log segment since that checkpoint. This enables debugging, forensic analysis, and recovery without global reboots. +- **Tamper-evident by construction**: Hash chaining means any modification to any record is detectable by walking the chain. No separate integrity-checking daemon is needed. +- **Zero-allocation emission**: The 64-byte fixed record and ring buffer design means witness emission never allocates, never locks, and completes in ~100 ns. This is well within the 500 ns budget and cannot bottleneck the scheduler. +- **Comprehensive audit coverage**: The ~30 action kinds cover every privileged operation. Audit queries by partition, time range, or action kind are linear scans over contiguous memory. +- **Extensible without breaking format**: The `ActionKind` enum has 256 slots; v1 uses ~30. New action kinds can be added without changing the record layout. The `flags`, `payload`, and `aux` fields provide per-kind extension points. +- **Optional TEE signing scales security**: The NullSigner costs nothing. TEE signing adds ~5 microseconds per record but provides cryptographic non-repudiation. Deployments choose their assurance level. + +### Negative + +- **64 bytes per privileged action is not free**: At 100,000 actions per second, the witness log generates ~6 MB/s. The 16 MB ring buffer fills in ~2.6 seconds. The drain task must keep up, and Warm/Cold tier storage must be provisioned. +- **FNV-1a is not cryptographically secure**: A privileged adversary with kernel access can forge records and recompute the chain. FNV-1a provides tamper evidence against accidental corruption, not against sophisticated attack. The TEE signer mitigates this but is optional. +- **Payload is only 8 bytes**: Some actions carry more context than 8 bytes (e.g., a split operation ideally records the full CutResult). The design accepts this limitation: the 8-byte payload encodes the essential identifiers, and the full context can be recovered by replaying the action against the checkpoint state. +- **Ring buffer overflow loses records**: If the drain task falls behind, old records are overwritten. The system detects this via sequence gaps and logs a recovery event, but the overwritten records are gone. Mitigation: size the ring buffer and drain rate for the expected action frequency. +- **No indexing**: Audit queries are linear scans. For the hot ring buffer (262K records) this is fast. For archived segments (potentially millions of records), a secondary index would improve query performance. Deferred to post-v1. + +--- + +## Rejected Alternatives + +| Alternative | Reason for Rejection | +|-------------|---------------------| +| **Variable-length records** | Requires allocation or parsing on the emission path. Incompatible with the < 500 ns budget. Breaks cache-line alignment. | +| **JSON or Protobuf encoding** | Serialization overhead (> 1 microsecond) and variable-length output. Inappropriate for a kernel-level audit system. | +| **Cryptographic hash (SHA-256) for chaining** | SHA-256 costs ~300 ns for 64 bytes, consuming the entire emission budget for hashing alone. FNV-1a at ~40 ns leaves room for all other operations. SHA-256 is available via the optional TEE signer for high-assurance needs. | +| **Per-partition separate logs** | Fragments the audit trail. Cross-partition queries require merging N logs. A single global log with partition ID field enables both per-partition and global queries. | +| **Post-hoc logging (log after mutation)** | Violates INV-3 (no witness, no mutation). If the system crashes between mutation and log, the action is unwitnessed. Emit-before-commit ensures the witness exists or the mutation does not happen. | +| **Blocking on log full** | A full log would block privileged actions, including the scheduler. The ring buffer with background drain avoids this. Record loss on overflow is preferable to system deadlock. | + +--- + +## References + +- ARM Architecture Reference Manual, Chapter D7: The Performance Monitors Extension. +- Fowler, G., Noll, L.C., Vo, K.-P., "FNV Hash." http://www.isthe.com/chongo/tech/comp/fnv/ +- Laurie, B., Langley, A., Kasper, E., "Certificate Transparency."

SHA-256 is now the default (feature-gated `crypto-sha256`, enabled by default). FNV-1a is retained only behind the `fnv-fallback` feature flag for non-security hash table indexing. +- **`NullSigner` is no longer the default**: The `WitnessSigner` trait now defaults to `HmacSha256WitnessSigner` (HMAC-SHA256, constant-time verify). `NullSigner` is gated behind `#[cfg(any(test, feature = "null-signer"))]` and cannot be instantiated in release builds without the `fnv-fallback` feature. +- **`aux` field carries HMAC signatures**: The `aux` field (offset 56, 8 bytes) is now used to store truncated HMAC-SHA256 signatures from the `WitnessSigner`. `signed_append()` populates this field after chain-hash metadata is set.

The proof system is called out as design constraint DC-3 with an explicit warning that conflating its three layers is a design error. The security model document (`docs/research/ruvm/security-model.md`) specifies six verification steps, three proof tiers, constant-time verification, and nonce-based replay prevention. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **Conflation risk**: Early prototypes and reviews identified a recurring tendency to treat "the proof system" as one monolithic verifier. This collapses three fundamentally different concerns (token validity, structural invariant checking, cryptographic attestation) into a single code path with incompatible latency budgets. +2. **Latency budgets differ by four orders of magnitude**: P1 must complete in under 1 microsecond (bitmap comparison on the syscall hot path). P3 may take up to 10 milliseconds (hash chain validation, cross-partition attestation). Forcing both through the same code path either makes the fast path slow or the deep path shallow. +3. **v1 scope must be bounded**: The full deep proof layer (P3) requires cryptographic infrastructure (signing keys, attestation protocols, cross-node trust) that depends on hardware bring-up (Phase D in the security model roadmap). Shipping P1 + P2 first and deferring P3 is the correct phasing. +4. **seL4 capability model provides a proven foundation**: The derivation tree with monotonic attenuation, epoch-based revocation, and bounded delegation depth (max 8) is well-understood. RVM should adopt this model rather than invent a new one. +5. **Timing side channels in verification**: A naive verifier that short-circuits on the first failing check leaks information about which check failed. The security model mandates constant-time verification at P2 and above. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| seL4 | Formally verified capability derivation tree | Direct model for RVM capability derivation; mint, derive (attenuate), revoke | +| CHERI | Hardware-enforced capability pointers | Validates capability-as-unforgeable-token approach; RVM uses software capabilities | +| Capsicum (FreeBSD) | Capability mode for POSIX processes | Demonstrates capability discipline in practical systems | +| ARM CCA (Confidential Compute) | Realm attestation tokens | Informs P3 attestation design (deferred to post-v1) | +| Dennis & Van Horn (1966) | Original capability concept | Foundational reference for authority-is-the-token principle | +| RVM security model | 6-step verification, 3 tiers, constant-time | Direct specification for this implementation | + +--- + +## Decision + +Implement the proof verifier as **three distinct layers** with separate traits, separate latency budgets, and separate compilation units. v1 ships P1 + P2 only.

Bitmap comparison. No allocation, no branching on secret data. | **Ship** | +| **P2** | Policy Validation | < 100 us | Validates structural invariants: ownership chain valid? Region bounds legal? Lease not expired? Delegation depth within limit (max 8)? Nonce not replayed? Time window not exceeded? | **Ship** | +| **P3** | Deep Proof | < 10 ms | Cryptographic verification: hash chain validation, cross-partition attestation, semantic proofs, coherence certificates. Only for high-stakes mutations (migration, merge, device lease to untrusted partition). | **Deferred** | + +### Design Principles + +- **Proof tokens are unforgeable kernel objects**: User space holds an opaque `ProofHandle`. The kernel resolves it to the actual `ProofToken` through a per-task table, same pattern as capability handles. +- **Proof verification is synchronous and inline**: The verifier runs in the syscall path. It does not use async callbacks, deferred work queues, or interrupt-driven completion. The caller blocks until verification completes. +- **Failed proof = mutation rejected + witness emitted**: A `PROOF_REJECTED` witness record is emitted for every failed verification. This is non-negotiable for auditability. +- **Capability model follows seL4 derivation tree**: Three operations on capabilities: `mint` (create from kernel authority), `derive` (attenuate rights, child of parent), `revoke` (epoch-based propagation through derivation tree). +- **Monotonic attenuation**: Derived capabilities can ONLY lose rights, never gain. Enforced at the type level in `Capability::derive()`. +- **Constant-time at P2**: All P2 checks execute regardless of early failures. The result is a single boolean computed from the conjunction of all checks. + +--- + +## Architecture + +### Crate Structure + +``` +crates/ruvix/crates/proof/ +├── Cargo.toml +├── src/ +│ ├── lib.rs # Module root, feature-gated exports +│ ├── traits.rs # ProofVerifier trait with verify_p1(), verify_p2(), verify_p3() +│ ├── p1_capability.rs # P1: bitmap rights check, token existence +│ ├── p2_policy.rs # P2: structural invariant validation (constant-time) +│ ├── p3_deep.rs # P3: stub in v1, cryptographic verification post-v1 +│ ├── capability.rs # Capability struct, derive(), mint(), revoke() +│ ├── derivation_tree.rs # seL4-style derivation tree with depth tracking +│ ├── nonce_tracker.rs # Ring buffer of 64 nonces for replay prevention +│ ├── token.rs # ProofToken, ProofHandle, ProofAttestation types +│ ├── rights.rs # CapRights bitmap (7 rights) +│ ├── error.rs # ProofError variants +│ └── witness.rs # PROOF_REJECTED witness emission +└── tests/ + ├── p1_tests.rs # P1 unit tests + ├── p2_tests.rs # P2 unit tests + ├── derivation_tests.rs # Derivation tree tests + └── integration.rs # Cross-layer integration tests +``` + +### Trait Definition + +```rust +/// The proof verifier trait.

P3's cryptographic machinery can be developed and tested independently without blocking v1. +- **seL4-proven capability model**: Monotonic attenuation, derivation trees, and epoch-based revocation are well-understood from 15+ years of seL4 deployment. RVM benefits from this proven design without adopting seL4's full verification overhead. +- **Constant-time P2 eliminates timing side channels**: An attacker observing verification latency cannot determine which check failed or how close a forged proof came to passing. +- **Audit completeness via PROOF_REJECTED witnesses**: Every failed verification attempt is logged, enabling forensic analysis of attack patterns and misconfigurations. +- **Replay prevention with bounded memory**: The 64-entry nonce ring buffer prevents replay attacks without unbounded memory growth. + +### Negative + +- **Larger API surface**: Three distinct trait methods (plus supporting types for each layer) create more API surface than a single `verify()` method.

This is acceptable for single-node v1 operation but must be addressed before multi-node mesh deployment. +- **Constant-time P2 is slower than short-circuit**: Executing all checks unconditionally adds a small overhead compared to early-return verification.

Unlike traditional virtual memory systems that treat pages as either resident or swapped, RVM assigns pages to tiers based on cut-value and recency scoring derived from the coherence graph. The memory model is also designed to work without the coherence engine (design constraint DC-1), falling back to static thresholds for tier transitions. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **Traditional VM memory management wastes coherence locality**: Demand paging treats all pages equally. A page that anchors a heavily-used cross-partition communication channel is evicted with the same LRU logic as a page containing stale temporary data. RVM needs memory placement decisions that understand the coupling structure of the workload. +2. **Memory is the scarcest resource on edge/appliance targets**: The Seed profile runs on hardware-constrained devices where RAM is measured in megabytes, not gigabytes. Keeping dormant state as compressed checkpoints rather than raw bytes dramatically extends effective capacity. +3. **Reconstruction from compressed state is a novel capability**: No existing hypervisor stores dormant memory as "witness checkpoint + delta compression" and reconstructs the original state on demand. This enables a form of "memory time travel" where any historical state can be rebuilt from its checkpoint plus the witness replay log. +4. **Tier transition logic is a large bug surface**: Four tiers with compression, decompression, reconstruction, and witness replay create a combinatorial interaction surface. Without disciplined module boundaries, this becomes the system's primary reliability risk. +5. **The memory model must work without the coherence engine**: DC-1 requires that tier transitions function with static thresholds when the coherence engine is absent, degraded, or over budget. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| Firecracker memory balloon | Page-level memory management for microVMs | Baseline comparison; RVM goes beyond single-tier resident/not-resident | +| zswap (Linux) | Compressed swap cache | Validates compressed-in-memory tier approach; RVM formalizes this as the dormant tier | +| Theseus OS | Rust ownership for OS memory management | Informs OwnedRegion with transfer-by-move semantics | +| RedLeaf | Cross-domain memory isolation in Rust | Informs capability-gated shared region design | +| ZRAM (Linux) | Block device backed by compressed RAM | Compression approach for dormant tier; RVM adds reconstruction semantics | +| ARM two-stage translation | VA -> IPA -> PA for hypervisors | Direct model for RVM partition stage-1 + hypervisor stage-2 | +| Buddy allocator (Knuth) | Power-of-two block allocation | Foundation for per-tier free list management | + +--- + +## Decision + +Implement a four-tier memory hierarchy where tier placement is driven by coherence cut-value and recency scoring, dormant state is stored as reconstructable compressed checkpoints, and all memory ownership is enforced through Rust's type system. + +### The Four Tiers + +| Tier | Name | Location | Contents | Residency Rule | +|------|------|----------|----------|----------------| +| **0 (Hot)** | Tile/core-local | Per-core SRAM or L1-adjacent | Active execution state: registers, stack, heap of running partition | Always resident during partition execution. Evicted to warm on context switch if pressure exceeds threshold. | +| **1 (Warm)** | Shared fast memory | Cluster-shared DRAM | Recently-used shared state, IPC buffers, capability tables | Resident if `cut_value + recency_score > eviction_threshold`. Evaluated by coherence engine (or static threshold per DC-1). | +| **2 (Dormant)** | Compressed storage | Main memory, compressed | NOT raw bytes. Stored as witness checkpoint + delta compression. Contains suspended partition state, proof objects, embeddings. | Compressed; reconstructed on demand or at recovery. Promotes to warm when accessed. | +| **3 (Cold)** | RVF-backed archival | Persistent storage (flash/NVMe) | Restore points, historical state snapshots, full RVF checkpoints | Accessed only during recovery or explicit restore. Never promoted automatically. | + +### Design Principles + +- **Explicit promotion/demotion, NOT demand paging**: This is philosophically different from traditional virtual memory. Pages do not fault into residence. The tier transition engine explicitly moves regions between tiers based on scoring. There is no page fault handler that transparently loads from swap. +- **Residency rule**: `cut_value + recency_score > eviction_threshold`. This is continuously recomputed by the coherence engine as the graph evolves. When the coherence engine is absent (DC-1), `cut_value` defaults to 0 and only `recency_score` drives tier placement against a static threshold. +- **Dormant memory is reconstructable**: The dormant tier does not store raw page contents. It stores a witness checkpoint (the last known-good state hash) plus delta compression (the mutations applied since that checkpoint). Reconstruction replays the deltas against the checkpoint to produce the original state. This is the quiet killer feature. +- **Memory ownership via Rust's type system**: `OwnedRegion

` is non-copyable (`!Copy`, `!Clone`) with transfer-by-move semantics. A region belongs to exactly one partition at a time. Transfer between partitions requires a proof-gated `region_transfer` syscall that moves ownership atomically. +- **Zero-copy sharing via capability-gated read-only mapping**: Immutable regions can be mapped into multiple partitions' stage-2 tables as read-only or append-only. No writable page is ever shared between partitions (SEC-005 from the security model). +- **Tier transition logic lives in ONE module**: All promotion, demotion, compression, decompression, and reconstruction logic is in `tier_engine.rs`. No other module performs tier transitions.

It receives scores through the `ResidencyScorer` abstraction, which returns static defaults when the engine is absent. + +--- + +## Bug Surface Warning + +Tier transitions + compression + reconstruction + witness replay = large interaction surface. The following discipline is mandatory: + +1. **ALL tier transition logic in `tier_engine.rs`**: No other module calls `compress()`, `decompress()`, `promote()`, or `demote()`. +2. **Exhaustive state machine testing**: Every valid tier transition (hot->warm, warm->dormant, dormant->cold, and reverses) has dedicated tests. +3. **Invalid transitions are compile-time errors where possible**: The `promote()` and `demote()` match arms reject invalid transitions (e.g., hot->cold skipping intermediate tiers). +4. **Reconstruction is idempotent**: Applying the same delta set to the same checkpoint always produces the same result. This is verified by property-based testing. +5. **Compression round-trip tests**: For every supported algorithm, `decompress(compress(data)) == data`. +6. **Frame zeroing on free**: Every freed frame is zeroed before return to the free list. This prevents cross-partition information leakage through recycled frames. + +--- + +## Consequences + +### Positive + +- **Reconstructable state (quiet killer feature)**: No existing hypervisor stores dormant memory as compressed checkpoints with witness-replay reconstruction. This enables memory time travel, dramatically reduces memory pressure on constrained hardware, and makes the dormant tier qualitatively different from traditional swap. +- **Dramatically reduced memory pressure**: On a Seed device with 64 MB RAM, the dormant tier with zstd compression can store 3-5x more partition state than raw pages. This extends the number of partitions the system can support. +- **Coherence-aware placement**: When the coherence engine is active, memory placement decisions understand the coupling structure of the workload. High-cut-value regions stay warm; low-value regions compress to dormant. This is fundamentally better than LRU. +- **DC-1 compliance**: The memory model degrades gracefully to recency-only scoring when the coherence engine is absent. No kernel boot dependency on Layer 2. +- **Rust ownership prevents double-mapping**: `OwnedRegion

` with move semantics makes it impossible at the type level to have the same region owned by two partitions simultaneously. + +### Negative + +- **Compression and reconstruction add latency**: Promoting a dormant region to warm requires decompression + witness replay. Worst case for a large region with many deltas could approach the P3 proof budget (10 ms). This latency must be accounted for in scheduling. +- **Reconstruction correctness depends on witness log integrity**: If the witness log is corrupted or truncated, reconstruction may produce incorrect state. The chained witness hashing (from the security model) mitigates this, but does not eliminate it. +- **Four tiers increase complexity**: Each additional tier adds transition paths, scoring logic, and failure modes. The strict "one module for all transitions" discipline mitigates this but requires vigilant enforcement. +- **Delta log growth**: The witness delta log grows over time. Without periodic re-checkpointing, dormant regions accumulate large delta histories that slow reconstruction. The tier engine must periodically re-checkpoint long-dormant regions. +- **Explicit promotion adds scheduling complexity**: Unlike demand paging where the hardware faults and the OS transparently loads the page, RVM requires the scheduler or coherence engine to explicitly trigger promotion. This shifts complexity from the fault handler to the decision engine. + +### Risks + +| Risk | Mitigation | +|------|------------| +| Reconstruction produces wrong state due to witness corruption | Chained hash verification before replay; fail-safe: discard corrupted region and restore from cold-tier checkpoint | +| Compression latency spikes on large regions | Bound maximum compressed region size; split large regions before dormant demotion | +| Delta log grows unbounded for long-dormant regions | Re-checkpoint dormant regions when delta count exceeds configurable threshold (default: 1024 deltas) | +| Buddy allocator fragmentation under mixed tier workloads | Per-tier free lists prevent cross-tier fragmentation; compaction pass during recovery mode | +| Coherence engine absence causes all warm regions to evict | Static threshold is calibrated during boot to keep critical system regions warm regardless of scoring | + +--- + +## Testing Strategy + +| Category | Tests | Coverage | +|----------|-------|----------| +| Tier transitions | Every valid transition: hot<->warm, warm<->dormant, dormant<->cold; invalid transitions rejected | State machine completeness | +| Reconstruction | Checkpoint + N deltas -> correct state for N in {0, 1, 10, 100, 1000} | Reconstruction correctness | +| Compression round-trip | zstd and lz4: `decompress(compress(data)) == data` for random data, all-zeros, all-ones | Compression correctness | +| Ownership | Move semantics enforced; double-use after transfer is compile error; Drop zeros and frees frames | Rust type system guarantees | +| Scoring | With coherence engine: cut_value + recency drives placement; without: recency only against static threshold | DC-1 compliance | +| Allocator | Buddy alloc/free, coalescing, per-tier isolation, OOM handling, frame zeroing | Allocator correctness | +| Shared regions | Read-only mapping into multiple partitions; write attempt fails; append-only through syscall only | SEC-005 compliance | +| Integration | Full lifecycle: alloc hot -> use -> demote warm -> demote dormant -> promote warm -> verify state identical | End-to-end | +| Property-based | Random tier transitions on random regions; invariant: tier engine never panics, all transitions produce valid state | Robustness | + +--- + +## References + +- Agache, A., et al.

The architecture document (`docs/research/ruvm/architecture.md`) defines the boot sequence at a high level: assembly reset vector, Rust entry, MMU bring-up, hypervisor mode configuration, kernel object initialization, and scheduler entry. Existing code in `crates/ruvix/crates/aarch64/` provides `boot.rs` and `mmu.rs` stubs that demonstrate EL1-level initialization with identity mapping. + +This ADR specifies the complete boot sequence in detail, including the assembly budget, the HAL trait contract, the per-architecture requirements, the witness instrumentation of each boot stage, and the constraint that boot must succeed without the coherence engine (DC-1). + +### Problem Statement + +1. **No bootloader dependency**: RVM cannot rely on GRUB, U-Boot, or any Linux-based bootloader chain. The reset vector must be self-contained and architecture-specific. +2. **Hypervisor-level entry**: Unlike a traditional kernel that boots at EL1/Ring 0, RVM must enter hypervisor mode (EL2, HS-mode, or VMX root) from the earliest possible point. On QEMU AArch64 virt, firmware drops execution at EL2 directly; on other platforms, elevation is required. +3. **Measured boot**: Every boot stage must emit a witness record with a monotonic timestamp, enabling post-hoc timing analysis and attestation of the boot chain. +4. **Multi-architecture support**: The boot sequence must be structurally identical across AArch64, RISC-V, and x86-64, differing only in the assembly stubs and HAL implementations. +5. **Boot without coherence engine**: Per DC-1, the kernel must reach a running state (scheduling partitions, emitting witnesses) without any Layer 2 involvement. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| Firecracker (AWS) | ~125ms microVM boot on KVM | Performance comparison; RVM targets <250ms without KVM | +| RustyHermit | Bare-metal Rust unikernel boot | Proves Rust reset-vector-to-main viability | +| Theseus OS | Intralingual Rust OS boot | Demonstrates minimal assembly stub pattern | +| ARM Architecture Reference Manual | EL2/EL3 entry, HCR_EL2, VTTBR_EL2 | Authoritative AArch64 hypervisor boot reference | +| RISC-V Privileged Specification | HS-mode, hgatp, hstatus | Authoritative RISC-V hypervisor extension reference | +| Intel SDM Vol. 3 | VMX root mode, VMXON, EPT | Authoritative x86-64 virtualization reference | +| Tock OS | Minimal Cortex-M/Cortex-A boot in Rust | Informs constrained-boot patterns | + +--- + +## Decision + +Implement the RVM bare-metal boot sequence as a seven-stage pipeline that is structurally identical across all target architectures, with platform-specific assembly stubs confined to Stage 0.

The Seed profile represents the smallest viable RVM target -- a hardware-constrained device with 64KB-1MB RAM that may run only one or two partitions. Seed validates that the RVM kernel works at the smallest scale and forces the "kernel without coherence engine" configuration (DC-1) to be a real, tested deployment, not a theoretical fallback. + +No existing hypervisor targets this class of hardware. Traditional hypervisors (KVM, Xen, Firecracker) assume gigabytes of RAM and multi-core processors. Embedded Rust operating systems (Tock, Hubris) target this hardware class but are not hypervisors and do not provide coherence domains. Seed fills the gap: a capability-based, witness-native microkernel that runs on hardware as small as a Cortex-M/R or small Cortex-A. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **Kernel size must be bounded**: If the RVM kernel grows to require megabytes of RAM, Seed becomes impossible. The Seed target acts as a size constraint on kernel design. +2. **No MMU on many embedded targets**: Cortex-M class processors have an MPU (Memory Protection Unit) but no MMU. Stage-2 translation is not available. The kernel must degrade gracefully. +3. **Real-time requirements**: Seed targets (sensor nodes, secure anchors) have hard real-time constraints. Scheduling must be deterministic with bounded worst-case latency. +4. **Power management**: Seed devices are often battery-powered or energy-harvesting. Deep sleep with fast wake and state persistence is mandatory. +5. **Witness integrity on constrained hardware**: The 64-byte witness format may be too expensive for devices with 64KB RAM. A compact variant is needed. +6. **Coherence engine is absent**: Seed devices have neither the RAM nor the CPU budget for graph partitioning. DC-1 must be enforced as a hard constraint, not a fallback. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| Tock OS | Capability-based embedded Rust OS, MPU isolation | Closest existing system to Seed's design goals | +| Hubris (Oxide Computer) | Task-isolated embedded Rust OS, deterministic scheduling | Informs Reflex-mode scheduling and fault isolation | +| Zephyr RTOS | Widely deployed embedded RTOS, extensive driver ecosystem | Baseline comparison for embedded OS capabilities | +| FreeRTOS | Dominant embedded RTOS, minimal footprint | Lower bound on kernel size (~10KB) | +| ARM Cortex-M Architecture | MPU, low-power modes (WFI/WFE, STOP, STANDBY) | Primary Seed hardware target | +| ARM TrustZone-M | Hardware security partitioning for Cortex-M | Potential Seed isolation enhancement (post-v1) | +| nRF52840 (Nordic) | Cortex-M4F, 256KB RAM, 1MB flash, BLE | Reference Seed dev board | +| STM32H7 | Cortex-M7, 1MB RAM, dual-core | Upper-end Seed target | + +--- + +## Decision + +Define the Seed platform profile as the minimum viable RVM deployment and specify its hardware constraints, boot sequence, kernel configuration, and bring-up plan. + +### Hardware Profile + +| Parameter | Minimum | Typical | Maximum | +|-----------|---------|---------|---------| +| RAM | 64 KB | 256 KB | 1 MB | +| Flash / NVM | 256 KB | 1 MB | 4 MB | +| Cores | 1 | 1 | 2 | +| Clock | 16 MHz | 64 MHz | 480 MHz | +| MMU | No (MPU only) | No (MPU only) | Optional | +| FPU | Optional | Yes (single) | Yes (double) | +| Power | Microwatts (sleep) | Milliwatts (active) | < 1W peak | + +### Kernel Configuration for Seed + +The RVM kernel must compile with a `seed` feature flag that constrains its resource usage: + +| Subsystem | Appliance | Seed | Rationale | +|-----------|-----------|------|-----------| +| Coherence engine (Layer 2) | Optional | **Absent** | No RAM or CPU budget for graph operations | +| Agent runtime (WASM) | Available | **Limited** | At most 1 WASM module, or native code only | +| Memory tiers | Hot/Warm/Dormant/Cold | **Hot + Cold only** | No Warm/Dormant -- too constrained for compression tiers | +| Partition count | Unbounded | **1-2** | RAM limits partition table size | +| Witness format | 64-byte standard | **32-byte compact** | Halves per-record cost | +| Capability table | 4096 entries | **64-256 entries** | Proportional to partition count | +| Queue pool | 256 queues | **8-16 queues** | Minimal IPC surface | +| Scheduler mode | Flow + Reflex + Recovery | **Reflex primary** | Hard RT; Flow available but simplified | +| Proof layers | P1 + P2 (+ P3 post-v1) | **P1 only** | P2 policy validation deferred to save cycles | +| CommEdge count | 64 per partition | **4 per partition** | Minimal inter-partition traffic | + +### Boot Sequence (Seed-Specific) + +Seed boot follows the same seven-stage structure as ADR-137 but with platform-specific adaptations: + +| Stage | Seed Adaptation | +|-------|----------------| +| 0: Reset vector | Cortex-M: vector table at 0x0, `Reset_Handler` in assembly.

May use semihosting on dev boards. | +| 3: MMU/MPU bring-up | **MPU-only mode**: Configure MPU regions for kernel code (RO+X), kernel data (RW), peripheral MMIO (device), and partition regions (unprivileged). No page tables, no stage-2 translation. | +| 4: Privilege mode | Cortex-M: Handler mode (privileged) for kernel, Thread mode (unprivileged) for partitions. `CONTROL` register configures privilege. | +| 5: Kernel objects | Reduced allocation: 64-entry capability table, 8 queues, compact witness log in flash-backed RAM section. | +| 6: First witness | 32-byte compact `BOOT_COMPLETE` witness.

Regions must be power-of-2 aligned and sized (ARMv7-M) or 32-byte aligned (ARMv8-M). This is acceptable for 1-2 partitions. + +### Compact Witness Format (32-byte) + +The standard 64-byte witness from ADR-134 is halved for Seed: + +| Field | Standard (64B) | Compact (32B) | Notes | +|-------|---------------|---------------|-------| +| Witness type | 2 bytes | 1 byte | 256 types sufficient for Seed | +| Flags | 2 bytes | 1 byte | Reduced flag set | +| Timestamp | 8 bytes | 4 bytes | 32-bit relative timestamp (wraps at ~4.2 billion ticks) | +| Previous hash | 32 bytes | 16 bytes | Truncated SHA-256 or SipHash-128 | +| Payload | 20 bytes | 10 bytes | Reduced context per record | + +Compact witnesses are interoperable: they can be expanded to 64-byte format when uploaded to an Appliance or cloud for aggregation. The truncated hash provides 128-bit collision resistance, sufficient for embedded attestation chains. + +### Device Model: Capability-Gated MMIO + +Seed does not virtualize peripherals.

Interrupt routing: the NVIC (Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller) routes peripheral interrupts to the active partition's handler via the kernel's dispatch table + +This is simpler and faster than the Appliance model (which uses stage-2 faults to trap MMIO).

This forces the kernel to be truly independent of Layer 2. +- **Constrains kernel size**: The 64KB flash target prevents kernel bloat. If a change breaks Seed, it means the kernel is growing too large. +- **Proves minimal viability**: If RVM works on 64KB RAM, it works everywhere. The Seed target is the existence proof that RVM is not "just another heavy hypervisor." +- **Enables IoT and edge security**: Capability-based isolation with witness attestation on microcontroller-class hardware is a novel capability. No existing embedded OS provides this combination. +- **Shared kernel code**: The Seed kernel is the same `ruvix-nucleus` crate compiled with `--features seed`. No separate kernel for embedded. + +### Negative + +- **MPU isolation is weaker than MMU**: MPU regions are coarse (power-of-2 size on ARMv7-M), limited in number (8-16), and do not provide address translation. A compromised partition that can control the MPU configuration registers can break isolation. Mitigation: kernel runs in Handler mode with exclusive MPU write access. +- **Compact witnesses sacrifice hash strength**: 128-bit truncated hashes provide less collision resistance than 256-bit. Acceptable for embedded chains of bounded length; unacceptable for long-lived archival. Compact witnesses should be expanded when aggregated off-device. +- **Limited agent support**: Most Seed deployments run native code, not WASM. This reduces the "agent runtime" value proposition to near-zero on Seed. +- **Hardware fragmentation**: Every Cortex-M variant has different peripheral addresses, clock trees, and MPU configurations. The HAL trait helps, but board-specific bring-up effort is non-trivial. +- **No stage-2 translation**: Without an MMU, there is no intermediate physical address space. Partitions share the physical address map, separated only by MPU regions. This is fundamentally less isolated than the Appliance model. + +--- + +## Rejected Alternatives + +| Alternative | Reason for Rejection | +|-------------|---------------------| +| **Skip Seed entirely** | Leaves DC-1 untested in production. Kernel size grows unchecked. Misses IoT/edge market. | +| **Use Tock OS directly** | Tock is not a hypervisor, does not support coherence domains, does not have a witness system. Would require forking and rewriting, losing the shared-kernel advantage. | +| **Use Hubris directly** | Hubris is task-isolated but not capability-based in the RVM sense. No witness system, no coherence domain abstraction. Same fork-and-rewrite problem. | +| **Cortex-A only (skip Cortex-M)** | Cortex-A has an MMU, which makes Seed easier but misses the hardest constraint: MPU-only operation. If Seed works on Cortex-M, it trivially works on small Cortex-A. | +| **Separate embedded kernel** | Maintaining two kernels (one for Appliance, one for Seed) doubles testing and diverges the codebase. Feature flags on a single `ruvix-nucleus` are strongly preferred. | +| **Full 64-byte witnesses on Seed** | At 64 bytes per witness with 64KB total RAM, the witness log would consume a disproportionate fraction of memory.

The coherence engine is an optimization — it must never compete with the workloads it serves. + +If the coherence engine exceeds its budget or fails, the kernel degrades to locality-based scheduling (DC-1). This is tested as part of the fault recovery success criterion. + +### Device Model: Lease-Based Access + +Devices on the Appliance are accessed through the lease model (architecture doc, Section 3.6): + +| Device Class | Lease Type | Typical Leaseholder | +|-------------|------------|-------------------| +| Storage (SSD/eMMC) | Long-term, shared read | Witness log partition, cold-tier manager | +| Network (Ethernet) | Time-bounded, exclusive write | Network agent partition | +| Crypto accelerator | Short-term, exclusive | Attestation partition, secure boot | +| GPU (if present) | Time-bounded, exclusive | ML inference agent partition | +| Serial/UART | Debug only | Kernel (not leased) | +| Timer | Kernel-owned | Scheduler (not leased) | + +Lease expiry automatically revokes capabilities. DMA budget enforcement prevents a rogue partition from exhausting memory through device DMA. + +### Network Model + +**Local (single appliance):** +- All IPC is through CommEdges (zero-copy where possible) +- Witness log streamed to persistent storage continuously +- Local witness log queryable by partitions with WITNESS capability + +**Mesh (multi-appliance cluster, future):** +- Inter-appliance communication over Ethernet +- Partition migration between appliances (Phase 4+, M7) +- Distributed witness log merge across appliance cluster +- Cross-appliance coherence graph maintained by designated coordinator partition + +### Monitoring and Audit + +The witness log is the primary monitoring mechanism. On the Appliance: +- Witness records are appended to a dedicated storage partition +- Records are queryable locally (partitions with WITNESS capability can read the log) +- A monitoring agent partition can stream witness records over the network to an external collector +- Merkle compaction occurs when the ring buffer wraps, preserving the hash chain to cold storage + +### Update Mechanism + +| Property | Specification | +|----------|--------------| +| Image format | RVF-packaged (RuVector Format), signed | +| Signature verification | ML-DSA-65 attestation (from ruvix-boot) | +| Delivery | Network pull or USB/SD card | +| Rollback | Dual-partition A/B scheme; rollback to previous image on boot failure | +| Attestation | Measured boot: each stage hashes the next and extends the witness chain | +| Downtime | Cold reboot required for kernel update; agent-only updates can hot-swap partitions | + +The A/B partition scheme uses two storage slots. The running image occupies slot A. An update is written to slot B, verified, and the boot pointer is atomically switched. If the new image fails to emit a first witness within the timeout, the watchdog reverts to slot A. + +**Witness chain continuity invariant**: The witness chain MUST survive upgrades. + +``` +upgrade_witness_protocol: + 1. emit witness(UPGRADE_INITIATED, old_version, new_version, chain_head_hash) + 2. write new image to slot B + 3. emit witness(UPGRADE_VERIFIED, new_image_hash) + 4. atomic boot pointer switch + 5. new kernel reads chain_head_hash from upgrade witness in old log + 6. new kernel continues chain from that hash (no break) + 7. emit witness(UPGRADE_COMPLETE, new_version, old_chain_head_hash) +``` + +If the chain breaks, the audit trail breaks, and trust breaks. This invariant is non-negotiable. + +### Control Partition (Operator Interface) + +The Appliance includes a **control partition** — a privileged partition for operator interaction, debugging, and system management. It is the only partition with WITNESS read capability and system-level query rights. + +| Function | Mechanism | +|----------|-----------| +| Witness query | Read witness log, filter by partition/time/action | +| Partition inspection | List active/suspended/dormant partitions, view CoherenceScores | +| Operator commands | Create/destroy/migrate partitions, grant/revoke capabilities | +| Health monitoring | Track epoch summaries, detect anomalies, trigger Recovery mode | +| Debug console | Serial/UART or network SSH to control partition shell | +| Metrics export | Stream partition metrics and witness summaries over network | + +The control partition runs in Flow mode with elevated capabilities but is still subject to the capability discipline — it cannot bypass proof-gated mutation. It is created at boot as the first user partition after the kernel initializes. + +### Failure Classification + +Failure recovery requires explicit classification. Not all failures are equal. + +| Class | Scope | Detection | Response | Example | +|-------|-------|-----------|----------|---------| +| **F1: Agent failure** | Single WASM agent within a partition | WASM trap, timeout, resource limit exceeded | Restart agent within partition. Emit witness(AGENT_RESTART). | Agent panics, infinite loop, OOM within WASM linear memory | +| **F2: Partition failure** | Single partition | Capability violation, unrecoverable agent state, memory corruption detected by checksums | Terminate partition. Reconstruct from checkpoint + witness log. Emit witness(PARTITION_RECONSTRUCT). | Corrupted partition state, repeated F1 failures | +| **F3: Memory corruption** | Cross-partition or kernel memory | ECC error, hash mismatch on witness chain, page table corruption | Rollback affected region to last valid checkpoint. Enter Recovery mode for affected partitions. Emit witness(MEMORY_ROLLBACK). | Bitflip in DRAM, storage corruption | +| **F4: Kernel failure** | Entire system | Kernel panic, watchdog timeout, unrecoverable scheduler state | Full reboot from A/B image. Witness chain preserved on persistent storage. Emit witness(KERNEL_REBOOT) on next boot. | Kernel bug, hardware fault beyond software recovery | + +**Escalation rule**: F1 → F2 after 3 restart failures within a cooldown window. F2 → F3 if reconstruction fails. F3 → F4 if rollback fails. Each escalation is witnessed. + +### Security Model + +| Property | Mechanism | +|----------|-----------| +| Measured boot | Each boot stage hashes the next; extends witness chain from hardware root of trust | +| Attestation | ML-DSA-65 signature over boot measurements; verifiable by remote party | +| Tenant isolation | Capability-enforced partition boundaries (ADR-132 proof system, P1+P2) | +| No ambient authority | Every resource access requires an explicit capability | +| Device isolation | Lease-based access with DMA budget enforcement | +| Witness integrity | Append-only, hash-chained log; tamper-evident by construction | +| Network security | TLS for inter-appliance communication; capability-gated network device access | + +--- + +## Success Criteria + +All six ADR-132 success criteria must pass on Appliance hardware: + +| # | Criterion | Target | Appliance-Specific Note | +|---|-----------|--------|------------------------| +| 1 | Cold boot to first witness | <250ms | On physical ARM/x86 board, not just QEMU | +| 2 | Hot partition switch latency | <10 us | Measured with ARM cycle counter or x86 TSC | +| 3 | Remote memory traffic reduction | >=20% vs naive placement | Compared against round-robin partition assignment on same hardware | +| 4 | Tail latency reduction | >=20% under mixed partition pressure | 16+ concurrent agent partitions, mixed Flow and Reflex | +| 5 | Witness completeness | Full trail for every migration, remap, device lease | Verified by witness log replay producing identical state | +| 6 | Fault recovery | Recover from injected fault without global reboot | Kill one agent partition, verify others continue; corrupt one region, verify reconstruction | + +### Additional Appliance-Specific Criteria + +| # | Criterion | Target | +|---|-----------|--------| +| A1 | Sustained 16-partition operation for 24 hours | No memory leaks, no witness chain breaks | +| A2 | A/B update with rollback | Successful update, then forced rollback, both produce valid witness chains | +| A3 | Multi-agent communication throughput | >=10,000 messages/second across 8 CommEdges | +| A4 | Cold-tier reconstruction | Reconstruct a dormant agent from cold storage within 100ms | + +--- + +## Use Cases + +### Smart Factory Floor Controller + +An Appliance on the factory floor runs: +- 4 Reflex-mode partitions for PLC communication (deterministic latency) +- 8 Flow-mode partitions for ML inference agents (anomaly detection, predictive maintenance) +- 2 partitions for data aggregation and upstream reporting +- 1 monitoring partition for local dashboard + +The coherence engine places PLC-communication agents on the same core as their paired ML agents (high CommEdge weight), while isolating upstream reporting agents on a separate core (low coupling). + +### Retail Edge AI Hub + +An Appliance behind the checkout area runs: +- Camera inference agents (one per camera, Flow mode) +- Inventory tracking agents (shared state via CommEdges) +- POS integration agent (Reflex mode for transaction latency) +- Loss prevention agent (cross-references camera + POS data) + +Tenant isolation ensures the POS agent cannot be affected by a camera inference crash. The witness log provides a complete audit trail for every transaction-related event. + +### Autonomous Vehicle Compute Node + +An Appliance in the vehicle runs: +- Sensor fusion agents (LiDAR, camera, radar — Reflex mode) +- Path planning agent (Flow mode, high priority) +- Comfort system agents (HVAC, seat, infotainment — Flow mode, low priority) +- V2X communication agent (network-connected) + +The coherence engine keeps sensor fusion and path planning agents tightly coupled (high coherence score, co-located cores).

The hypervisor (kernel) and coherence engine are specified in ADR-132 and its follow-on ADRs. This ADR specifies the third system: the agent runtime adapter that hosts WASM-based agent workloads inside coherence domains. + +### Problem Statement + +1. **Partitions need executable workloads**: ADR-132 defines partitions as coherence domain containers, but a partition without a runtime is an empty box. The agent runtime adapter fills these boxes with executable WASM modules. +2. **Agents need double sandboxing**: A single isolation boundary is insufficient for multi-tenant edge computing. Agents must be sandboxed at both the capability level (kernel-enforced partition boundaries) and the memory level (WASM linear memory). Neither boundary alone is sufficient. +3. **Agent communication must feed the coherence graph**: The coherence engine derives its value from observing inter-partition communication patterns. Agent IPC must be routed through CommEdges so that every message updates the graph and informs mincut decisions. +4. **Migration must be transparent to agents**: When the coherence engine decides to move an agent to a different partition (or a different core, or a different node), the agent must not need to know. Its state, memory, and communication endpoints must transfer seamlessly. +5. **WASM in bare-metal context is validated**: Microsoft's Hyperlight project (March 2025) demonstrated `wasmtime` compiled as a `no_std` module running inside a bare-metal hypervisor. This proves the technical viability of WASM agents in a hypervisor without a host OS. + +### SOTA References + +| Source | Key Contribution | Relevance | +|--------|-----------------|-----------| +| wasmtime | Production WASM runtime with Cranelift JIT; `no_std` capable | Primary runtime candidate; validated by Hyperlight | +| Microsoft Hyperlight (March 2025) | `wasmtime` as `no_std` module inside a bare-metal hypervisor | Direct proof of concept for WASM-in-hypervisor | +| WAMR (WebAssembly Micro Runtime) | Lightweight WASM interpreter for embedded (<100KB) | Alternative for extremely constrained partitions | +| WASI Preview 2 / Component Model | Typed interface composition for WASM modules | Informs typed IPC via CommEdges | +| Lunatic | Erlang-like actor system built on WASM | Actor model for agent isolation and communication patterns | +| Fermyon Spin | WASM microservice framework with capability-based security | Demonstrates capability-gated WASM execution at scale | + +--- + +## Decision + +### Core Design: WASM Modules Inside Partitions + +Agents run as WebAssembly modules inside RVM partitions.

A partition cannot access memory, devices, or communication channels that it does not hold capabilities for. This is the kernel-level boundary. + +**Sandbox 2 — WASM linear memory**: Each WASM module has its own linear memory space. Even within a shared partition (where tightly-coupled agents A and B co-reside), agent A cannot access agent B's linear memory. The WASM runtime enforces this at the instruction level. + +### Agent-to-Partition Mapping + +Each agent maps to exactly one partition. The mapping rules are: + +| Scenario | Mapping | Rationale | +|----------|---------|-----------| +| Independent agent | 1 agent : 1 partition | Full isolation, separate coherence score | +| Tightly-coupled agents | N agents : 1 partition | High coherence score between them; co-location avoids cross-partition IPC overhead | +| Agent migration | Agent moves between partitions | Coherence engine detects misplacement via mincut | + +The coherence engine (ADR-132, Layer 2) continuously evaluates whether the current agent-to-partition mapping is optimal. If agent B in partition P1 communicates more heavily with agent C in partition P2 than with agent A in P1, the mincut algorithm detects this and triggers migration of B to P2 (or creation of a new partition). + +### WASM Runtime Selection + +| Runtime | Build Mode | Size | Compilation | Use Case | +|---------|-----------|------|-------------|----------| +| **wasmtime** (`no_std`) | AOT via Cranelift | ~2 MB | Ahead-of-time or JIT | Primary runtime for Appliance | +| **WAMR** (interpreter) | Interpreter | ~100 KB | None (interprets bytecode) | Fallback for memory-constrained partitions | + +**Primary choice: wasmtime compiled as `no_std` module.** + +Rationale: +- Microsoft Hyperlight (March 2025) validated this exact approach: wasmtime running inside a bare-metal hypervisor without a host OS +- Cranelift AOT compilation produces native code, eliminating interpretation overhead +- `no_std` build avoids libc dependency, compatible with RVM's bare-metal environment +- Larger binary size (2 MB) is acceptable on Appliance-class hardware (1-32 GB RAM) + +WAMR is retained as a fallback for partitions with extreme memory constraints or for the Seed platform (future ADR). + +### Agent Lifecycle + +``` + ┌──────────────┐ + │ Initializing │ ◄── WASM module loaded, capabilities granted + └──────┬───────┘ + │ + v + ┌──────────────┐ + ┌───►│ Running │◄────────────────────────────┐ + │ └──────┬───────┘ │ + │ │ │ + │ ┌──────┴───────┐ ┌───────────────┐ │ + │ │ Suspended │ │ Migrating │ │ + │ │ (I/O wait │────────►│ (from → to) │────┘ + │ │ or yield) │ └───────────────┘ + │ └──────┬───────┘ + │ │ + │ ┌──────┴───────┐ + │ │ Hibernated │ ◄── state compressed to Dormant tier + │ └──────┬───────┘ + │ │ + │ ┌──────┴────────────┐ + └────┤ Reconstructing │ ◄── state restored from Dormant/Cold tier + └──────┬────────────┘ + │ + ┌──────┴───────┐ + │ Terminated │ ◄── cleanup complete, capabilities revoked + └──────────────┘ +``` + +| State | Description | Memory Tier | Schedulable | +|-------|-------------|-------------|-------------| +| **Initializing** | WASM module loading, capability setup, CommEdge creation | Hot | No | +| **Running** | Actively executing within partition | Hot | Yes | +| **Suspended** | Waiting on I/O, CommEdge recv, or explicit yield | Hot/Warm | No (resumes on event) | +| **Migrating** | State serialized, transferring to target partition | Hot (source) -> Hot (target) | No | +| **Hibernated** | State compressed, partition may be reclaimed | Dormant | No | +| **Reconstructing** | State decompressing from Dormant or Cold tier | Dormant -> Hot | No | +| **Terminated** | Cleanup complete, all resources released | None | No | + +### Host Functions: WASM-to-Kernel Interface + +WASM agents interact with the kernel through host functions. Every host function maps to a RVM syscall and is capability-checked before execution. + +| Host Function | Syscall | Required Capability | Description | +|--------------|---------|-------------------|-------------| +| `send(edge_id, data)` | `queue_send` | WRITE on CommEdge | Send a message to another agent | +| `recv(edge_id, buf)` | `queue_recv` | READ on CommEdge | Receive a message from a CommEdge | +| `notify(edge_id, mask)` | `notify_signal` | WRITE on NotificationWord | Signal a notification bit | +| `wait(edge_id, mask)` | `notify_wait` | READ on NotificationWord | Wait for notification | +| `request_shared_region(size, policy)` | `region_create` | WRITE on partition | Allocate a shared memory region | +| `map_shared(region_id)` | `region_map` | READ on region | Map a shared region into agent's view | +| `vector_get(store, key, buf)` | `vecstore_get` | READ on VectorStore | Read a vector from kernel vector store | +| `vector_put(store, key, data)` | `vecstore_put` | WRITE + PROVE on VectorStore | Write a vector with proof | +| `spawn_agent(config)` | `partition_create` + `task_create` | EXECUTE + PROVE on partition | Spawn a child agent | +| `hibernate()` | `task_hibernate` | HIBERNATE on partition | Request hibernation | +| `yield_now()` | `sched_yield` | (none) | Yield execution to scheduler | + +**No ambient authority**: An agent that does not hold a capability for a given resource cannot invoke the corresponding host function. The WASM runtime traps the call, and the kernel returns `CapabilityDenied` without executing the operation. A witness record is emitted for the denied access. + +### Agent Communication: Typed Messages via CommEdges + +All agent-to-agent communication goes through CommEdges (architecture doc, Section 3.5). This is not optional — there is no shared memory backdoor, no global namespace, no side channel. + +**Message flow:** + +``` +Agent A Kernel Agent B + │ │ │ + │ send(edge_42, payload) │ │ + │────────────────────────►│ │ + │ │ 1. Capability check │ + │ │ 2. Schema validation │ + │ │ 3. Enqueue in CommEdge │ + │ │ 4. Update edge weight │ + │ │ 5. Emit witness │ + │ │────────────────────────► │ + │ │ recv(edge_42, buf) │ + │ │ │ +``` + +**Schema validation**: CommEdges carry a schema hash. When an agent sends a message, the kernel validates that the message conforms to the declared schema before enqueuing. This prevents confused-deputy attacks where Agent A sends a malformed message that causes Agent B to misbehave. The schema is declared at CommEdge creation time and cannot be changed. + +**Zero-copy optimization**: For large payloads, agents use `request_shared_region` and `map_shared` to establish a shared memory region, then send a `ZeroCopyDescriptor` over the CommEdge instead of the data itself. The receiver reads directly from the shared region. The shared region is mapped read-only in the receiver's stage-2 page table. + +### Agent Identity: Badge-Based + +Agent identity is kernel-assigned and unforgeable: + +```rust +/// Agent badge: unforgeable identity assigned by the kernel at spawn time. +/// +/// The badge is embedded in every capability derived for this agent. +/// It cannot be self-asserted, copied, or forged. The kernel verifies +/// the badge on every syscall by checking the calling partition's +/// capability table. +pub struct AgentBadge { + /// Monotonically increasing ID, never reused + id: u64, + /// Partition this agent belongs to + partition: PartitionId, + /// Hash of the WASM module that was loaded + module_hash: [u8; 32], + /// Spawn timestamp (for ordering and witness correlation) + spawned_at_ns: u64, +} +``` + +An agent cannot claim to be a different agent. Every message sent over a CommEdge carries the sender's badge, verified by the kernel. This eliminates identity spoofing in multi-agent systems. + +### Migration Protocol + +When the coherence engine determines that an agent should move to a different partition, the following protocol executes: + +``` +Migration Protocol (Agent X: Partition P1 → Partition P2): + +1. SUSPEND Set agent X state to Migrating{from: P1, to: P2} + Emit witness: MIGRATION_START(agent=X, from=P1, to=P2) + +2. SERIALIZE Capture WASM linear memory (pages) + Capture WASM execution state (stack, globals, table) + Capture agent-owned region references + Total serialized state = linear_memory + exec_state + region_list + +3. TRANSFER Allocate equivalent resources in P2 + Copy serialized state to P2 memory + (If cross-node: encrypt, send over network, decrypt) + +4. RECONNECT For each CommEdge connected to agent X: + Update endpoint from P1 to P2 + Update coherence graph edge + Emit witness: EDGE_RELOCATED(edge=E, from=P1, to=P2) + +5. GRAPH Update coherence graph: + Remove agent X node from P1 subgraph + Add agent X node to P2 subgraph + Recompute mincut for both P1 and P2 + +6. RESTORE Instantiate WASM runtime in P2 with transferred state + Set agent X state to Running + Emit witness: MIGRATION_COMPLETE(agent=X, partition=P2) + +7. CLEANUP Release agent X resources in P1 + If P1 is now empty, mark for reclamation +``` + +**Invariant**: At no point during migration are messages to agent X lost. CommEdges buffer messages during migration. The agent resumes in P2 and drains any buffered messages. + +### Hibernation and Reconstruction + +Agents can be hibernated (state compressed to Dormant tier) and reconstructed on demand: + +**Hibernation**: +1. Suspend agent execution +2. Compress WASM linear memory + execution state using LZ4 +3. Store compressed state in Dormant tier memory region +4. Record reconstruction receipt in the witness log (hash of compressed state + location pointer) +5. Release Hot-tier memory occupied by the agent +6. Set agent state to Hibernated + +**Reconstruction**: +1. Locate compressed state via reconstruction receipt +2. Decompress state from Dormant (or Cold, if evicted to storage) tier +3. Allocate Hot-tier memory for the agent +4. Restore WASM runtime with decompressed state +5. Reconnect CommEdges (endpoints may have moved during hibernation) +6. Resume execution from the exact instruction where hibernation occurred +7. Emit witness: AGENT_RECONSTRUCTED + +### Resource Limits + +Per-partition resource quotas prevent DoS by any single agent: + +| Resource | Quota Mechanism | Default Limit | Enforcement | +|----------|----------------|---------------|-------------| +| CPU time | Time quantum per scheduler epoch | 10ms per epoch | Preempted by scheduler | +| Memory | WASM linear memory page limit | 256 pages (16 MB) | `memory.grow` returns -1 beyond limit | +| IPC rate | Message count per epoch | 1000 messages/epoch | `send` returns `RateLimited` | +| Device access | Lease duration and DMA budget | Per-device policy | Lease expiry, DMA budget exhaustion | +| Agent spawning | Spawn count limit | 4 children per agent | `spawn_agent` returns `SpawnLimitReached` | + +Quota violations are witnessed. Repeated violations can trigger automatic hibernation of the offending agent. + +### Agent Spawning: Capability-Gated + +Only partitions with EXECUTE + PROVE rights can spawn new agents: + +``` +Spawn Protocol: +1. Parent agent calls spawn_agent(config) +2. Kernel checks: parent holds Capability(partition, EXECUTE | PROVE) +3. Kernel validates WASM module (signature check via ruvix-boot attestation) +4. Kernel creates new partition (or assigns to parent's partition if tightly-coupled) +5. Kernel derives child capabilities from parent's capability tree (rights can only narrow) +6. Kernel creates CommEdge between parent and child +7. Kernel instantiates WASM runtime, loads module, begins execution +8. Witness: AGENT_SPAWNED(parent=P, child=C, module_hash=H) +``` + +**Capability narrowing**: A parent can only grant capabilities it holds. A child agent can never have more authority than its parent. This forms a delegation tree rooted at the boot partition. + +### RuVector Integration + +Agent communication patterns are the primary input to the coherence engine: + +| Agent Activity | Coherence Graph Effect | Mincut Consequence | +|---------------|----------------------|-------------------| +| Agent A sends to Agent B frequently | CommEdge(A,B) weight increases | Mincut favors keeping A and B in same partition | +| Agent A stops communicating with Agent C | CommEdge(A,C) weight decays | Mincut may separate A and C into different partitions | +| Agent A spawns Agent D | New node D added to graph, edge(A,D) created | Mincut recomputed for parent partition | +| Agent A hibernated | Node A removed from active graph | Mincut recomputed; may trigger merge of remaining agents | +| Agent A migrated P1 -> P2 | Node A moves in graph, edges updated | Post-migration mincut validates improvement | + +The coherence engine does not understand agent semantics. It observes communication patterns and derives placement decisions purely from graph structure. This separation (ADR-132, DC-5) ensures the coherence engine remains independent of the agent runtime. + +--- + +## Phase Dependency + +The agent runtime adapter is a **Phase 4 feature (M6)** in the ADR-132 milestone plan. It depends on: + +| Dependency | Phase | What It Provides | +|-----------|-------|-----------------| +| Kernel boot + partition model | Phase 1 (M0-M1) | Partitions exist, capabilities enforced | +| Witness logging | Phase 2 (M2) | All agent actions are witnessed | +| Scheduler with coherence scoring | Phase 2-3 (M3) | Agents are scheduled based on coherence | +| Dynamic mincut | Phase 3 (M4) | Migration decisions driven by graph | +| Memory tiers | Phase 3 (M5) | Hibernation and reconstruction work | + +The agent runtime does NOT depend on the coherence engine being present (ADR-132, DC-1). If the coherence engine is absent, agents still run — they just get static partition assignment instead of dynamic placement. + +--- + +## Consequences + +### Positive + +- **Multi-agent edge computing on bare metal**: No host OS, no container runtime, no VM overhead. Agents run directly on the hypervisor with two layers of sandboxing. +- **Communication-driven placement**: Agent IPC patterns automatically feed the coherence graph, enabling the mincut algorithm to optimize placement without manual configuration. +- **Transparent migration**: Agents can be moved between partitions (and eventually between nodes) without code changes. The kernel handles all state transfer. +- **Unforgeable identity**: Badge-based identity eliminates agent impersonation. Combined with schema-validated IPC, this prevents confused-deputy attacks. +- **Hibernate and reconstruct**: Long-running agents can be suspended, compressed, stored, and revived without losing state. This enables efficient use of limited edge hardware. +- **Capability delegation tree**: The spawn model ensures that agent authority can only narrow, never escalate. The root partition defines the maximum authority in the system. + +### Negative + +- **WASM overhead vs. native partitions**: WASM execution is slower than native code. The JIT compilation (Cranelift) narrows the gap but does not eliminate it. Benchmarks at M6 must quantify this overhead. If overhead exceeds 2x for latency-critical workloads, native partition adapters remain available. +- **Migration latency**: Serializing WASM linear memory (up to 16 MB per agent) takes time. Migration of a fully-loaded agent may take 1-10ms depending on memory size and whether the transfer is local or cross-node. During migration, the agent is unavailable. +- **Schema rigidity**: CommEdge schemas are fixed at creation time. Changing a message format between two agents requires destroying and recreating the CommEdge. This is deliberate (prevents type confusion) but constrains protocol evolution. +- **No filesystem abstraction**: WASM agents have no filesystem. All persistent state goes through the kernel's region and witness APIs. Agents ported from Linux environments require adaptation. + +### Risks + +| Risk | Mitigation | +|------|-----------| +| wasmtime `no_std` build proves unstable | Fall back to WAMR interpreter; accept performance degradation | +| WASM memory overhead makes 64 partitions infeasible on 4 GB RAM | Reduce default partition budget; rely on hibernation to keep working set within memory | +| Migration causes CommEdge message loss | Buffer messages in CommEdge during migration; drain on reconnect; test under load at M6 | +| Schema validation overhead on IPC hot path | Cache schema check result per CommEdge; validate only on first message after edge creation or reconfiguration | +| Agent spawning creates unbounded partition growth | Enforce spawn count limits per agent; enforce global partition limit (64 max on Appliance) | + +--- + +## References + +- ADR-132: RVM Hypervisor Core +- ADR-133: Partition Object Model +- ADR-139: Appliance Deployment Model +- RVM Architecture Document, Section 9 (Agent Runtime Layer): `docs/research/ruvm/architecture.md` +- RVM GOAP Plan, Milestone M6 (Agent Runtime Adapter): `docs/research/ruvm/goap-plan.md` +- Microsoft Hyperlight.

The +engine was implemented in `rvm-coherence` as a standalone crate with graph, +mincut, scoring, and adaptive modules — but no runtime integration existed. +The kernel had no mechanism to: + +1. Feed real-time communication patterns into the coherence graph +2. Propagate coherence scores to partition objects and the scheduler +3. Act on split/merge recommendations +4. Decay stale edges to prevent graph corruption +5. Enforce security gates on coherence-driven operations + +## Decision + +### 1. Unified CoherenceEngine with Pluggable Backends + +The `CoherenceEngine` is generic over two backend traits: + +- `MinCutBackend` — pluggable mincut algorithm (default: Stoer-Wagner) +- `CoherenceBackend` — pluggable coherence scoring (default: ratio-based) + +When the `ruvector` feature is enabled, stub backends (`RuVectorMinCut`, +`SpectralCoherence`) become available. These will delegate to the ruvector +ecosystem crates once they gain `no_std` support. + +Type aliases `DefaultCoherenceEngine` and `RuVectorCoherenceEngine` provide +ergonomic access. + +### 2. IPC → Coherence Graph Auto-Feeding + +Every `ipc_send()` call automatically increments the coherence graph edge +weight for the sender→receiver pair (weight += 1). This means the coherence +graph always reflects the actual communication topology without manual +instrumentation. The `IpcManager` also tracks cumulative weights per channel. + +### 3. Edge Weight Decay + +Edge weights decay by 5% per epoch (`decay_bp = 500`). Edges that reach +zero weight are automatically pruned. This prevents stale communication +patterns from dominating the graph and ensures the coherence engine tracks +the *current* topology, not historical patterns. + +### 4. Score Propagation to Partition Objects + +On every `tick()`, the kernel calls `sync_partition_scores()` which pushes +the coherence engine's per-partition `CoherenceScore` and `CutPressure` +values into the `Partition` struct fields. Downstream consumers (scheduler +priority computation, security gates, tier placement) always see fresh values. + +### 5. Coherence-Driven Split/Merge Execution + +The kernel provides: +- `execute_split(source)` — creates a child partition, registers in graph, emits `StructuralSplit` witness +- `execute_merge(absorber, absorbed)` — validates preconditions (coherence threshold, adjacency, resources), emits `StructuralMerge` witness +- `apply_decision(decision)` — dispatcher that takes a `CoherenceDecision` from `tick()` and executes the appropriate operation + +### 6. Scheduler Integration + +`enqueue_partition(cpu, id, deadline_urgency)` automatically injects the +partition's coherence-derived `CutPressure` into the scheduler's priority +computation: `priority = deadline_urgency + cut_pressure_boost`. + +### 7. Security-Gated Operations + +Capability-checked variants of kernel operations: +- `checked_create_partition(config, token)` — requires `Partition` type + `WRITE` rights +- `checked_ipc_send(edge, msg, token)` — requires `Partition` type + `WRITE` rights +- Denials emit `ProofRejected` witness records via the `SecurityGate` pipeline + +### 8.

An attacker can forge a witness chain entry in ~2^32 operations. | +| A-02 | Critical | `nucleus/src/witness_log.rs` (WitnessEntry::compute_hash) | Chain hash uses XOR folding of field bytes with attestation and prev_hash. XOR is commutative and associative -- swapping fields produces identical hashes. | +| A-03 | Critical | `types/src/proof_cache_optimized.rs:140-157` | Proof cache index function uses FNV-1a. Cache poisoning via collision allows an attacker to evict valid proofs and substitute pre-computed ones. | +| A-04 | Critical | `region/src/immutable.rs:204-233` | Immutable region content hash uses 4x FNV-1a lanes with deterministic seeding. This provides at most 64 bits of collision resistance, not 256. Content substitution is feasible. | +| A-05 | Critical | `proof/src/verifier.rs:220-276` | P3 (Deep) verification does not perform cryptographic verification. The `CoherenceCert` payload signature field (`[u8; 64]`) is never checked. Any 64-byte value passes. | +| A-06 | Critical | `proof/src/witness.rs:79-109` | Merkle witness `verify()` checks structural bounds but never recomputes the hash chain from leaf to root.

The codebase then grew around this deferral, and non-cryptographic FNV-1a was used as a placeholder in multiple security-critical paths. The placeholder was never replaced, and no feature gate distinguished "development stub" from "production code." + +### Existing Infrastructure + +ADR-042 already defines TEE infrastructure (SGX, SEV-SNP, TDX, ARM CCA) with `AttestationHeader`, TEE-bound key records, and platform verification. The `WitnessSigner` trait concept from the hypervisor design is pluggable. The `sha2` crate is already a dependency in `ruvix-boot` (used in `boot/src/attestation.rs` and `boot/src/signature.rs`).

Replace FNV-1a with SHA-256 as the Minimum Cryptographic Baseline + +All security-sensitive hash computations must use SHA-256 (`sha2` crate, `no_std` compatible).

The current XOR approach is commutative; SHA-256 is not. + +**Immutable region hashing** (`region/src/immutable.rs`): +- Replace the 4-lane FNV-1a hash in `compute_content_hash()` with a single SHA-256 pass over the region content. + +**Store state hashing** (`nucleus/src/vector_store.rs`, `nucleus/src/graph_store.rs`): +- Replace FNV-1a state hashes with SHA-256. + +**Proof cache indexing** (`types/src/proof_cache_optimized.rs`): +- This is a hash table index, not a security function. Retain FNV-1a for performance but rename to `cache_slot_index()` and add documentation that this is explicitly non-cryptographic. Gate behind `fnv-fallback`. + +### 2. TEE Evidence and Signer Pipeline + +TEE attestation involves two distinct operational problems: local evidence generation and remote evidence verification. These must not be conflated into a single abstraction. The pipeline is: + +1. **`TeeQuoteProvider`** — Produces local attestation evidence (quote) bound to the platform measurement. Runs inside the TEE. Output is opaque platform-specific evidence. +2. **`TeeQuoteVerifier`** — Validates evidence plus collateral policy. Handles collateral refresh discipline (Intel TDX collateral expires after 30 days per Intel's TDX Enabling Guide). May delegate to a quote verification service. Runs outside the TEE or in a verification enclave. +3. **`WitnessSigner`** — Signs the digest after the quote is accepted. The signer is bound to an identity established by the quote, not the other way around. + +This separation prevents the cryptographic core from inheriting platform verifier complexity. + +#### WitnessSigner Trait + +```rust +/// Typed verification failure causes. +#[derive(Debug, Clone, PartialEq, Eq)] +pub enum SignatureError { + BadSignature, + UnknownKey, + BadMeasurement, + ExpiredCollateral, + Replay, + UnsupportedPlatform, + MalformedInput, +} + +/// Trait for cryptographically signing witness records. +pub trait WitnessSigner: Send + Sync { + /// Signs a witness record digest, returning a 64-byte signature. + fn sign(&self, digest: &[u8; 32]) -> [u8; 64]; + + /// Verifies a signature against a digest. + /// Returns a typed error on failure — `bool` is too lossy for a security boundary. + fn verify(&self, digest: &[u8; 32], signature: &[u8; 64]) -> Result<(), SignatureError>; + + /// Returns the canonical signer identifier. + /// Defined as SHA-256 over a signer descriptor record: + /// Ed25519: SHA-256(0x01 || public_key_bytes) + /// HMAC: SHA-256(0x02 || key_id_bytes || domain_tag) + /// TEE: SHA-256(0x03 || platform_byte || measurement) + /// This is NOT a raw public key hash — it is a canonical digest + /// over a typed descriptor, ensuring domain separation across signer kinds. + fn signer_id(&self) -> [u8; 32]; +} + +/// Produces local TEE attestation evidence. +pub trait TeeQuoteProvider: Send + Sync { + fn generate_quote(&self, report_data: &[u8; 64]) -> Result, SignatureError>; + fn platform(&self) -> TeePlatform; +} + +/// Validates TEE evidence plus collateral policy. +pub trait TeeQuoteVerifier: Send + Sync { + fn verify_quote( + &self, + quote: &[u8], + expected_measurement: &[u8; 32], + expected_report_data: &[u8; 64], + ) -> Result<(), SignatureError>; + fn collateral_valid(&self) -> bool; + fn refresh_collateral(&mut self) -> Result<(), SignatureError>; +} +``` + +#### TEE Platform Measurement Table + +| Platform | Measurement Field | Freshness Mechanism | Collateral Source | Verifier Location | +|----------|-------------------|---------------------|-------------------|-------------------| +| Intel SGX | `MRENCLAVE` (256-bit) | Nonce in `REPORTDATA` | Intel Provisioning Certification Service (PCS) | Local QVE or remote IAS/DCAP | +| Intel TDX | `MRTD` + `RTMR[0..3]` | Nonce in `REPORTDATA`; collateral expires 30 days | Intel PCS (DCAP collateral) | Local QVL or remote PCCS | +| AMD SEV-SNP | `LAUNCH_DIGEST` (384-bit) | `REPORT_DATA` nonce; VCEK cert chain | AMD Key Distribution Service (KDS) | Local via `sev-snp-utilities` or remote verifier | +| ARM CCA | Realm Initial Measurement (RIM) | Challenge nonce in Realm Token | Veraison or custom CCA verifier | Relying Party via CCA attestation token | + +#### Signer Implementations + +| Struct | Backend | Use Case | Trust Scope | +|--------|---------|----------|-------------| +| `Ed25519WitnessSigner` | `ed25519-dalek` ^2 (`no_std`, `verify_strict`) | Software fallback; default when no TEE available. **Must use `verify_strict()` semantics** per `ed25519-dalek` docs to avoid known verification gotchas. | Cross-partition, publicly verifiable | +| `HmacSha256WitnessSigner` | `hmac` ^0.13 + `sha2` ^0.10 (`no_std`) | Symmetric chain integrity. **Permitted only where verifier and signer are in the same administrative trust domain.** HMAC does not provide signer separation, public verifiability, or multi-tenant trust semantics.

Implement Real P3 (Deep Proof) Verification + +Replace the P3 stub in `proof/src/verifier.rs` with a three-tier cryptographic verification pipeline: + +**Hash tier** (Reflex/P1 proofs when `crypto-sha256` is enabled): +- Recompute SHA-256 over the proof's claimed data. +- Compare the result to the committed hash using constant-time comparison (`subtle::ConstantTimeEq`). + +**Witness tier** (Standard/P2 proofs): +- Implement real Merkle witness verification in `proof/src/witness.rs`: starting from the leaf hash, iteratively compute `SHA-256(left || right)` up the path, and compare to the claimed root. +- Verify the witness chain signature using `WitnessSigner::verify()`. + +**ZK/Attestation tier** (Deep/P3 proofs): +- Verify the `CoherenceCert` signature field using the partition's `WitnessSigner`. +- When TEE features are enabled, verify the platform attestation quote against the expected measurement (`MRENCLAVE` for SGX, `LAUNCH_DIGEST` for SEV-SNP, etc.). +- `SecurityGate` must call `verify_p3()` directly and inspect the result. The current pattern where a caller-supplied boolean is trusted (A-05) is eliminated. + +### 4. Constant-Time Comparison for All Verification + +All hash comparisons, signature verifications, and attestation checks must use constant-time operations via `subtle::ConstantTimeEq` (^2.6, already in `Cargo.lock` as transitive dependency): + +- Replace the `!=` operator in `proof/src/verifier.rs:130` with `ct_eq`. +- Apply to `boot/src/attestation.rs` `verify()` method. +- Apply to `cap/src/security.rs` key comparison in `is_trusted()`. + +**Ordering invariant**: Constant-time comparison protects equality checks, but does not repair malformed parsing or variant encodings. All verification paths must follow the sequence: **(1) parse** the input into canonical form, **(2) normalize** length and encoding, **(3) compare** using `ct_eq`. Applying `ct_eq` to un-normalized inputs provides no timing guarantee because the parsing step itself may leak length or format information. This ordering must be documented in `crates/proof/src/constant_time.rs` and enforced by code review. + +### 5.

Finding any two inputs with the same hash requires ~2^128 operations. This is the relevant bound for an attacker who can choose both messages (e.g., forging two witness entries that hash identically). + - *Second-preimage resistance*: 256-bit (ideal model). Given a specific witness entry and its hash, finding a different entry with the same hash requires ~2^256 operations. This is the relevant bound for tampering with a specific chain link. + - *Preimage resistance*: 256-bit (ideal model). Recovering chain input from a hash output requires ~2^256 operations. + + FNV-1a provides none of these guarantees. The previous 32-bit effective collision resistance (birthday bound on 64-bit truncated to 32-bit) is replaced by 128-bit minimum across all attack classes. +- **P3 verification is real**: The stub that accepted anything is replaced with cryptographic signature verification. `SecurityGate` calls `verify_p3()` directly and acts on the result. +- **Constant-time comparison eliminates timing side channels**: All attestation comparisons, hash verifications, and key lookups use `subtle::ConstantTimeEq`. +- **TEE-backed signing when available**: On platforms with SGX, SEV-SNP, TDX, or ARM CCA, witness signatures are hardware-bound to the enclave measurement. Key extraction requires breaking the TEE. +- **NullSigner is no longer the default**: `strict-signing` is enabled by default. Development builds must explicitly opt in to `fnv-fallback`. +- **Incremental adoption via feature flags**: The `crypto-sha256` default brings immediate security improvement. TEE features are additive and platform-specific. + +### Negative + +- **Performance cost**: SHA-256 at ~200ns per 64-byte block is ~4x slower than FNV-1a at ~50ns. For witness chain hashing on the critical path, this adds approximately 200ns per entry. This is well within the P2 budget of 100 microseconds and the P3 budget of 10 milliseconds. +- **Binary size increase**: The `sha2` crate adds approximately 30KB. `ed25519-dalek` adds approximately 80KB. `subtle` adds <1KB. Total worst case with all features: ~110KB. Acceptable for a hypervisor. +- **P3 verification budget increases from ~0 microseconds (stub) to <10ms (real crypto)**: This is the designed budget from ADR-135. The stub was the anomaly, not the budget. +- **Test infrastructure changes**: All tests using `fnv1a_hash()` for verification need updating. This is a one-time migration cost. + +### Performance Budget Impact + +| Operation | Before (FNV-1a / stub) | After (SHA-256 / real) | ADR-135 Budget | Within Budget | +|-----------|----------------------|----------------------|----------------|---------------| +| P1 capability check | < 1 us | < 1 us (unchanged) | < 1 us | Yes | +| P2 hash comparison | ~50ns (FNV) + timing leak | ~200ns (SHA-256, ct_eq) | < 100 us | Yes | +| P2 full validation | ~5 us | ~6 us | < 100 us | Yes | +| P3 deep proof | ~0 us (stub) | ~500 us - 5 ms | < 10 ms | Yes | +| Witness chain append | ~100ns (XOR fold) | ~300ns (SHA-256 + sign) | N/A (async) | Yes | +| Boot measurement | ~10 us (already SHA-256) | ~10 us (unchanged) | N/A | Yes | + +### Risks + +| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation | +|------|------------|--------|------------| +| `ed25519-dalek` `no_std` compatibility breaks on target | Low | High | Pin version; fallback to `HmacSha256WitnessSigner` which uses only `sha2` + `hmac`. | +| SHA-256 performance on constrained embedded targets | Medium | Medium | Benchmark on Seed target early.

Design Principles + +### 1.1 Not a VM, Not a Container -- a Coherence Domain + +Traditional hypervisors (KVM, Xen, Firecracker) virtualize hardware to run guest operating systems. Traditional containers (Docker, gVisor) share a host kernel with namespace isolation. RVM does neither. + +A RVM **partition** is a coherence domain: a set of memory regions, capabilities, communication edges, and scheduled tasks that form a self-consistent unit of computation. Partitions are not VMs -- they have no emulated hardware, no guest kernel, no BIOS. They are not containers -- there is no host kernel to share. The hypervisor is the kernel. + +The unit of isolation is defined by the graph structure of partition communication, not by hardware virtualization features. A mincut of the communication graph reveals the natural fault isolation boundary. This is a fundamentally different model. + +### 1.2 Core Invariants + +These invariants hold for every operation in the system: + +| ID | Invariant | Enforcement | +|----|-----------|-------------| +| INV-1 | No mutation without proof | `ProofGate` at type level, 3-tier verification | +| INV-2 | No access without capability | Capability table checked on every syscall | +| INV-3 | Every privileged action is witnessed | Append-only witness log, no opt-out | +| INV-4 | No unbounded allocation in syscall path | Pre-allocated structures, slab allocators | +| INV-5 | No priority inversion | Capability-based access prevents blocking on unheld resources | +| INV-6 | Reconstruction from witness + dormant state | Deterministic replay from checkpoint + log | + +### 1.3 Crate Dependency DAG + +``` +ruvix-types (no_std, #![forbid(unsafe_code)]) + | + +-- ruvix-cap (capability manager, derivation trees) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-proof (3-tier proof engine) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-region (typed memory with ownership) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-queue (io_uring-style IPC) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-sched (graph-pressure scheduler) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-vecgraph (kernel-resident vector/graph) + | + +-- ruvix-hal (HAL traits, platform-agnostic) + | | + | +-- ruvix-aarch64 (ARM boot, MMU, exceptions) + | +-- ruvix-riscv (RISC-V boot, MMU, exceptions) [Phase C] + | +-- ruvix-x86_64 (x86 boot, VMX, exceptions) [Phase D] + | + +-- ruvix-physmem (buddy allocator) + +-- ruvix-dtb (device tree parser) + +-- ruvix-drivers (PL011, GIC, timer) + +-- ruvix-dma (DMA engine) + +-- ruvix-net (virtio-net) + +-- ruvix-witness (witness log + replay) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-partition (coherence domain manager) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-commedge (partition communication) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-pressure (mincut integration) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-agent (WASM agent runtime) [NEW] + | + +-- ruvix-nucleus (integration, syscall dispatch) +``` + +--- + +## 2.

This is strictly more powerful than single-stage translation. + +2. **Trap-and-emulate without paravirtualization**: The hypervisor can trap on specific instructions (WFI, MSR, MMIO access) without requiring the partition to be aware it is virtualized. This is essential for running unmodified WASM runtimes. + +**Stage-2 page table setup (AArch64):** + +```rust +// ruvix-aarch64/src/stage2.rs + +/// Stage-2 translation table for a partition. +/// +/// Maps Intermediate Physical Addresses (IPA) produced by the partition's +/// stage-1 tables to actual Physical Addresses (PA).

Core Kernel Objects + +RVM defines eight first-class kernel objects. The first six (Task, Capability, Region, Queue, Timer, Proof) are inherited from Phase A (ADR-087). The remaining two (Partition, CommEdge) plus the supplementary metric objects (CoherenceScore, CutPressure, DeviceLease) are new to the hypervisor architecture. + +### 3.1 Partition (Coherence Domain Container) + +A partition is the primary execution container.

Memory Architecture + +### 4.1 Two-Stage Address Translation + +RVM uses hardware-enforced two-stage address translation for partition isolation: + +``` +Partition Virtual Address (VA) + | + | Stage-1 translation (partition's own page tables, EL1) + | + v +Intermediate Physical Address (IPA) + | + | Stage-2 translation (hypervisor-controlled, EL2) + | + v +Physical Address (PA) +``` + +Each partition has its own stage-1 page tables (which it controls) and stage-2 page tables (which only the hypervisor can modify). This means: + +- A partition cannot access memory outside its assigned IPA range +- The hypervisor can remap, compress, or migrate physical pages without the partition's knowledge +- Zero-copy sharing is implemented by mapping the same PA into two partitions' stage-2 tables + +### 4.2 Physical Memory Allocator + +The physical allocator uses a buddy system with per-tier free lists: + +```rust +// ruvix-physmem/src/buddy.rs + +/// Physical memory allocator with tier-aware allocation. +pub struct PhysicalAllocator { + /// Buddy allocator for each tier + tiers: [BuddyAllocator; 4], // Hot, Warm, Dormant, Cold + + /// Total physical memory available + total_pages: usize, + + /// Per-tier statistics + stats: [TierStats; 4], +} + +impl PhysicalAllocator { + /// Allocate pages from a specific tier. + pub fn allocate_pages( + &mut self, + count: usize, + tier: MemoryTier, + ) -> Result { + self.tiers[tier as usize].allocate(count) + } + + /// Promote pages from a colder tier to a warmer tier. + /// + /// This is called when a dormant region is accessed. + pub fn promote( + &mut self, + range: PhysRange, + from: MemoryTier, + to: MemoryTier, + ) -> Result { + assert!(to < from, "promotion must go to a warmer tier"); + let new_range = self.tiers[to as usize].allocate(range.page_count())?; + // Copy and decompress if needed + self.copy_and_promote(range, new_range, from, to)?; + self.tiers[from as usize].free(range); + Ok(new_range) + } + + /// Demote pages to a colder tier. + /// + /// Pages are compressed (Dormant) or evicted (Cold). + pub fn demote( + &mut self, + range: PhysRange, + from: MemoryTier, + to: MemoryTier, + ) -> Result { + assert!(to > from, "demotion must go to a colder tier"); + match to { + MemoryTier::Dormant => self.compress_in_place(range), + MemoryTier::Cold => self.evict_to_storage(range), + _ => unreachable!(), + } + } +} +``` + +### 4.3 Memory Ownership via Rust's Type System + +Memory ownership is enforced at the type level. A `RegionHandle` is a non-copyable token: + +```rust +// ruvix-region/src/ownership.rs + +/// A typed memory region handle. Non-copyable, non-clonable. +/// +/// Ownership semantics: +/// - Exactly one partition owns a region at any time +/// - Transfer requires a proof and witness record +/// - Sharing creates a read-only view (not an ownership transfer) +/// - Dropping the handle does NOT free the region (the hypervisor manages lifetime) +pub struct OwnedRegion { + handle: RegionHandle, + owner: PartitionId, + _policy: PhantomData

All regions are physically backed at creation time. This is a deliberate design choice: + +- **Deterministic latency**: No page fault handler in the critical path +- **Simpler correctness proofs**: No hidden state in page tables +- **Better for real-time**: No unbounded delay from swap I/O + +The tradeoff is higher memory pressure, which is managed by the tier system: instead of swapping, RVM compresses (Dormant) or serializes (Cold) entire regions with explicit witness records. + +--- + +## 5.

Graph-theory-native isolation.** No other hypervisor uses mincut algorithms to determine isolation boundaries. KVM and Firecracker rely on the human to define VM boundaries. seL4 relies on the human to define CNode trees. RVM computes boundaries dynamically from observed communication patterns. + +**2. Proof-gated mutation.** seL4 has formal verification of the kernel binary, but does not gate runtime state mutations with proofs. RVM requires a cryptographic proof for every mutation, checked at three tiers (Reflex < 100ns, Standard < 100us, Deep < 10ms). + +**3. Witness-native auditability.** The witness log is not an optional feature or an afterthought. It is woven into every syscall path. Every privileged action produces a 64-byte witness record with a chained hash. The log is tamper-evident and supports deterministic replay. + +**4. Coherence-driven scheduling.** The scheduler does not just balance CPU load. It considers the graph structure of partition communication, novelty of incoming data, and structural risk of pending mutations. This is a fundamentally different optimization target. + +**5. Tiered memory without demand paging.** By eliminating page faults from the critical path and replacing them with explicit tier transitions, RVM achieves deterministic latency while still supporting memory overcommit through compression and serialization. + +**6. Agent-native runtime.** WASM agents are first-class entities with defined lifecycle states (spawn, execute, migrate, hibernate, reconstruct). The hypervisor understands agent communication patterns and uses them to optimize placement. + +### 12.3 Threat Model + +RVM assumes: + +- **Trusted**: The hypervisor binary (verified boot with ML-DSA-65 signatures), hardware +- **Untrusted**: All partition code, all agent WASM modules, all inter-partition messages +- **Partially trusted**: Device firmware (isolated via leases with bounded time) + +The capability system ensures that a compromised partition cannot: +- Access memory outside its stage-2 address space +- Send messages on edges it does not hold capabilities for +- Mutate kernel state without a valid proof +- Read the witness log without WITNESS capability +- Acquire devices without LEASE capability +- Modify another partition's coherence score + +### 12.4 Performance Targets + +| Operation | Target Latency | Bound | +|-----------|---------------|-------| +| Hypercall (syscall) round-trip | < 1 us | Hardware trap + capability check | +| Zero-copy message send | < 500 ns | Ring buffer enqueue + witness record | +| Notification signal | < 200 ns | Atomic OR + virtual IRQ inject | +| Proof verification (Reflex) | < 100 ns | Hash comparison | +| Proof verification (Standard) | < 100 us | Merkle witness verification | +| Proof verification (Deep) | < 10 ms | Full coherence check via solver | +| Partition split | < 50 ms | Stage-2 table creation + region remapping | +| Agent migration | < 100 ms | State serialize + transfer + restore | +| Coherence score computation | < 5 ms per epoch | Laplacian solve on sparsified graph | +| Witness record write | < 50 ns | Cache-line-aligned append | + +--- + +## Appendix A: Syscall Table (Extended for Hypervisor) + +The Phase A syscall table (12 syscalls) is extended with hypervisor-specific operations: + +| # | Syscall | Phase | Proof Required | Witnessed | +|---|---------|-------|----------------|-----------| +| 0 | `task_spawn` | A | No | Yes | +| 1 | `cap_grant` | A | No | Yes | +| 2 | `region_map` | A | No | Yes | +| 3 | `queue_send` | A | No | Yes | +| 4 | `queue_recv` | A | No | No (read-only) | +| 5 | `timer_wait` | A | No | No | +| 6 | `rvf_mount` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 7 | `attest_emit` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 8 | `vector_get` | A | No | No (read-only) | +| 9 | `vector_put_proved` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 10 | `graph_apply_proved` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 11 | `sensor_subscribe` | A | No | Yes | +| 12 | `partition_create` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 13 | `partition_split` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 14 | `partition_merge` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 15 | `partition_hibernate` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 16 | `partition_reconstruct` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 17 | `commedge_create` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 18 | `commedge_destroy` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 19 | `device_lease_acquire` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 20 | `device_lease_revoke` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 21 | `witness_read` | B+ | No | No (read-only) | +| 22 | `notify_signal` | B+ | No | Yes | +| 23 | `notify_wait` | B+ | No | No | + +## Appendix B: New Crate Summary + +| Crate | Purpose | Dependencies | Est.

Bare-Metal Rust OS/Hypervisor Projects + +### 1.1 RustyHermit (Hermit OS) + +**What it is:** A Rust-based lightweight unikernel targeting scalable and predictable runtime for high-performance and cloud computing. Originally a rewrite of HermitCore. + +**Boot model:** RustyHermit supports two deployment modes: (a) running inside a VM via the uhyve hypervisor (which itself requires KVM), and (b) running bare-metal side-by-side with Linux in a multi-kernel configuration. The uhyve path depends on KVM; the multi-kernel path allows bare-metal but assumes a Linux host for the other kernel. + +**Memory model:** Single address space unikernel model. The application and kernel share one address space with no process isolation boundary. Memory safety comes from Rust's ownership model rather than MMU page tables. + +**Scheduling:** Cooperative scheduling within the single unikernel image. No preemptive multitasking between isolated components. The scheduler is optimized for throughput rather than isolation. + +**RVM relevance:** RustyHermit demonstrates that a pure-Rust kernel can achieve competitive performance, but its unikernel design lacks the isolation model RVM requires. RVM's capability-gated multi-task model is fundamentally different. However, RustyHermit's approach to no_std Rust kernel bootstrapping and its minimal dependency chain are instructive for RVM's Phase B bare-metal port. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Unikernels trade isolation for performance. RVM takes the opposite stance -- isolation is non-negotiable, but it must be capability-based rather than process-based. + +### 1.2 Theseus OS + +**What it is:** A research OS written entirely in Rust exploring "intralingual design" -- closing the semantic gap between compiler and hardware by maximally leveraging language safety and affine types. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64 hardware (tested on Intel NUC, Thinkpad) and in QEMU. No dependency on Linux or KVM for operation. Uses a custom bootloader. + +**Memory model:** All code runs at Ring 0 in a single virtual address space, including user applications written in purely safe Rust. Protection comes from the Rust type system rather than hardware privilege levels. The OS can guarantee at compile time that a given application or kernel component cannot violate isolation between modules. + +**Scheduling:** Component-granularity scheduling where OS modules can be dynamically loaded and unloaded at runtime. State management is the central innovation -- Theseus minimizes the states one component holds for another, enabling live evolution of running system components. + +**RVM relevance:** Theseus's intralingual approach is the closest philosophical match to RVM. Both systems bet on Rust's type system as a primary isolation mechanism. However, Theseus runs everything at Ring 0, while RVM uses EL1/EL0 separation with hardware MMU enforcement as a defense-in-depth layer on top of type safety. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Language-level isolation can replace MMU-based isolation for trusted components, but hardware-enforced boundaries remain essential for untrusted WASM workloads. RVM's hybrid approach (type safety for kernel, MMU for user components) is well-positioned. + +### 1.3 RedLeaf + +**What it is:** An OS developed from scratch in Rust to explore the impact of language safety on OS organization. Published at OSDI 2020. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64. No Linux dependency. Custom bootloader with UEFI support. + +**Memory model:** Does not rely on hardware address spaces for isolation. Instead uses only type and memory safety of the Rust language. Introduces "language domains" as the unit of isolation -- a lightweight abstraction for information hiding and fault isolation. Domains can be dynamically loaded and cleanly terminated without affecting other domains. + +**Scheduling:** Domain-aware scheduling where the unit of execution is a domain rather than a process. Domains communicate through shared heaps with ownership transfer semantics that leverage Rust's ownership model for zero-copy IPC. + +**RVM relevance:** RedLeaf's domain model closely parallels RVM's capability-gated task model. Both systems achieve isolation without traditional process boundaries. RedLeaf's shared heap with ownership transfer is conceptually similar to RVM's queue-based IPC with zero-copy ring buffers. RedLeaf also achieves 10Gbps network driver performance matching DPDK, demonstrating that language-based isolation does not inherently sacrifice throughput. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Language domains with clean termination semantics map well to RVM's RVF component model. The ability to isolate and restart a crashed driver without system-wide impact is exactly what RVM needs for agent workloads. + +### 1.4 Tock OS + +**What it is:** A secure embedded OS for microcontrollers, written in Rust, designed for running multiple concurrent, mutually distrustful applications. + +**Boot model:** Runs on bare-metal Cortex-M and RISC-V microcontrollers. No OS dependency. Direct hardware boot. + +**Memory model:** Dual isolation strategy: +- **Capsules** (kernel components): Language-based isolation using safe Rust. Zero overhead. Capsules can only be written in safe Rust. +- **Processes** (applications): Hardware MPU isolation. The MPU limits which memory addresses a process can access; violations trap to the kernel. + +**Scheduling:** Priority-based preemptive scheduling with per-process grant regions for safe kernel-user memory sharing. Tock 2.2 (January 2025) achieved compilation on stable Rust for the first time. + +**RVM relevance:** Tock's dual isolation model (language for trusted, hardware for untrusted) is the same architectural pattern RVM employs. Tock's capsule model directly influenced RVM's approach to kernel extensions. The 2025 TickTock formal verification effort discovered five previously unknown MPU configuration bugs and two interrupt handling bugs that broke isolation -- a cautionary result for any system relying on MPU/MMU configuration correctness. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Formal verification of the MMU/MPU configuration code in ruvix-aarch64 should be a priority. The TickTock results demonstrate that even mature, well-tested isolation code can harbor subtle bugs. + +### 1.5 Hubris (Oxide Computer) + +**What it is:** A microkernel OS for deeply embedded systems, developed by Oxide Computer Company. Written entirely in Rust. Production-deployed in Oxide rack-mount server service controllers. + +**Boot model:** Bare-metal on ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. No OS dependency. Static binary with all tasks compiled together. + +**Memory model:** Strictly static architecture. No dynamic memory allocation. No runtime task creation or destruction. The kernel is approximately 2000 lines of Rust. Memory regions are assigned at compile time via a build system configuration (TOML-based task descriptions). + +**Scheduling:** Strictly synchronous IPC model. Preemptive priority-based scheduling. Tasks that crash can be restarted without affecting the rest of the system. No driver code runs in privileged mode. + +**RVM relevance:** Hubris demonstrates that a production-quality Rust microkernel can be extremely small (~2000 lines) while providing real isolation. Its static, no-allocation design philosophy aligns with RVM's "fixed memory layout" constraint. Hubris's approach to compile-time task configuration is analogous to RVM's RVF manifest-driven resource declaration. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Static resource declaration at boot (from RVF manifest) is a proven pattern. Hubris's production track record at Oxide validates the Rust microkernel approach for real hardware. + +### 1.6 Redox OS + +**What it is:** A complete Unix-like microkernel OS written in Rust, targeting general-purpose desktop and server use. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64 hardware. Custom bootloader with UEFI support. The 2025-2026 roadmap includes ARM and RISC-V support. + +**Memory model:** Traditional microkernel with hardware address space isolation. Processes run in separate address spaces. The kernel handles memory management, scheduling, and IPC. Device drivers run in userspace. + +**Scheduling:** Standard microkernel scheduling with userspace servers. Recent 2025 improvements yielded 500-700% file I/O performance gains. Self-hosting is a key roadmap goal. + +**RVM relevance:** Redox proves that a full microkernel OS can be written in Rust and run on real hardware. Its "everything in Rust" approach validates the toolchain. However, Redox's Unix-like POSIX interface is exactly the abstraction mismatch that RVM is designed to avoid. Redox optimizes for human-process workloads; RVM optimizes for agent-vector-graph workloads. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Redox's experience with driver isolation in userspace and its bare-metal boot process are directly transferable. But RVM should not adopt POSIX semantics. + +### 1.7 Hyperlight (Microsoft) + +**What it is:** A micro-VM manager that creates ultra-lightweight VMs with no OS inside. Open-sourced in 2024-2025, now in the CNCF Sandbox. + +**Boot model:** Creates VMs using hardware hypervisor support (Hyper-V on Windows, KVM on Linux, mshv on Azure). The VMs themselves contain no operating system -- just a linear memory slice and a CPU. VM creation takes 1-2ms, with warm-start latency of 0.9ms. + +**Memory model:** Each micro-VM gets a flat linear memory region. No virtual devices, no filesystem, no OS. The Hyperlight Wasm guest compiles wasmtime as a no_std Rust module that runs directly inside the micro-VM. + +**Scheduling:** Host-managed. The micro-VMs are extremely short-lived function executions. No internal scheduler needed. + +**RVM relevance:** Hyperlight demonstrates the "WASM-in-a-VM-with-no-OS" pattern that is extremely relevant to RVM. The key insight is that wasmtime can be compiled as a no_std component and run without any operating system. RVM's approach of embedding a WASM runtime directly in the kernel aligns with this pattern, but RVM goes further by providing kernel-native vector/graph primitives that Hyperlight lacks. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Wasmtime's no_std mode is production-viable. The Hyperlight architecture validates the "no OS needed for WASM execution" thesis. RVM should study Hyperlight's wasmtime-platform.h abstraction layer for the Phase B bare-metal WASM port. + +--- + +## 2. Capability-Based Systems + +### 2.1 seL4's Capability Model + +**Architecture:** seL4 is the gold standard for capability-based microkernels. It was the first OS kernel to receive a complete formal proof of functional correctness (8,700 lines of C verified from abstract specification down to binary). Every kernel resource is accessed through capabilities -- unforgeable tokens managed by the kernel. + +**Capability structure:** seL4 capabilities encode: an object pointer (which kernel object), access rights (what operations are permitted), and a badge (extra metadata for IPC demultiplexing). Capabilities are stored in CNodes (capability nodes), which are themselves accessed through capabilities, forming a recursive namespace. + +**Delegation and revocation:** Capabilities can be copied (with equal or lesser rights), moved between CNodes, and revoked. Revocation is recursive -- revoking a capability invalidates all capabilities derived from it. + +**Rust bindings:** The sel4-sys crate provides Rust bindings for seL4 system calls. Antmicro and Google developed a version designed for maintainability. The seL4 Microkit framework supports Rust as a first-class language. + +**RVM's adoption of seL4 concepts:** +- RVM's `ruvix-cap` crate implements seL4-style capabilities with `CapRights`, `CapHandle`, derivation trees, and epoch-based invalidation +- Maximum delegation depth of 8 (configurable) prevents unbounded chains +- Audit logging with depth-warning threshold at 4 +- The `GRANT_ONCE` right provides non-transitive delegation (not in seL4) +- Unlike seL4's C implementation, RVM's capability manager is `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` + +**Gap analysis:** seL4's formal verification is its strongest asset. RVM currently lacks formal proofs for its capability manager. The Tock/TickTock experience (five bugs found through verification) suggests formal verification of `ruvix-cap` should be prioritized. + +### 2.2 CHERI Hardware Capabilities + +**Architecture:** CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) extends processor ISAs with hardware-enforced capabilities. Rather than relying solely on page tables for memory protection, CHERI encodes bounds and permissions directly in pointer representations. Pointers become fat capabilities that carry their own access metadata. + +**ARM Morello:** Arm's Morello evaluation platform implemented CHERI extensions on an Armv8.2-A processor. Performance evaluation on 20 C/C++ applications showed overheads ranging from negligible to 1.65x, with the highest costs in pointer-intensive workloads. However, as of 2025, Arm has stepped back from active Morello development, pushing CHERI adoption toward smaller embedded processors. + +**Verified temporal safety:** A 2025 paper at CPP presented a formal CHERI C memory model for verified temporal safety, demonstrating that CHERI can enforce not just spatial safety (bounds) but also temporal safety (use-after-free prevention). + +**RVM relevance:** CHERI's capability-per-pointer model is more fine-grained than RVM's capability-per-object model. If future AArch64 processors include CHERI extensions, RVM could leverage them for sub-region protection within capability boundaries. In the near term, RVM achieves similar goals through Rust's ownership system (compile-time) and MMU page tables (runtime). + +**Key lesson for RVM:** CHERI demonstrates that hardware capabilities are feasible but face adoption challenges. RVM's software-capability approach (ruvix-cap) is the right near-term strategy, with CHERI as a future hardware acceleration path. The `ruvix-hal` HAL trait layer already allows for pluggable MMU implementations, which could be extended to CHERI capabilities. + +### 2.3 Barrelfish Multikernel + +**Architecture:** Barrelfish runs a separate small kernel ("CPU driver") on each core. Kernels share no memory. All inter-core communication is explicit message passing. The rationale: hardware cache coherence protocols are difficult to scale beyond ~80 cores, so Barrelfish makes communication explicit rather than relying on shared-memory illusions. + +**Capability model:** Barrelfish uses a capability system where the CPU driver maintains capabilities, executes syscalls on capabilities, and schedules dispatchers. Dispatchers are the unit of scheduling -- an application spanning multiple cores has a dispatcher per core, and dispatchers never migrate. + +**System knowledge base:** At boot, Barrelfish probes hardware to measure inter-core communication performance, stores results in a small database (SKB), and runs an optimizer to select communication patterns. + +**RVM relevance:** Barrelfish's per-core kernel model directly informs RVM's future Phase C (SMP) design. The `ruvix-smp` crate already provides CPU topology management, per-CPU state tracking, IPI messaging (Reschedule, TlbFlush, FunctionCall), and lock-free atomic state transitions -- all aligned with the multikernel philosophy. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** For multi-core RVM, the Barrelfish model suggests: (1) run a scheduler instance per core rather than a single shared scheduler, (2) use explicit message passing between per-core schedulers, (3) probe inter-core latency at boot and store in a performance database that the coherence-aware scheduler can consult. + +--- + +## 3. Coherence Protocols + +### 3.1 Hardware Cache Coherence: MOESI and MESIF + +**MESI (Modified, Exclusive, Shared, Invalid):** The baseline snooping protocol. Each cache line exists in one of four states. Write operations invalidate all other copies (write-invalidate). Simple but generates high bus traffic on writes to shared data. + +**MOESI (adds Owned):** AMD's extension. The Owned state allows a modified, shared line to serve reads directly from the owning cache rather than writing back to memory first. This reduces write-back traffic at the cost of more complex state transitions. + +**MESIF (adds Forward):** Intel's extension. The Forward state designates exactly one cache as the responder for shared-line requests, eliminating redundant responses when multiple caches hold the same shared line. Optimized for read-heavy sharing patterns. + +**Scalability limits:** All snooping protocols face fundamental scalability issues beyond ~32-64 cores because every cache must observe every bus transaction. This motivates the shift to directory-based protocols at higher core counts. + +### 3.2 Directory-Based Coherence + +**Architecture:** Instead of broadcasting on a bus, directory protocols maintain a centralized (or distributed) directory tracking which caches hold each line. Only the relevant caches receive invalidation messages. Traffic scales with the number of sharers rather than the number of cores. + +**Overhead:** Directory entries consume storage (bit-vector per cache line per core). For N cores with M cache lines, the directory requires O(N * M) bits. Various compression techniques (limited pointer directories, coarse directories) reduce this at the cost of precision. + +**Relevance to RVM:** Directory-based coherence is the hardware mechanism that enables many-core scaling. RVM's SMP design should account for NUMA effects and directory-based coherence latencies when making scheduling decisions. + +### 3.3 Software Coherence Protocols + +**Overview:** Software coherence replaces hardware snooping/directory mechanisms with explicit software-managed cache operations. The OS or runtime issues explicit cache flush/invalidate instructions at synchronization points. + +**Examples:** +- Linux's explicit DMA coherence management (`dma_map_single` with cache maintenance) +- Barrelfish's message-based coherence (no shared memory, explicit transfers) +- GPU compute models (explicit host-device memory transfers) + +**Trade-offs:** Software coherence eliminates hardware complexity but requires programmers (or compilers/runtimes) to correctly manage cache state. Errors lead to stale data or corruption. The benefit is full control over when coherence traffic occurs. + +### 3.4 Coherence Signals as Scheduling Inputs -- The RVM Innovation + +This is where RVM's design diverges from all existing systems. No existing OS uses coherence metrics as a scheduling signal. RVM's scheduler (ruvix-sched) computes priority as: + +``` +score = deadline_urgency + novelty_boost - risk_penalty +``` + +Where `risk_penalty` is derived from the pending coherence delta -- a measure of how much a task's execution would reduce global structural coherence. This is computed using spectral graph theory (Fiedler value, spectral gap, effective resistance) from the `ruvector-coherence` crate. + +**Why this matters:** Traditional schedulers optimize for latency, throughput, or fairness. RVM optimizes for structural consistency. A task that would introduce logical contradictions into the system's knowledge graph gets deprioritized. A task processing genuinely novel information gets boosted. This is the right scheduling objective for agent workloads where maintaining a coherent world model is more important than raw throughput. + +**No prior art exists** for coherence-driven scheduling in operating systems. The closest analogs are: +- Database transaction schedulers that consider serializability (but these gate on commit, not schedule) +- Network quality-of-service schedulers that consider flow coherence (but this is packet-level, not semantic) +- Game engine entity-component schedulers that consider data locality (but this is cache-coherence, not semantic coherence) + +--- + +## 4. Agent/Edge Computing Runtimes + +### 4.1 Wasmtime Bare-Metal Embedding + +**Current status:** Wasmtime can be compiled as a no_std Rust crate. The embedder must implement a platform abstraction layer (`wasmtime-platform.h`) specifying how to allocate virtual memory, handle signals, and manage threads. + +**Hyperlight precedent:** Microsoft's Hyperlight Wasm project compiles wasmtime into a no_std guest that runs inside micro-VMs with no operating system. This is the strongest proof-of-concept for wasmtime on bare metal. + +**Practical considerations:** +- Wasmtime's cranelift JIT compiler works in no_std mode but requires virtual memory for code generation +- The `signals-and-traps` feature can be disabled for platforms without virtual memory support +- Custom memory allocators must be provided via the platform abstraction + +**RVM integration path:** RVM's Phase B plan (weeks 35-36) specifies porting wasmtime or wasm-micro-runtime to bare metal. Given Hyperlight's success with no_std wasmtime, wasmtime is the recommended path. The `ruvix-hal` MMU trait can provide the virtual memory abstraction that wasmtime's platform layer requires. + +### 4.2 Lunatic (Erlang-Like WASM Runtime) + +**What it is:** A universal runtime for server-side applications inspired by Erlang. Actors are represented as WASM instances with per-actor sandboxing and runtime permissions. + +**Key features:** +- Preemptive scheduling of WASM processes via work-stealing async executor +- Per-process fine-grained resource access control (filesystem, memory, network) enforced at the syscall level +- Automatic transformation of blocking code into async operations +- Written in Rust using wasmtime and tokio, with custom stack switching + +**Agent workload alignment:** Lunatic's actor model closely matches agent workloads: +- Each agent is an isolated WASM instance (Lunatic process) +- Agents communicate through typed message passing +- A failing agent can be restarted without affecting others (supervision trees) +- Different agents can be written in different languages (polyglot via WASM) + +**RVM relevance:** Lunatic validates the "agents as lightweight WASM processes" model but runs on top of Linux (tokio for async I/O, wasmtime for WASM). RVM can adopt Lunatic's architectural patterns while eliminating the Linux dependency. Key patterns to adopt: +- Per-agent capability sets (RVM already has this via ruvix-cap) +- Supervision trees for agent fault recovery +- Work-stealing across cores (for Phase C SMP) + +### 4.3 How Agent Workloads Differ from Traditional VM Workloads + +| Dimension | Traditional VM/Container | Agent Workload | +|-----------|--------------------------|----------------| +| **Lifecycle** | Long-running process | Short-lived reasoning bursts + long idle | +| **State model** | Files and databases | Vectors, graphs, proof chains | +| **Communication** | TCP/Unix sockets | Typed semantic queues with coherence scores | +| **Isolation** | Address space separation | Capability-gated resource access | +| **Failure** | Kill and restart process | Isolate, checkpoint, replay from last coherent state | +| **Scheduling objective** | Fairness / throughput | Coherence preservation / novelty exploration | +| **Memory pattern** | Heap allocation / GC | Append-only regions + slab allocators | +| **Security model** | User/group permissions | Proof-gated mutations with attestation witnesses | + +### 4.4 What an Agent-Optimized Hypervisor Needs + +Based on the above analysis, an agent-optimized hypervisor requires: + +1. **Kernel-native vector/graph stores** -- Agents think in embeddings and knowledge graphs, not files. These must be first-class kernel objects, not userspace libraries serializing to disk. + +2. **Coherence-aware scheduling** -- The scheduler must understand that not all runnable tasks should run. A task that would decohere the world model should be delayed. + +3. **Proof-gated mutations** -- Every state change must carry a cryptographic witness. This enables checkpoint/replay, audit, and distributed attestation. + +4. **Zero-copy typed IPC** -- Agents exchange structured data (vectors, graph patches, proof tokens), not byte streams. The queue abstraction must be typed and schema-aware. + +5. **Sub-millisecond task spawn** -- Agent reasoning involves spawning many short-lived sub-tasks. Task creation must be cheaper than thread creation. + +6. **Capability delegation without kernel round-trip** -- Agents frequently delegate partial authority. This should be achievable through capability derivation in user space with kernel validation on use. + +7. **Deterministic replay** -- For debugging and audit, the kernel must support replaying a sequence of operations and reaching the same state. + +All seven of these requirements are already addressed by RVM's architecture (ADR-087). + +--- + +## 5. Graph-Partitioned Scheduling + +### 5.1 Min-Cut Based Task Placement + +**Theory:** Given a graph where nodes are tasks and edges represent communication volume, the minimum cut partitioning assigns tasks to processors to minimize inter-processor communication. The min-cut objective directly minimizes the scheduling overhead of cross-core data movement. + +**Algorithms:** +- Karger's randomized contraction: O(n^2 log n) for global min-cut +- Stoer-Wagner deterministic: O(nm + n^2 log n) for global min-cut +- KaHIP/METIS multilevel: Practical tools for balanced k-way partitioning + +**RVM's ruvector-mincut crate** implements subpolynomial dynamic min-cut with self-healing networks, including: +- Exact and (1+epsilon)-approximate algorithms +- j-Tree hierarchical decomposition for multi-level partitioning +- Canonical pseudo-deterministic min-cut (source-anchored, tree-packing, dynamic tiers) +- Agentic 256-core parallel backend +- SNN-based neural optimization (attractor, causal, morphogenetic, strange loop, time crystal) + +### 5.2 Spectral Partitioning for Workload Isolation + +**Theory:** Spectral partitioning uses the eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian to identify natural clusters. The Fiedler vector (eigenvector corresponding to the second-smallest eigenvalue) provides an optimal bisection -- the Cheeger bound guarantees that spectral bisection produces partitions with nearly optimal conductance. + +**RVM's ruvector-coherence spectral module** already implements: +- Fiedler value estimation via inverse iteration with CG solver +- Spectral gap ratio computation +- Effective resistance sampling +- Degree regularity scoring +- Composite Spectral Coherence Score (SCS) with incremental updates + +The SpectralTracker supports first-order perturbation updates (`delta_lambda ~ v^T * delta_L * v`) for incremental edge weight changes, avoiding full recomputation on every graph mutation. + +### 5.3 Dynamic Graph Rebalancing Under Load + +**Challenge:** Static partitioning fails when workload patterns change at runtime. Agents spawn, terminate, and change their communication patterns dynamically. + +**Approaches:** +- **Diffusion-based:** Migrate load from overloaded partitions to underloaded neighbors. O(diameter) convergence. Simple but can oscillate. +- **Repartitioning:** Periodically re-run the partitioner on the current communication graph. Expensive but globally optimal. +- **Incremental spectral:** Track the Fiedler vector incrementally (as ruvector-coherence does) and trigger repartitioning only when the spectral gap drops below a threshold. + +**RVM design implication:** The scheduler's partition manager (ruvix-sched/partition.rs) currently uses static round-robin partition scheduling with fixed time slices. The spectral coherence infrastructure from ruvector-coherence is already in the workspace (ruvix-sched depends on it optionally via the `coherence` feature flag). The path forward: + +1. Monitor the inter-task communication graph using queue message counters +2. Build a Laplacian from the communication weights +3. Compute the SCS incrementally using SpectralTracker +4. When SCS drops below threshold, trigger repartitioning using ruvector-mincut +5. Migrate tasks between partitions based on the new cut + +### 5.4 The ruvector-sparsifier Connection + +The ruvector-sparsifier crate provides dynamic spectral graph sparsification -- an "always-on compressed world model." For large task graphs, sparsification reduces the graph to O(n log n / epsilon^2) edges while preserving all cuts to within a (1+epsilon) factor. This means the scheduler can maintain an approximate communication graph at dramatically lower cost than the full graph, using it for partitioning decisions. + +--- + +## 6. Existing RuVector Crates Relevant to Hypervisor Design + +### 6.1 ruvector-mincut + +**Relevance: CRITICAL for graph-partitioned scheduling** + +- Provides the algorithmic backbone for task-to-partition assignment +- Subpolynomial dynamic min-cut means the scheduler can re-partition in response to workload changes without O(n^3) overhead +- The j-Tree hierarchical decomposition (feature `jtree`) maps directly to multi-level partition hierarchies +- The canonical min-cut feature provides deterministic partitioning -- the same communication graph always produces the same partition, enabling reproducible scheduling behavior +- SNN integration enables learned partitioning policies + +**Integration point:** Wire into ruvix-sched's PartitionManager to dynamically assign new tasks to optimal partitions based on their communication pattern with existing tasks. + +### 6.2 ruvector-sparsifier + +**Relevance: HIGH for scalable partition management** + +- Dynamic spectral sparsification keeps the scheduler's view of the task communication graph manageable as the number of tasks grows +- Static and dynamic modes: static for boot-time graph reduction, dynamic for runtime maintenance +- Preserves all cuts within (1+epsilon), so min-cut-based partition decisions remain valid on the sparsified graph +- SIMD and WASM feature flags for acceleration + +**Integration point:** Preprocess the inter-task communication graph through the sparsifier before feeding it to ruvector-mincut for partition computation. + +### 6.3 ruvector-solver + +**Relevance: HIGH for spectral computations** + +- Sublinear-time sparse linear system solver: O(log n) to O(sqrt(n)) for PageRank, Neumann series, forward/backward push, conjugate gradient +- Direct application: solving the graph Laplacian systems needed for Fiedler vector computation and effective resistance estimation +- The CG solver in ruvector-coherence/spectral.rs is a minimal inline implementation; ruvector-solver provides a more optimized, parallel version + +**Integration point:** Replace the inline CG solver in spectral.rs with ruvector-solver's optimized implementation for faster coherence score computation in the scheduler hot path. + +### 6.4 ruvector-cnn + +**Relevance: MODERATE for novelty detection** + +- CNN feature extraction for image embeddings with SIMD acceleration +- INT8 quantized inference for resource-constrained environments +- The scheduler's novelty tracker (ruvix-sched/novelty.rs) computes novelty as distance from a centroid in embedding space +- For vision-based agents, ruvector-cnn could provide the embedding that feeds into the novelty computation + +**Integration point:** In RVF component space (above the kernel), vision agents use ruvector-cnn for perception. The resulting embedding vectors feed into the kernel's novelty tracker through the `update_task_novelty` syscall. + +### 6.5 ruvector-coherence + +**Relevance: CRITICAL -- already integrated** + +- Provides the coherence measurement primitives that drive the scheduler's risk penalty +- Spectral module computes Fiedler value, spectral gap, effective resistance, degree regularity +- SpectralTracker supports incremental updates (first-order perturbation) +- HnswHealthMonitor provides health alerts when graph coherence degrades +- Already a workspace dependency of ruvix-sched (optional, behind `coherence` feature flag) + +**Integration point:** Already wired. The spectral coherence score feeds into `compute_risk_penalty()` in the priority module. + +### 6.6 ruvector-raft + +**Relevance: HIGH for distributed RVM clusters** + +- Raft consensus for distributed metadata coordination +- Relevant for Phase D (distributed RVM mesh, demo 5 in ADR-087) +- Provides leader election, log replication, and consistent state machine application +- Could coordinate partition assignments across a cluster of RVM nodes + +**Integration point:** Future use for distributed scheduling consensus in multi-node RVM deployments. + +### 6.7 Other Notable Crates + +| Crate | Relevance | Use | +|-------|-----------|-----| +| `ruvector-graph` | HIGH | Graph database for task communication topology | +| `ruvector-hyperbolic-hnsw` | MODERATE | Hierarchical embedding search for agent memory | +| `ruvector-delta-consensus` | HIGH | Delta-based consensus for distributed state | +| `ruvector-attention` | MODERATE | Attention mechanisms for priority computation | +| `sona` | MODERATE | Self-optimizing neural architecture for scheduler tuning | +| `ruvector-nervous-system` | LOW | Higher-level coordination (above kernel) | +| `thermorust` | LOW | Thermal monitoring for Raspberry Pi targets | +| `ruvector-verified` | HIGH | ProofGate, ProofEnvironment, attestation chain | + +--- + +## 7.

The entire ruvix-cap crate is `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` and is a good candidate. The ruvix-aarch64 crate contains inherent unsafe code (MMU manipulation) that would need different verification techniques (possibly refinement proofs as in seL4). + +2. **Coherence signal latency:** Computing spectral coherence scores involves linear algebra (CG solver, power iteration). Can this be fast enough for the scheduling hot path? The inline CG solver in spectral.rs uses 10-15 iterations; benchmarking against ruvector-solver's optimized version is needed. + +3. **WASM runtime selection:** Wasmtime's no_std support is proven (Hyperlight) but cranelift JIT requires virtual memory. For the initial Phase B port, should RVM use: (a) wasmtime with cranelift JIT (better performance, needs MMU), (b) wasmtime with winch baseline compiler (simpler, still needs MMU), or (c) wasm-micro-runtime (interpreter, no MMU needed, slower)? + +4. **Multi-core coherence architecture:** When Phase C introduces SMP, should the scheduler use: (a) a single shared scheduler with spinlock protection (simple, doesn't scale), (b) per-core schedulers with work-stealing (Lunatic model), or (c) per-core schedulers with message-passing (Barrelfish model)? The Barrelfish data suggests (c) for >8 cores. + +5. **Dynamic partition count:** The current PartitionManager uses a compile-time const generic `M` for maximum partitions. Should this be dynamic to support workloads with variable component counts? + +### 7.3 Recommended Next Steps + +1. **Immediate:** Wire `ruvector-mincut` into `ruvix-sched`'s PartitionManager for dynamic task-to-partition assignment based on communication graph analysis. + +2. **Phase B priority:** Study Hyperlight's wasmtime no_std integration for the bare-metal WASM runtime port. The `wasmtime-platform.h` abstraction maps cleanly to `ruvix-hal` traits. + +3. **Verification:** Begin formal verification of `ruvix-cap` using Kani (Rust model checker) or Creusot. The `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` constraint makes this tractable. + +4. **Benchmarking:** Measure spectral coherence computation latency in the scheduling hot path. If too slow, implement a fast-path approximation that falls back to full computation periodically (the SpectralTracker already supports this with `refresh_threshold`). + +5. **Phase C design:** Adopt Barrelfish's per-core kernel model for SMP. The `ruvix-smp` crate's topology and IPI infrastructure is already aligned with this approach. + +--- + +## 8.

[What Makes RVM Different](#12-what-makes-ruvix-different) + +--- + +## 1. Design Principles + +### 1.1 Not a VM, Not a Container -- a Coherence Domain + +Traditional hypervisors (KVM, Xen, Firecracker) virtualize hardware to run guest operating systems. Traditional containers (Docker, gVisor) share a host kernel with namespace isolation. RVM does neither. + +A RVM **partition** is a coherence domain: a set of memory regions, capabilities, communication edges, and scheduled tasks that form a self-consistent unit of computation. Partitions are not VMs -- they have no emulated hardware, no guest kernel, no BIOS. They are not containers -- there is no host kernel to share. The hypervisor is the kernel. + +The unit of isolation is defined by the graph structure of partition communication, not by hardware virtualization features. A mincut of the communication graph reveals the natural fault isolation boundary. This is a fundamentally different model. + +### 1.2 Core Invariants + +These invariants hold for every operation in the system: + +| ID | Invariant | Enforcement | +|----|-----------|-------------| +| INV-1 | No mutation without proof | `ProofGate` at type level, 3-tier verification | +| INV-2 | No access without capability | Capability table checked on every syscall | +| INV-3 | Every privileged action is witnessed | Append-only witness log, no opt-out | +| INV-4 | No unbounded allocation in syscall path | Pre-allocated structures, slab allocators | +| INV-5 | No priority inversion | Capability-based access prevents blocking on unheld resources | +| INV-6 | Reconstruction from witness + dormant state | Deterministic replay from checkpoint + log | + +### 1.3 Crate Dependency DAG + +``` +ruvix-types (no_std, #![forbid(unsafe_code)]) + | + +-- ruvix-cap (capability manager, derivation trees) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-proof (3-tier proof engine) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-region (typed memory with ownership) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-queue (io_uring-style IPC) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-sched (graph-pressure scheduler) + | | + +-------+-- ruvix-vecgraph (kernel-resident vector/graph) + | + +-- ruvix-hal (HAL traits, platform-agnostic) + | | + | +-- ruvix-aarch64 (ARM boot, MMU, exceptions) + | +-- ruvix-riscv (RISC-V boot, MMU, exceptions) [Phase C] + | +-- ruvix-x86_64 (x86 boot, VMX, exceptions) [Phase D] + | + +-- ruvix-physmem (buddy allocator) + +-- ruvix-dtb (device tree parser) + +-- ruvix-drivers (PL011, GIC, timer) + +-- ruvix-dma (DMA engine) + +-- ruvix-net (virtio-net) + +-- ruvix-witness (witness log + replay) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-partition (coherence domain manager) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-commedge (partition communication) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-pressure (mincut integration) [NEW] + +-- ruvix-agent (WASM agent runtime) [NEW] + | + +-- ruvix-nucleus (integration, syscall dispatch) +``` + +--- + +## 2.

Partitions can have their own page tables (stage-1) while the hypervisor enforces isolation via stage-2 tables. This is strictly more powerful than single-stage translation. + +2. **Trap-and-emulate without paravirtualization**: The hypervisor can trap on specific instructions (WFI, MSR, MMIO access) without requiring the partition to be aware it is virtualized. This is essential for running unmodified WASM runtimes. + +**Stage-2 page table setup (AArch64):** + +```rust +// ruvix-aarch64/src/stage2.rs + +/// Stage-2 translation table for a partition. +/// +/// Maps Intermediate Physical Addresses (IPA) produced by the partition's +/// stage-1 tables to actual Physical Addresses (PA).

Core Kernel Objects + +RVM defines eight first-class kernel objects. The first six (Task, Capability, Region, Queue, Timer, Proof) are inherited from Phase A (ADR-087). The remaining two (Partition, CommEdge) plus the supplementary metric objects (CoherenceScore, CutPressure, DeviceLease) are new to the hypervisor architecture. + +### 3.1 Partition (Coherence Domain Container) + +A partition is the primary execution container.

Graph-theory-native isolation.** No other hypervisor uses mincut algorithms to determine isolation boundaries. KVM and Firecracker rely on the human to define VM boundaries. seL4 relies on the human to define CNode trees. RVM computes boundaries dynamically from observed communication patterns. + +**2. Proof-gated mutation.** seL4 has formal verification of the kernel binary, but does not gate runtime state mutations with proofs. RVM requires a cryptographic proof for every mutation, checked at three tiers (Reflex < 100ns, Standard < 100us, Deep < 10ms). + +**3. Witness-native auditability.** The witness log is not an optional feature or an afterthought. It is woven into every syscall path. Every privileged action produces a 64-byte witness record with a chained hash. The log is tamper-evident and supports deterministic replay. + +**4. Coherence-driven scheduling.** The scheduler does not just balance CPU load. It considers the graph structure of partition communication, novelty of incoming data, and structural risk of pending mutations. This is a fundamentally different optimization target. + +**5. Tiered memory without demand paging.** By eliminating page faults from the critical path and replacing them with explicit tier transitions, RVM achieves deterministic latency while still supporting memory overcommit through compression and serialization. + +**6. Agent-native runtime.** WASM agents are first-class entities with defined lifecycle states (spawn, execute, migrate, hibernate, reconstruct). The hypervisor understands agent communication patterns and uses them to optimize placement. + +### 12.3 Threat Model + +RVM assumes: + +- **Trusted**: The hypervisor binary (verified boot with ML-DSA-65 signatures), hardware +- **Untrusted**: All partition code, all agent WASM modules, all inter-partition messages +- **Partially trusted**: Device firmware (isolated via leases with bounded time) + +The capability system ensures that a compromised partition cannot: +- Access memory outside its stage-2 address space +- Send messages on edges it does not hold capabilities for +- Mutate kernel state without a valid proof +- Read the witness log without WITNESS capability +- Acquire devices without LEASE capability +- Modify another partition's coherence score + +### 12.4 Performance Targets + +| Operation | Target Latency | Bound | +|-----------|---------------|-------| +| Hypercall (syscall) round-trip | < 1 us | Hardware trap + capability check | +| Zero-copy message send | < 500 ns | Ring buffer enqueue + witness record | +| Notification signal | < 200 ns | Atomic OR + virtual IRQ inject | +| Proof verification (Reflex) | < 100 ns | Hash comparison | +| Proof verification (Standard) | < 100 us | Merkle witness verification | +| Proof verification (Deep) | < 10 ms | Full coherence check via solver | +| Partition split | < 50 ms | Stage-2 table creation + region remapping | +| Agent migration | < 100 ms | State serialize + transfer + restore | +| Coherence score computation | < 5 ms per epoch | Laplacian solve on sparsified graph | +| Witness record write | < 50 ns | Cache-line-aligned append | + +--- + +## Appendix A: Syscall Table (Extended for Hypervisor) + +The Phase A syscall table (12 syscalls) is extended with hypervisor-specific operations: + +| # | Syscall | Phase | Proof Required | Witnessed | +|---|---------|-------|----------------|-----------| +| 0 | `task_spawn` | A | No | Yes | +| 1 | `cap_grant` | A | No | Yes | +| 2 | `region_map` | A | No | Yes | +| 3 | `queue_send` | A | No | Yes | +| 4 | `queue_recv` | A | No | No (read-only) | +| 5 | `timer_wait` | A | No | No | +| 6 | `rvf_mount` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 7 | `attest_emit` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 8 | `vector_get` | A | No | No (read-only) | +| 9 | `vector_put_proved` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 10 | `graph_apply_proved` | A | Yes | Yes | +| 11 | `sensor_subscribe` | A | No | Yes | +| 12 | `partition_create` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 13 | `partition_split` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 14 | `partition_merge` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 15 | `partition_hibernate` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 16 | `partition_reconstruct` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 17 | `commedge_create` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 18 | `commedge_destroy` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 19 | `device_lease_acquire` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 20 | `device_lease_revoke` | B+ | Yes | Yes | +| 21 | `witness_read` | B+ | No | No (read-only) | +| 22 | `notify_signal` | B+ | No | Yes | +| 23 | `notify_wait` | B+ | No | No | + +## Appendix B: New Crate Summary + +| Crate | Purpose | Dependencies | Est.

RVM does NOT depend on Linux or KVM. It boots +directly on hardware (AArch64 primary, x86_64 secondary) and enforces all isolation through its +own MMU page tables, capability system, and proof-gated mutation protocol. + +The security model builds on the primitives already implemented in Phase A (ruvix-types, +ruvix-cap, ruvix-proof, ruvix-region, ruvix-queue, ruvix-vecgraph, ruvix-nucleus) and extends +them for bare-metal operation with hardware-enforced isolation. + +--- + +## 1. Capability-Based Authority + +### 1.1 Design Philosophy + +RVM enforces the principle of least authority through capabilities. There is no ambient +authority anywhere in the system. Every syscall requires an explicit capability handle that +authorizes the operation. This means: + +- No global namespaces (no filesystem paths, no PIDs, no network ports accessible by name) +- No superuser or root -- the root task holds initial capabilities but cannot bypass the model +- No default permissions -- a newly spawned task has exactly the capabilities its parent + explicitly grants via `cap_grant` +- No ambient access to hardware -- device MMIO regions, interrupt lines, and DMA channels + are all gated by capabilities + +### 1.2 Capability Structure + +Capabilities are kernel-resident objects. User-space code never sees the raw capability; it +holds an opaque `CapHandle` that the kernel resolves through a per-task capability table. + +```rust +/// The kernel-side capability. User space never sees this directly. +/// File: crates/ruvix/crates/types/src/capability.rs +#[repr(C)] +pub struct Capability { + pub object_id: u64, // Kernel object being referenced + pub object_type: ObjectType, // Region, Queue, VectorStore, Task, etc. + pub rights: CapRights, // Bitmap of permitted operations + pub badge: u64, // Caller-visible demux identifier + pub epoch: u64, // Revocation epoch (stale handles detected) +} +``` + +**Rights bitmap** (from `crates/ruvix/crates/types/src/capability.rs`): + +| Right | Bit | Authorizes | +|-------|-----|------------| +| `READ` | 0 | `vector_get`, `queue_recv`, region read | +| `WRITE` | 1 | `queue_send`, region append/slab write | +| `GRANT` | 2 | `cap_grant` to another task | +| `REVOKE` | 3 | Revoke capabilities derived from this one | +| `EXECUTE` | 4 | Task entry point, RVF component execution | +| `PROVE` | 5 | Generate proof tokens (`vector_put_proved`, `graph_apply_proved`) | +| `GRANT_ONCE` | 6 | Non-transitive grant (derived cap cannot re-grant) | + +### 1.3 Capability Delegation and Attenuation + +Delegation follows strict monotonic attenuation: a task can only grant capabilities it holds, +and the granted rights must be a subset of the held rights. This is enforced at the type level +in `Capability::derive()`: + +```rust +/// Derive a capability with equal or fewer rights. +/// Returns None if rights escalation is attempted or GRANT right is absent. +pub fn derive(&self, new_rights: CapRights, new_badge: u64) -> Option { + if !self.has_rights(CapRights::GRANT) { return None; } + if !new_rights.is_subset_of(self.rights) { return None; } + // GRANT_ONCE strips GRANT from the derived cap + let final_rights = if self.rights.contains(CapRights::GRANT_ONCE) { + new_rights.difference(CapRights::GRANT).difference(CapRights::GRANT_ONCE) + } else { + new_rights + }; + Some(Self { rights: final_rights, badge: new_badge, ..*self }) +} +``` + +**Delegation depth limit**: Maximum 8 levels (configurable per RVF manifest). The derivation +tree tracks the full chain, and audit flags chains deeper than 4 (AUDIT_DEPTH_WARNING_THRESHOLD). + +### 1.4 Capability Revocation + +Revocation propagates through the derivation tree. When a capability is revoked: + +1. The capability's epoch is incremented in the kernel's object table +2. All entries in the derivation tree rooted at the revoked capability are invalidated +3. Any held `CapHandle` referencing the old epoch returns `KernelError::StaleCapability` + +This is O(d) where d is the number of derived capabilities, bounded by the delegation depth +limit and the per-task capability table size (1024 entries max). + +### 1.5 How This Differs from DAC/MAC + +| Property | DAC (Unix) | MAC (SELinux) | Capability (RVM) | +|----------|-----------|---------------|-------------------| +| Authority source | User identity | System-wide policy labels | Explicit token per object | +| Ambient authority | Yes (UID 0) | Yes (unconfined domain) | None | +| Confused deputy | Possible | Mitigated by labels | Prevented by design | +| Delegation | chmod/chown | Policy reload | `cap_grant` with attenuation | +| Revocation | File permission change | Policy reload | Tree-propagating, epoch-based | +| Granularity | File/directory | Type/role/level | Per-object, per-right | + +The critical difference: in RVM, authority is carried by the message, not the sender's +identity. A task cannot access a resource simply because of "who it is" -- it must present +a valid capability handle that was explicitly granted to it through a traceable delegation chain. + +--- + +## 2. Proof-Gated Mutation + +### 2.1 Invariant + +**No state mutation without a valid proof token.** This is a kernel invariant, not a policy. +The kernel physically prevents mutation of vector stores, graph stores, and RVF mounts without +a `ProofToken` that passes all verification steps. Read operations (`vector_get`, `queue_recv`) +do not require proofs. + +### 2.2 What Constitutes a Valid Proof + +A proof token must pass six verification steps (implemented in +`crates/ruvix/crates/vecgraph/src/proof_policy.rs` `ProofVerifier::verify()`): + +1. **Capability check**: The calling task must hold a capability with `PROVE` right on the + target object +2. **Hash match**: `proof.mutation_hash == expected_mutation_hash` -- the proof authorizes + exactly the mutation being applied +3. **Tier satisfaction**: `proof.tier >= policy.required_tier` -- higher tiers satisfy lower + requirements (Deep satisfies Standard satisfies Reflex) +4. **Time bound**: `current_time_ns <= proof.valid_until_ns` -- proofs expire +5. **Validity window**: The window `proof.valid_until_ns - current_time_ns` must not exceed + `policy.max_validity_window_ns` (prevents pre-computing proofs far in advance) +6. **Nonce uniqueness**: Each nonce can be consumed exactly once (ring buffer of 64 recent + nonces prevents replay) + +### 2.3 Proof Tiers + +Three tiers provide a latency/assurance tradeoff: + +| Tier | Name | Latency Budget | Payload | Use Case | +|------|------|---------------|---------|----------| +| 0 | Reflex | <1 us | SHA-256 hash | High-frequency vector updates | +| 1 | Standard | <100 us | Merkle witness (root + path) | Graph mutations | +| 2 | Deep | <10 ms | Coherence certificate (scores + partition + signature) | Structural changes | + +### 2.4 Proof Lifecycle + +``` + Task Proof Engine (RVF component) Kernel + | | | + |-- prepare mutation --------->| | + | (compute mutation_hash) | | + | |-- evaluate coherence state ----->| + | |<-- current state ----------------| + | | | + |<-- ProofToken ---------------| | + | (hash, tier, payload, | | + | expiry, nonce) | | + | | | + |-- syscall (token) ------------------------------------------>| + | | + | Kernel verifies 6 steps: | + | 1.

This mapping requires: + +1. A capability with `READ` and/or `WRITE` rights on the device object +2. A `ProofToken` with tier >= Standard proving the task's intent matches the device mapping +3. The device must not already be mapped to another partition (exclusive lease) + +```rust +/// Extended region policy for bare-metal device access. +/// New for Phase B -- extends the existing RegionPolicy enum. +pub enum RegionPolicy { + Immutable, + AppendOnly { max_size: usize }, + Slab { slot_size: usize, slot_count: usize }, + /// Device MMIO region.

Implemented by the migration subsystem. +pub trait MigrationAuthority { + /// Verify that migration of this partition is authorized. + /// Returns the serialized partition state only if proof validates. + fn authorize_migration( + &mut self, + partition_id: u32, + destination_attestation: &ProofAttestation, + proof: &ProofToken, + ) -> Result; + + /// Accept an incoming migrated partition. + /// Verifies the source attestation and proof before instantiating. + fn accept_migration( + &mut self, + serialized: &SerializedPartition, + source_attestation: &ProofAttestation, + proof: &ProofToken, + ) -> Result; +} +``` + +### 2.8 Proof-Gated Partition Merge/Split + +Graph partitions (mincut boundaries in the vecgraph store) can only be merged or split with a +Deep-tier proof that includes the coherence impact analysis: + +```rust +pub enum GraphMutationKind { + AddNode { /* ... */ }, + RemoveNode { /* ... */ }, + AddEdge { /* ... */ }, + RemoveEdge { /* ... */ }, + UpdateWeight { /* ... */ }, + /// Merge two partitions.

Requires Deep-tier proof. + SplitPartition { + partition: u32, + cut_specification: MinCutSpec, + }, +} +``` + +--- + +## 3. Witness-Native Audit + +### 3.1 Design Principle + +Every privileged action in RVM emits a witness record to the kernel's append-only witness +log. "Privileged action" means any syscall that mutates kernel state: vector writes, graph +mutations, RVF mounts, task spawns, capability grants, region mappings. + +### 3.2 Witness Record Format + +Each record is 96 bytes, compact enough to sustain thousands of records per second on embedded +hardware without blocking the syscall path: + +```rust +/// 96-byte witness record. +/// File: crates/ruvix/crates/nucleus/src/witness_log.rs +#[repr(C)] +pub struct WitnessRecord { + pub sequence: u64, // Monotonically increasing (8 bytes) + pub kind: WitnessRecordKind, // Boot, Mount, VectorMutation, etc. (1 byte) + pub timestamp_ns: u64, // Nanoseconds since boot (8 bytes) + pub mutation_hash: [u8; 32], // SHA-256 of the mutation data (32 bytes) + pub attestation_hash: [u8; 32], // Hash of the proof attestation (32 bytes) + pub resource_id: u64, // Object identifier (8 bytes) + // 7 bytes padding to 96 +} +``` + +**Record kinds**: + +| Kind | Value | Emitted By | +|------|-------|-----------| +| `Boot` | 0 | `kernel_entry` at boot completion | +| `Mount` | 1 | `rvf_mount` syscall | +| `VectorMutation` | 2 | `vector_put_proved` syscall | +| `GraphMutation` | 3 | `graph_apply_proved` syscall | +| `Checkpoint` | 4 | Periodic state snapshots | +| `ReplayComplete` | 5 | After replaying from checkpoint | +| `CapGrant` | 6 | `cap_grant` syscall (proposed extension) | +| `CapRevoke` | 7 | Capability revocation (proposed extension) | +| `TaskSpawn` | 8 | `task_spawn` syscall (proposed extension) | +| `DeviceMap` | 9 | Device MMIO mapping (proposed extension) | + +### 3.3 Tamper Evidence + +The witness log must be tamper-evident. The current Phase A implementation uses simple +append-only semantics with FNV-1a hashing. For bare-metal, the following extensions are +required: + +**Hash chaining**: Each witness record includes the hash of the previous record, forming a +Merkle-like chain. Tampering with any record invalidates all subsequent records. + +```rust +/// Extended witness record with hash chaining for tamper evidence. +pub struct ChainedWitnessRecord { + /// The base witness record (96 bytes). + pub record: WitnessRecord, + /// SHA-256 hash of the previous record's serialized bytes. + /// For the first record (sequence 0), this is all zeros. + pub prev_hash: [u8; 32], + /// SHA-256(serialize(record) || prev_hash). Computed by the kernel. + pub chain_hash: [u8; 32], +} +``` + +**TEE signing (when available)**: On hardware with TrustZone (Raspberry Pi 4/5), witness +records can be signed by the Secure World using a device-unique key. This means even a +compromised kernel (EL1) cannot forge witness entries: + +```rust +/// Trait for hardware-backed witness signing. +pub trait WitnessSigner { + /// Sign a chained witness record using hardware-bound key. + /// On AArch64 with TrustZone, this issues an SMC to Secure World. + /// On platforms without TEE, returns None (software chain only). + fn sign_witness(&self, record: &ChainedWitnessRecord) -> Option<[u8; 64]>; + + /// Verify a signed witness record. + fn verify_witness_signature( + &self, + record: &ChainedWitnessRecord, + signature: &[u8; 64], + ) -> bool; +} +``` + +### 3.4 Replayability and Forensics + +The witness log, combined with periodic checkpoints, enables deterministic replay: + +1. **Checkpoint**: The kernel serializes all vector stores, graph stores, capability tables, + and scheduler state to an immutable region. A `WitnessRecordKind::Checkpoint` record + captures the state hash and the witness sequence number at checkpoint time. + +2. **Replay**: Starting from a checkpoint, the kernel replays all witness records in sequence + order, re-applying each mutation. Because mutations are deterministic (same proof token + + same state = same result), the final state is identical. + +3. **Forensic query**: External tools can load the witness log and answer questions like: + - "Which task mutated vector store X between timestamps T1 and T2?" + - "What was the coherence score before and after each graph mutation?" + - "Has the hash chain been broken?" (indicates tampering) + +### 3.5 Witness-Enabled Rollback/Recovery + +If a coherence violation is detected (coherence score drops below the configured threshold), +the kernel can: + +1. Stop accepting new mutations to the affected partition +2. Find the most recent checkpoint where coherence was above threshold +3. Replay witnesses from that checkpoint, skipping the offending mutation +4. Resume normal operation from the corrected state + +This requires the offending mutation to be identified by its witness record (the mutation_hash +and attestation_hash pinpoint exactly which operation caused the violation). + +--- + +## 4. Isolation Model + +### 4.1 Partition Isolation Guarantees + +RVM partitions are the unit of isolation. Each partition consists of: + +- One or more tasks sharing a capability namespace +- A set of regions (memory objects) accessible only through capabilities held by those tasks +- Queue endpoints for controlled inter-partition communication + +**Isolation guarantee**: A partition cannot access any memory, device, or kernel object for +which it does not hold a valid capability.

RVM does NOT depend on Linux or KVM. It boots +directly on hardware (AArch64 primary, x86_64 secondary) and enforces all isolation through its +own MMU page tables, capability system, and proof-gated mutation protocol. + +The security model builds on the primitives already implemented in Phase A (ruvix-types, +ruvix-cap, ruvix-proof, ruvix-region, ruvix-queue, ruvix-vecgraph, ruvix-nucleus) and extends +them for bare-metal operation with hardware-enforced isolation. + +--- + +## 1. Capability-Based Authority + +### 1.1 Design Philosophy + +RVM enforces the principle of least authority through capabilities. There is no ambient +authority anywhere in the system. Every syscall requires an explicit capability handle that +authorizes the operation. This means: + +- No global namespaces (no filesystem paths, no PIDs, no network ports accessible by name) +- No superuser or root -- the root task holds initial capabilities but cannot bypass the model +- No default permissions -- a newly spawned task has exactly the capabilities its parent + explicitly grants via `cap_grant` +- No ambient access to hardware -- device MMIO regions, interrupt lines, and DMA channels + are all gated by capabilities + +### 1.2 Capability Structure + +Capabilities are kernel-resident objects. User-space code never sees the raw capability; it +holds an opaque `CapHandle` that the kernel resolves through a per-task capability table. + +```rust +/// The kernel-side capability. User space never sees this directly. +/// File: crates/ruvix/crates/types/src/capability.rs +#[repr(C)] +pub struct Capability { + pub object_id: u64, // Kernel object being referenced + pub object_type: ObjectType, // Region, Queue, VectorStore, Task, etc. + pub rights: CapRights, // Bitmap of permitted operations + pub badge: u64, // Caller-visible demux identifier + pub epoch: u64, // Revocation epoch (stale handles detected) +} +``` + +**Rights bitmap** (from `crates/ruvix/crates/types/src/capability.rs`): + +| Right | Bit | Authorizes | +|-------|-----|------------| +| `READ` | 0 | `vector_get`, `queue_recv`, region read | +| `WRITE` | 1 | `queue_send`, region append/slab write | +| `GRANT` | 2 | `cap_grant` to another task | +| `REVOKE` | 3 | Revoke capabilities derived from this one | +| `EXECUTE` | 4 | Task entry point, RVF component execution | +| `PROVE` | 5 | Generate proof tokens (`vector_put_proved`, `graph_apply_proved`) | +| `GRANT_ONCE` | 6 | Non-transitive grant (derived cap cannot re-grant) | + +### 1.3 Capability Delegation and Attenuation + +Delegation follows strict monotonic attenuation: a task can only grant capabilities it holds, +and the granted rights must be a subset of the held rights. This is enforced at the type level +in `Capability::derive()`: + +```rust +/// Derive a capability with equal or fewer rights. +/// Returns None if rights escalation is attempted or GRANT right is absent. +pub fn derive(&self, new_rights: CapRights, new_badge: u64) -> Option { + if !self.has_rights(CapRights::GRANT) { return None; } + if !new_rights.is_subset_of(self.rights) { return None; } + // GRANT_ONCE strips GRANT from the derived cap + let final_rights = if self.rights.contains(CapRights::GRANT_ONCE) { + new_rights.difference(CapRights::GRANT).difference(CapRights::GRANT_ONCE) + } else { + new_rights + }; + Some(Self { rights: final_rights, badge: new_badge, ..*self }) +} +``` + +**Delegation depth limit**: Maximum 8 levels (configurable per RVF manifest).

Witness-Native Audit + +### 3.1 Design Principle + +Every privileged action in RVM emits a witness record to the kernel's append-only witness +log. "Privileged action" means any syscall that mutates kernel state: vector writes, graph +mutations, RVF mounts, task spawns, capability grants, region mappings. + +### 3.2 Witness Record Format + +Each record is 96 bytes, compact enough to sustain thousands of records per second on embedded +hardware without blocking the syscall path: + +```rust +/// 96-byte witness record. +/// File: crates/ruvix/crates/nucleus/src/witness_log.rs +#[repr(C)] +pub struct WitnessRecord { + pub sequence: u64, // Monotonically increasing (8 bytes) + pub kind: WitnessRecordKind, // Boot, Mount, VectorMutation, etc. (1 byte) + pub timestamp_ns: u64, // Nanoseconds since boot (8 bytes) + pub mutation_hash: [u8; 32], // SHA-256 of the mutation data (32 bytes) + pub attestation_hash: [u8; 32], // Hash of the proof attestation (32 bytes) + pub resource_id: u64, // Object identifier (8 bytes) + // 7 bytes padding to 96 +} +``` + +**Record kinds**: + +| Kind | Value | Emitted By | +|------|-------|-----------| +| `Boot` | 0 | `kernel_entry` at boot completion | +| `Mount` | 1 | `rvf_mount` syscall | +| `VectorMutation` | 2 | `vector_put_proved` syscall | +| `GraphMutation` | 3 | `graph_apply_proved` syscall | +| `Checkpoint` | 4 | Periodic state snapshots | +| `ReplayComplete` | 5 | After replaying from checkpoint | +| `CapGrant` | 6 | `cap_grant` syscall (proposed extension) | +| `CapRevoke` | 7 | Capability revocation (proposed extension) | +| `TaskSpawn` | 8 | `task_spawn` syscall (proposed extension) | +| `DeviceMap` | 9 | Device MMIO mapping (proposed extension) | + +### 3.3 Tamper Evidence + +The witness log must be tamper-evident. The current Phase A implementation uses simple +append-only semantics with FNV-1a hashing. For bare-metal, the following extensions are +required: + +**Hash chaining**: Each witness record includes the hash of the previous record, forming a +Merkle-like chain. Tampering with any record invalidates all subsequent records. + +```rust +/// Extended witness record with hash chaining for tamper evidence. +pub struct ChainedWitnessRecord { + /// The base witness record (96 bytes). + pub record: WitnessRecord, + /// SHA-256 hash of the previous record's serialized bytes. + /// For the first record (sequence 0), this is all zeros. + pub prev_hash: [u8; 32], + /// SHA-256(serialize(record) || prev_hash). Computed by the kernel. + pub chain_hash: [u8; 32], +} +``` + +**TEE signing (when available)**: On hardware with TrustZone (Raspberry Pi 4/5), witness +records can be signed by the Secure World using a device-unique key. This means even a +compromised kernel (EL1) cannot forge witness entries: + +```rust +/// Trait for hardware-backed witness signing. +pub trait WitnessSigner { + /// Sign a chained witness record using hardware-bound key. + /// On AArch64 with TrustZone, this issues an SMC to Secure World. + /// On platforms without TEE, returns None (software chain only). + fn sign_witness(&self, record: &ChainedWitnessRecord) -> Option<[u8; 64]>; + + /// Verify a signed witness record. + fn verify_witness_signature( + &self, + record: &ChainedWitnessRecord, + signature: &[u8; 64], + ) -> bool; +} +``` + +### 3.4 Replayability and Forensics + +The witness log, combined with periodic checkpoints, enables deterministic replay: + +1. **Checkpoint**: The kernel serializes all vector stores, graph stores, capability tables, + and scheduler state to an immutable region. A `WitnessRecordKind::Checkpoint` record + captures the state hash and the witness sequence number at checkpoint time. + +2. **Replay**: Starting from a checkpoint, the kernel replays all witness records in sequence + order, re-applying each mutation. Because mutations are deterministic (same proof token + + same state = same result), the final state is identical. + +3. **Forensic query**: External tools can load the witness log and answer questions like: + - "Which task mutated vector store X between timestamps T1 and T2?" + - "What was the coherence score before and after each graph mutation?" + - "Has the hash chain been broken?" (indicates tampering) + +### 3.5 Witness-Enabled Rollback/Recovery + +If a coherence violation is detected (coherence score drops below the configured threshold), +the kernel can: + +1. Stop accepting new mutations to the affected partition +2. Find the most recent checkpoint where coherence was above threshold +3. Replay witnesses from that checkpoint, skipping the offending mutation +4. Resume normal operation from the corrected state + +This requires the offending mutation to be identified by its witness record (the mutation_hash +and attestation_hash pinpoint exactly which operation caused the violation). + +--- + +## 4. Isolation Model + +### 4.1 Partition Isolation Guarantees + +RVM partitions are the unit of isolation. Each partition consists of: + +- One or more tasks sharing a capability namespace +- A set of regions (memory objects) accessible only through capabilities held by those tasks +- Queue endpoints for controlled inter-partition communication + +**Isolation guarantee**: A partition cannot access any memory, device, or kernel object for +which it does not hold a valid capability. This is enforced at two levels: + +1. **Software**: The capability table lookup in every syscall rejects invalid or stale handles +2. **Hardware**: MMU page tables enforce that each partition's regions are mapped only in that + partition's address space, with no overlapping physical pages between partitions + (except explicitly shared immutable regions) + +### 4.2 MMU-Enforced Memory Isolation (Bare Metal) + +On bare metal, RVM directly controls the AArch64 MMU. Each partition gets its own translation +tables loaded via `TTBR0_EL1` on context switch: + +```rust +/// Per-partition page table management. +/// Kernel mappings use TTBR1_EL1 (shared across all partitions). +/// Partition mappings use TTBR0_EL1 (swapped on context switch). +pub trait PartitionAddressSpace { + /// Create a new empty address space for a partition. + fn create() -> Result where Self: Sized; + + /// Map a region into this partition's address space. + /// Physical pages are allocated from the kernel's physical allocator. + /// Page table entries enforce the region's policy: + /// Immutable -> PTE_USER | PTE_RO | PTE_CACHEABLE + /// AppendOnly -> PTE_KERNEL_RW | PTE_CACHEABLE (user writes via syscall) + /// Slab -> PTE_KERNEL_RW | PTE_CACHEABLE (user writes via syscall) + /// DeviceMmio -> PTE_USER | PTE_DEVICE | PTE_nG (non-global, per-partition) + fn map_region( + &mut self, + region: &RegionDescriptor, + phys_pages: &[PhysFrame], + ) -> Result; + + /// Unmap a region, invalidating all TLB entries for those pages. + fn unmap_region(&mut self, virt_addr: VirtAddr, size: usize) -> Result<(), KernelError>; + + /// Activate this address space (write to TTBR0_EL1 + TLBI). + unsafe fn activate(&self); +} +``` + +**Critical invariant**: The kernel NEVER maps the same physical page as writable in two +different partitions' address spaces simultaneously. Immutable regions may be shared read-only +(content-addressable deduplication is safe for immutable data). + +### 4.3 EL1/EL0 Separation + +- **EL1 (kernel mode)**: All kernel code, syscall handlers, interrupt handlers, scheduler, + capability table, proof verifier, witness log +- **EL0 (user mode)**: All RVF components, WASM runtimes, AgentDB, all application code + +Syscalls transition EL0 -> EL1 via the SVC instruction.

Device Security + +### 5.1 Lease-Based Device Access + +Devices are not permanently assigned to partitions.

On teardown: MMIO pages are unmapped, TLB is flushed, DMA channels are reset + +### 5.2 DMA Isolation + +DMA is the most dangerous hardware capability because DMA engines can read/write arbitrary +physical memory. RVM uses a layered defense: + +#### 5.2.1 With IOMMU (Preferred) + +On platforms with an IOMMU (ARM SMMU, Intel VT-d), the kernel programs the IOMMU's page +tables to restrict each device's DMA to only the physical pages belonging to the leaseholder's +regions: + +```rust +/// IOMMU-based DMA isolation. +pub trait IommuController { + /// Create a DMA mapping for a device, restricting it to the given physical pages. + /// The device can only DMA to/from these pages and no others. + fn map_device_dma( + &mut self, + device_id: DeviceId, + allowed_pages: &[PhysFrame], + direction: DmaDirection, + ) -> Result; + + /// Remove a DMA mapping, preventing the device from accessing those pages. + fn unmap_device_dma( + &mut self, + device_id: DeviceId, + mapping: DmaMapping, + ) -> Result<(), KernelError>; + + /// Invalidate all DMA mappings for a device (called on lease revocation). + fn invalidate_device(&mut self, device_id: DeviceId) -> Result<(), KernelError>; +} +``` + +#### 5.2.2 Without IOMMU (Bounce Buffers) + +On platforms without an IOMMU (early Raspberry Pi models), DMA isolation uses bounce buffers: + +1.

Agent-Specific Security + +### 7.1 WASM Sandbox Security Within Partitions + +RVF components execute as WASM modules within partitions.

The host provides a minimal syscall shim that maps WASM calls to + capability-gated RVM syscalls +3. **Resource limits**: Each WASM module has configured limits on memory size, stack depth, + execution fuel (instruction count), and table size +4. **No raw pointer access**: WASM's type system prevents arbitrary memory access. Pointers + are offsets into the linear memory, bounds-checked by the runtime + +```rust +/// WASM module resource limits. +pub struct WasmResourceLimits { + /// Maximum linear memory size in pages (64 KiB per page). + pub max_memory_pages: u32, + /// Maximum call stack depth. + pub max_stack_depth: u32, + /// Maximum execution fuel (instructions). 0 = unlimited. + pub max_fuel: u64, + /// Maximum number of table entries. + pub max_table_elements: u32, + /// Maximum number of globals. + pub max_globals: u32, +} + +/// The host interface exposed to WASM modules. +/// Every function here validates capabilities before performing the operation. +pub trait WasmHostInterface { + fn vector_get(&self, store: u32, key: u64) -> Result; + fn vector_put(&self, store: u32, key: u64, data: &[f32], proof: WasmProofRef) + -> Result<(), WasmTrap>; + fn queue_send(&self, queue: u32, msg: &[u8], priority: u8) -> Result<(), WasmTrap>; + fn queue_recv(&self, queue: u32, buf: &mut [u8], timeout_ms: u64) + -> Result; + fn log(&self, level: u8, message: &str); +} +``` + +### 7.2 Inter-Agent Communication Security + +Agents communicate exclusively through typed queues. Security properties of queue-based IPC: + +1. **Capability-gated**: Both sender and receiver must hold capabilities on the queue +2. **Typed messages**: Queue schema (WIT types) is validated at send time. Malformed + messages are rejected before reaching the receiver +3. **Zero-copy safety**: Zero-copy messages use descriptors pointing into immutable or + append-only regions. The kernel rejects descriptors pointing into slab regions + (TOCTOU mitigation -- SEC-004) +4. **No covert channels**: Queue capacity is bounded and visible. The kernel does not + leak information about queue occupancy to tasks that do not hold the queue's capability +5. **Message ordering**: Messages within a priority level are delivered in FIFO order. + Cross-priority ordering is by priority (higher first). This is deterministic and + does not leak information. + +### 7.3 Agent Identity and Authentication + +Agents do not have traditional identities (no UIDs, no usernames). Instead, agent identity +is established through the capability chain: + +1. **Boot-time identity**: An agent's initial capabilities are assigned by the RVF manifest. + The manifest is signed, so the identity is rooted in the code signer. +2. **Runtime identity**: An agent can prove its identity by demonstrating possession of + specific capabilities. A "who are you?" query is answered by "I hold capability X with + badge Y", and the verifier checks that badge against its expected value. +3. **Attestation identity**: An agent can emit an `attest_emit` record that binds its + capability badge to a witness entry. External verifiers can trace this back through the + witness chain to the boot attestation. + +```rust +/// Agent identity is derived from capability badges, not global names. +pub struct AgentIdentity { + /// The agent's task handle (ephemeral, changes across reboots). + pub task: TaskHandle, + /// Badge on the agent's primary capability (stable across reboots if + /// assigned by the RVF manifest). + pub primary_badge: u64, + /// RVF component ID that spawned this agent. + pub component_id: RvfComponentId, + /// Hash of the WASM module binary (code identity). + pub code_hash: [u8; 32], +} +``` + +### 7.4 Resource Limits and DoS Prevention + +Each partition and each WASM module within a partition has enforceable resource limits: + +```rust +/// Per-partition resource quota. +pub struct PartitionQuota { + /// Maximum physical memory (bytes). + pub max_memory_bytes: usize, + /// Maximum number of tasks. + pub max_tasks: u32, + /// Maximum number of capabilities. + pub max_capabilities: u32, + /// Maximum number of queue endpoints. + pub max_queues: u32, + /// Maximum number of region mappings. + pub max_regions: u32, + /// CPU time budget per scheduling epoch (microseconds). 0 = unlimited. + pub cpu_budget_us: u64, + /// Maximum interrupt rate across all devices (per second). + pub max_interrupt_rate_hz: u32, + /// Maximum witness log entries per epoch (prevents log flooding). + pub max_witness_entries_per_epoch: u32, +} + +/// Enforcement mechanism. +pub trait QuotaEnforcer { + /// Check if an allocation would exceed the partition's quota. + fn check_allocation( + &self, + partition: PartitionHandle, + resource: ResourceKind, + amount: usize, + ) -> Result<(), KernelError>; + + /// Record a resource allocation against the quota. + fn record_allocation( + &mut self, + partition: PartitionHandle, + resource: ResourceKind, + amount: usize, + ) -> Result<(), KernelError>; + + /// Release a resource allocation. + fn release_allocation( + &mut self, + partition: PartitionHandle, + resource: ResourceKind, + amount: usize, + ); +} + +pub enum ResourceKind { + Memory, + Tasks, + Capabilities, + Queues, + Regions, + CpuTime, + WitnessEntries, +} +``` + +**DoS prevention mechanisms**: + +| Attack Vector | Defense | +|--------------|---------| +| Memory exhaustion | Per-partition memory quota, `region_map` returns `OutOfMemory` | +| CPU starvation | Per-partition CPU budget, preemptive scheduler with budget enforcement | +| Queue flooding | Bounded queue capacity, backpressure on `queue_send` | +| Interrupt storm | Per-device rate limiting, priority ceiling | +| Capability table exhaustion | Per-partition cap table limit (1024 max) | +| Witness log flooding | Per-partition witness entry budget per epoch | +| Fork bomb | `task_spawn` checks per-partition task count against quota | +| Proof spam | Proof cache limited to 64 entries, nonce tracker bounded | + +--- + +## 8.

Bare-Metal Rust OS/Hypervisor Projects + +### 1.1 RustyHermit (Hermit OS) + +**What it is:** A Rust-based lightweight unikernel targeting scalable and predictable runtime for high-performance and cloud computing. Originally a rewrite of HermitCore. + +**Boot model:** RustyHermit supports two deployment modes: (a) running inside a VM via the uhyve hypervisor (which itself requires KVM), and (b) running bare-metal side-by-side with Linux in a multi-kernel configuration. The uhyve path depends on KVM; the multi-kernel path allows bare-metal but assumes a Linux host for the other kernel. + +**Memory model:** Single address space unikernel model. The application and kernel share one address space with no process isolation boundary. Memory safety comes from Rust's ownership model rather than MMU page tables. + +**Scheduling:** Cooperative scheduling within the single unikernel image. No preemptive multitasking between isolated components. The scheduler is optimized for throughput rather than isolation. + +**RVM relevance:** RustyHermit demonstrates that a pure-Rust kernel can achieve competitive performance, but its unikernel design lacks the isolation model RVM requires. RVM's capability-gated multi-task model is fundamentally different. However, RustyHermit's approach to no_std Rust kernel bootstrapping and its minimal dependency chain are instructive for RVM's Phase B bare-metal port. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Unikernels trade isolation for performance. RVM takes the opposite stance -- isolation is non-negotiable, but it must be capability-based rather than process-based. + +### 1.2 Theseus OS + +**What it is:** A research OS written entirely in Rust exploring "intralingual design" -- closing the semantic gap between compiler and hardware by maximally leveraging language safety and affine types. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64 hardware (tested on Intel NUC, Thinkpad) and in QEMU. No dependency on Linux or KVM for operation. Uses a custom bootloader. + +**Memory model:** All code runs at Ring 0 in a single virtual address space, including user applications written in purely safe Rust. Protection comes from the Rust type system rather than hardware privilege levels. The OS can guarantee at compile time that a given application or kernel component cannot violate isolation between modules. + +**Scheduling:** Component-granularity scheduling where OS modules can be dynamically loaded and unloaded at runtime. State management is the central innovation -- Theseus minimizes the states one component holds for another, enabling live evolution of running system components. + +**RVM relevance:** Theseus's intralingual approach is the closest philosophical match to RVM. Both systems bet on Rust's type system as a primary isolation mechanism. However, Theseus runs everything at Ring 0, while RVM uses EL1/EL0 separation with hardware MMU enforcement as a defense-in-depth layer on top of type safety. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Language-level isolation can replace MMU-based isolation for trusted components, but hardware-enforced boundaries remain essential for untrusted WASM workloads. RVM's hybrid approach (type safety for kernel, MMU for user components) is well-positioned. + +### 1.3 RedLeaf + +**What it is:** An OS developed from scratch in Rust to explore the impact of language safety on OS organization. Published at OSDI 2020. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64. No Linux dependency. Custom bootloader with UEFI support. + +**Memory model:** Does not rely on hardware address spaces for isolation. Instead uses only type and memory safety of the Rust language. Introduces "language domains" as the unit of isolation -- a lightweight abstraction for information hiding and fault isolation. Domains can be dynamically loaded and cleanly terminated without affecting other domains. + +**Scheduling:** Domain-aware scheduling where the unit of execution is a domain rather than a process. Domains communicate through shared heaps with ownership transfer semantics that leverage Rust's ownership model for zero-copy IPC. + +**RVM relevance:** RedLeaf's domain model closely parallels RVM's capability-gated task model. Both systems achieve isolation without traditional process boundaries. RedLeaf's shared heap with ownership transfer is conceptually similar to RVM's queue-based IPC with zero-copy ring buffers. RedLeaf also achieves 10Gbps network driver performance matching DPDK, demonstrating that language-based isolation does not inherently sacrifice throughput. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Language domains with clean termination semantics map well to RVM's RVF component model. The ability to isolate and restart a crashed driver without system-wide impact is exactly what RVM needs for agent workloads. + +### 1.4 Tock OS + +**What it is:** A secure embedded OS for microcontrollers, written in Rust, designed for running multiple concurrent, mutually distrustful applications. + +**Boot model:** Runs on bare-metal Cortex-M and RISC-V microcontrollers. No OS dependency. Direct hardware boot. + +**Memory model:** Dual isolation strategy: +- **Capsules** (kernel components): Language-based isolation using safe Rust. Zero overhead. Capsules can only be written in safe Rust. +- **Processes** (applications): Hardware MPU isolation. The MPU limits which memory addresses a process can access; violations trap to the kernel. + +**Scheduling:** Priority-based preemptive scheduling with per-process grant regions for safe kernel-user memory sharing. Tock 2.2 (January 2025) achieved compilation on stable Rust for the first time. + +**RVM relevance:** Tock's dual isolation model (language for trusted, hardware for untrusted) is the same architectural pattern RVM employs. Tock's capsule model directly influenced RVM's approach to kernel extensions. The 2025 TickTock formal verification effort discovered five previously unknown MPU configuration bugs and two interrupt handling bugs that broke isolation -- a cautionary result for any system relying on MPU/MMU configuration correctness. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Formal verification of the MMU/MPU configuration code in ruvix-aarch64 should be a priority. The TickTock results demonstrate that even mature, well-tested isolation code can harbor subtle bugs. + +### 1.5 Hubris (Oxide Computer) + +**What it is:** A microkernel OS for deeply embedded systems, developed by Oxide Computer Company. Written entirely in Rust. Production-deployed in Oxide rack-mount server service controllers. + +**Boot model:** Bare-metal on ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers. No OS dependency. Static binary with all tasks compiled together. + +**Memory model:** Strictly static architecture. No dynamic memory allocation. No runtime task creation or destruction. The kernel is approximately 2000 lines of Rust. Memory regions are assigned at compile time via a build system configuration (TOML-based task descriptions). + +**Scheduling:** Strictly synchronous IPC model. Preemptive priority-based scheduling. Tasks that crash can be restarted without affecting the rest of the system. No driver code runs in privileged mode. + +**RVM relevance:** Hubris demonstrates that a production-quality Rust microkernel can be extremely small (~2000 lines) while providing real isolation. Its static, no-allocation design philosophy aligns with RVM's "fixed memory layout" constraint. Hubris's approach to compile-time task configuration is analogous to RVM's RVF manifest-driven resource declaration. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Static resource declaration at boot (from RVF manifest) is a proven pattern. Hubris's production track record at Oxide validates the Rust microkernel approach for real hardware. + +### 1.6 Redox OS + +**What it is:** A complete Unix-like microkernel OS written in Rust, targeting general-purpose desktop and server use. + +**Boot model:** Boots on bare-metal x86_64 hardware. Custom bootloader with UEFI support. The 2025-2026 roadmap includes ARM and RISC-V support. + +**Memory model:** Traditional microkernel with hardware address space isolation. Processes run in separate address spaces. The kernel handles memory management, scheduling, and IPC. Device drivers run in userspace. + +**Scheduling:** Standard microkernel scheduling with userspace servers. Recent 2025 improvements yielded 500-700% file I/O performance gains. Self-hosting is a key roadmap goal. + +**RVM relevance:** Redox proves that a full microkernel OS can be written in Rust and run on real hardware. Its "everything in Rust" approach validates the toolchain. However, Redox's Unix-like POSIX interface is exactly the abstraction mismatch that RVM is designed to avoid. Redox optimizes for human-process workloads; RVM optimizes for agent-vector-graph workloads. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Redox's experience with driver isolation in userspace and its bare-metal boot process are directly transferable. But RVM should not adopt POSIX semantics. + +### 1.7 Hyperlight (Microsoft) + +**What it is:** A micro-VM manager that creates ultra-lightweight VMs with no OS inside. Open-sourced in 2024-2025, now in the CNCF Sandbox. + +**Boot model:** Creates VMs using hardware hypervisor support (Hyper-V on Windows, KVM on Linux, mshv on Azure). The VMs themselves contain no operating system -- just a linear memory slice and a CPU. VM creation takes 1-2ms, with warm-start latency of 0.9ms. + +**Memory model:** Each micro-VM gets a flat linear memory region. No virtual devices, no filesystem, no OS. The Hyperlight Wasm guest compiles wasmtime as a no_std Rust module that runs directly inside the micro-VM. + +**Scheduling:** Host-managed. The micro-VMs are extremely short-lived function executions. No internal scheduler needed. + +**RVM relevance:** Hyperlight demonstrates the "WASM-in-a-VM-with-no-OS" pattern that is extremely relevant to RVM. The key insight is that wasmtime can be compiled as a no_std component and run without any operating system. RVM's approach of embedding a WASM runtime directly in the kernel aligns with this pattern, but RVM goes further by providing kernel-native vector/graph primitives that Hyperlight lacks. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** Wasmtime's no_std mode is production-viable. The Hyperlight architecture validates the "no OS needed for WASM execution" thesis. RVM should study Hyperlight's wasmtime-platform.h abstraction layer for the Phase B bare-metal WASM port. + +--- + +## 2. Capability-Based Systems + +### 2.1 seL4's Capability Model + +**Architecture:** seL4 is the gold standard for capability-based microkernels. It was the first OS kernel to receive a complete formal proof of functional correctness (8,700 lines of C verified from abstract specification down to binary). Every kernel resource is accessed through capabilities -- unforgeable tokens managed by the kernel. + +**Capability structure:** seL4 capabilities encode: an object pointer (which kernel object), access rights (what operations are permitted), and a badge (extra metadata for IPC demultiplexing). Capabilities are stored in CNodes (capability nodes), which are themselves accessed through capabilities, forming a recursive namespace. + +**Delegation and revocation:** Capabilities can be copied (with equal or lesser rights), moved between CNodes, and revoked. Revocation is recursive -- revoking a capability invalidates all capabilities derived from it. + +**Rust bindings:** The sel4-sys crate provides Rust bindings for seL4 system calls. Antmicro and Google developed a version designed for maintainability. The seL4 Microkit framework supports Rust as a first-class language. + +**RVM's adoption of seL4 concepts:** +- RVM's `ruvix-cap` crate implements seL4-style capabilities with `CapRights`, `CapHandle`, derivation trees, and epoch-based invalidation +- Maximum delegation depth of 8 (configurable) prevents unbounded chains +- Audit logging with depth-warning threshold at 4 +- The `GRANT_ONCE` right provides non-transitive delegation (not in seL4) +- Unlike seL4's C implementation, RVM's capability manager is `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` + +**Gap analysis:** seL4's formal verification is its strongest asset. RVM currently lacks formal proofs for its capability manager. The Tock/TickTock experience (five bugs found through verification) suggests formal verification of `ruvix-cap` should be prioritized. + +### 2.2 CHERI Hardware Capabilities + +**Architecture:** CHERI (Capability Hardware Enhanced RISC Instructions) extends processor ISAs with hardware-enforced capabilities. Rather than relying solely on page tables for memory protection, CHERI encodes bounds and permissions directly in pointer representations. Pointers become fat capabilities that carry their own access metadata. + +**ARM Morello:** Arm's Morello evaluation platform implemented CHERI extensions on an Armv8.2-A processor. Performance evaluation on 20 C/C++ applications showed overheads ranging from negligible to 1.65x, with the highest costs in pointer-intensive workloads. However, as of 2025, Arm has stepped back from active Morello development, pushing CHERI adoption toward smaller embedded processors. + +**Verified temporal safety:** A 2025 paper at CPP presented a formal CHERI C memory model for verified temporal safety, demonstrating that CHERI can enforce not just spatial safety (bounds) but also temporal safety (use-after-free prevention). + +**RVM relevance:** CHERI's capability-per-pointer model is more fine-grained than RVM's capability-per-object model. If future AArch64 processors include CHERI extensions, RVM could leverage them for sub-region protection within capability boundaries. In the near term, RVM achieves similar goals through Rust's ownership system (compile-time) and MMU page tables (runtime). + +**Key lesson for RVM:** CHERI demonstrates that hardware capabilities are feasible but face adoption challenges. RVM's software-capability approach (ruvix-cap) is the right near-term strategy, with CHERI as a future hardware acceleration path. The `ruvix-hal` HAL trait layer already allows for pluggable MMU implementations, which could be extended to CHERI capabilities. + +### 2.3 Barrelfish Multikernel + +**Architecture:** Barrelfish runs a separate small kernel ("CPU driver") on each core. Kernels share no memory. All inter-core communication is explicit message passing. The rationale: hardware cache coherence protocols are difficult to scale beyond ~80 cores, so Barrelfish makes communication explicit rather than relying on shared-memory illusions. + +**Capability model:** Barrelfish uses a capability system where the CPU driver maintains capabilities, executes syscalls on capabilities, and schedules dispatchers. Dispatchers are the unit of scheduling -- an application spanning multiple cores has a dispatcher per core, and dispatchers never migrate. + +**System knowledge base:** At boot, Barrelfish probes hardware to measure inter-core communication performance, stores results in a small database (SKB), and runs an optimizer to select communication patterns. + +**RVM relevance:** Barrelfish's per-core kernel model directly informs RVM's future Phase C (SMP) design. The `ruvix-smp` crate already provides CPU topology management, per-CPU state tracking, IPI messaging (Reschedule, TlbFlush, FunctionCall), and lock-free atomic state transitions -- all aligned with the multikernel philosophy. + +**Key lesson for RVM:** For multi-core RVM, the Barrelfish model suggests: (1) run a scheduler instance per core rather than a single shared scheduler, (2) use explicit message passing between per-core schedulers, (3) probe inter-core latency at boot and store in a performance database that the coherence-aware scheduler can consult. + +--- + +## 3. Coherence Protocols + +### 3.1 Hardware Cache Coherence: MOESI and MESIF + +**MESI (Modified, Exclusive, Shared, Invalid):** The baseline snooping protocol. Each cache line exists in one of four states. Write operations invalidate all other copies (write-invalidate). Simple but generates high bus traffic on writes to shared data. + +**MOESI (adds Owned):** AMD's extension. The Owned state allows a modified, shared line to serve reads directly from the owning cache rather than writing back to memory first. This reduces write-back traffic at the cost of more complex state transitions. + +**MESIF (adds Forward):** Intel's extension. The Forward state designates exactly one cache as the responder for shared-line requests, eliminating redundant responses when multiple caches hold the same shared line. Optimized for read-heavy sharing patterns. + +**Scalability limits:** All snooping protocols face fundamental scalability issues beyond ~32-64 cores because every cache must observe every bus transaction. This motivates the shift to directory-based protocols at higher core counts. + +### 3.2 Directory-Based Coherence + +**Architecture:** Instead of broadcasting on a bus, directory protocols maintain a centralized (or distributed) directory tracking which caches hold each line. Only the relevant caches receive invalidation messages. Traffic scales with the number of sharers rather than the number of cores. + +**Overhead:** Directory entries consume storage (bit-vector per cache line per core). For N cores with M cache lines, the directory requires O(N * M) bits. Various compression techniques (limited pointer directories, coarse directories) reduce this at the cost of precision. + +**Relevance to RVM:** Directory-based coherence is the hardware mechanism that enables many-core scaling. RVM's SMP design should account for NUMA effects and directory-based coherence latencies when making scheduling decisions. + +### 3.3 Software Coherence Protocols + +**Overview:** Software coherence replaces hardware snooping/directory mechanisms with explicit software-managed cache operations. The OS or runtime issues explicit cache flush/invalidate instructions at synchronization points. + +**Examples:** +- Linux's explicit DMA coherence management (`dma_map_single` with cache maintenance) +- Barrelfish's message-based coherence (no shared memory, explicit transfers) +- GPU compute models (explicit host-device memory transfers) + +**Trade-offs:** Software coherence eliminates hardware complexity but requires programmers (or compilers/runtimes) to correctly manage cache state. Errors lead to stale data or corruption. The benefit is full control over when coherence traffic occurs. + +### 3.4 Coherence Signals as Scheduling Inputs -- The RVM Innovation + +This is where RVM's design diverges from all existing systems. No existing OS uses coherence metrics as a scheduling signal. RVM's scheduler (ruvix-sched) computes priority as: + +``` +score = deadline_urgency + novelty_boost - risk_penalty +``` + +Where `risk_penalty` is derived from the pending coherence delta -- a measure of how much a task's execution would reduce global structural coherence. This is computed using spectral graph theory (Fiedler value, spectral gap, effective resistance) from the `ruvector-coherence` crate. + +**Why this matters:** Traditional schedulers optimize for latency, throughput, or fairness. RVM optimizes for structural consistency. A task that would introduce logical contradictions into the system's knowledge graph gets deprioritized. A task processing genuinely novel information gets boosted. This is the right scheduling objective for agent workloads where maintaining a coherent world model is more important than raw throughput. + +**No prior art exists** for coherence-driven scheduling in operating systems. The closest analogs are: +- Database transaction schedulers that consider serializability (but these gate on commit, not schedule) +- Network quality-of-service schedulers that consider flow coherence (but this is packet-level, not semantic) +- Game engine entity-component schedulers that consider data locality (but this is cache-coherence, not semantic coherence) + +--- + +## 4. Agent/Edge Computing Runtimes + +### 4.1 Wasmtime Bare-Metal Embedding + +**Current status:** Wasmtime can be compiled as a no_std Rust crate. The embedder must implement a platform abstraction layer (`wasmtime-platform.h`) specifying how to allocate virtual memory, handle signals, and manage threads. + +**Hyperlight precedent:** Microsoft's Hyperlight Wasm project compiles wasmtime into a no_std guest that runs inside micro-VMs with no operating system. This is the strongest proof-of-concept for wasmtime on bare metal. + +**Practical considerations:** +- Wasmtime's cranelift JIT compiler works in no_std mode but requires virtual memory for code generation +- The `signals-and-traps` feature can be disabled for platforms without virtual memory support +- Custom memory allocators must be provided via the platform abstraction + +**RVM integration path:** RVM's Phase B plan (weeks 35-36) specifies porting wasmtime or wasm-micro-runtime to bare metal. Given Hyperlight's success with no_std wasmtime, wasmtime is the recommended path. The `ruvix-hal` MMU trait can provide the virtual memory abstraction that wasmtime's platform layer requires. + +### 4.2 Lunatic (Erlang-Like WASM Runtime) + +**What it is:** A universal runtime for server-side applications inspired by Erlang. Actors are represented as WASM instances with per-actor sandboxing and runtime permissions. + +**Key features:** +- Preemptive scheduling of WASM processes via work-stealing async executor +- Per-process fine-grained resource access control (filesystem, memory, network) enforced at the syscall level +- Automatic transformation of blocking code into async operations +- Written in Rust using wasmtime and tokio, with custom stack switching + +**Agent workload alignment:** Lunatic's actor model closely matches agent workloads: +- Each agent is an isolated WASM instance (Lunatic process) +- Agents communicate through typed message passing +- A failing agent can be restarted without affecting others (supervision trees) +- Different agents can be written in different languages (polyglot via WASM) + +**RVM relevance:** Lunatic validates the "agents as lightweight WASM processes" model but runs on top of Linux (tokio for async I/O, wasmtime for WASM). RVM can adopt Lunatic's architectural patterns while eliminating the Linux dependency. Key patterns to adopt: +- Per-agent capability sets (RVM already has this via ruvix-cap) +- Supervision trees for agent fault recovery +- Work-stealing across cores (for Phase C SMP) + +### 4.3 How Agent Workloads Differ from Traditional VM Workloads + +| Dimension | Traditional VM/Container | Agent Workload | +|-----------|--------------------------|----------------| +| **Lifecycle** | Long-running process | Short-lived reasoning bursts + long idle | +| **State model** | Files and databases | Vectors, graphs, proof chains | +| **Communication** | TCP/Unix sockets | Typed semantic queues with coherence scores | +| **Isolation** | Address space separation | Capability-gated resource access | +| **Failure** | Kill and restart process | Isolate, checkpoint, replay from last coherent state | +| **Scheduling objective** | Fairness / throughput | Coherence preservation / novelty exploration | +| **Memory pattern** | Heap allocation / GC | Append-only regions + slab allocators | +| **Security model** | User/group permissions | Proof-gated mutations with attestation witnesses | + +### 4.4 What an Agent-Optimized Hypervisor Needs + +Based on the above analysis, an agent-optimized hypervisor requires: + +1. **Kernel-native vector/graph stores** -- Agents think in embeddings and knowledge graphs, not files. These must be first-class kernel objects, not userspace libraries serializing to disk. + +2. **Coherence-aware scheduling** -- The scheduler must understand that not all runnable tasks should run. A task that would decohere the world model should be delayed. + +3. **Proof-gated mutations** -- Every state change must carry a cryptographic witness. This enables checkpoint/replay, audit, and distributed attestation. + +4. **Zero-copy typed IPC** -- Agents exchange structured data (vectors, graph patches, proof tokens), not byte streams. The queue abstraction must be typed and schema-aware. + +5. **Sub-millisecond task spawn** -- Agent reasoning involves spawning many short-lived sub-tasks. Task creation must be cheaper than thread creation. + +6. **Capability delegation without kernel round-trip** -- Agents frequently delegate partial authority. This should be achievable through capability derivation in user space with kernel validation on use. + +7. **Deterministic replay** -- For debugging and audit, the kernel must support replaying a sequence of operations and reaching the same state. + +All seven of these requirements are already addressed by RVM's architecture (ADR-087). + +--- + +## 5. Graph-Partitioned Scheduling + +### 5.1 Min-Cut Based Task Placement + +**Theory:** Given a graph where nodes are tasks and edges represent communication volume, the minimum cut partitioning assigns tasks to processors to minimize inter-processor communication. The min-cut objective directly minimizes the scheduling overhead of cross-core data movement. + +**Algorithms:** +- Karger's randomized contraction: O(n^2 log n) for global min-cut +- Stoer-Wagner deterministic: O(nm + n^2 log n) for global min-cut +- KaHIP/METIS multilevel: Practical tools for balanced k-way partitioning + +**RVM's ruvector-mincut crate** implements subpolynomial dynamic min-cut with self-healing networks, including: +- Exact and (1+epsilon)-approximate algorithms +- j-Tree hierarchical decomposition for multi-level partitioning +- Canonical pseudo-deterministic min-cut (source-anchored, tree-packing, dynamic tiers) +- Agentic 256-core parallel backend +- SNN-based neural optimization (attractor, causal, morphogenetic, strange loop, time crystal) + +### 5.2 Spectral Partitioning for Workload Isolation + +**Theory:** Spectral partitioning uses the eigenvectors of the graph Laplacian to identify natural clusters. The Fiedler vector (eigenvector corresponding to the second-smallest eigenvalue) provides an optimal bisection -- the Cheeger bound guarantees that spectral bisection produces partitions with nearly optimal conductance. + +**RVM's ruvector-coherence spectral module** already implements: +- Fiedler value estimation via inverse iteration with CG solver +- Spectral gap ratio computation +- Effective resistance sampling +- Degree regularity scoring +- Composite Spectral Coherence Score (SCS) with incremental updates + +The SpectralTracker supports first-order perturbation updates (`delta_lambda ~ v^T * delta_L * v`) for incremental edge weight changes, avoiding full recomputation on every graph mutation. + +### 5.3 Dynamic Graph Rebalancing Under Load + +**Challenge:** Static partitioning fails when workload patterns change at runtime. Agents spawn, terminate, and change their communication patterns dynamically. + +**Approaches:** +- **Diffusion-based:** Migrate load from overloaded partitions to underloaded neighbors. O(diameter) convergence. Simple but can oscillate. +- **Repartitioning:** Periodically re-run the partitioner on the current communication graph. Expensive but globally optimal. +- **Incremental spectral:** Track the Fiedler vector incrementally (as ruvector-coherence does) and trigger repartitioning only when the spectral gap drops below a threshold. + +**RVM design implication:** The scheduler's partition manager (ruvix-sched/partition.rs) currently uses static round-robin partition scheduling with fixed time slices. The spectral coherence infrastructure from ruvector-coherence is already in the workspace (ruvix-sched depends on it optionally via the `coherence` feature flag). The path forward: + +1. Monitor the inter-task communication graph using queue message counters +2. Build a Laplacian from the communication weights +3. Compute the SCS incrementally using SpectralTracker +4. When SCS drops below threshold, trigger repartitioning using ruvector-mincut +5. Migrate tasks between partitions based on the new cut + +### 5.4 The ruvector-sparsifier Connection + +The ruvector-sparsifier crate provides dynamic spectral graph sparsification -- an "always-on compressed world model." For large task graphs, sparsification reduces the graph to O(n log n / epsilon^2) edges while preserving all cuts to within a (1+epsilon) factor. This means the scheduler can maintain an approximate communication graph at dramatically lower cost than the full graph, using it for partitioning decisions. + +--- + +## 6. Existing RuVector Crates Relevant to Hypervisor Design + +### 6.1 ruvector-mincut + +**Relevance: CRITICAL for graph-partitioned scheduling** + +- Provides the algorithmic backbone for task-to-partition assignment +- Subpolynomial dynamic min-cut means the scheduler can re-partition in response to workload changes without O(n^3) overhead +- The j-Tree hierarchical decomposition (feature `jtree`) maps directly to multi-level partition hierarchies +- The canonical min-cut feature provides deterministic partitioning -- the same communication graph always produces the same partition, enabling reproducible scheduling behavior +- SNN integration enables learned partitioning policies + +**Integration point:** Wire into ruvix-sched's PartitionManager to dynamically assign new tasks to optimal partitions based on their communication pattern with existing tasks. + +### 6.2 ruvector-sparsifier + +**Relevance: HIGH for scalable partition management** + +- Dynamic spectral sparsification keeps the scheduler's view of the task communication graph manageable as the number of tasks grows +- Static and dynamic modes: static for boot-time graph reduction, dynamic for runtime maintenance +- Preserves all cuts within (1+epsilon), so min-cut-based partition decisions remain valid on the sparsified graph +- SIMD and WASM feature flags for acceleration + +**Integration point:** Preprocess the inter-task communication graph through the sparsifier before feeding it to ruvector-mincut for partition computation. + +### 6.3 ruvector-solver + +**Relevance: HIGH for spectral computations** + +- Sublinear-time sparse linear system solver: O(log n) to O(sqrt(n)) for PageRank, Neumann series, forward/backward push, conjugate gradient +- Direct application: solving the graph Laplacian systems needed for Fiedler vector computation and effective resistance estimation +- The CG solver in ruvector-coherence/spectral.rs is a minimal inline implementation; ruvector-solver provides a more optimized, parallel version + +**Integration point:** Replace the inline CG solver in spectral.rs with ruvector-solver's optimized implementation for faster coherence score computation in the scheduler hot path. + +### 6.4 ruvector-cnn + +**Relevance: MODERATE for novelty detection** + +- CNN feature extraction for image embeddings with SIMD acceleration +- INT8 quantized inference for resource-constrained environments +- The scheduler's novelty tracker (ruvix-sched/novelty.rs) computes novelty as distance from a centroid in embedding space +- For vision-based agents, ruvector-cnn could provide the embedding that feeds into the novelty computation + +**Integration point:** In RVF component space (above the kernel), vision agents use ruvector-cnn for perception. The resulting embedding vectors feed into the kernel's novelty tracker through the `update_task_novelty` syscall. + +### 6.5 ruvector-coherence + +**Relevance: CRITICAL -- already integrated** + +- Provides the coherence measurement primitives that drive the scheduler's risk penalty +- Spectral module computes Fiedler value, spectral gap, effective resistance, degree regularity +- SpectralTracker supports incremental updates (first-order perturbation) +- HnswHealthMonitor provides health alerts when graph coherence degrades +- Already a workspace dependency of ruvix-sched (optional, behind `coherence` feature flag) + +**Integration point:** Already wired. The spectral coherence score feeds into `compute_risk_penalty()` in the priority module. + +### 6.6 ruvector-raft + +**Relevance: HIGH for distributed RVM clusters** + +- Raft consensus for distributed metadata coordination +- Relevant for Phase D (distributed RVM mesh, demo 5 in ADR-087) +- Provides leader election, log replication, and consistent state machine application +- Could coordinate partition assignments across a cluster of RVM nodes + +**Integration point:** Future use for distributed scheduling consensus in multi-node RVM deployments. + +### 6.7 Other Notable Crates + +| Crate | Relevance | Use | +|-------|-----------|-----| +| `ruvector-graph` | HIGH | Graph database for task communication topology | +| `ruvector-hyperbolic-hnsw` | MODERATE | Hierarchical embedding search for agent memory | +| `ruvector-delta-consensus` | HIGH | Delta-based consensus for distributed state | +| `ruvector-attention` | MODERATE | Attention mechanisms for priority computation | +| `sona` | MODERATE | Self-optimizing neural architecture for scheduler tuning | +| `ruvector-nervous-system` | LOW | Higher-level coordination (above kernel) | +| `thermorust` | LOW | Thermal monitoring for Raspberry Pi targets | +| `ruvector-verified` | HIGH | ProofGate, ProofEnvironment, attestation chain | + +--- + +## 7.

The entire ruvix-cap crate is `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` and is a good candidate. The ruvix-aarch64 crate contains inherent unsafe code (MMU manipulation) that would need different verification techniques (possibly refinement proofs as in seL4). + +2. **Coherence signal latency:** Computing spectral coherence scores involves linear algebra (CG solver, power iteration). Can this be fast enough for the scheduling hot path? The inline CG solver in spectral.rs uses 10-15 iterations; benchmarking against ruvector-solver's optimized version is needed. + +3. **WASM runtime selection:** Wasmtime's no_std support is proven (Hyperlight) but cranelift JIT requires virtual memory. For the initial Phase B port, should RVM use: (a) wasmtime with cranelift JIT (better performance, needs MMU), (b) wasmtime with winch baseline compiler (simpler, still needs MMU), or (c) wasm-micro-runtime (interpreter, no MMU needed, slower)? + +4. **Multi-core coherence architecture:** When Phase C introduces SMP, should the scheduler use: (a) a single shared scheduler with spinlock protection (simple, doesn't scale), (b) per-core schedulers with work-stealing (Lunatic model), or (c) per-core schedulers with message-passing (Barrelfish model)? The Barrelfish data suggests (c) for >8 cores. + +5. **Dynamic partition count:** The current PartitionManager uses a compile-time const generic `M` for maximum partitions. Should this be dynamic to support workloads with variable component counts? + +### 7.3 Recommended Next Steps + +1. **Immediate:** Wire `ruvector-mincut` into `ruvix-sched`'s PartitionManager for dynamic task-to-partition assignment based on communication graph analysis. + +2. **Phase B priority:** Study Hyperlight's wasmtime no_std integration for the bare-metal WASM runtime port. The `wasmtime-platform.h` abstraction maps cleanly to `ruvix-hal` traits. + +3. **Verification:** Begin formal verification of `ruvix-cap` using Kani (Rust model checker) or Creusot. The `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` constraint makes this tractable. + +4. **Benchmarking:** Measure spectral coherence computation latency in the scheduling hot path. If too slow, implement a fast-path approximation that falls back to full computation periodically (the SpectralTracker already supports this with `refresh_threshold`). + +5. **Phase C design:** Adopt Barrelfish's per-core kernel model for SMP. The `ruvix-smp` crate's topology and IPI infrastructure is already aligned with this approach. + +--- + +## 8.
