Validation and reliability¶
Host tests, QEMU gates, physical-hardware evidence, invariants, fault containment, stability auditing and reproducibility.
Scope¶
This volume defines the terminology and relationships required before implementation detail. General concepts remain separate from ChrisOS-specific decisions; when a chapter crosses into implementation, its source revision and relevant files are declared in frontmatter.
Core chapters¶
- This volume expands through subsystem pages and the source atlas as the implementation evolves.
Reading rule¶
Lower-layer details need not be memorized, but terms used by higher layers are defined before their first technical use. Diagrams show flow and responsibility; tables record contracts, layouts and states.
