Splits the ARM64 build into two tracks per docs/arm64-architecture.md:
Generic ARM64 (mainline kernel.org, UEFI, virtio, GRUB):
- New build/scripts/build-kernel-arm64.sh builds mainline LTS (6.12.x by default)
from arm64 defconfig + shared container fragment + arm64-virt enables
(VIRTIO_*, EFI_STUB, NVMe). Output: build/cache/kernel-arm64-generic/.
- New Makefile targets: kernel-arm64, rootfs-arm64 (now consumes the mainline
kernel modules via TARGET_VARIANT=generic).
- versions.env: pin MAINLINE_KERNEL_VERSION=6.12.10, declare cdn.kernel.org URL
and SHA256 placeholder.
Raspberry Pi (raspberrypi/linux fork, custom DTBs, autoboot.txt):
- build-kernel-arm64.sh (RPi-flavoured) renamed to build-kernel-rpi.sh; cache
dir renamed from custom-kernel-arm64 to custom-kernel-rpi.
- New Makefile targets: kernel-rpi, rootfs-arm64-rpi (uses TARGET_VARIANT=rpi).
- rpi-image now depends on rootfs-arm64-rpi + kernel-rpi instead of the generic
rootfs-arm64.
- create-rpi-image.sh + inject-kubesolo.sh updated to reference the new cache
path. inject-kubesolo.sh now takes a TARGET_VARIANT env var (rpi|generic) to
select which ARM64 kernel modules to consume.
Shared substrate:
- rpi-kernel-config.fragment renamed to kernel-container.fragment. The contents
were never RPi-specific (cgroup, namespaces, AppArmor, netfilter) — just
misnamed. Extended with extra subsystem disables (KVM, WLAN, CFG80211,
INFINIBAND, PCMCIA, HAMRADIO, ISDN, ATM, INPUT_JOYSTICK, INPUT_TABLET, FPGA)
and CONFIG_LSM=lockdown,yama,apparmor.
- build-kernel.sh (x86) refactored to apply the shared fragment via a generic
apply_fragment function (two-pass for the TC stock config security dance),
killing ~50 lines of inline config duplication.
Note: rename detection shows build-kernel-arm64.sh as 'modified' because the
new file at that path is the mainline build, while the old RPi-flavoured
content lives in build-kernel-rpi.sh (which appears as a new file). The git
log for build-kernel-rpi.sh is empty; the RPi history is preserved at the
original path until this commit.
No actual kernel build runs in this commit — that's Phase 3 work.

- fetch-components.sh: download ARM64 KubeSolo binary (kubesolo-arm64)
- inject-kubesolo.sh: use arch-specific binaries for KubeSolo, cloud-init,
and update agent; detect KVER from custom kernel when rootfs has none;
cross-arch module resolution via find fallback when modprobe fails
- create-rpi-image.sh: kpartx support for Docker container builds
- Makefile: rootfs-arm64 depends on build-cross, includes pack-initramfs

Security hardening: bind kubeconfig server to localhost, mount hardening
(noexec/nosuid/nodev on tmpfs), sysctl network hardening, kernel module
loading lock after boot, SHA256 checksum verification for downloads,
kernel AppArmor + Audit support, complain-mode AppArmor profiles for
containerd and kubelet, and security integration test.
ARM64 Raspberry Pi support: piCore64 base extraction, RPi kernel build
from raspberrypi/linux fork, RPi firmware fetch, SD card image with 4-
partition GPT and tryboot A/B mechanism, BootEnv Go interface abstracting
GRUB vs RPi boot environments, architecture-aware build scripts, QEMU
aarch64 dev VM and boot test.

Implement atomic OS updates via A/B partition scheme with automatic
rollback. GRUB bootloader manages slot selection with a 3-attempt
boot counter that auto-rolls back on repeated health check failures.
GRUB boot config:
- A/B slot selection with boot_counter/boot_success env vars
- Automatic rollback when counter reaches 0 (3 failed boots)
- Debug, emergency shell, and manual slot-switch menu entries
Disk image (refactored):
- 4-partition GPT layout: EFI + System A + System B + Data
- GRUB EFI/BIOS installation with graceful fallbacks
- Both system partitions populated during image creation
Update agent (Go, zero external deps):
- pkg/grubenv: read/write GRUB env vars (grub-editenv + manual fallback)
- pkg/partition: find/mount/write system partitions by label
- pkg/image: HTTP download with SHA256 verification
- pkg/health: post-boot checks (containerd, API server, node Ready)
- 6 CLI commands: check, apply, activate, rollback, healthcheck, status
- 37 unit tests across all 4 packages
Deployment:
- K8s CronJob for automatic update checks (every 6 hours)
- ConfigMap for update server URL
- Health check Job for post-boot verification
Build pipeline:
- build-update-agent.sh compiles static Linux binary (~5.9 MB)
- inject-kubesolo.sh includes update agent in initramfs
- Makefile: build-update-agent, test-update-agent, test-update targets

Implement a lightweight cloud-init system for first-boot configuration:
- Go parser for YAML config (hostname, network, KubeSolo settings)
- Static/DHCP network modes with DNS override
- KubeSolo extra flags and API server SAN configuration
- Portainer Edge Agent and air-gapped deployment support
- New init stage 45-cloud-init.sh runs before network/hostname stages
- Stages 50/60 skip gracefully when cloud-init has already applied
- Build script compiles static Linux/amd64 binary (~2.7 MB)
- 17 unit tests covering parsing, validation, and example files
- Full documentation at docs/cloud-init.md
