A title maps physical pages at a new address while the GPU still reads them
through the old one. Every view of such a page gets the same contents and
loses write access while the page is shared; the last view left gets its
protection back. A CPU write to a shared page faults, and views that differ
when one is unmapped (a GPU write through an import) throw, instead of the
views silently diverging.

libkernel:
- direct memory keeps its contents per physical page across unmap and
remap; a page mapped at two live addresses at once throws
- sceKernelDirectMemoryQuery answers from tracked allocations
- SCE protections read back as set, GPU and AMPR bits included
- APR prefix path resolve, file size and stat by id, positional reads,
fsync/pread/pwrite; directories open as descriptors on Windows
- sceKernelCheckReachability, getpeername, shutdown
- Dinkumware C11 threads (_Mtx_*, _Cnd_*, _Thrd_*) in the title libc
layout; any pthread stack size, rounded at thread creation
libc:
- unaddressed guest mappings go to the system-managed area from
0x2_0000_0000, leaving the application area to fixed mappings
- the process starts in /app0
- guest sscanf on Windows; a null %s prints as (null) as on FreeBSD
- localeconv, _FNan, _FDtest, _FExp, __udivti3, wcsncpy_s, aligned
operator new, _Throw_Cpp_error
Tests: direct memory following physical pages, guest formatting.

Renames template parameters to the TKey-style the conventions doc
requires (TValue, TFunction), removes the extern "C" close comment
(not one of the two allowed structural exceptions), and replaces
the magic error/flag numbers left after the previous comment
cleanup with the existing SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_* constants and a named
RTLD_NOW constant so the code documents itself.
Comments in this codebase may only mark technical debt (per
docs/dev/CONVENTIONS.md), plus the #endif and namespace-close
structural exceptions. Removes the descriptive comments added on
this branch across PreciseWait.hpp, FormattingWide.cpp, the
direct-memory pool query/free-run plumbing, and the module loader
wiring, keeping the two allowed structural markers intact.
- DirectMemory: track each allocated block's type and extent in the
physical pool (DirectMemoryBlock), splitting the record on a partial
free, and expose DirectMemoryQueryBlock/DirectMemoryFreeRun. Wires
sceKernelDirectMemoryQuery to answer with the real allocated range
and type instead of a hardcoded one-page/type-3 guess, and
sceKernelAvailableDirectMemorySize to report the actual free run
instead of the whole remaining aperture. DirectMemory.cpp's mapping
path already tolerates MAP_FIXED overlap into a registered range and
already has honor-then-fallback address-hint handling and an
ignored-flags mask, so it is unchanged here.
- MemoryPoolExport: implement sceKernelMemoryPoolBatch/Commit/Decommit/
Expand/GetBlockStats/Reserve (previously all dead stubs) using the
existing DoMprotect/DirectMemoryAlloc/DoReserveVirtual primitives and
a small pool-state block counter.
- Module: wire sceKernelDlsym/sceKernelLoadStartModule/
sceKernelStopUnloadModule to the existing host-module loader
(dlopen_nid_postfix/dlsym_nid_postfix/dlclose_nid_postfix), replacing
dead stubs. sceKernelGetModuleInfoForUnwind/FromAddr are unrelated
and left as-is.
Bring in the resolved#25 branch, which already carries upstream main
including boykopovar/AnyPS5#10, and re-apply the KernelErrors.hpp
refactor onto the rewritten files:
- Equeue: drop the local EQUEUE_ERROR_* constants and use the shared
SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_* names.
- Pthread Attr/Thread: drop local error constants and include
KernelErrors.hpp.
- Pthread Cond/Mutex: take upstream; they no longer define local
SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_* constants.
- Semaphore: drop KERNEL_SEMA_ERROR_* in favour of KernelErrors.hpp.

Resolve the conflict with boykopovar/AnyPS5#10 in Pthread/src/Mutex.cpp
by taking upstream: its rewrite already returns EDEADLK as 0x8002000B.
The equeue and direct memory error code fixes are unaffected.

The host-region fallback added with the Demon's Souls work calls VirtualQuery and
includes windows.h unconditionally, so libkernel no longer compiles on Linux.
On Linux, read the containing mapping and its permissions from /proc/self/maps.

Brings in main up to 9958d26 (homebrew runtime, POSIX wrappers in
libkernel, sce_module guest modules and --skip-sce-module, the --to-intel
general pipeline, libSceRandom, libSceRtc, libScePosixForWebKit,
libRenoirCore, test wiring).
Resolutions where both sides implemented the same thing:
- libkernel pthread: main's structure (lazy static initialisation,
destroyed markers, MutexOperations/CondOperations, mutex protocol and
condattr clock) with this branch's TimedWait deadlines and condition
(precise timed lock/wait on Windows), wait tracing, the adaptive mutex
type 4, POSIX default ERRORCHECK mutexes, EDEADLK/EPERM results instead
of throws, and condition clocks honoured for absolute timeouts.
- libc locale: the guest Dinkumware ABI (_Locimp, facet vtables, short
ctype/case tables, locale ids, stream storage) is kept because guest code
inlines those layouts; main's C character functions are kept on top.
- libc stdio/strings/math: main's stream functions (guest FILE status
sync), strerror/perror, remove, formatting, string and math exports win
over this branch's duplicates.
- libc paths: main's working directory with this branch's path aliases
resolved on the normalised guest path.
- libkernel file: this branch's sceKernel* results as SCE errors, main's
POSIX wrappers and both fstat helpers.
- relinker: this branch's stub lowering keeps its trampolines through the
main executable path; guest modules refuse lowerings that need stubs.
- AGC driver: main's rendering wait is executed by this branch's workers.

Kernel error codes were redeclared per file under three prefixes
(SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_, EQUEUE_ERROR_, KERNEL_SEMA_ERROR_), which let wrong
values go unnoticed. Define them once as 0x80020000 | errno for errno
1..94 and use the SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_ names everywhere. Values are unchanged.

SCE kernel errors are 0x80020000 plus the FreeBSD errno. The equeue and
direct memory constants used an unrelated 0x8001xxxx range with mismatched
errno values (e.g. ETIMEDOUT was 0x80010023), so a guest checking
sceKernelWaitEqueue for SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_ETIMEDOUT saw an unexpected error.
SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_EDEADLK in Mutex.cpp held the EAGAIN value.

Guest mprotect calls on the executable's own segments failed with
"guest protection or unmap range is not registered" because only the
Windows build registered the main image. Register the PT_LOAD segments of
the main executable page by page, merging the protections of segments that
share a page.

Retail titles pass protections such as 0xC2 (CPU read/write plus the
0x40 and 0x80 device access bits). The device bits do not affect CPU
access and were rejected as unsupported.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
SCE_KERNEL_PROT_CPU_RW (0x02) and CPU_EXEC (0x04) include read access,
but were translated to write-only and execute-only host pages. GPU read
and write bits also need host access because the emulated GPU reads and
writes guest memory from the CPU. Write-only mappings made the AGC driver
reject guest data segments as unreadable.

- libc: reserve guest memory in one arena below the PS5 map limit with
MEM_WRITE_WATCH (GuestArena) and a caching guest heap; the allocation
registry gains a generation counter, an invalidator callback for the
driver's page cache and a pin waiter for leased ranges. This replaces
the fault-based GuestMemoryTracking/GuestMemoryBacking layer, whose
files are removed.
- libkernel: mmap/mprotect/munmap on the arena, flexible memory budget,
real sceKernelVirtualQuery; POSIX pthread layer, rwlocks, timed locks,
TSD, event flags; 0.5 ms scheduler tick and high-resolution sleeps;
TSC/clock/time functions; file APIs return SCE errno codes; the APR
file-streaming API.
- libc: vectored crash reporter with backtraces for fatal exceptions,
SIGABRT, UCRT invalid parameters and process exit; SSE4a EXTRQ/INSERTQ
emulation for Intel hosts; %ls/%lc/%S/%C with the guest's 16-bit
wchar_t; hand-written setjmp/longjmp for the guest jmp_buf; a path
alias table for short save-data mount points; more string, stdio and
math exports.
