The --deferred-undecodable mode registers shaders through a Vulkan
device but, unlike --deferred, did not check for one first. On the
Windows CI runner, which has no Vulkan driver, vkCreateInstance returns
VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER and the test fails instead of skipping, so
the windows job on main has failed since e5b32bb4. It now returns
VulkanTestSkipped like the other modes.
WindowsPeWriter stored every PE section with SizeOfRawData equal to its
virtual size, so the zero-filled tail of a PT_LOAD segment (p_memsz above
p_filesz, the .bss) was written to the executable byte for byte. A segment
with 256 MiB of .bss produced a 269 MB .exe, while the Linux output of the
same image is under 5 KB.
Each section is now stored up to its last non-zero byte, aligned to the file
alignment, and VirtualSize keeps the full size. The PE loader zero-fills the
part of a section beyond SizeOfRawData (Microsoft PE format, section table:
SizeOfRawData). A section with no non-zero byte gets no raw data and a zero
PointerToRawData.
windows_bss relinks an image with 64 MiB of .bss, checks the section table
and the mapped image, and on Windows runs the executable, which reads the
last word of the .bss.
On Windows libc exports __cxa_init_primary_exception, std::uncaught_exception
and std::uncaught_exceptions only as _nid_postfix symbols (GCC_GLOBAL_ALIAS
is empty there), so host modules bind libstdc++-6.dll's versions:
- std::make_exception_ptr, which std::promise's destructor uses for
broken_promise, allocated the exception with libc and initialized it with
libstdc++'s __cxa_init_primary_exception, whose header layout differs.
A test that makes one and rethrows it dies with an access violation.
- std::uncaught_exceptions read libstdc++'s thread state, which libc's
throws never touch, so it returned 0 while an exception unwound. The
AGC driver's deferred-label guard relies on it to tell a failed record
from a finished one.
The three are now exported natively, like __cxa_throw and the rest.
__cxa_init_primary_exception also sets the reference count to 0, as the
Itanium ABI does: the exception_ptr created next takes the only
reference, so a made exception is destroyed once instead of leaking.
On Windows std::_Exit ends in ExitProcess, which still runs every module's
DLL_PROCESS_DETACH and TLS callbacks after the other threads are gone. A
static destructor that joins a worker then waits forever: a title that calls
_Exit while libSceVideoOut's flip queue runs (ps5-opengl's retirement
fail-stop) stays alive in FlipQueue's destructor. _Exit and libkernel's _exit
now terminate the process with TerminateProcess, as _exit ends a POSIX
process: no atexit handlers, stream flushes or module destructors.
waitpid now sits between exit and _exit, and its TechnicalDebt entry follows the packed horizontal gathers entry, so the open system and getuid pull requests and the thread cancellation test pull request no longer touch the same lines.
Unknown options are now checked for every pid, with 0x80 and 0x80000040 added, and so are valid combinations such as WNOHANG | WUNTRACED. Each call is repeated with a null status. The TechnicalDebt entry cites kern_wait, which adds WEXITED and WTRAPPED, and lists pdfork.
waitpid returns -1 with ECHILD, or EINVAL for an option FreeBSD does not know, and leaves the status unwritten: AnyPS5 runs the title as one process and exports nothing that creates a child. VLC PPSA85300 stops on main at this import.
FillClearColor refused half and B10G11R11 patterns with a denormal code,
since an implementation may flush them in a clear, so such fills over a
resident image took the CPU path: PPSA01325 fast-clears its 3840x2160
R16G16_SFLOAT target 0x515390000 with a denormal half every frame, a
33 MiB guest write and re-upload (about 85 ms).
ClearKeepsDenormals probes the device once per format: a 1x1 image
cleared with denormal codes (half 0x0001, 0x83ff, 0x0200, 0x8001;
11/10-bit 0x001) and read back. When the bits survive, FillClear takes
the refused pattern again with SmallFloat decoding denormals exactly.
NaNs, float32 denormals and the SNORM minimum stay refused.
agc_driver_recorder_tests clears an R16G16_SFLOAT resident image with a
normal, a denormal and a NaN pattern: the denormal is cleared exactly
when the probe says the device keeps it, and the NaN is refused.

A shader reported in review binds 40 sampled images of one class, more
than 32. The cap only bounds the compact heap arrays, so no layout or
ABI version changes. The test covers 40 images and a full class through
the constant.

A compute program of PPSA26344 binds 29 sampled images of one class, more
than the 16 a typed sampled heap held, and failed with "shader image heap
capacity exceeded". Heap arrays are declared with their compact length,
so shaders that fitted before keep their layout and SPIR-V.
Bindless image tables keep 16 slots: they were sized by the same constant,
and each slot costs an image entry.
