sceKernelGetModuleInfoFromAddr found the size of the image's .eh_frame
on every call by walking all of its CIE and FDE records, checking each
against every PT_LOAD header. The guest libc's unwinder calls it for
each frame it unwinds, so a title that unwinds often walked its whole
.eh_frame hundreds of times per second.
The tables read from a .eh_frame_hdr are now kept per header address
and reused while the image stays loaded. The cache is dropped whenever
dl_iterate_phdr reports that an object was unloaded (dlpi_subs), so an
address reused by another image is read again.
guest_module_info queries a module twice and expects the same tables,
then unloads it, loads it again and expects tables of the same size at
the same offset in the new image.
PPSA16827 (Harmony's Odyssey), title screen, over 500 calls per second
counted under gdb, which slows the title: the process used 9269 CPU
samples per 10 s, 53.7% of them in this walk, and 3306 with this change,
3.2% in the lookup. The title still runs at 27 FPS; its frame rate is
limited elsewhere.
Thread stacks are host-private memory; the call threw instead of setting the native protection.

munmap and sceKernelMunmap over a range in which no page is mapped
failed: munmap returned EINVAL and sceKernelMunmap let the registry's
exception escape. Both now return 0. The console returns 0 for
sceKernelMunmap of a range it just unmapped and of a never-mapped
address, and EINVAL only for a zero length, as measured by prosper's
console oracle (kernelx.golden.tsv, kx_fmem_unmap_again,
kx_fmem_munmap_unmapped).
The other half of #3196, a range with an unmapped page in the middle, is

scePthreadRwlockUnlock called unlock_shared on the host mutex whenever the

EPERM like FreeBSD libthr when the caller does not own the write lock and no
read lock is held.
Dying Light 2 (PPSA02262) imports sceKernelAioSetParam (9WK-vhNXimw) from

`-q-vbO859Tw`, `GTfJ64qFCPw`, `vwtVpHQKelI` (no known names),

sceKernelAvailableFlexibleMemorySize and the flexible maps counted only
explicit flexible mappings, so the full 448 MiB was reported while the
title's executable and modules were loaded. A title that derives its code
and data size from the budget minus the available size got an unsigned
underflow.
The segments of the main executable and of every .guest.prx module that
the title's ELF gives permissions now count, rounded to 16 KiB pages, as
shadPS4 maps every non-system module segment as flexible memory. The
relinker's own blocks and the host system libraries do not count. The
charge ends when a module is unloaded.

FreeBSD removes or renames a file that is still open; the descriptor stays usable. _wopen opens without FILE_SHARE_DELETE, so sceKernelUnlink returned EACCES and rename failed while the guest held a descriptor. sceKernelOpen now opens through CreateFileW with delete sharing and keeps the flag, mode and error mapping of _wopen.

The AMM ranges were reserved at the last 64 GiB of the guest arena and
the reservation threw when that window was not free. On Windows the
stacks of the threads that exist before the arena is reserved (the main
thread and the loader's workers) are placed at random addresses and are
left in the arena as host regions; when one fell in the last 64 GiB, the
first AMM use threw "fixed guest mapping ... overlaps a host region in
the guest arena". Reserve the highest free 64 GiB window instead: the
last 64 GiB when it is free, and the window just below an occupied part
of it otherwise.
SceErrorFromErrno in the libkernel file functions passed host errno
values 1-34 through and turned every other value into EIO. Linux numbers
EAGAIN 11, which is FreeBSD's EDEADLK, so a read from an empty
non-blocking pipe returned SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_EDEADLK, and ENAMETOOLONG,
ELOOP, ENOTEMPTY, EDQUOT and EOVERFLOW, whose host values differ from
FreeBSD's, all became EIO.
Map those host values to the guest's FreeBSD numbers, as
SceIoErrorFromErrno in Open.cpp already does for EAGAIN, EDEADLK,
EDQUOT and EOVERFLOW. The guest constants the callers pass are all at
most 34 and never 11, or GUEST_ENOTEMPTY, so they are unchanged.

PS5MC (PPSA99420) stops at start-up on sendfile. It follows FreeBSD 11:
headers, the file range and trailers go to a connected stream socket, the
file offset does not move, a non-blocking socket fails with EAGAIN after
a partial send, and *sbytes reports what was sent. The checks and the
point where *sbytes is written follow kern_sendfile.c.
FreeBSD's fsync and fdatasync succeed on a descriptor opened read-only and on a directory. _commit needs write access, so both returned EBADF there. A read-only descriptor is now flushed through a write handle from ReOpenFile and a directory through a handle opened for it, as sceKernelSync already does.
lseek on a non-directory descriptor no longer takes the directory table lock when no directory is open, and a listing is read under the descriptor's own lock. SEEK_CUR with offset 0 only reports the position, and an overflowing SEEK_CUR offset reports EOVERFLOW.
inet_pton and inet_ntop no longer call the host resolver library, whose
accepted forms and output differ from the guest's (leading zeros,
zone ids, IPv4-embedded printing).

A user event added with sceKernelAddUserEvent stays triggered until it is

queued completions of one event are still delivered in order.

XPSemu (PPSA97358) stops next at sigsetjmp (aRo9AhFUXcM) from libkernel,
per the body of #3323 "feat(libkernel): implement cpuset_setaffinity for
the calling thread or process": "XPSemu: with this PR, the next stop is
`sigsetjmp` (`aRo9AhFUXcM`)". RetroArch and PS5MC list it under libkernel
in the absent-import tables of #1578; aerolib names aRo9AhFUXcM sigsetjmp.
sigsetjmp is FreeBSD's amd64 sigsetjmp (lib/libc/amd64/gen/sigsetjmp.S,
release/11.4.0 8c639945), the counterpart of the merged siglongjmp (#2935)
and its sigjmp_buf layout (sys/x86/include/setjmp.h, _JBLEN 12): it stores
savemask at offset 88 and, when it is nonzero, saves the current mask at 72
through _sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, oset); then it records the return
address, rbx, rsp, rbp, r12-r15 and the x87 control word, and returns 0.
guest_signal_sets now jumps through the export instead of its copy of
FreeBSD's sigsetjmp, and checks that savemask 0 leaves the mask slot
untouched, a nonzero savemask records the current mask and its own value,
and the callee-saved registers come back after siglongjmp.

ioctl, so it forwards to ioctl.
Dungeons (PPSA16064) calls select on descriptor 0 and stopped with
"select on descriptor 0 (not a libSceNet socket) not implemented".
Descriptor 0 is now never readable and descriptors 1 and 2 are always

TechnicalDebt next to the termios entry for the same descriptors.

The abort only said "select on descriptors that are not libSceNet

select passed every descriptor it was given to the libSceNet socket poller

/dev/urandom descriptor (Dungeons, PPSA16064, aborts right after opening
it) stopped with "select on descriptors that are not libSceNet sockets".
On FreeBSD the random device is always readable and writable, so these
descriptors are now answered without the poller, and a ready one makes
the socket poll return at once.

FreeBSD fchdir(2) changes the working directory to the directory referenced by a descriptor. The guest imports fchdir from libkernel_sys (PPSA99764, issue #1578) and the module did not export it.
The descriptor's directory is resolved from the path recorded when the directory was opened on Windows, and from the /proc/self/fd link target on Linux. The guest working directory is then set through the libc routine shared with chdir. A descriptor that is not open returns EBADF and one that is not a directory returns ENOTDIR.

PSXS5, SwanStationPS5 and Nuvio stop at start-up on setcontext on main,
and EVO Player and ProsperoStore do on Windows. The three are imported
by the statically linked OpenSSL's ASYNC code.
The three use FreeBSD 11's amd64 ucontext_t (mcontext at 0x10, mc_len
800, uc_link at 0x330, 0x370 bytes), which the titles are built
against: EVO Player's ASYNC_is_capable captures into a 0x370-byte stack
buffer, and async_fibre_makecontext sets uc_link at 0x330 and uc_stack
at 0x338. getcontext saves every register at its call in assembly and
stores the context as FreeBSD's sys_getcontext does: rax and rdx as 0,
the carry flag clear, the FXSAVE image and the signal mask, and nothing
from uc_link on. setcontext checks mc_len and mc_flags as set_mcontext
does, installs the signal mask, masks MXCSR with the host's MXCSR_MASK
and returns through iretq, so every general register and the flags are
restored and nothing is written below the target stack pointer.
makecontext follows FreeBSD 11's amd64 libc.
Windows checks guard-page growth and exception unwinding against the
stack bounds in the TEB. setcontext and longjmp now set them to the
stack they switch to, which makecontext registers and pins writable as
libSceFiber does for fiber stacks. OpenSSL enters a context with
setcontext and then switches with _setjmp and _longjmp.
Titles that import it now load; calling it throws like the other
coredump queries, since host crashes are not turned into guest dumps.

Two defects found in review of the Linux delivery:
A raise right after scePthreadCreate reached the new thread before
RunThread set currentThread, so scePthreadSelf() in the handler adopted
a second handle, and could deadlock on glibc's thread lock when the
signal interrupted pthread_getattr_np. The creator now blocks all
signals around the std::thread construction, so the child starts with
them blocked, and RunThread restores the creator's mask once the thread
is registered, as libthr does. A raise in that window stays pending and
is delivered just before the entry runs.
A handler that set reserved MXCSR bits made rt_sigreturn fail with
SIGSEGV. The MXCSR the handler leaves is now masked with the frame's
MXCSR_MASK (0xffbf when it reads 0), as FreeBSD's fpusetregs does, on
both platforms; Windows also keeps CONTEXT.MxCsr equal to
FltSave.MxCsr.
guest_raise_exception raises right after each of 50 thread creations and
checks scePthreadSelf() in the handler, and its context round trip sets
a reserved MXCSR bit and FZ and checks that only FZ is kept.

sceKernelRaiseException threw on Linux, so a title whose garbage
collector stops threads with it (Unity's PS5Util raises SIGUSR1 on each
thread and reads mc_rsp from the handler's context) could not run there.
The raise now sends the host SIGUSR1 to the target thread with
pthread_kill. The host handler, installed on first use with SA_SIGINFO
and SA_RESTART, builds the FreeBSD-layout ucontext from the interrupted
registers and the FXSAVE area, calls the guest handler on the target's
own stack and writes the registers back, so the handler's changes reach
the interrupted code, as they do on Windows. errno is left as the
handler leaves it, as libthr does.
A raise on another thread takes the target's join lock with the host
signal blocked and returns ESRCH once the thread has finished, so a
detached thread's pthread_t is never signalled after it exits. The
pthread_t is recorded when the thread is created or adopted. Handlers
are now lock-free atomics, as the host handler reads them.
guest_raise_exception now runs on every platform. It also checks that
r13 and xmm8 reach the handler and that r12 and xmm8 written by the
handler reach the interrupted code.

Capture errno before the ENOTDIR lookup, translate EINVAL from a name
under a regular file to ENOTDIR, check the parent only once and strip a
trailing separator before taking it, and split the dense rmdir return.
On Windows mkdir_nid_postfix returned ENOENT and sceKernelMkdir and
sceKernelRmdir returned ENOENT or EIO when a regular file was used as a
directory in the path. FreeBSD mkdir(2) and rmdir(2) return ENOTDIR for
a path component that is not a directory.
FreeBSD's kernel_sigaction rejects SIGKILL and SIGSTOP only for a handler other than SIG_DFL, so signal(9, SIG_DFL) and signal(17, SIG_DFL) succeed. Drop the SIG_ERR rejection, which has no kernel basis and which sigaction does not apply.
signal() returned SIG_ERR with EINVAL for any signal without a host
equivalent, such as SIGHUP, SIGPIPE and SIGUSR1, while sigaction()
accepted them. FreeBSD's signal() is sigaction() with SA_RESTART and fails
only for numbers outside 1..128 and for SIGKILL and SIGSTOP.
Report the thread's affinity mask as a 32-byte FreeBSD cpuset_t, with
FreeBSD 11's errors: ERANGE for any other set size, ESRCH for a null
thread and EFAULT for a null set.
EVO-PLAYER (PPSA99039 v0.11.0) imports it (Jb2uGFMr688) and calls it

Relinks the ELF modules of extra directories under the module parent directory. Modules the executable or another module needs start with the executable; the others are initialized when the title loads them with sceKernelLoadStartModule, with its start arguments (Windows: __aps5_guest_initialize export; Linux: left out of DT_NEEDED).
Squashed onto main by the reviewer (history had a merge commit).
A stack base need not be page aligned (it is not on Linux), so rounding the
range down first could leave the stack and miss the stack path. The range the
guest asked for is now checked against the guest stack, and the rounded
pages are protected, as FreeBSD rounds the address down.
A thread that exits with part of its stack protected left those pages to the
next thread that reused the stack. Protected stack pages are recorded, and a
thread's stack is made readable and writable again when it is unregistered at
exit.

On Windows a guest thread runs on its host thread's stack, which is not a

On Linux every call opened /proc/self/maps and scanned it line by line with sscanf. Unity titles call it on each stack walk, and with about 900 mappings God of War Sons of Sparta (PPSA28997) spent most of its main thread there. The covering mapping is now asked of the kernel with PROCMAP_QUERY (Linux 6.11), on one descriptor opened once, as GuestMemory does; older kernels and APS5_NO_PROCMAP_QUERY keep the line scan.
The title id now comes from GetAppTitleId, so param.json has one parser and
its validation (a missing file or titleId throws). Another pid returns EPERM
and a null info returns 0 without writing, as shadPS4 does. app_id stays 1,

The AMM ranges were reserved address-less on first use, so they took the
lowest free address of the arena, directly after the title's last mapping,
where the title's next hinted maps go. They are now reserved at a fixed

the hints derived from them do not reach; a reservation that cannot be made
there throws.

A wait on an equeue that holds socket events now blocks in poll/WSAPoll on
those sockets plus a per-thread loopback wake socket, instead of rechecking
every millisecond. Adding, triggering or deleting an event and closing the
equeue wake the blocked waiters. Closing a socket removes its read and write
events, as on FreeBSD. A read event also reports EV_EOF once the peer has
shut down its sending side.
sceKernelAddReadEvent/DeleteReadEvent and sceKernelAddWriteEvent/
DeleteWriteEvent register EVFILT_READ and EVFILT_WRITE events on guest
sockets. The equeue polls the host socket for readiness on each wait

RetroArch (PPSA99169) stops at alarm on main: `FAIL: unresolved ELF import DQXJraCc1rA from libSceLibcInternal.prx`.
alarm(seconds) arms one process-wide real-time alarm and returns the seconds left on the previous one, rounded up like FreeBSD's alarm.c (any partial second counts); alarm(0) cancels it. When it expires, SIGALRM's disposition as recorded by sigaction or signal applies: ignored, nothing happens; default, the process terminates as on FreeBSD (exit status 128 + 14); a guest handler throws, because asynchronous delivery to a guest handler is not implemented.

The registry calls an observer on the mapping thread, after the registry
lock is released, with the ranges a kernel mapping gave GPU access:
direct and flexible maps with it, and fixed remaps with it over a
registered range (a reservation). The mutation looks them up while it
still holds the lock and hands them over weakly, with the registry
generation it ended at, so the observer does not keep a range alive.
The driver imports those ranges on its current device, so an
address-based build finds the import instead of pinning the memory on
the queue that first uses it. A range that gains GPU access through
sceKernelMprotect, and AnyPS5's own libc heap, are still imported on
first use.
The import at map does not reconcile the other imports with the
registry, so its cost does not grow with the number of imports. It skips
a range that is gone, and any range when the imports were reconciled
with a newer registry since; the next lookup imports those as before.
It installs the pin waiter as the other import paths do, so unmapping a
range imported at map retires its import. The live import bytes are kept as a
running total instead of being summed over every import. Once the import
table belongs to the current device the import takes only the table's
lock; the first import on a device (which runs the write-watch probe)
and a device that was just replaced go through the GPU lock. Clearing
the observer waits for calls already running.

save-mask flag at offset 88 is set it restores the mask saved at 72
through _sigprocmask, then reloads rbx, rsp, rbp, r12-r15 and the x87
control word and returns to the saved address with val, or 1 for 0.

FreeBSD's unlink ignores the file's own permission bits, so it succeeds
on a file the guest made read-only with chmod(0400). On Windows the guest
chmod sets the read-only attribute and _wunlink then failed with EACCES,
which sceKernelUnlink and unlink reported. When the path is a regular file
without write permission, make it writable before the single _wunlink and
restore the read-only attribute if the unlink fails, as remove() does
since #2342.

The mutex attribute now keeps its protocol and priority ceiling the way
FreeBSD's libthr does: the ceiling can be set and read only under
PTHREAD_PRIO_PROTECT (EINVAL otherwise), and setting a protocol resets it
to the highest SCHED_RR priority. Mutexes still do not apply priority
protection; that is listed as a silent stub.

A map without MAP_FIXED whose hint lies wholly inside a range still
reserved by sceKernelReserveVirtualRange is placed at the hint, as a fixed
map into the reservation would be. Hints outside reservations and ranges
that are partly mapped keep their hint behaviour. The reservation is
checked under the registry mutation, so it cannot be released and its
address reused between the check and the map (MarcZX100, #2687).

A guest path whose bytes the host cannot convert to a native path made
ResolvePath throw std::filesystem::filesystem_error, which aborted the
process. No file can have such a name on the host, so stat reports
ENOENT, as for any other missing file.

VLC (PPSA85300) imports execvp (0NJDcQ2B8vE) from libkernel and fails
to load because no library exports it. Replacing the process image is
not supported, so it throws if called, like sceSystemServiceLoadExec
does for executable replacement. VLC itself cannot reach the call: its
fork and vfork fail with ENOSYS, so the child that would call execvp is
never created.
sceKernelSignalSema threw invalid_argument for a count of 0. Marvel's
Wolverine (PPSA03671) signals with a count computed as min(a, b) - c,
which can be 0, and ignores the result, so the throw ended the title a
few minutes in. A zero count now adds no tokens and returns SCE_OK, as
in shadPS4 and Kyty. A null semaphore and a negative count still throw.
guest_kernel_errors signals 0 on a full and on an empty semaphore and
checks that the count is unchanged.

(cherry picked from commit 7191d34c4d79622ba71087f0da2b75eb81ad2c23)
sceKernelMkdir checked that the parent of the resolved path exists, but
for "dir/" std::filesystem::path reports "dir" itself as the parent, so
the call failed with ENOENT and created nothing, while FreeBSD's mkdir
(and the POSIX mkdir export) accept it. Strip trailing separators first,
and report ENOTDIR when the parent exists but is not a directory.

(cherry picked from commit 5f74ddba8b346e6c552cf02554d47382708206f3)
Add the guest socket descriptor guard to sceKernelFdatasync before any
native syscall, matching the existing sceKernelFchmod pattern. This
prevents high guest socket descriptors (e.g. 0x10000000) from reaching
the Windows CRT _commit, which would trigger the invalid-parameter
handler, and ensures the correct SCE error is returned on all platforms.
Refactor fdatasync_nid_postfix to delegate to sceKernelFdatasync via
PosixResult, removing the duplicated socket guard and native syscall.
Extend GuestFilesystem tests to cover:
- sceKernelFdatasync on a valid guest socket returns SCE EINVAL (0x80020016)
- sceKernelFdatasync on a closed guest socket returns SCE EBADF (0x80020009)
- sceKernelFdatasync on a high invalid descriptor (0x7fffffff) returns SCE EBADF
- closed-ordinary-descriptor tests now run on Windows (verified _commit on
a closed descriptor returns EBADF without provoking the CRT handler)
Without MAP_FIXED the address is a hint, as for FreeBSD's mmap: the reservation goes at the hint when that range is free, else at the first free range above it. The hint was dropped, so every hinted reservation landed at the lowest free address.
RetroArch (PPSA99169) reserves its cores' direct-memory heap near 0x2000000000 outside the GPU window (0x200000000-0x300000000) and refuses a range inside it; with every reservation at 0x200400000 the heap was never made, and Dolphin's first aligned allocation returned null.

The Windows sceKernelPread stopped going through pread when it learned to
return errors, and with it lost the random device read, so a pread on
/dev/urandom reached ReadFile on a handle that is not a disk and failed
with ESPIPE. Read random devices first, as the Linux path does.
A pread into a read-only guest mapping now returns EFAULT instead of
throwing, matching Linux and the AIO read beside it, so the Windows
guest memory test checks for that return.
