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.

PokeMMO Prospero (PPSA98001) stops at siglongjmp (pebqbE5ws8s) from
libkernel. The title links its own FreeBSD sigsetjmp, so siglongjmp
follows FreeBSD's amd64 __siglongjmp and its sigjmp_buf layout: when the
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).

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 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.
An unmapped range inside the guest arena stays a PROT_NONE host
reservation, so host munlock succeeds on it. Check the guest mapping
state first, as msync does, and return ENOMEM for ranges the guest
has not mapped or reserved.
The arena constructor was Windows-only, so on Linux Available() was false: the guest heap fell back to the host allocator and direct memory landed wherever the kernel pleased. Titles that require a low virtual address rejected the mapping and re-issued the identical request, which surfaced as a start-up assert inside their own allocator.
Seed the window from the mappings that already exist instead of reserving it up front, because a PROT_NONE reservation of the whole range starves the kernel's own top-down mmap, which picks addresses just below the stack inside that range. Commit, reset and set-protection become portable so the arena owns its used ranges on both platforms, and fixed mappings are checked against the arena's used ranges rather than against EEXIST from a reservation.
The window-placement and no-overwrite checks in guest_memory were compiled only for Windows; they now run on Linux too, and the window check fails without this change.
Fixes#692
Since guest threads get exactly the stack size they request, host code
that a guest thread calls runs on that small stack too. sceAgcCreateShader
reaches Driver::RegisterShader, whose frame alone is about 50 KiB, so a
title whose job threads ask for 48 KiB overflows the stack (#2603).
Each guest thread now gets a fixed 1 MiB of host stack below the range it
asked for. The guest still sees the requested size and address range
through scePthreadAttrGet and sceKernelIsStack; only host calls made from
the thread use the extra room. Running the prepared-shader driver tests on
a limited main-thread stack needs between 128 and 192 KiB for shader
registration, Vulkan setup included, so 1 MiB leaves several times that.
Switching to a separate host stack at each HLE entry point would need a
trampoline on every export that may go deep, handling of stack-passed
arguments and unwinding across the switch, and a list of which exports
qualify. A margin below the guest range covers every host call with no
per-export list.
On Windows the committed size was the requested size, and the margin
below it depended on the executable's default stack reserve; requests at
or above that reserve had none. The commit now includes the same margin.
macOS does not run guest threads.
guest_pthread_stack now also calls host code that uses 256 KiB of stack
below each thread's guest range; without the margin it crashes on the
16 KiB thread.
Fixes#2603
scePthreadCancel and pthread_cancel threw, scePthreadTestcancel did
nothing and the cleanup handler exports did not exist.
A cancel request is now recorded on the thread and acted on at
scePthreadTestcancel, the condition variable waits, scePthreadSem and
sem waits, scePthreadJoin and the sleeps, and under their POSIX names.
A thread blocked in one of the waits is woken; a condition wait takes
its mutex back before the thread exits. The thread exits with
PTHREAD_CANCELED through scePthreadExit, which now runs the handlers
of __pthread_cleanup_push_imp and __pthread_cleanup_pop_imp.
scePthreadSetcancelstate and scePthreadSetcanceltype reject unknown
values, and pthread_setcanceltype is added.
Constants, the handler node layout and the order of events follow
FreeBSD libthr. A sleep is not interrupted, file and socket calls are
not cancellation points and the asynchronous type acts like the
deferred one except at the two set calls (TechnicalDebt). New test:
guest_pthread_cancel.
Leave the Windows identity fields at their stat values when
GetFileInformationByHandle fails on a handle whose basic information
could be read, instead of failing the whole call.
st_ino was always 0 and st_dev differed between stat (drive number) and
fstat (0), so the usual a.st_dev == b.st_dev && a.st_ino == b.st_ino
identity check gave wrong answers. Read the volume serial, the file index
and the link count from the file handle, which works the same for path and
descriptor lookups.
Fixes#2296
ProsperoStore (PPSA99000) imports kill from libkernel and stops at it on
current main. Its crash reporter resets a crash signal to SIG_DFL and
sends it again with kill(getpid(), signal).
kill follows FreeBSD's kern_kill and killpg1 for the only guest process:
EINVAL for signals outside 0 to 128, signal 0 only checks the target,
and the caller's own pid, 0 and minus its pid deliver through raise.
Any other pid, and -1, which skips the caller, report ESRCH.
The registry records whether a range was mapped or protected with GPU
access (0x10/0x20), and an address-based build leaves out ranges without
it, as the console's GPU page tables do. The main image is registered
without GPU access; the title's own mprotect with GPU bits adds it.

Move the image unregistration out of the Module destructor into
dlclose_nid_postfix. It runs while the handle is still registered, so a
failure (the image stays leased by GPU work) propagates to the caller and
leaves the module loaded and usable. Images shared by another open
handle stay registered until the last handle closes.
guest_memory now checks that dlclose under a held lease throws and keeps
the module, its symbols and its protection.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A .guest.prx image registered by sceKernelMprotect stayed in the guest
allocation registry after dlclose freed it, so its dead ranges blocked
later mappings at that address and could reach GPU builds.
The Windows module destructor now unregisters the image before
FreeLibrary. Unregistering waits for outstanding leases on the image like
unmap and protect do; if the wait fails the module stays loaded.

On Windows, sceKernelMprotect accepted only the executable's image and threw
"Memory protection of a foreign image is not supported" for every other
image. Bundled title modules are relinked into DLLs named <module>.guest.prx,
so a title that reprotects its own module pages failed. Dying Light 2's
bundled libNRD does this at start-up (#1794).
DoMprotect now also accepts images whose file name ends in .guest.prx, and
registers their committed pages like the executable's. Other images are
still refused.

On Windows, sceKernelPread and sceKernelPwrite called the POSIX pread and
pwrite wrappers, which throw on every failure, so a bad descriptor, a
negative offset or a write to a read-only descriptor aborted the process
instead of returning an error as the Linux build does. ftruncate and
sceKernelFtruncate threw on any host failure on both platforms.
Give the Windows sceKernelPread and sceKernelPwrite the same checks and
SceErrorFromErrno returns as the Linux ones, and accept a zero-length
transfer with a null buffer. Report a positioned transfer on a handle
opened without the needed access as EBADF instead of EIO. Return EINVAL
from ftruncate for a negative length and for a descriptor opened without
write access, as FreeBSD does, and pass other host errors to the guest.
Fixes#2423
On Windows, getargc and getargv reported only the executable path, read
with GetModuleFileNameA in the ANSI code page, and dropped every other
argument. Linux returns the whole command line from /proc/self/cmdline,
and the relinker's Windows entry stub already passes the guest entry all
arguments converted to UTF-8.
Parse GetCommandLineW with CommandLineToArgvW and convert each argument
to UTF-8 with WC_ERR_INVALID_CHARS, as the entry stub does, so getargv
matches the entry's argv and the Linux behaviour. The Linux path is
unchanged.
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 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.
AI-assisted: yes. Match the firmware 13.60 probe in PR #1798: names of 32 bytes or more return guest ENAMETOOLONG=63 and preserve the prior name. The complete final change passed a full Windows build and eight focused runtime tests.
Neither existed under the guest root, so opening them failed and titles
that then read from the descriptor crashed. Opening either for reading
now returns a descriptor whose reads, positioned reads and vector reads
fill the buffer from the host's random device, as
sceRandomGetRandomNumber does. Opening them for writing throws.

scePthreadCreate on Linux started guest threads with std::thread, so every
thread got the host default stack (RLIMIT_STACK, usually 8 MiB) whatever the
title asked for. A thread that asks for more than that and uses it crashes
with SIGSEGV. Once the thread ran, scePthreadAttrGet also reported the host
size instead of the requested one.
Create the thread with pthread_create and a stack of the requested size plus
what glibc keeps at its top (static TLS, the thread control block and the
start_thread frame). That reserve is measured once with a probe thread.
The thread reports [top - reserve - size, top - reserve) as its stack, as
Windows reports [top - size, top), and the creator waits until the range is
set, as on Windows.

A zero, unaligned, overflowing or out-of-range length reached the physical pool, where a sub-page length silently freed a whole page and fragmented the block map, and an out-of-range length walked the page table past the backing store. Validate alignment and bounds up front and return EINVAL instead.
flock_nid_postfix threw on every failure, so a LOCK_NB request on a lock
held through another descriptor ended the process. FreeBSD flock(2)
returns -1 with EWOULDBLOCK there. Return guest errno 35 when LOCK_NB is
set and the host reports the lock as held: ERROR_LOCK_VIOLATION on
Windows, EWOULDBLOCK on Linux. Other failures still throw.

FreeBSD sys_flock takes LOCK_UN over LOCK_EX over LOCK_SH, ignores other
bits and fails with EBADF when none of the three is set. The operation
reached the host unchanged, so malformed operations differed between
hosts: Linux rejects them with EINVAL and the Windows lock tracking threw.
Decode the operation before either host sees it.
flock mapped each call straight onto LockFileEx/UnlockFileEx, whose
byte-range locks stack per handle. LOCK_UN without a lock failed with
ERROR_NOT_LOCKED and aborted the process, a repeated LOCK_EX blocked
forever, converting between shared and exclusive failed, and a repeated
LOCK_SH needed as many unlocks.
Track the one lock each descriptor holds: a repeated mode and LOCK_UN
without a lock succeed, a conversion releases the old lock before taking
the new one, and close forgets the descriptor's lock.
On Windows the existence check accepts "file/", then _wstat64 rejects
it and FillFileStat throws, aborting the title. On Linux the host
reports ENOTDIR, which became ENOENT. A trailing slash on something
that is not a directory now returns ENOTDIR on both hosts, as on
FreeBSD.

FreeBSD's gettimeofday stores the time only when tp is not null, and

AJM's instance and batch tables and APR's file, directory and AMM
state were namespace-scope statics, destroyed by std::exit while the
title's threads keep calling the libraries. A decoder thread then read
a freed instance (an unknown codec), sceAjmBatchWait no longer found
its batch, and APR resolved file ids through a freed vector. The state
is now allocated once and never destroyed.
Every direct memory allocation had a memfd of its own, so each one the
GPU used became its own udmabuf and its own imported buffer object. An
imported buffer object cannot be always valid in the GPU VM: amdgpu
validates every one of them at every command submission. PPSA14632
(LEGO Horizon Adventures) imports about 7000 allocations, 5800 of them
64 KiB, and each vkQueueSubmit took about 2.3 ms (5 s per 10 s, held
under the GPU mutex). A standalone test shows the cost follows the
count of imported dma-buf buffer objects, not their size or the count
of ordinary allocations.
- libkernel: on Linux all direct memory lives in one sparse memfd of
DIRECT_MEMORY_SIZE, at file offset = physical address
(PhysicalBacking keeps the file and its offset; SharedBacking returns
that offset). A range allocated again is zeroed through a temporary
mapping, as the old per-allocation memfd was.
- Driver: an import of shared direct memory that lies inside one
64 MiB chunk of the file binds its own VkBuffer into that chunk's
memory, one udmabuf import per chunk (HostImport::chunk holds it, so
it lives until the last buffer bound to it retires). Ranges that
cross a chunk or do not meet the buffer alignment are imported alone
as before.
On PPSA14632 vkQueueSubmit drops from about 2400 us to 46 us on
average, the GPU idles 36 ms instead of 172 ms per present, and
presents go from about 40 to 80-97 per 10 s.
Released direct memory stays committed in the file (see
TechnicalDebt.md): a live chunk import pins its pages.

A title that ships its own libc.prx unwinds C++ exceptions with that
libc's libunwind, which asks sceKernelGetModuleInfoForUnwind where each

no C++ exception thrown in guest code could be caught. For the main

that sceKernelGetModuleInfoFromAddr finds, as Windows does from
.ehmeta. Other host images still report none.

Winsock fails send, sendto and sendmsg on a socket shut down for writing
with WSAESHUTDOWN, which neither Windows error map handled, so libkernel
and libSceNet reported EIO. FreeBSD reports EPIPE there, and the Linux
maps already translate the host's EPIPE to 32. Map WSAESHUTDOWN to 32
in both.
Fill takes either info struct, so sceKernelGetModuleInfo reports the
name and segments sceKernelGetModuleInfoFromAddr reports for the same
image, on Linux and Windows.
sigprocmask keeps the first word of the title's set as it is, where
FreeBSD keeps signal n at bit n - 1 (_SIG_BIT), but Dispatch tested bit
n. A title that blocked SIGTERM with a FreeBSD-built set (bit 14) was
not protected, and a set with bit 15 blocked SIGTERM instead of SIGURG.
Dispatch now tests bit n - 1; the stored mask and the set returned by
sigprocmask are unchanged.

sceKernelLoadStartModule discarded its arguments, and the relinker's Linux guest writer
synthesized an initialisation trampoline that also cleared the argument registers before
jumping to the module entry point, so a converted module always reached its own start-up
code with args = 0 and argp = NULL.
On PPSA28997 two of the title's own modules validate that parameter block as their first
act and dereference it unconditionally: SaveData faults on `mov (%rsi),%eax` with rsi = 0
beside its `cmp $0x10` size checks, and PSN faults the same way at PSN+0x3ee7 with rbx = 0.
The Windows branch delivers the block, so identical code reports its parameter-version
error and continues instead of faulting.
sceKernelLoadStartModule now records the pair before dlopen and clears it afterwards, and
the emitted DT_INIT stub reads it through two accessors exported by libkernel. The
initialiser is called rather than tail-jumped so its return value can be reported through
*res as the PS5 API specifies. The state is thread_local, which makes the handoff per-call:
ld.so runs a module's initialiser on the thread that called dlopen. DT_FINI keeps a plain
call-through, so unloading neither reads stale arguments nor reports a result.
The accessor names use the _nid_no_patch suffix so the NID resolver leaves them alone and a
guest import can name them exactly.
Retain host backing views for emulator writes and completion labels. Validate full spans, preserve write versions and GPU ordering, and keep the fallback for other mappings. Test remaps, aliases, access checks, partial failures, tracking, view lifetime, and completion ordering.

EVO-PLAYER (PPSA99039) v0.11.0 stops at sigaction once its earlier

SIGABRT and a quit handler for SIGTERM, SIGINT and SIGHUP at start-up.
sigaction records the handler, flags and mask of signals 1 to 128 and
reports them back, with FreeBSD's EINVAL cases. signal shares the table
and records SA_RESTART, as FreeBSD's libc does. Plain handlers on the
signals signal already delivers run as signal handlers do; SA_SIGINFO
handlers and other signals are recorded only, and raise of such a
signal throws.

Each Windows AIO request is an overlapped ReadFile/WriteFile at the
request's offset, which on a synchronous handle also moves the
descriptor's file pointer; on the console AIO transfers leave it alone.
The requests now go through the positioned path sceKernelPread and
sceKernelPwrite use (NativePositioned in Stdio.cpp, exposed as
NativePositioned_nid_no_patch), which restores the pointer afterwards.
Negative offsets still fail with EINVAL before the transfer.
GuestAio sets the offset to 2 before a write batch and checks it is
still 2 after. TechnicalDebt records that a concurrent read or write on
the same descriptor can see the moved pointer in between, as for the
pread family.

read returns 0 as dofileread does, and the two sceKernel forms return
the kernel error for the same cases. The host's SIGPIPE on EPIPE, a

msync follows FreeBSD 11's kern_msync and vm_map_sync over the guest's
mappings as sceKernelVirtualQuery reports them: the address is rounded
down to the page, a range that wraps and MS_ASYNC with MS_INVALIDATE are
EINVAL, an unmapped start or page is ENOMEM, and length 0 checks the
mapping that holds the address. The guest has no file mappings, so a
successful call has nothing to write back. MS_INVALIDATE on a mapped
range throws, since FreeBSD's EBUSY for mlocked pages needs lock state
that is not tracked.

A title's descriptors are taken as never being terminals: a file or
pipe gets ENOTTY with the termios untouched, a socket gets what its

tcsetattr gives EINVAL for an action other than TCSANOW, TCSADRAIN or
TCSAFLUSH, with or without TCSASOFT, before anything else, and EFAULT

The guest process is assumed to run as root. Under FreeBSD's
sys_seteuid and sys_setegid, id 0 is then accepted without a privilege
check and changes no credential, so both return 0. Any other id would
change the effective credential, which is not modelled, and throws.
Part of #1578.
sceKernelAprSubmitCommandBuffer rejected a buffer object with EINVAL
unless sceAmprAprCommandBufferConstructor had tagged it. The tag is
AnyPS5's own: in the retail layout the type word only carries state
bits and the constructors zero the object, so a zero-filled object
bound with SetBuffer is a valid APR buffer.
CRI's file system in Sonic Origins (PPSA05324) lays out its
AprCommandBuffer objects in its own zeroed work memory and never calls
the constructors. Its first read submit failed with 0x80020016, and the
CRI file system stopped there.

winpthreads initializes a PTHREAD_RWLOCK_INITIALIZER lock on its first

FreeBSD's unlink(2) reports EPERM for a directory, but the host call

sceKernelMunlock and the POSIX munlock unlock the page-rounded range with
FreeBSD's results: 0 for a mapped range whether or not it is locked, EINVAL
for a range that wraps around zero, ENOMEM for an unmapped range. On Linux
the host munlock gives them. On Windows a reserved placeholder counts as
mapped only while the guest reservation or protection registry covers it,
and a region VirtualUnlock refuses as not fully locked is unlocked page by
page, as VirtualUnlock is all-or-nothing. sceKernelMlock shares the range
rounding.

The repo allows one implementation per export. Move libc's rename into
libc/src/Rename.cpp, compile that file into both libc and libkernel, and
drop the second copy from libkernel's Stdio.cpp. FilesystemError moves to a
header so the shared source can use it.
The test now checks that the symbol it resolves belongs to libkernel (module
handle on Windows, dladdr on Linux) so it fails when the export is removed.

AF_UNIX pairs as FreeBSD 11 makes them: SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM and
SOCK_SEQPACKET with protocol 0, SOCK_NONBLOCK applied to both ends and
SOCK_CLOEXEC accepted, EAFNOSUPPORT for an unknown family, EOPNOTSUPP
for AF_INET and AF_INET6, EPROTONOSUPPORT for type 0 or a protocol,
EPROTOTYPE for another type, EFAULT for a null output, and nothing
written on failure. The ends are guest sockets, so send, recv,
shutdown, fcntl, poll and close work on them; getsockname and
getpeername report the unnamed AF_UNIX address, recvfrom and recvmsg
no address for a stream and the unnamed one for a datagram. On Linux
the pair is the host's socketpair; on Windows a loopback TCP connection

Each direct memory backing keeps a memfd open, so a title such as
Dreaming Sarah (PPSA02929) holds about 1100 descriptors at startup.
With the systemd default soft limit of 1024, later opens fail with
EMFILE: memfd_create throws "create direct memory backing: Too many
open files", or the title's fopen returns NULL and it faults in fread.
libkernel now raises the RLIMIT_NOFILE soft limit to the hard limit
when it is loaded, before the title creates any descriptor, and throws
if the limit cannot be read or raised.
The retry that waits for a target to leave NtContinue, NtContinueEx or
libwinpthread-1.dll had no bound, so a target that stayed there made
sceKernelRaiseException spin forever. It now throws after 1 s. A new
guest_raise_exception phase keeps a thread inside NtContinue by
continuing a context that calls NtContinue again, and checks that the
raise throws and that the handler did not run.

Titles pass handle 0 (RTLD_DEFAULT) for a process-wide lookup, and the loader rejected it: the handle is
not in the module map, so every such lookup failed even when a loaded module exports the symbol. Handle 0
and -2 now take the default scope, searching the global modules by plain name, NID and `#guest` form, and
then the process-wide scope.
The process-wide scope of the real loader also contains glibc and libstdc++, so an unfiltered fallback
would answer `malloc`, `dlopen` and `pthread_create` where PS5 reports the symbol as missing: handle 0 is
the main program, whose lookup sees the program's exports, not the host C++ runtime. A result from the
process scope is therefore accepted only when `dladdr` attributes it to a converted or replacement module
(a `.prx` library or the executable), which keeps the fallback for guest symbols and removes the host
leak. `guest_dynamic_loader` asserts the three host names are not found; disabling the filter makes that
test fail.
The scripting heap that an earlier revision of this branch added has been dropped: the title reaches the
same boot milestone with the lookup failing honestly, so the export was an inference rather than a
requirement, and prosper's bring-up notes report `ESRCH` for that name on hardware.
SleepUntil, PollSleepUntil and SleepNanosCoarse each wait on one
thread_local high-resolution timer. A sceKernelRaiseException handler
that runs as an APC inside a sleeping thread's wait and sleeps itself
re-armed that timer and consumed its signal, so the interrupted sleep
never returned. A nested TimerWait now waits on its own timer.

send, sendto and sendmsg rejected every flag with EOPNOTSUPP, so callers

native MSG_NOSIGNAL. Other flags still fail with EOPNOTSUPP.

On macOS the host keeps libc++abi: libc++ binds __cxa_throw two-level,
so moving only the personality into this runtime would leave the two
halves disagreeing on the exception header. The host personalities stay
libc++abi's and libunwind's, and libc.prx serves guest code:
- the guest's libstdc++ std::exception_ptr is modelled directly, since
libc++'s differs, and the Itanium type_info layouts that libc++abi
keeps private are declared for the runtime;
- guest frames are found through their PT_GNU_EH_FRAME, using a
dl_iterate_phdr emulation over the ELF program headers that relinked
images keep in __APS5DATA,__meta (written by relinker --macos, which
comes in a later pull request);
- host frames are found by scanning __TEXT,__eh_frame;
- sceKernelGetModuleInfoForUnwind uses the same emulation and falls back
to dladdr for host images.
The libc++ paths compile only with libc++/libc++abi and the rest only
on __APPLE__, so Linux and Windows builds are unchanged.
exception_c_cleanup throws from host code, which this runtime does not
serve on macOS, so it is not built there.
sceKernelGetProcessTime and sceKernelGetProcessTimeCounter subtracted
GetStartNanos() from GetMonotonicNanos() in one expression. GCC reads the
clock first, so on the first call in a process the start was captured
after it and the result wrapped to about 2^64.

scePthreadMutexDestroy threw when the mutex was locked. FreeBSD libthr,
which the console's libkernel follows, returns EBUSY and leaves the
mutex usable; PPSA28997 destroys a locked mutex during its intro and
was aborted.
A condition wait on a recursive mutex locked more than once unlocked the
native mutex only once, so the thread that should signal blocked forever
on it. Unlock the remaining levels before the wait and lock them again
after it, as FreeBSD libthr does in _mutex_cv_unlock and _mutex_cv_lock.

A thread that sceKernelRaiseException redirects resumes through
RtlRestoreContext with a CONTEXT that has no XSTATE, so the upper halves
of ymm0-ymm15 came back as the handler and the delivery path left them.
A handler or host routine that runs vzeroupper or any VEX instruction
(Zen 2 guest code, the CRT's memcpy) cleared the upper lanes of a thread
interrupted in the middle of AVX code. The entry stub now stores
ymm0-ymm15 next to the delivery when the CPU and the OS enable AVX, and
the exit loads them back right before RtlRestoreContext, which restores
only the low halves.

sceKernelGetCurrentCpu returned the raw host CPU index. Guest affinities
are bookkeeping only and sceKernelGetAvailableCpumask advertises CPUs 0
to 12, so on a host with more than 13 logical CPUs a title could get 13
or higher, and a thread pinned to one CPU could get another one.
The host index now selects a CPU of the calling thread's affinity
clipped to the available mask, so the result is always an advertised
CPU and a thread pinned to one CPU reports that CPU.

A thread had one TimedWait waiter for every wait. When
sceKernelRaiseException reached a thread blocked in a TimedWait
condition, its handler ran as an APC inside that wait, and a wait in
the handler queued the same waiter on a second condition while it was
still linked into the first. The links of the first queue were
overwritten, so waiters behind it were never woken, and a wake of the
outer wait set the shared event and was consumed by the inner wait.
A wait now takes the thread's first waiter that is not in use, and
creates a deeper one for a wait nested inside another.

On Windows each AIO request seeked a _dup of the descriptor and then read
or wrote through it. A duplicated descriptor shares the file position, and
the seek and the transfer are separate calls, so two threads submitting
requests on one descriptor could transfer at each other's offset. Each
request is now a single ReadFile/WriteFile with an OVERLAPPED offset on
the OS handle, as pread and pwrite already do in Stdio.cpp.
GuestAio reads four distinct blocks of one descriptor from four threads
and checks every result.

Opening a volume needs administrator rights, so the volume flush skipped
every volume in a normal user session. The libc, libkernel, save data and
app content file functions now record each host file and directory they
change. On Windows sceKernelSync flushes the recorded paths that changed
since the previous call, plus their changed parent directories, through
handles a normal user can open. Linux still calls sync().
On the console a title whose param.json declares downloadDataSize finds
/download0 mounted from the start. The host directory was only created
by sceAppContentDownloadDataGetAvailableSpaceKb, so a title that opens
files there directly got ENOENT. libkernel now creates it when it loads,
reading only the run directory's param.json, without resolving guest
paths, so the libc path root is still fixed at first use.

Gathering every iovec into one host buffer threw for a total above

MinGW's thread_local goes through emutls and winpthreads' pthread_getspecific, which holds a per-thread spinlock. A raise that redirected a thread holding it ran the handler on that same thread, and a handler reading any thread_local, scePthreadSelf for one, spun on the lock forever. A raise that finds the target inside libwinpthread-1.dll now resumes it and suspends it again, as one inside NtContinue does.
guest_raise_exception's new phase raises at a thread that calls scePthreadSelf in a loop and checks that the handler sees its own thread. It hung in every run without the retry. TechnicalDebt records that a handler can still reenter other host code the thread was interrupted in.

SuspendThread returns before the thread has stopped, and GetThreadContext waits until it has. waitCount was read right after SuspendThread, so a thread that was leaving its wait could still decrement it and drain its APCs with NtTestAlert before QueueUserAPC queued the delivery, which then waited for an alertable wait that never came. The context is now read first, so waitCount is read from a stopped thread.

A raised exception redirects the target thread to a stub that runs the handler and returns through RtlRestoreContext. On Windows 10 (19045) RtlRestoreContext restores in user mode only when the context flags are exactly CONTEXT_FULL | CONTEXT_SEGMENTS (CONTEXT_XSTATE aside); for the CONTEXT_FULL | CONTEXT_FLOATING_POINT context it was given, it calls NtContinue. When the next raise suspended the thread inside that system call, NtContinue then replaced the redirected context with the one it was restoring, so the handler never ran although sceKernelRaiseException had returned 0. guest_raise_exception lost such a delivery to its busy thread in about one run in five and hung until the ctest timeout.
The context is now read with CONTEXT_SEGMENTS, so the handler returns through the user-mode restore, and a raise that finds the thread inside NtContinue or NtContinueEx (an APC or an exception handler returning) resumes it and suspends it again.

The patcher rewrites .dynstr in place and reorders .dynsym for
.gnu.hash, but .gnu.version_d kept pointing at name offsets that the
rewrite had recycled: a library carrying symbol version definitions
came out with renamed or blanked version names while its symbols
still advertised a version.
No library in the build defines symbol versions, so fail on
.gnu.version_d during the section scan and leave the input untouched
instead of carrying version remapping that nothing exercises. The
test covers the rejection and that a library without version
definitions is still patched.

On Windows the call returned no eh_frame_hdr for every address, so a

terminated on the first C++ exception thrown in guest code. PPSA12544

AmbiguousMatchException that Unity catches and logs, and the runtime
called terminate instead. For an address in a relinked guest image the

eh_frame it points to and its size, and the image as seg0; host images

On Linux, direct memory is a memfd mapped MAP_SHARED. amdgpu accepts only
private anonymous memory for a host pointer import (libdrm sets
AMDGPU_GEM_USERPTR_ANONONLY), so every import of direct memory failed with
VK_ERROR_INVALID_EXTERNAL_HANDLE and its ranges were copied.
When a host pointer import fails, the range's memfd slice is turned into a
dma-buf through /dev/udmabuf and imported with VK_EXT_external_memory_dma_buf.
The direct memory backing is sealed against shrinking and growing, as
udmabuf requires. libkernel reports the backing of a guest range through
GuestArenaSharedBacking. Without /dev/udmabuf, or past its size limit, the
range is copied as before. APS5_TRACE_HOST_IMPORT now prints the mappings
behind a failed import on Linux too.

The APC delivery was allocated after SuspendThread, so a target holding
the allocator lock deadlocked the raising thread; it is now allocated
before the suspend. The wait count a raise checks lived in the target's
thread_local storage and dangled once the thread exited; it is now a
member of PthreadPrivate, which TimedWait counts into through a
thread-local pointer bound when the thread starts, and a raise on a
thread that already finished returns ESRCH. TechnicalDebt gets one line
per unverified choice: Windows only, the FreeBSD ucontext layout, the
signal mask, the YMM upper halves, and delivery to threads outside

Rtld.cpp defined NOMINMAX unconditionally, which redefines the macro the build already passes and warns on MinGW. Use the #ifndef guard the rest of the tree uses.
The FreeBSD kernel ignores sa_len in a socket address passed in and sets
it from the length argument, so titles may leave it 0. Only the family

A thread suspended inside a system call returns through sysret, which
overwrites rcx and r11, so the delivery address passed in rcx was
garbage when the redirected thread resumed. PPSA12544 crashed that way
on its SaveDataProcessQueue thread, blocked in a host wait when Unity's
GC raised SIGUSR1. The redirected rip is now an entry stub that takes
the delivery from its fixed place above rsp. It also stores the live
general registers into the delivery's context first: the snapshot taken
while the thread was in the system call still holds the call number in
rax instead of its result, which the restore would have handed back to
the wait.
The guest test raises at a thread blocked on a host mutex in 20 rounds
and expects each delivery once the wait returns; it fails without this
change.

Four sources defined NOMINMAX unconditionally, which redefines the macro the build already passes and warns on every MinGW build. Use the #ifndef guard the rest of the tree uses.
The redirect entry's Windows x64 home area started inside the guest's
128-byte red zone, and the interrupted thread freed the delivery on the
heap, which it may have been suspended inside. The delivery is now copied
onto the target stack below the red zone, with the home area below it, and
the copy is refused when those pages are not committed.

A title's libc.prx passes the dso address of __cxa_thread_atexit to
_sceKernelRtldThreadAtexitIncrement and fails the registration when it
returns nonzero. Increment takes a reference on the loaded image that
contains the address, so it stays mapped while thread_local destructors
are pending, and Decrement releases one. An address outside every
loaded image and a Decrement without a reference throw.

Ubuntu's GCC links with --as-needed by default, and the fixture uses
nothing from libc or libstdc++, so it ended up with no DT_NEEDED entry
and the dynamic string test had no needed names to check.

Returns the CPU mask threads get by default (DEFAULT_THREAD_AFFINITY,
0x1FFF), the value itself rather than an error code.

The PS5 kernel follows FreeBSD 11, whose libthr accepts process-shared
barriers. Guest code runs in a single process, so a process-shared
barrier synchronises the same threads a private one does; the attribute
is stored and reported back by getpshared.

Both take the FreeBSD msghdr (48 bytes, iovecs of a pointer and a 64-bit
length) and run on the host sockets: sendmsg gathers the iovecs and sends
through sendto, recvmsg receives into one buffer and scatters it. A
datagram longer than the iovecs is cut and reported with MSG_TRUNC, also
on Windows where recvfrom fails with WSAEMSGSIZE. More than 1024 iovecs
fail with EMSGSIZE. No ancillary data is ever received, so recvmsg
clears msg_controllen; sending control data throws.
