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
registered guest allocation, so mprotect on any of its pages failed with
EINVAL. A guest that guards the bottom of its own stack (Dolphin's JIT
read-protects 64 KiB there to catch stack overflows) got an error where the
PS5 changes the protection.
A range that lies inside a live guest thread stack, with no GPU access
requested, now takes the native protection directly. Ranges that cross the
stack's bounds are still rejected.

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 running title's id in libSceSystemService, which is inferred, not
measured.
guest_app_info runs the call without param.json in a child process and
checks that the field between app_id and the title id is left alone.

sceKernelGetAppInfo fills the app id and the title id of the calling
process: app id 1, the running title's id in libSceSystemService, and the
titleId of /app0/sce_sys/param.json at offset 0x10, up to 9 characters and a
terminator. Only those fields are written, since callers declare the
structure with different sizes. Another pid returns ESRCH and a null info
EFAULT.

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
place, the last 64 GiB of the guest arena, which maps without MAP_FIXED and
the hints derived from them do not reach; a reservation that cannot be made
there throws.

The POSIX alias takes (attr, int), returns EINVAL (22) for a null or
uninitialized attribute like the other pthread_attr setters, and
stores the value through scePthreadAttrSetsolosched, returning its
result in errno form. The signature and the stored int follow the SCE
twin in KytyPS5 and sharpemu; PS5PCEM implements the alias the same
way. The value is not applied to scheduling, recorded in TechnicalDebt.
Returnal (PPSA01285 v03.000.005) stops on it after eager binding
(#2872, #1155):
what(): pthread_attr_setsolosched_np_nid_postfix not implemented
LEGO Horizon Adventures (PPSA14632, #734) and Palworld (PPSA23126,
#2598) import it.

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
and reports the readable byte count or the send buffer size in data,
with EV_EOF on hang-up or error.
pthread_cond_wait and pthread_cond_timedwait, and their sce counterparts, threw a
host exception when the mutex was unlocked, locked by another thread, or not yet
initialized, and dereferenced the adaptive static initializer. FreeBSD returns
EPERM for these (EINVAL for a destroyed mutex) before touching the condition.
(cherry picked from commit a78bb8a855ca3b277f128c6a9e52ff3949b9cb80)
The detached alarm thread waits on a condition variable that was a
namespace-scope static. At exit its destructor ran with the thread still
waiting, and glibc's pthread_cond_destroy blocks then, so a process that
called alarm never exited on Linux. The mutex, condition variable, deadline
and started flag now live in one structure allocated once and never
destroyed.

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 timer lives in libkernel next to the signal dispositions (GuestAlarm_nid_no_patch); libSceLibcInternal, which the titles import alarm from, forwards to it.
