mlockall (x7g7Ebeo8-U, aerolib) follows FreeBSD 11.4's sys_mlockall
(sys/vm/vm_mmap.c:1067-1131, freebsd-src
8c639945a44588f6cfdddfb057bb5aad88735da0) for the flag check: 0 or
bits outside MCL_CURRENT (1) and MCL_FUTURE (2) fail with EINVAL. The
title process is taken to pass priv_check(PRIV_VM_MLOCK), as mlock
already does.
Valid flags throw. MCL_FUTURE would need every later guest and host
mapping to be locked; nothing in the mapping paths does that, and
passing it to the host would make later host allocations fail above
the host RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. MCL_CURRENT would have to lock the whole
process, which on AnyPS5 also holds host stacks, heaps, modules and
driver mappings (sceKernelVirtualQuery reports them as guest memory),
with ENOMEM above a guest RLIMIT_MEMLOCK that is not known (getrlimit
throws for it). mlock pins host pages (VirtualLock, mlock) range by
range and keeps no record, so there is no state to extend. Recorded
in TechnicalDebt.
XPSemu (PPSA97358) calls it only with -overcommit mem-lock=on
(ZiZc3/XPSemu 8eec07b4, os-posix.c:330-355, reached from
system/vl.c:831-835):
int flags = MCL_CURRENT | MCL_FUTURE;
...
ret = mlockall(flags);
if (ret < 0) {
error_report("mlockall: %s", strerror(errno));
}
and exits on failure, so that option ends in the throw; without it
the title is not affected. Predicted stop removed (registry index 201,
not run):
FAIL: unresolved ELF import x7g7Ebeo8-U from libkernel.prx
guest_mlock checks EINVAL for 0, 4, 5 and -1 and the throw for 1, 2
and 3.

(cherry picked from commit 87f4aa331b02d098fe27516809495447ff6a9fa6)
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 POSIX form of sceKernelMlock: 0 on success, -1 with errno (EINVAL,
ENOMEM, EPERM, EAGAIN) where the sce form returns the kernel error, as
munmap and mprotect do beside it.
