The Rosetta conversion limits were measured on an M1 running macOS 15.3.1
and an M5 Max. A survey on an M5 running macOS 26.4 executes ANDN, RDRAND,
the rest of BMI1 and BMI2, LZCNT, PREFETCHW, CLFLUSHOPT, AVX, AVX2, FMA,
F16C and MOVBE while CPUID reports none of them, and raises an illegal
instruction for RDSEED, CLWB, RDPID, ADCX and ADOX.
`Path.write_text(newline=...)` and `zip(strict=True)` were added in
Python 3.10. macOS ships 3.9.6 as /usr/bin/python3, the interpreter CMake
finds when no newer one is installed, so `prepare_release_notes` raised
TypeError when the release workflow wrote its notes and the
`pr_overlap_tools`, `release_package` and `linux_fixed_base` tests failed
on a stock macOS host. Writing the encoded text keeps the newline
translation off on every host, and the dynamic tag counts are compared
before the pairs are walked.
Cult of the Lamb (PPSA06465, #2686) stops at start-up on the first one:
FAIL: unresolved ELF import pXJh3aVk8Ks from libSceContentDelete.prx
Both exports have been on main without an implementation (#2740); the
call itself has not been observed yet.
Orbital (cc408367, tools/ida/db_types.json:541-542) and SharpProspero
(5dfdb4b0, Interop/Content/ContentDelete.cs:25-42) agree on the
signatures: a 64-bit SceContentSearchContentId and a UTF-8 path. The
content library is empty on the host, since libSceContentExport exports
nothing into it, so no id or path can be found. SharpProspero gives only
NoPermission (0x809D5006) and no public source gives the not-found code,
so both calls throw with the id or path named once the null path and the
initialization are checked, like the "not in the host content library"
throws of #3724. sceContentDeleteById moves from
guest_content_unimplemented to the new guest_content_delete test.
NIDs pXJh3aVk8Ks and qC3QW+AltHs match tools/nid_names.py and the shadPS4
aerolib list.

APS5_PAD_INPUT_FILE commands can set bit 0x200000 or 0x400000 to put a
finger on the left or right half of the touchpad, as the TouchLeft and
TouchRight keys do, so scripted runs can press touchpad combinations.
tools/pad_input.py queues them as touch-left and touch-right.
AI-assisted: yes
The bundled PSNCore.prx of PPSA06888 calls sceNpTrophy2GetRewardIcon
with (context, handle, reward_id, buffer, size): once with a null buffer
to read the size, then with a buffer of that size. The function still
throws because the reward icon data is unknown.

fopen_s returned ENOENT for every failed open, including an invalid mode, a directory opened for writing and the loop and long-name cases. C11 K.3.5.2.1 only asks for a nonzero value; Microsoft's CRT, which shares Dinkumware's library, returns errno. fopen_s now returns the errno fopen set.
PPSA28997 (IL2CPP) calls sceLibcBacktraceGetBufferSize and
sceLibcBacktraceSelf. On Linux the host call stack is captured with
backtrace and each frame is resolved to its module and offset with
dladdr, then written as a linked list of frame records. The record
layout is inferred and listed in TechnicalDebt. Windows throws.
v_pk_add/mul/fma/fmac/min/max_f16 threw in f16 denormal modes 0-2. On
RDNA2 (gfx1031) bit 6 clear flushes each denormal input lane to a zero
of its sign, and bit 7 clear flushes an add result below 2^-14 and a
mul or fma result whose exact value rounded to 11 significant bits
with an unbounded exponent is below 2^-14, as the scalar forms do;
min/max flush only their inputs. Packed f16 still throws for f16
rounding other than nearest even.

On RDNA2 (gfx1031) f16/f64 denormal modes 0 and 2 flush the denominator
and numerator of v_div_fixup_f64 to a zero of the same sign and keep a
denormal quotient and result, as v_div_fixup_f32 does with the f32
field. The translation used them unflushed, so 0 / 2^-1074 gave 0
instead of the default NaN.

v_fma_mix_f32 used its f16 sources unflushed in every mode. On RDNA2
(gfx1031) f16 denormal modes 0 and 2 flush each f16 source to a zero
of its sign, whatever the f32 denormal field, so
v_fma_mix_f32 0, 0, 0x0001 (all f16) is 0 there instead of 2^-24.
