sceAgcDcbSetWorkloadStreamInactive and the three ACB workload builders
(sceAgcAcbSetWorkloadsActive, sceAgcAcbSetWorkloadComplete,
sceAgcAcbSetWorkloadStreamInactive) threw for every call, and
sceAgcDcbSetWorkloadsActive read the workload ids before it checked the
stream.
The prosper console oracle (mattias800/prosper df074498,
prosper/tests/data/console_oracle/agcbuild.golden.tsv lines 48-56 and
196-204) measured all six calls on a PS5 with three argument patterns
and no workload stream registered: each returned null and wrote nothing.
Pattern b passes stream 1 with the workload ids at address 2, so the
console checks the stream before it reads the ids; here that call read
address 2 and crashed.
The four builders now return null for a null command buffer or a stream
that is not registered, and still throw for a registered stream: the
packet a registered stream gets is not measured, KytyPS5 has no body for
them, and its IT_NOP layout for the DCB calls differs from the
SET_UCONFIG_REG, WRITE_DATA and SET_WORKLOAD sequence OpenAGC
(3c7e8072, src/agc_workload_packet.c) derives from the driver. The
signatures are OpenAGC's DCB ones (src/game_compat.c), which says the
ACB calls use the same driver builders. sceAgcDcbSetWorkloadsActive now
checks the stream before the ids, as OpenAGC does. Recorded in
docs/dev/debt/libSceAgc.md.
agc_commands gains testWorkloadStreams: the three measured patterns for
all six calls (null, buffer untouched), an exhausted and a null buffer,
and a registered stream that throws without touching the buffer. On
upstream/main it fails with "sceAgcDcbSetWorkloadStreamInactive not
implemented", and the DCB active pattern b alone segfaults reading
0x2.

A host import that leaves its range watched can resolve the write
protection of the imported pages without storing anything, as NVIDIA's
Linux driver does for every page. ImportWatched stamped those pages as a
possible CPU store (BlockMaybeWritten), and only a storage image tracked
by 64 KiB unit could clear the stamp, by comparing with a copy of the
guest bytes it was uploaded from. Since #3372 a fast-cleared upload
therefore reads its whole surface from guest memory wherever such an
import is possible, although nothing but that compare uses the copy.
ImportWatched now takes whether the import leaves its range watched. If
it does, the range is copied before the stores made so far are
collected, and after the import each page whose write protection was
resolved is compared with that copy. A page with other bytes is stamped
as a CPU store. A page with the same bytes keeps only the CPU-side stamp
the label rules read, so UnchangedSince holds for it for every consumer:
storage images tracked by layer, snapshots and caches as well.
If it does not (a host-pointer import on a device whose imports are
compared, a direct import on Windows), nothing is copied or compared:
the pages resolved in the window get the CPU-side stamp and the range
leaves the watch before the tracker is unlocked. Where host-pointer and
dma-buf imports differ in this, the dma-buf import that follows a failed
host-pointer import is a window of its own, so each window knows its
kind before it starts.
BlockMaybeWritten, the written-stamp table, WatchedImportsStampPages and
the unit compare in StorageTexture::Refresh are gone. The fast-clear
upload skips the guest-byte copy whenever its range is watched, as
before #3372.
Cult of the Lamb (PPSA06465) imports libSceContentSearch, including
sceContentSearchGetContentLastUpdateId, OpenMetadataByContentId,
GetTotalContentSize and GetNumOfContent (import audit in #2686), which
were declared without parameters and threw.
Give the nine pending calls the signatures of AlexAltea/orbital
db_types.json (cc408367, lines 555-569) and SharpProspero
Interop/Content/ContentSearch.cs (5dfdb4b0), and implement the content
library the host has, which is empty:
- GetNumOfContent, GetTotalContentSize and SearchContent report 0 rows
and 0 bytes, GetContentLastUpdateId and the search calls report update
id 0. A search limit above 92 returns 0x809D100A and every call before
Init returns 0x809D1001, both from SharpProspero.
- Filters and sort conditions use SharpProspero's layouts (added to
SceTypes.hpp with size checks) and are checked against its enums;
unknown values, null outputs and null arrays with a length throw.
- OpenMetadata and OpenMetadataByContentId throw, as no source gives the
error for content that is not in the library, so no metadata id is
handed out and CloseMetadata, GetMetadataFieldInfo and
GetMetadataValue throw too.
The update id value, the argument errors and the check order are
recorded in TechnicalDebt. The four ContentSearch calls leave the
unimplemented-imports test, and guest_content_search covers the library.
dup and dup2 carry the random device over to the new descriptor, and
select reports /dev/random and /dev/urandom ready, as the select entry
already says.

Preserve the leading field and bytes after the 40-byte legacy version record for the values measured in four PS5 firmware 13.42 hardware runs. Keep the emulator version policy unchanged and leave the separately proposed Prospero correction out of scope.
AI-assisted; regression tests are based on guarded hardware measurements.
dup and dup2 of a Windows directory descriptor threw. FreeBSD's
kern_dup makes both descriptors refer to one open file, so they share
the read position; the duplicate now points at the same DirectoryState,
which getdents and lseek go through, and keeps it after the original
is closed.

image_sample_c on an 8-bit UNORM T# returns 0 for every compare
function on gfx1035, as on 8-bit sRGB (measured on the hardware oracle
in the review of #3438), but the emulated comparison still compared the
red channel. 8, 8_8 and 8_8_8_8 UNORM now return 0 like 8-bit sRGB.
Every texel comparison of those formats is 0, so a bilinear cube
without DISABLE_CUBE_WRAP and an anisotropic S# cannot change the
result; both are accepted for them, as the cube already was for 8-bit
sRGB. Other formats keep both refusals.
The test rows that check real comparisons move to 16_16 UNORM.
collate<char>::do_transform gave the result std::string a capacity of
exactly its length and threw for results of 4095 characters or more.
The console's libc.prx grows the string from its inline capacity of 15
to length | 15, so a 26-character result has capacity 31 and a 32-byte
allocation. Once capacity + 1 reaches 0x1000 bytes it takes the
over-aligned large allocation that the guest's inlined deallocation
expects: operator new(bytes + 0x27), the data aligned to 32 bytes and
the raw pointer stored just before it. This is the scheme of
Dinkumware's basic_string (_Newsize | _ALLOC_MASK) and of its
_Allocate in <xmemory0> (_BIG_ALLOCATION_THRESHOLD 4096,
_BIG_ALLOCATION_ALIGNMENT 32, _NON_USER_SIZE sizeof(void*) + 31),
including its bad_alloc when bytes + 0x27 would wrap.
do_transform now uses that capacity and allocation; the throw for long
results is gone. The debt entry in docs/dev/debt/libc.md now records
the capacity and large storage as unverified on hardware. guest_collate
checks the capacity and allocation size of a 26-character result, the
last small result (4079 characters, a 4080-byte block) and the first
large one (4080 characters, capacity 4095, a 4096 + 0x27-byte block
with the data aligned to 32 and the raw pointer before it). With main's
LocaleSupport.cpp it aborts at the allocation-size check of the
26-character result (lastSize 27 instead of 32).

Follow FreeBSD sys_setregid and root identity model: accept real and effective group id 0 or -1 (unchanged) and change nothing; any other id throws. Update GuestCredentials test and TechnicalDebt.
Imported by the Share plugin of Hollow Knight: Silksong (PPSA12544).
Takes the extended parameter and request id like
sceShareCaptureScreenshotExtended, as KytyPS5 does: nothing is
captured, so it stores the invalid request id -1 when the pointer is
not null and returns NOT_SUPPORTED.

Throw a guest std::system_error for the Dinkumware _Cpp_error codes,
as in VC12 and microsoft/STL thread0.cpp: the error_code holds the
FreeBSD errno and a guest generic error category modelled in libc, and
what() is the table message followed by the category message. Codes
outside the table throw std::out_of_range. The system_error copy
constructor and assignment now copy the error_code too.

Export getopt (VUtibKJCt1o) and getopt_long (8VVXJxB5nlk) from
libSceLibcInternal together with the guest variables optind
(zCnSJWp-Qj8), optarg (zG0BNJOZdm4), opterr (yaFXXViLWPw), optopt
(FwzVaZ8Vnus) and optreset (CZNm+oNmB-I). The NIDs were computed with
tools/nid_names.py and all seven are in aerolib; the PS5 payload SDK
f5d40f02 lists the functions and the five objects in
sce_stubs/libSceLibcInternal.c.
Titles (predicted stops from registry order, not observed runs):
- XPSemu PPSA97358, after execv/execve, the signal waits, the
credential setters, mlockall and tcsendbreak:
"FAIL: unresolved ELF import VUtibKJCt1o from libSceLibcInternal.prx"
(getopt idx 204, 10 call sites from 0xF6C23D), then optind (207),
optreset (208), optarg (209).
- RetroArch PPSA99169: getopt_long (idx 554, call sites 0xD2FC0C,
0xD3002A), optind (553), optarg (555).
Behaviour follows FreeBSD release/11.4.0 8c639945: getopt is
lib/libc/stdlib/getopt.c (no permutation, GNU "::" optional argument,
lone "-" as an option when listed), getopt_long is getopt_internal
from lib/libc/stdlib/getopt_long.c with GNU_COMPATIBLE (permutation,
POSIXLY_CORRECT read through the guest getenv on the first call and on
optreset, "+" and "-" prefixes, "W;", optind 0 as a reset, abbreviation
and ambiguity rules and the GNU warning texts). Warnings are written to
the guest stderr stream as "<__progname>: <message>", as warnx does.
The struct option layout and argument kinds are include/getopt.h.
The code lives in libSceLibcInternal because __progname is a libkernel
export that libc cannot link.
A null getopt option string, a null argument vector or argument, a
negative optind and an optind moved inside a pending permutation throw
where FreeBSD faults. getopt_long_only is not exported.
guest_getopt runs the FreeBSD getopt_test cases (contrib/netbsd-tests
t_getopt.sh with the h_getopt and h_getopt_long result format) plus
grouped and optional arguments, "--", permutation order, "+" and "-"
prefixes, optreset and optind 0 restarts, POSIXLY_CORRECT, all three
long argument kinds, abbreviations, ambiguity, flag pointers, "W;",
optopt with opterr 0 and the exact stderr text.

(cherry picked from commit a2740166d93920c301e1add23ceea762b4acad27)
Guest rwlocks were a host std::shared_timed_mutex. On Linux that is a
glibc rwlock, which prefers readers: a reader is let in while a writer
is blocked, so a writer waiting on a lock that readers keep taking in
overlapping turns never gets it (a probe with four readers each holding
the lock for 4 ms still had scePthreadRwlockWrlock waiting after 5 s,
with 4924 read acquisitions meanwhile), and tryrdlock succeeds while a
writer waits.
FreeBSD 11.4 libthr gives waiting writers precedence. A rwlock starts
without URWLOCK_PREFER_READER (rwlock_init() callocs it), and
lib/libthr/thread/thr_umtx.h, _thr_rwlock_tryrdlock(), refuses a reader
while a writer waits:
if ((flags & URWLOCK_PREFER_READER) != 0 ||
(rwlock->rw_flags & URWLOCK_PREFER_READER) != 0)
wrflags = URWLOCK_WRITE_OWNER;
else
wrflags = URWLOCK_WRITE_OWNER | URWLOCK_WRITE_WAITERS;
as does do_rw_rdlock() in sys/kern/kern_umtx.c for the blocking wait.
The only exception is a thread that already holds a read lock, so that a
recursive read cannot deadlock (lib/libthr/thread/thr_rwlock.c,
rwlock_rdlock_common()):
if (curthread->rdlock_count) {
...
flags = URWLOCK_PREFER_READER;
The rwlock is now a mutex and condition with a count of waiting writers:
a reader waits while a writer holds the lock or, unless the thread
already holds a read lock, while a writer waits; a timed writer that
gives up wakes the readers it held back. The TechnicalDebt note about
locking guest rwlocks once for winpthreads no longer applies to them.

send, sendto, sendmsg, recv, recvfrom and recvmsg failed with EOPNOTSUPP
for MSG_DONTWAIT (0x80), so code that polls a blocking socket with it
got an error on every call instead of its data or EWOULDBLOCK.
FreeBSD 11.4 defines the flag in sys/sys/socket.h:
#define MSG_DONTWAIT 0x80 /* this message should be nonblocking */
and soreceive_generic() (sys/kern/uipc_socket.c) treats it as a
non-blocking socket for that one call:
if ((so->so_state & SS_NBIO) ||
(flags & (MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_NBIO))) {
SOCKBUF_UNLOCK(&so->so_rcv);
error = EWOULDBLOCK;
goto release;
On Linux and macOS the flag now maps to the host's MSG_DONTWAIT, next to
MSG_PEEK on a receive and MSG_NOSIGNAL on a send. Winsock has no
per-call non-blocking flag, so Windows keeps failing with EOPNOTSUPP
for it; TechnicalDebt records that. Other flags still fail with
EOPNOTSUPP.

ProsperoRadio (PPSA99001) stops at 33.7 s on Windows, with #3649
applied so that it gets past poll, on the throw from #3840:
what(): fcntl: record locks are not implemented on Windows, command=12, fd=3
F_GETLK, F_SETLK, F_SETLKW and the F_OGETLK, F_OSETLK and F_OSETLKW
forms now follow FreeBSD 11.4's kern_fcntl and lf_advlockasync
(8c639945): an SEEK_CUR start is resolved against the descriptor offset
(EOVERFLOW past OFF_MAX), F_RDLCK needs read access and F_WRLCK write
access (EBADF), another type is EINVAL, and the range is checked against
the file size for SEEK_END (EINVAL for a negative start or an unknown
whence, EOVERFLOW past OFF_MAX). The guest is one process, and
lf_blocks never lets locks of one owner conflict, so whichever
descriptor or thread asks, F_SETLK and F_SETLKW succeed without waiting
and F_GETLK reports F_UNLCK, as on the console. Nothing is held on the
host: Windows byte-range locks are mandatory and would fail the guest's
own reads and writes through other descriptors. A lock from the end of
a directory throws.

C17 7.22.1.3 and 7.29.4.1.1 interpret NAN(n-char-sequence) as a quiet
NaN. With MinGW-w64, std::strtod, strtof and strtold are mingw-w64's
gdtoa functions, which copy the hex digits into the significand
without the quiet bit, and for long double without the x87 integer
bit: strtod("nan(0x123)") returned the signaling NaN
0x7ff0000000000123 and strtold a pseudo-NaN. A payload whose only set
bit is the implicit or x87 integer bit gave infinity:
strtof("nan(0x800000)"), strtod("nan(0x10000000000000)") and
strtold("nan(0x8000000000000000)") returned +inf. glibc returns quiet
NaNs that keep the payload.
C17 7.12.11.2p2 makes nan("n-char-sequence") equivalent to
strtod("NAN(n-char-sequence)", NULL), and nan and nanf already return
the console's fixed quiet NaNs, ignoring the tag. ParseFloat, which
strtod, strtof, strtold, atof and the wide variants share, now returns
the same values, 0x7ff8000000000000 and 0x7fc00000, negated after a
minus sign, on Windows and Linux. strtold returns the x87 default
quiet NaN, since no console nanl was observed.
The title-module variants of sceKernelGetModuleList and
sceKernelGetModuleInfo, following shadPS4: the list leaves out system
libraries and the info call answers EPERM for one. A system library is
a loaded .prx image that is not a relinked title module.
NHL 27 (PPSA34063) imports both and fails to load without them.

qsort was a heapsort. It sorted correctly, but elements that compare
equal ended in a different order from FreeBSD's Bentley-McIlroy qsort,
in 18947 of 20000 random arrays with repeated keys, and below 7
elements, where FreeBSD's insertion sort keeps equal elements in
place, a heapsort does not. qsort now follows FreeBSD 11 qsort.c,
including its comparator call sequence.

PS4 executables keep their relocated read-only data, GOT and init/fini
arrays in a PT_SCE_RELRO segment outside every PT_LOAD. The segment filter
dropped it, so Windows and macOS output stopped at the first relocation
into it, and Linux output placed the relinker's extra block over its
addresses without an error. The ELF reader now reports such a segment as a
read-write PT_LOAD. A PT_SCE_RELRO inside a PT_LOAD keeps being skipped,
and one that partially overlaps a PT_LOAD throws.
