Measured on a PS5 (firmware 13.60):
- sceSslGetMemoryPoolStats returns 0x8095F007 for a null output, before
the id check, and 0x8095F006 for an unknown or terminated context,
zeroing the 32-byte output.
- sceHttp2GetMemoryPoolStats returns 0x817B1225 for a null output,
before the id check, and 0x817B1100 for an unknown or terminated
context, zeroing the 32-byte output.
- sceNetGetMemoryPoolStats checks the pool before the output, so an
unknown pool with a null output returns EBADF.

PS5 dumps carry no playgo-chunkdefs.xml (only sce_sys/playgo-scenario.json, which
lists no chunks), so the valid set fell back to chunk 0 and every query for another
chunk returned SCE_PLAYGO_ERROR_BAD_CHUNK_ID. A title that asks for all of its chunks
in one scePlayGoGetLocus call then never sees them as installed and waits forever.
Without definitions the chunk table is unknown and a dump is fully installed, so any
chunk id is accepted and reported as local. With playgo-chunkdefs.xml present,
validation is unchanged. scePlayGoGetChunkId still reports the known set.

Coherent (GLC/DLC) global loads were emitted as Volatile loads through
physical pointers. Volatile does not make another workgroup's stores
visible within the same dispatch, so a workgroup spinning on a flag
written by another one (decoupled look-back scans, as in RADV's
acceleration-structure build) never saw it on NVIDIA. Aligned coherent
dword reads now use OpAtomicLoad at device scope; the byte path keeps
the old reads for unaligned addresses.

VLC (PPSA85300) imports daemon (Wn6I3wVATUE) and fails to load because
no library exports it. Forking into the background is not supported,
so it throws if called. VLC 3.0 calls daemon only when its daemon
option is set, and the title starts libVLC with --ignore-config and
without --daemon.
A job's inputs were joined into one vector before decoding, copying every
input buffer at its stated size. PPSA36082's FMOD submits Opus run jobs
whose one input buffer states 0xFFFFFE74 bytes (a remaining size that
went below zero) ahead of a single packet, so each such job copied about
4 GiB and sceAjmBatchStart took about a second; the mixer missed its
deadline and the title pushed silence. A job with one input buffer now
decodes from that buffer in place, reading only the packets it decodes;
jobs with several input buffers are joined as before.

Drop the retry on <name>.prx after libs/<name>.prx fails. The test now
runs from its own directory holding libs/libSceFiber.prx, copied from
the libSceFiber output, so the single path resolves in the test too.

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.

Link libc, configure Windows unwinding for the test so its runtime_error
checks are caught, and run it from libSceFiber's output directory so
openHostModule finds the unpatched libSceFiber.prx next to the modules the
test already loads.

Return a host module handle for a loaded sysmodule id so callers can
sceKernelDlsym after sceSysmoduleLoadModule. Unknown or null inputs
throw like neighbouring internal load paths; unloaded ids return
0x805A1001. Unblocks Prospero Win past NID D8cuU4d72xM at load.
