lstat of a Windows symbolic link threw, although symlink creates links
with relative targets on Windows and readlink reads them. Report such a
link as S_IFLNK with its own identity and times and the length of its
target as st_size, through the reparse reader readlink already used,
now shared from libkernel. Links with absolute targets, junctions and
other reparse points still throw, as for readlink.
Guest descriptors are host C runtime descriptors. Closing descriptor 0, 1
or 2 closed the host process's standard stream, and the runtime then gave
that number to the next file opened anywhere in the process, including
files libkernel opens itself, such as the APR reader's. The title's next
close of the same number closed that file mid-read.
close and sceKernelClose now fail with EBADF for descriptors 0 to 2 that
were open when libkernel loaded, and leave them open. A standard
descriptor that was not open at load can still be opened and closed by
the guest.
PPSA21703 calls sceKernelClose(0) repeatedly while loading asset
bundles, which made APR reads return 0 or a part of the requested bytes
and raised UCRT invalid parameter reports from close.

Follow FreeBSD 11's sys_mincore by rounding unaligned address down to page boundary rather than returning EINVAL. Update guest memory test and document unmodeled residency/referenced/modified bits in libkernel technical debt.
Implement mincore (+hFjyohmOU0) in libkernel following FreeBSD 11's sys_mincore (sys/vm/vm_mmap.c). Validate page alignment, return EFAULT for null vector, check range bounds and residency via sceKernelVirtualQuery, and report MINCORE_INCORE (1) for resident pages. Required by Java 25 LAN / DNS (PPSA99869).
Titles run natively, so a host CPU without an extension that compiled Zen 2 code uses faults with an illegal instruction deep inside a title (#3719: SHLX, BMI2). libkernel now reads CPUID and XCR0 when it loads on Linux and Windows, logs the host CPU's extensions and throws, naming the CPU and the missing extensions, before any title code runs.
select now checks pipe descriptors on Windows with the readiness test poll
already uses, so a pipe next to a libSceNet socket no longer throws.
RetroArch (PPSA99169) selects on libmicrohttpd's wake-up pipe beside its
listening socket. guest_select now runs on Windows too.

XPSemu (PPSA97358) queries RLIMIT_NOFILE at start-up in QEMU's
os_setup_limits and stopped on the unsupported resource. It reports the
descriptor count after which AnyPS5 fails with EMFILE: the C runtime's
8192 low-level descriptors on Windows and the host limit on Linux.

Charge each recorded protection ranges 2 MiB granules to the gpu
pool when the range has GPU-access protection bits and to the cpu
pool otherwise, so the available counts reflect committed usage
instead of staying at the 2048-entry budget. Follows KytyPS5s
counting model.
fstat on a guest socket descriptor passed the guest number to the host,
which has no such descriptor, and threw ("FillFileStat: fstat failed for
fd 268435460"); sceKernelFstat returned EBADF. FreeBSD fills the stat
buffer for a socket through soo_stat (sys/kern/sys_socket.c):
bzero((caddr_t)ub, sizeof (*ub));
ub->st_mode = S_IFSOCK;
...
if ((sb->sb_state & SBS_CANTRCVMORE) == 0 || sbavail(sb))
ub->st_mode |= S_IRUSR | S_IRGRP | S_IROTH;
ub->st_size = sbavail(sb) - sb->sb_ctl;
...
if ((sb->sb_state & SBS_CANTSENDMORE) == 0)
ub->st_mode |= S_IWUSR | S_IWGRP | S_IWOTH;
and pru_sense_null (sys/kern/uipc_socket.c) adds
st_blksize = so->so_snd.sb_hiwat.
fstat and sceKernelFstat now answer a guest socket from the socket
table: S_IFSOCK, the read bits until the receive side is shut down and
drained, the write bits until the send side is shut down, st_size from
the bytes queued and st_blksize from the send buffer size, other fields
zero. shutdown records which side it closed. A closed socket descriptor
returns EBADF. The differences from the console (peer shutdown, the
host's FIONREAD and SO_SNDBUF, socketpair identity) are listed in
TechnicalDebt.md.

PPSA50011 imports setpriority and stops at start-up once getpriority is implemented. Accept PRIO_PROCESS, PRIO_PGRP and PRIO_USER for the guest's own process and fail with ESRCH for any other id and EINVAL for any other which, leaving errno unchanged on success like FreeBSD's libc; the value is not applied, since the guest nice is not the host's scheduling class.
The mimalloc in PS5MC (PPSA99420) reads vm.overcommit at start-up and
stopped on the unsupported name. It reports FreeBSD's default, 0.

The dolphin_libretro core of RetroArch (PPSA99169) reads {CTL_HW,
HW_REALMEM} as the machine's memory size and stopped on the unsupported
MIB. It reports the same value as hw.physmem.

Map fixed private anonymous ranges through the existing guest arena. Preserve occupied ranges for MAP_EXCL and use FreeBSD 11.4 errors.
Cover replacement, exclusivity, range validation, rounding, and memory access.
