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.

VLC (PPSA85300) fails to load on the missing getdtablesize import now that
readdir_r is in. Its only call is in a spawn child that never runs, and the
console's descriptor limit is unknown, so the export throws.

PS5MC (PPSA99420, Kodi 22) imports getpriority (miQ1wVwSexE) from
libkernel.prx, one reference, next to chflags in its import order.
Predicted stop once the imports ahead of it are covered (not a run):
FAIL: unresolved ELF import miQ1wVwSexE from libkernel.prx
The NID is computed with tools/nid_names.py and matches aerolib.
Follows FreeBSD 11.4 sys/kern/kern_resource.c sys_getpriority
(8c639945a44588f6cfdddfb057bb5aad88735da0) for the only guest process,
taken to run at nice 0 and to lead its own process group (as kill and
setsid already assume): PRIO_PROCESS and PRIO_PGRP with 0 or its pid,
and PRIO_USER with 0 or its uid 0, return 0; other ids give ESRCH and
an unknown which gives EINVAL. getpriority is a bare system call in
FreeBSD's libc (lib/libc/sys/Symbol.map), so errno is left unchanged
on success.

PS5MC (PPSA99420, Kodi 22) imports chflags (ixrw0h2tWuI) from
libkernel.prx, one reference. Predicted stop once the imports ahead of
it (pthread_getthreadid_np, sendfile, wcstok, pause, setrlimit and the
termios calls) are covered (not a run):
FAIL: unresolved ELF import ixrw0h2tWuI from libkernel.prx
The NID is computed with tools/nid_names.py and matches aerolib.
Follows FreeBSD 11.4 (8c639945a44588f6cfdddfb057bb5aad88735da0)
sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c kern_chflagsat and setfflags, and
sys/ufs/ufs/ufs_vnops.c ufs_setattr, for a root caller: the lookup
through the guest resolver gives EFAULT, ENOENT and ENOTDIR (also for a
file reached through a trailing slash or used as a directory), a bit
outside the 17 UFS flags of sys/sys/stat.h (VNOVAL included) gives
EOPNOTSUPP, and SF_SNAPSHOT gives EPERM, since the snapshot flag cannot
be toggled. No host keeps BSD file flags and stat reports st_flags 0,
so flags 0 succeed without touching the file and any other flag throws
with the flags named. UF_READONLY and the other Windows-attribute flags
are not mapped to FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY and its siblings: UFS stores
them without enforcing them, and on Windows the read-only attribute is
already the owner write bit of chmod.

(cherry picked from commit 16e5b7ccd04e6467a5a282b6cfc9271304f42244)
Windows 10 1903 deletes a file with open handles by moving it into
$Extend\$Deleted until the last handle closes, so the next snapshot of a
watched file that a title (or the test) deleted saw a new path, tried to
watch that directory's changes, got ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED and threw from
the watch thread, which aborts the process; the path change was also
reported as NOTE_RENAME next to NOTE_DELETE. A snapshot with a pending
delete or no links now reports NOTE_DELETE alone and drops the parent
directory watch instead of replacing it, as the file has no directory
to be renamed or removed from any more.
PS5CEMU-HAR (PPSA99360, ps5-payload-dev build, relinks with
--trap-sdk-syscall-stubs) imports pthread_setaffinity_np (5KWrg7-ZqvE)
from libkernel.prx. babyhuey's run with #3787 merged onto main e7c70a2d
(PR #3787, 2026-10-12T10:54:44Z) stops at it:
Windows: FAIL: unresolved ELF import 5KWrg7-ZqvE (pthread_setaffinity_np) from libkernel.prx
Linux: undefined symbol: 5KWrg7-ZqvE (pthread_setaffinity_np)
It follows FreeBSD 11.4 libthr thr_affinity.c (8c639945) over
kern_cpuset_setaffinity: another thread is looked up first (EINVAL for
null, ESRCH when unknown or finished, as _thr_find_thread without dead
threads), a size other than the 32-byte cpuset_t returns ERANGE, the
mask is clipped to sceKernelGetAvailableCpumask and an empty result
returns EDEADLK, as cpuset_setaffinity does. The affinity is stored on
the guest thread through scePthreadSetaffinity, for the caller and for
any live guest thread.

sceCoredumpAttachUserFile (5nc2gdLNsok) and
sceCoredumpAttachMemoryRegionAsUserFile (MEJ7tc7ThwM) get the
signatures of Orbital's db_types.json (cc408367) and SharpProspero's
KernelSystem.cs (5dfdb4b0): (uint32_t userValue, const char* path) and
(uint32_t userValue, const void* mem, size_t size, const char* name).
The handler is never invoked here, so both return
SCE_COREDUMP_ERROR_NOT_IN_COREDUMP_HANDLER (0x81180003, shadPS4
coredump_error.h e0a46675) and attach nothing; a null path or name and
a null, empty or wrapping region throw because the order of the
console's checks is unknown.

PPSA99058 and PPSA99420 import sceKernelGetCpuTemperature and sceKernelGetSocSensorTemperature and stop at start-up on main. Read the host CPU/package, board and NVMe sensors (hwmon/thermal on Linux, the ACPI thermal zones and the storage temperature property on Windows) and report an unsupported sensor with EINVAL.
ioctl() on a file, directory, pipe or character device threw "request
0x20006601 ... is not implemented" for FIOCLEX, and the same for
FIONCLEX, although the close-on-exec flag they change is already kept
for these descriptors and reported by fcntl(F_GETFD).
FreeBSD 11.4 handles both requests in kern_ioctl() for every descriptor,
before the request reaches the file's own ioctl, by changing the flag
F_GETFD reads. sys/kern/sys_generic.c, kern_ioctl():
case FIONCLEX:
fdp->fd_ofiles[fd].fde_flags &= ~UF_EXCLOSE;
goto out;
case FIOCLEX:
fdp->fd_ofiles[fd].fde_flags |= UF_EXCLOSE;
goto out;
sys/kern/kern_descrip.c, kern_fcntl():
case F_GETFD:
...
td->td_retval[0] =
(fde->fde_flags & UF_EXCLOSE) ? FD_CLOEXEC : 0;
Both requests now set or clear that flag and return 0. libuv before 1.44
sets close-on-exec this way on FreeBSD (uv__cloexec_ioctl).

PS5MC (PPSA99420, Kodi 22) imports clock_settime (d7nUj1LOdDU) from
libkernel.prx, one reference, after sigwaitinfo in its import order.
Predicted stop once the imports ahead of it are covered (not a run):
FAIL: unresolved ELF import d7nUj1LOdDU from libkernel.prx
The NID is computed with tools/nid_names.py and matches aerolib.
Follows FreeBSD 11.4 sys/kern/kern_time.c sys_clock_settime and
kern_clock_settime (8c639945a44588f6cfdddfb057bb5aad88735da0) for a
root caller: EFAULT for a null time (copyin), EINVAL for any clock but
CLOCK_REALTIME and for a negative tv_sec or a tv_nsec outside 0 to
999999999. A valid CLOCK_REALTIME request throws with the requested
time named, since the host clock must not be set and no guest clock
offset is kept.

XPSemu PPSA97358 imports both from libkernel.prx; with the imports ahead
of them covered, its predicted next stops (relink registry order, not an
observed run) are:
FAIL: unresolved ELF import KaK52lYTBIs from libkernel.prx (execv, 7 call sites)
FAIL: unresolved ELF import kdguLiAheLI from libkernel.prx (execve, 4 call sites)
Today the title stops earlier at the observed
FAIL: unresolved ELF import aRo9AhFUXcM from libkernel.prx (sigsetjmp, merged in #3486)
As for execvp (#2827), the process image cannot be replaced here, so both
throw with the execvp message pattern once FreeBSD 11's execve would start
loading the image (freebsd-src 8c639945, sys/kern/kern_exec.c
exec_copyin_args, do_execve, exec_check_permissions; lib/libc/gen/exec.c
execv passes environ). Before that they fail as FreeBSD does: EFAULT for a
null argument vector or path, ENOENT and ENOTDIR from the lookup as stat
reports it, EACCES for a path that is not a regular file. Paths of
PATH_MAX bytes or more and strings over ARG_MAX throw instead of guessing
the console's limits. The execv calls in XPSemu's sources run in a fork
child (net/tap.c), and its fork fails with ENOSYS (ZiZc3/XPSemu 8eec07b4,
ps5/compat/libc_missing.c, ps5/build-title.sh --defsym).
NIDs computed with tools/nid_names.py and confirmed in aerolib.

(cherry picked from commit 57f0fa37132bc6c78bc02282044a00e2db859484)
getsockopt and setsockopt on a libkernel socket knew four SOL_SOCKET options
(SO_REUSEADDR, SO_BROADCAST, SO_SNDBUF, SO_RCVBUF) and failed every other
one with ENOPROTOOPT. The Mound's EOS SDK reads SO_ERROR on two of its
sockets after a connect, which therefore always failed.
The SOL_SOCKET options now follow FreeBSD 11.4 sosetopt and sogetopt:
- SO_ERROR returns the pending error of the socket as a FreeBSD errno and
reports it once (Winsock does not clear it on read, so the library does).
- SO_TYPE, SO_ACCEPTCONN, SO_KEEPALIVE, SO_DONTROUTE, SO_OOBINLINE and
SO_LINGER are read from and set on the host socket; the boolean options
read back as their own bit, as FreeBSD returns so_options & option.
- SO_DEBUG, SO_USELOOPBACK, SO_REUSEPORT, SO_TIMESTAMP and SO_NOSIGPIPE stay
ENOPROTOOPT until a title needs one.
- A value is read from its first int and fails with EINVAL when shorter, a
getsockopt buffer is filled up to its length (sooptcopyin, sooptcopyout),
SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF below 1 fail with EINVAL, and SO_LINGER outside
0..65535 seconds fails with EDOM.
A connect on a non-blocking socket now fails with EINPROGRESS on Windows too
(it was EWOULDBLOCK, which a title waiting for the connection does not
expect).
