282 of 342 libraries answered only zero - 24,532 symbols, not one refusal among them. The same loader's address census reports ~35,000 of ~35,000 present.
Every call passes nothing, so a function taking an out-pointer cannot
succeed and one taking a handle cannot operate. The correct answer for
nearly all of them is a refusal, and refusing is exactly what a generic
stub cannot do. COMPATIBILITY.md argued
presence-versus-behaviour in prose from the day it was written; it now
carries the measurement, with the caveats that matter - one loader, no
hardware, and a proportion rather than any individual record.
The flag sweep answered orbistoun's first question, negatively and definitely
Four queries at offset 0 with flags 0, 1, 2, 4. All
returned 0, all wrote byte-identical
buffers, so no first-differing-byte record was emitted:
offset 0 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 start = 0
offset 8 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 length = 0x10000
offset 16 03 type = 3
shadPS4 ignores the argument. That is worth having: their guest makes 87.6 million of these calls, and anything inferred from agreeing with this emulator is inferred from a constant.
Two things noticed and not reconciled. 130-layout's own
comment records "four experiments on the emulator side went into
establishing that it writes 24 bytes" - this writes 17.
Both are emulator observations and neither is authority. And a 64 KiB
length for the first extent is not plausibly a console's.
And a correction of framing rather than fact
The facility scheme was sent to orbistoun as a discovery.
OUTPUT.md has described error-shaped as
"another facility, or an errno returned directly" since it was written,
and classify() has hardcoded 0x8002 as the
privileged one just as long. The two-tier distinction was in our
own vocabulary the whole time. What the sweep produced that is
new is the mapping and the errno-correctness evidence, not the idea.
Said so on the bridge, because "they discovered a structure" and "they
measured one their format already assumed" support different confidence
levels, and they are writing to a knowledge base off these entries.
