2026-09-01 (Daemon Disqualification: Requiring eboot.bin & Filtering .self) (D304)

Analyzed hardware test logs (reports/hardware/injector-klog.txt lines 17-72):

1. Target Resolver Matched Auxiliary Daemon:
   • In Run #17, the game had not fully launched or was below PID 78.
   • The path heuristic (/app0/) matched /app0/webrtc_daemon.self (PID 78).
   • PT_ATTACH attached to PID 78 (ret=0), but because it is a restricted system daemon without userland heap capability, remote mmap returned 0xffffffffffffffff.
   • PT_DETACH executed cleanly with ret=0.
2. Analysis:
   • All retail PS4 and PS5 games have executable name eboot.bin, never .self or .elf.
   • Auxiliary background daemons mounted under /app0/ (like webrtc_daemon.self) must not be matched as retail games.
3. Remediation (src/injector/target.c):
   • Filter .self and .elf: Any binary path or comm containing .self or .elf is rejected immediately.
   • Strict Path Heuristic: Path matching requires both /app0/ (or /user/app/ / /mnt/sandbox/) AND eboot.bin.
   • System daemon checks are executed prior to path heuristics.
