psp2swu.self

By looking this reference (http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch4.eheader.html) seems that the self data is written for 32 bit, instead of 64 as i should expect. anybody knows why?

Well the question is for sure long time answered but the Vita CPU is a 32 bit one.

Authentication ID

Offset 0x80 in the SELF header. SceWebCore has 0x8000 set; the only system app with that flag set.

sceAppMgrConvertVs0UserDrivePath checks the authentication id to limit mount points.

0x2800000000008003 seen used by SceWebCore can only access vs0:data/external/cert/ and vs0:data/external/webcore/

0x2800000000008004 seen used by games and 0x210000101CD20007 seen used by PSM can only access vs0:data/external and vs0:sys/external

Relocations

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 Relocation Type
0x4 0x4 Long entry: Addend
0x4 0x4 Short entry: 0-19 = Bits 10-29 of offset, 20-31 = addend
0x8 0x4 Long entry: Offset

Relocations can be of two types: 8 byte "short" entries or 12 byte "long" entries. The relocation code is the same as ARM ELF format.


Segment start = Buffer address of segment indexed at "Patch segment"

Symbol start = Buffer address of segment indexed at "Symbol segment"

Address to patch = segment start + offset

P = address to patch

S = "Symbol segment" == 15 ? 0 : symbol start

A = addend

Relocation Type

Start End Description
0 3 Short entry if set
4 7 Symbol segment
8 15 Relocation code
16 19 Patch segment
20 27 Long entry: Optional relocation code 2
28 31 Long entry: Optional distance 2
20 31 Short entry: Lower 12 bits of offset

Supported Relocation Codes (1.69)

Code Description
0 R_ARM_NONE
2 R_ARM_ABS32
3 R_ARM_REL32
10 R_ARM_THM_CALL
28 R_ARM_CALL
29 R_ARM_JUMP24
38 R_ARM_TARGET1 (same as R_ARM_ABS32)
40 R_ARM_V4BX (same as R_ARM_NONE)
41 R_ARM_TARGET2 (same as R_ARM_REL32)
42 R_ARM_PREL31
43 R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC
44 R_ARM_MOVT_ABS
47 R_ARM_THM_MOVW_ABS_NC
48 R_ARM_THM_MOVT_ABS
