Attachment for the Method: for each local title whose executable imports
Result: 25 direct calls in 20 titles, all with Counted with the script below (sha256 Script (the title folders and the objdump path are local arguments): #!/usr/bin/env python3
"""Count the call sites of imported functions in title executables and read argument registers.
Input: a directory ROOT with one run folder per title, PPSA<id>_r*/, each holding
app.registry.json (import table written by the relinker; every import lists the addresses
of its call sites) and in/eboot.elf (the title's executable as ELF). Per title the registry
with the most imports that have call sites is used (ties: the newest file).
Only the title's own executable is read: libraries / extra module files, function pointers and
code that is only reached through data are not seen.
What is counted per title and function (NAME = import name, NID computed from the name):
* call sites: the registry addresses whose first bytes are FF 25 (PLT stub, jmp [rip+got]).
* direct calls: E8 rel32 instructions in the executable segments whose target is such a stub.
* tail jumps: E9 rel32 instructions whose target is such a stub. They are listed and counted
separately and are NOT direct calls.
* calls to a jump stub: E8 rel32 whose target is one of those tail-jump instructions
(a thunk that forwards to the import). Listed and counted separately, not direct calls.
* non-stub registry call sites: registry addresses that are not a stub start (FF 15 call
[rip+got], 48 8B / 4C 8B mov reg,[rip+got], anything else, or an address outside the file).
Per title and function with address and instruction kind. They are not scanned for calls.
Matches are byte patterns in the executable segments, no control-flow recovery: an E8 inside an
instruction or data can only be a false hit if its target happens to be a stub (not checked).
Argument value (optional, --arg NAME=REG, REG one of rdi rsi rdx rcx r8 r9; the 32/16/8-bit
names are accepted and mean the same register): for every direct call the 64..48 bytes before it
are decoded with objdump (Intel syntax), once for every start offset in that range.
* a decoding is used only if the call address is decoded as an instruction start; if no start
offset gives that, the site is reported as 'desync';
* going backwards from the call, the last instruction that writes REG decides: the first operand
is REG or one of its sub-registers (mov, lea, movzx, pop, adc, rol, bswap, cmov, ...),
an implicit writer (rep/movs/lods/stos/cmps/scas/ins/outs, cdq/cqo/cwd, mul/div/idiv and the
one-operand imul for rdx, cpuid, rdtsc(p), rdmsr, rdpmc, xgetbv, syscall, cmpxchg8b/16b),
xchg/xadd/cmpxchg that name REG, or a 'call' (clobbers all argument registers);
cmp, test, push, bt and nop only read;
* 'xor R,R' (R the 32- or 64-bit register) = 0; 'mov R,imm' (32- or 64-bit register) = imm;
every other writer, and any write to a 16/8-bit part, = 'computed' (not constant);
* a branch whose target lies between the last writer and the call, or an unconditional
jmp / ret between them, = 'computed' (the writer may not be on the path to the call);
* no writer in the window = 'unreadable' (not constant: set before the window or by the caller);
* if the start offsets give different answers the site is 'ambiguous' (the answers are listed in
the site line). With --reach-neutral an 'unreadable' answer of a shorter window is ignored when
a longer window reads a value (it only means that the writer lies beyond that window's reach);
all other disagreements stay 'ambiguous'.
Both 'computed' and 'unreadable' and 'ambiguous' mean "not a constant" in the sums; they are kept
apart so that a reader can see why. Window limits: a writer more than ~48 bytes back is not seen,
values that flow through memory or a callee-saved register are not followed, conditional moves
and branches taking different values on different paths are reported as 'computed'.
Nothing is executed; only counts, addresses and classifications are printed.
usage: anhang_zaehlen.py ROOT OBJDUMP NAME[,NAME...] OUT [--arg NAME=REG ...] [--titles FILE]
OBJDUMP is the objdump command (GNU binutils, x86-64); 'wsl objdump' is accepted, paths are then
converted to /mnt/<drive>/... . --titles FILE restricts the titles (PPSA<digits> found in FILE).
Output (OUT and stdout summary): one line per site "title | function | address | kind | value",
the non-stub list, and one summary line per function.

What
Adds one entry to the libSceNet technical debt: every direct call to
sceNetGetSockInfoin the local titles whose executables import it passes the constant 0 asflags(disassembly of each direct call), so none of them reaches theEINVALthat other bits than 0x40 get here, or passes 0x40; what a console returns for otherflagsbits is not measured. The per-title list behind this is attached as a comment. No code or test changes.Tested
