Detailed Description

Macro Definition Documentation

SCE_KERNEL_MAX_MODULE_SEGMENT

#define SCE_KERNEL_MAX_MODULE_SEGMENT   (4)

Typedef Documentation

SceKernelRebootBeforeForKernel

typedef s32(* SceKernelRebootBeforeForKernel) (void *arg1, s32 arg2, s32 arg3, s32 arg4)

Reboot preparation functions.

SceKernelRebootPhaseForKernel

typedef s32(* SceKernelRebootPhaseForKernel) (s32 arg1, void *arg2, s32 arg3, s32 arg4)

SceLibraryEntryTable

typedef struct SceLibraryEntryTable SceLibraryEntryTable

Defines a library and its exported functions and variables.

Use the len member to determine the real size of the table (size = len * 4).

SceLibraryStubTable

typedef struct SceLibraryStubTable SceLibraryStubTable

Specifies a library and a set of imports from that library.

Use the len member to determine the real size of the table (size = len * 4).

SceLoadCoreExecFileInfo

typedef struct SceLoadCoreExecFileInfo SceLoadCoreExecFileInfo

SceModule

typedef struct SceModule SceModule

Describes a loaded module in memory.

This structure could change in future firmware revisions.

Enumeration Type Documentation

SceModuleAttribute

enum SceModuleAttribute

Module type attributes.

Enumerator
SCE_MODULE_ATTR_NONE	No module attributes.
SCE_MODULE_ATTR_CANT_STOP	Resident module - stays in memory. You cannot unload such a module.
SCE_MODULE_ATTR_EXCLUSIVE_LOAD	Only one instance of the module (one version) can be loaded into the system. If you want to load another version of that module, you have to delete the loaded version first.
SCE_MODULE_ATTR_EXCLUSIVE_START	Only one instance of the module (one version) can be started. If you want to start another version of that module, you have to stop the currently running version first.

SceModulePrivilegeLevel

enum SceModulePrivilegeLevel

Module Privilege Levels - These levels define the permissions a module can have.

Enumerator
SCE_MODULE_USER	Lowest permission.
SCE_MODULE_MS	POPS/Demo.
SCE_MODULE_USB_WLAN	Module Gamesharing.
SCE_MODULE_APP	Application module.
SCE_MODULE_VSH	VSH module.
SCE_MODULE_KERNEL	Highest permission.
SCE_MODULE_KIRK_MEMLMD_LIB	The module uses KIRK's memlmd resident library.
SCE_MODULE_KIRK_SEMAPHORE_LIB	The module uses KIRK's semaphore resident library.

Function Documentation

sceKernelCheckExecFile()

int sceKernelCheckExecFile	(	void *	buf,
		SceLoadCoreExecFileInfo *	execInfo )

Check an executable file.

This contains scanning its ELF header and ~PSP header (if it has one) and filling the execInfo structure with basic information, like the ELF type, segment information, the size of the executable. The file is also uncompressed, if it was compressed before.

Parameters

buf	Pointer to the file's contents.
execInfo	Pointer to the executionInfo belonging to that executable.

Returns

0 on success.

sceKernelCheckPspConfig()

int sceKernelCheckPspConfig	(	void *	buf,
		int	size,
		int	flag )

sceKernelFindModuleByAddress()

SceModule * sceKernelFindModuleByAddress

(

unsigned int

addr

)

Find a module from an address.

Parameters

addr	- Address somewhere within the module.

Returns

Pointer to the SceModule structure if found, otherwise NULL.

sceKernelFindModuleByName()

SceModule * sceKernelFindModuleByName

(

const char *

modname

)

Find a module by it's name.

Parameters

modname

- The name of the module.

Returns

Pointer to the SceModule structure if found, otherwise NULL.

sceKernelFindModuleByUID()

SceModule * sceKernelFindModuleByUID

(

SceUID

modid

)

Find a module by it's UID.

Parameters

modid

- The UID of the module.

Returns

Pointer to the SceModule structure if found, otherwise NULL.

Referenced by pspSdkFixupImports(), and pspSdkQueryModuleInfoV1().

sceKernelGetModuleIdListForKernel()

int sceKernelGetModuleIdListForKernel	(	SceUID *	mod_id_list,
		u32	size,
		u32 *	mod_count,
		u32	user_mods_only )

Receive a list of UIDs of loaded modules.

Parameters

mod_id_list	Pointer to a SceUID array which will receive the UIDs of the loaded modules.
size	Size of mod_id_list. Specifies the number of entries that can be stored into mod_id_list.
mod_count	A pointer which will receive the total number of loaded modules.
user_mods_only	Set to 1 to only receive UIDs from user mode modules. Set to 0 to receive UIDs from all loaded modules.

Returns

0 on success.

sceKernelIcacheClearAll()

void sceKernelIcacheClearAll

(

void

)

Invalidate the CPU's instruction cache.

sceKernelModuleCount()

int sceKernelModuleCount

(

void

)

Return the count of loaded modules.

Returns

The count of loaded modules.

Referenced by pspSdkGetModuleIdList().

sceKernelProbeExecutableObject()

int sceKernelProbeExecutableObject	(	void *	buf,
		SceLoadCoreExecFileInfo *	execInfo )

Probe an executable file.

This contains calculating the sizes for the three segments TEXT, DATA and BSS, filling the execInfo structure with information about the location and sizes of the resident/stub library entry tables.

Furthermore, it is checked whether the executable has valid API type or not.

Parameters

buf	Pointer to the file's contents.
execInfo	Pointer to the executionInfo belonging to that executable.

Returns

0 on success.
