Mainly used for adding guard pages around stack.
 +
 
 +
Source range gets reprotected to --- (it can no longer be accessed), and bit0 is set in the source [[#MemoryAttribute]].

[1.0.0] This could be used to map into either the Alias Region or the Stack region.

[2.0.0+] This can only be used to map into the Stack region.

Code can get the range of the Alias region from [[#GetInfo]] id0=2,3, and on 2.0.0+ the range of the Stack region via [[#GetInfo]] id0=14, 15 (on 1.0.0, the Stack region had hardcoded limits).
 +
 
 +
When mapped into the Alias region, the mapped memory will have state 0x482907.

If the handle is a Process, it will clear the signaled state (which is set when the process changes [[#ProcessState]].

If ReplyTargetSessionHandle is not zero, a reply from the TLS will be sent to that session.
 +
Then it will wait until either of the passed sessions has an incoming message, is closed, a passed port has an incoming connection, or the timeout expires.
 +
If there is an incoming message, it is copied to the TLS.
 +
 
 +
If ReplyTargetSessionHandle is zero, the TLS should contain a blank message. If this message has a C descriptor, the buffer it points to will be used as the pointer buffer. See [[IPC_Marshalling#IPC_buffers]]. Note that a pointer buffer cannot be specified if ReplyTargetSessionHandle is not zero.
 +
 
 +
After being validated, passed handles will be enumerated in order; even if a session has been closed, if one that appears earlier in the list has an incoming message, it will take priority and a result code of 0x0 will be returned.
 +
 
 +
=== Result codes ===
 +
'''0x0:''' Success. Either a session has an incoming message or a port has an incoming connection. HandleIndex is set appropriately.
 +
 
 +
'''0xea01:''' Timeout. No handles were signalled before the timeout expired. HandleIndex is not updated.
 +
 
 +
'''0xf601:''' Port remote dead. One of the sessions has been closed. HandleIndex is set appropriately.

Maps the backing memory for a CodeMemory object into the current process.

For [[#CodeMemoryOperation|MapOwner]], memory permission must be RW-.
 +
 
 +
For [[#CodeMemoryOperation|MapSlave]], memory permission must be R-- or R-X.
 +
 
 +
Operations [[#CodeMemoryOperation|UnmapOwner/UnmapSlave]] unmap memory that was previously mapped this way.
 +
 
 +
This allows one "secure JIT" process to map the code memory as RW-, and the other "slave" process to map it R-X.
 +
 
 +
[5.0.0+] Error 0xE401 is now returned when the process owner of the Code memory object is the same as the current process.

Read/write IO registers with a hardcoded whitelist. Input address is physical-address and must be aligned to 4.
 +
 
 +
rw_mask is 0 for reading and 0xffffffff for writing. You can also write individual bits by using a mask value.
 +
 
 +
You can only write to registers inside physical pages 0x70019000 (MC), 0x7001C000 (MC0), 0x7001D000 (MC1), and they all share the same whitelist.
 +
 
 +
The whitelist is same for writing as for reading.
 +
 
 +
The whitelist is:
 +
 
 +
0x054, 0x090, 0x094, 0x098, 0x09c, 0x0a0, 0x0a4, 0x0a8, 0x0ac, 0x0b0, 0x0b4, 0x0b8, 0x0bc, 0x0c0, 0x0c4, 0x0c8, 0x0d0, 0x0d4, 0x0d8, 0x0dc, 0x0e0, 0x100, 0x108, 0x10c, 0x118, 0x11c, 0x124, 0x128, 0x12c, 0x130, 0x134, 0x138, 0x13c, 0x158, 0x15c, 0x164, 0x168, 0x16c, 0x170, 0x174, 0x178, 0x17c, 0x200, 0x204, 0x2e4, 0x2e8, 0x2ec, 0x2f4, 0x2f8, 0x310, 0x314, 0x320, 0x328, 0x344, 0x348, 0x370, 0x374, 0x37c, 0x380, 0x390, 0x394, 0x398, 0x3ac, 0x3b8, 0x3bc, 0x3c0, 0x3c4, 0x3d8, 0x3e8, 0x41c, 0x420, 0x424, 0x428, 0x42c, 0x430, 0x44c, 0x47c, 0x480, 0x484, 0x50c, 0x554, 0x558, 0x55c, 0x670, 0x674, 0x690, 0x694, 0x698, 0x69c, 0x6a0, 0x6a4, 0x6c0, 0x6c4, 0x6f0, 0x6f4, 0x960, 0x970, 0x974, 0xa20, 0xa24, 0xb88, 0xb8c, 0xbc4, 0xbc8, 0xbcc, 0xbd0, 0xbd4, 0xbd8, 0xbdc, 0xbe0, 0xbe4, 0xbe8, 0xbec, 0xc00, 0xc5c, 0xcac
 +
 
 +
[2.0.0+] Whitelist was extended with 0x4c4, 0x4c8, 0x4cc, 0x584, 0x588, 0x58c.
 +
 
 +
[2.0.0+] The IO registers in range 0x7000E400 (PMC) size 0xC00 skip the whitelist, and do a TrustZone call using [[SMC#ReadWriteRegister|ReadWriteRegister]].
 +
 
 +
[4.0.0+] Access to the Memory Controller (0x70019000) also uses smcReadWriteRegister.
 +
 
 +
Here is the whitelist imposed by that SMC, relative to the start of the PMC registers:
 +
 
 +
0x000, 0x00c, 0x010, 0x014, 0x01c, 0x020, 0x02c, 0x030, 0x034, 0x038, 0x03c, 0x040, 0x044, 0x048, 0x0dc, 0x0e0, 0x0e4, 0x160, 0x164, 0x168, 0x170, 0x1a8, 0x1b8, 0x1bc, 0x1c0, 0x1c4, 0x1c8, 0x2b4, 0x2d4, 0x440, 0x4d8
 +
 
 +
Here is the whitelist imposed by the SMC [[SMC#ReadWriteRegister|ReadWriteRegister]] (checked in addition to the whitelist in the ReadWriteRegister SVC), relative to the start of the MC registers:
 +
 
 +
0x000, 0x004, 0x008, 0x00C, 0x010, 0x01C, 0x020, 0x030, 0x034, 0x050, 0x054, 0x090, 0x094, 0x098, 0x09C, 0x0A0, 0x0A4, 0x0A8, 0x0AC, 0x0B0, 0x0B4, 0x0B8, 0x0BC, 0x0C0, 0x0C4, 0x0C8, 0x0D0, 0x0D4, 0x0D8, 0x0DC, 0x0E0, 0x100, 0x108, 0x10C, 0x118, 0x11C, 0x124, 0x128, 0x12C, 0x130, 0x134, 0x138, 0x13C, 0x158, 0x15C, 0x164, 0x168, 0x16C, 0x170, 0x174, 0x178, 0x17C, 0x200, 0x204, 0x238, 0x240, 0x244, 0x250, 0x254, 0x258, 0x264, 0x268, 0x26C, 0x270, 0x274, 0x280, 0x284, 0x288, 0x28C, 0x294, 0x2E4, 0x2E8, 0x2EC, 0x2F4, 0x2F8, 0x310, 0x314, 0x320, 0x328, 0x344, 0x348, 0x370, 0x374, 0x37C, 0x380, 0x390, 0x394, 0x398, 0x3AC, 0x3B8, 0x3BC, 0x3C0, 0x3C4, 0x3D8, 0x3E8, 0x41C, 0x420, 0x424, 0x428, 0x42C, 0x430, 0x44C, 0x47C, 0x480, 0x484, 0x4C4, 0x4C8, 0x4CC, 0x50C, 0x554, 0x558, 0x55C, 0x584, 0x588, 0x58C, 0x670, 0x674, 0x690, 0x694, 0x698, 0x69C, 0x6A0, 0x6A4, 0x6C0, 0x6C4, 0x6F0, 0x6F4, 0x960, 0x970, 0x974, 0x9B8, 0xA20, 0xA24, 0xA88, 0xA94, 0xA98, 0xA9C, 0xAA0, 0xAA4, 0xAA8, 0xAAC, 0xAB0, 0xAB4, 0xAB8, 0xABC, 0xAC0, 0xAC4, 0xAC8, 0xACC, 0xAD0, 0xAD4, 0xAD8, 0xADC, 0xAE0, 0xB88, 0xB8C, 0xBC4, 0xBC8, 0xBCC, 0xBD0, 0xBD4, 0xBD8, 0xBDC, 0xBE0, 0xBE4, 0xBE8, 0xBEC, 0xC00, 0xC5C, 0xCAC

Sets one of the AArch64 hardware breakpoints. The nintendo switch has 6 hardware breakpoints, and 4 hardware watchpoints. The syscall has two behaviors depending on the value of HardwareBreakPointRegisterName:
 +
 
 +
If HardwareBreakPointRegisterName < 0x10, then it sets one of the AArch64 hardware breakpoints. Flags will go to DBGBCRn_EL1, and value to DBGBVRn_EL1. The only flags the user is allowed to set are those in the bitmask 0x7F01E1. Furthermore, the kernel will or it with 0x4004, in order to set various security flags to guarantee the watchpoints only triggers for code in EL0. If the user asks for a Breakpoint Type of ContextIDR match, the kernel shall use the given DebugHandle to set DBGBVRn_EL1 to the ContextID of the debugged process.
 +
 
 +
If HardwareBreakPointRegisterName is between 0x10 and 0x20 (exclusive), then it sets one of the AArch64 hardware watchpoints. Flags will go to DBGWCRn_EL1, and the value to DBGWVRn_EL1. The only flags the user is allowed to set are those in the bitmask 0xFF0F1FF9. Furthermore, the kernel will or it with 0x104004. This will set various security flags, and set the watchpoint type to be a Linked Watchpoint. This means that you need to link it to a Linked ContextIDR breakpoint. Check the ARM documentation for more information.
 +
 
 +
Note that HardwareBreakPointRegisterName 0 to 4 match only to Virtual Address, while HardwareBreakPointRegisterName 5 and 6 match against either Virtual Address, ContextID, or VMID. As such, if you are configuring a breakpoint to link for a watchpoint, make sure you use hardware_breakpoint_id 5 or 6.
 +
 
 +
For more documentation for hardware breakpoints, check out the AArch64 documentation for the [http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc.ddi0488h/way1382455558968.html DBGBCRn_EL1 register] and the [http://infocenter.arm.com/help/topic/com.arm.doc.ddi0488h/way1382455560629.html DBGWCRn_EL1 register]

 +
 
 +
Takes in a SMC function ID in X0, and arguments for that SMC function in X1-X7.
 +
 
 +
Passing an invalid SMC function ID or calling from a core other than core 3 will result in a secure monitor panic.
 +
 
 +
The kernel parses bits 9-15 in the passed SMC function ID (per the ARM SMC calling convention), and when set uses as an indicator to translate a pointer in the associated register (X1-X7) to a physical address. The kernel will translate any address mapped as R-W, other addresses (R--, R-X, or invalid pointers) will be translated as 0/NULL.
 +
 
 +
Output is returned raw from the Secure Monitor; X0 will be the untranslated SMC result and X1-X7 will contain other SMC output (or be unchanged, depending on the SMC).
 +
 
 +
== Debugging ==
 +
[2.0.0+] Exactly 6 debug SVCs require that [[SPL_services#GetConfig|IsDebugMode]] is non-zero. Error 0x4201 is returned otherwise.

* BreakDebugProcess
 +
* ContinueDebugEvent
 +
* WriteDebugProcessMemory
 +
* SetDebugThreadContext
 +
* TerminateDebugProcess
 +
* SetHardwareBreakPoint
 +
 
 +
DebugActiveProcess stops execution of the target process, the normal method for resuming it requires ContinueDebugEvent(see above). Closing the debug handle also results in execution being resumed.

= Exception handling =
 +
First of all, a function that might be called by synchronous exception handler and that is called by the SError handler fetches the exception info, adjusts PC, panics on exceptions taken from EL1, then dispatches the exception.
 +
 
 +
The dispatcher has two mutually exclusive exception reporting methods:
 +
* by storing information at the start of the process's TLS memregion (TPIDRRO_EL0) and jumping back to the crt0
 +
* by using KDebug
 +
 
 +
KDebug dispatching is used when at least one of the following conditions are met:
 +
* SMC ConfigItem KernelMemConfig bit 1 is NOT set (it isn't on retail), unless: this is a software or hardware breakpoint, or a watchpoint, or [4.0.0+?] the process is attached and this is a Google PNaCl trap instruction (see LLVM source)
 +
* FAR doesn't point to a valid address in mapped-readable CodeStatic memory (i.e. this is the case for NRO and JIT memory) or this is one of the following exceptions (it particular, that doesn't include FP exceptions occurring in CodeStatic memory):
 +
** Uncategorized
 +
** IllegalState
 +
** SupervisorCallA32
 +
** SupervisorCallA64

** PCAlignment

** SPAlignment

** BreakpointLowerEl

** SoftwareStepLowerEl (note: no way set single-step flag; not parsed)
 +
** WatchpointLowerEl
 +
** SoftwareBreakpointA32 (note: not parsed)
 +
** SoftwareBreakpointA64 (note: not parsed)
 +
   
 +
In all other cases the userland-handled exception path is taken.

 +
If the process is attached, the exception is reported to the KDebug. If the thread was continued using flag IgnoreExceptions, it returns from the exception as if nothing happened.
 +
 
 +
If the latter is not the case, or if the process isn't attached, proceed to [2.0.0+] crash reporting (or in [1.0.0] just terminate the process):
 +
if EnableDebug is set, and depending on the process state (more than one crash per process isn't permitted) it may signal itself with ProcessState_Crashed so that PM asks NS to start creport so that creport attaches to it and reports the crashes. Otherwise, just terminate.

(During normal app boot the process is invoked with X0=0 and X1=main_thread_handle. The crt0 of retail apps determines whether to boot normally or handle an exception if X0 is set to 0 or not)
 +
 
 +
The application is supposed to promptly update the contents of elr_el1 to a user handler (and any other regs it sees fit) and call [[#ReturnFromException]] (error code) to call that handler. The latter is then expected to promptly abort the program.
 +
 
 +
[[#ReturnFromException]] updates the contents of the kernel stack frame with what the user provided in the TLS structure, sets TPIDR_EL0 to 1, then:
 +
* if the provided error code is 0, gracefully pivots and returns from exception
 +
* if it is not, replays the exception and pass it to the KDebug (see above). One can pass 0x10001 to prevent process termination. If the process is attached, this also prevents crash-collection/termination (different from the exception handler behavior)
 +
 
 +
If an exception occurs from the above user handler, the entire exception handling process will repeat with the new exception.

=Exception Handling=
+
Note that if a thread that wasn't faulting calls [[#ReturnFromException]], it signals an "invalid syscall" exception
−
There appears to be userland code for handling exceptions, however this doesn't seem to be executed on retail.
 
  
−
On usermode exception, it jumps to main code binary entrypoint (main_binary_address+0) with X0=exception_info_ptr and X1=exception_info2_ptr.
+
Note that [[SMC|IsDebugMode]] is not used during exception-handling, except for enabling printing a message to UART-A. This UART code causes a system-hang on retail (likely due to a loop that doesn't exit). This printing doesn't seem to run when the process is attached for debugging?
−
On boot, X0 is set to 0 triggering normal crt0 setup.

SetHeapSize

Argument Type Name
(In) X1 uint64_t Size
(Out) W0 #Result Result
(Out) X1 void* HeapAddress

Sets the process heap to a given Size. It can both extend and shrink the heap.

Size must be a multiple of 0x200000 (2MB).

On success, the heap base-address (which is fixed by kernel, aslr'd, and always in the Heap memory region) is written to HeapAddress.

Uses current process pool partition. The memory allocated counts towards the caller's process Memory ResourceLimit.

[2.0.0+] Size must be less than or equal to 4GB.

Result codes

0x0: Success.

0xCA01: Invalid size passed. It's either bigger than 4GB, or misaligned.

0xD001: Size is bigger than the Heap Region size.

0xCE01: KMemoryBlockAllocator slab allocator exhausted.

0xD401: The memory region is in an invalid state. Likely because a mapping was made in the heap region.

0x10801: Memory resource limit reached.

SetMemoryPermission

Argument Type Name
(In) X0 void* Address
(In) X1 uint64_t Size
(In) W2 #MemoryPermission MemoryPermission
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Changes permission of page-aligned memory region.

Bit2 of permission (exec) is not allowed. Setting write-only is not allowed either (bit1).

This can be used to move back and forth between ---, r-- and rw-.

Result codes

0x0: Success. The memory region was reprotected.

0xCC01: Unaligned address specified.

0xCA01: Unaligned or zero size specified.

0xD401: The provided memory region does not fall within the userland address space.

0xD801: Invalid permission specified. Valid permissions are ---, r-- and rw-.

0xD401: The provided memory region was in an invalid state. The region must have the FlagCanReprotect state, and must not have the Locked or Uncached attributes.

0xCE01: Kernel resource exhausted.

SetMemoryAttribute

Argument Type Name
(In) X0 void* Address
(In) X1 uint64_t Size
(In) W2 uint32_t Mask
(In) W3 uint32_t Value
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Changes attribute of page-aligned memory region. The only allowed combination of Value and Mask is 0x8, which means only bit3 in #MemoryAttribute can be set or cleared.

This is used to turn on/off caching for a given memory area. Useful when talking to devices such as the GPU.

What happens "under the hood" is the "Memory Attribute Indirection Register" index is changed from 2 to 3 in the MMU descriptor.

MapMemory

Argument Type Name
(In) X0 void* DstAddress
(In) X1 void* SrcAddress
(In) X2 uint64_t Size
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Maps a memory range into a different range.

Mainly used for adding guard pages around stack.

Source range gets reprotected to --- (it can no longer be accessed), and bit0 is set in the source #MemoryAttribute.

[1.0.0] This could be used to map into either the Alias Region or the Stack region.

[2.0.0+] This can only be used to map into the Stack region.

Code can get the range of the Alias region from #GetInfo id0=2,3, and on 2.0.0+ the range of the Stack region via #GetInfo id0=14, 15 (on 1.0.0, the Stack region had hardcoded limits).

When mapped into the Alias region, the mapped memory will have state 0x482907.

When mapped into the Stack region, the mapped memory will have state 0x5C3C0B.

UnmapMemory

Argument Type Name
(In) X0 void* DstAddress
(In) X1 void* SrcAddress
(In) X2 uint64_t Size
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Unmaps a region that was previously mapped with #MapMemory.

It's possible to unmap ranges partially, you don't need to unmap the entire range "in one go".

The srcaddr/dstaddr must match what was given when the pages were originally mapped.

QueryMemory

Argument Type Name
(In) X0 #MemoryInfo* MemoryInfo
(In) X2 void* Address
(Out) W0 #Result Result
(Out) W1 #PageInfo PageInfo

Queries information about an address. Will always fetch the lowest page-aligned mapping that contains the provided address.

Outputs a #MemoryInfo struct.

ExitProcess

Argument Type Name
(In) None
(Out) None

Exits the current process.

CreateThread

Argument64 Argument32 Type Name
(In) X1 R1 void(*)(void*) Entry
(In) X2 R2 void* ThreadContext
(In) X3 R3 void* StackTop
(In) W4 R0 int32_t Priority
(In) W5 R4 int32_t ProcessorId
(Out) W0 R0 #Result Result
(Out) W1 R1 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle

Creates a thread in the current process.

ProcessorId must be 0,1,2,3 or -2, where -2 uses the default CpuId for process.

StartThread

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(Out) None

Starts the thread for the provided handle.

ExitThread

Argument Type Name
(In) None
(Out) None

Exits the current thread.

SleepThread

Argument64 Argument32 Type Name
(In) X0 R0, R1 uint64_t Nanoseconds

Sleeps for a specified amount of time, or yields the thread.

Setting nanoseconds to 0, -1, or -2 indicates a yielding type.

Value Type
0 Yielding without core migration
-1 Yielding with core migration
-2 Yielding to any other thread

GetThreadPriority

Argument Type Name
(In) W1 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(Out) W0 #Result Result
(Out) W1 int32_t Priority

Gets the priority of provided thread handle.

SetThreadPriority

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(In) W1 int32_t Priority
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Sets the priority of provided thread handle.

Priority is a number 0-0x3F. Lower value means higher priority.

GetThreadCoreMask

Argument64 Argument32 Type Name
(In) W2 R2 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(Out) W0 R0 #Result Result
(Out) W1 R1 int32_t CoreMask0
(Out) X2 R2, R3 uint64_t CoreMask1

Gets the affinity mask of provided thread handle.

SetThreadCoreMask

Argument64 Argument32 Type Name
(In) W0 R0 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(In) W1 R1 int32_t CoreMask0
(In) X2 R2, R3 uint64_t CoreMask1
(Out) W0 R0 #Result Result

Sets the affinity mask of provided thread handle.

GetCurrentProcessorNumber

Argument Type Name
(In) None
(Out) W0 uint32_t CpuId

Gets which cpu is executing the current thread.

CpuId is an integer in the range 0-3.

SignalEvent

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<WritableEvent> EventHandle
(Out) X0 #Result Result

Puts the given event in the signaled state.

Will wake up any thread currently waiting on this event. Can potentially trigger a reschedule.

Any calls to #WaitSynchronization on this handle will return immediately, until the event's signaled state is reset.

Result codes

0x0: Success. Event is now in signaled state.

0xE401: Invalid handle. The handle either does not exist, or is not a WritableEvent.

ClearEvent

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<WritableEvent> or Handle<ReadableEvent> EventHandle
(Out) X0 #Result Result

Takes the given event out of the signaled state, if it is signaled.

Result codes

0x0: Success, the event is now in the not-signaled state.

0xE401: Invalid handle. The handle either does not exist, or is not a ReadableEvent nor a WritableEvent.

MapSharedMemory

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<SharedMemory> SharedMemoryHandle
(In) X1 void* Address
(In) X2 uint64_t Size
(In) W3 #MemoryPermission MemoryPermission
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Maps the block supplied by the handle. The required permissions are different for the process that created the handle and all other processes.

Increases reference count for the KSharedMemory object. Thus in order to release the memory associated with the object, all handles to it must be closed and all mappings must be unmapped.

This one reprotects the src block with perms you give it. It also sets bit0 into #MemoryAttribute.

Executable bit perm not allowed.

Closing all handles automatically causes the bit0 in #MemoryAttribute to clear, and the permission to reset.

CloseHandle

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle Handle
(Out) W0 #Result Result

ResetSignal

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<ReadableEvent> or Handle<Process> Handle
(Out) W0 #Result Result

Resets the signal on the given handle, ensuring future calls to #WaitSynchronization on this handle will sleep until the handle is signaled again. If the handle is a ReadableEvent, this returns ResultInvalidState if the event is not signaled.

If the handle is a Process, it will clear the signaled state (which is set when the process changes #ProcessState. Once the process enters the Exited state, calling ResetSignal on the process will no longer have an effect (the process is permanently signaled), and the syscall will return 0xFA01.

Result codes

0x0: Success. The signal was reset.

0xE401: The handle is invalid or of the wrong type.

0xFA01: The handle was not signaled, or the process is in exited state, causing it to be permanently signaled.

Works with HandlesNum <= 0x40.

When zero handles are passed, this will wait forever until either timeout or cancellation occurs.

Does not accept 0xFFFF8001 or 0xFFFF8000 as handles.

Object types

KDebug: signals when there is a new DebugEvent (retrievable via #GetDebugEvent).

KClientPort: signals when the number of sessions is less than the maximum allowed.

KProcess: signals when the process undergoes a state change (retrievable via #GetProcessInfo).

KReadableEvent: signals when the event's corresponding KWritableEvent has been signaled via #SignalEvent.

KServerPort: signals when there is an incoming connection waiting to be accepted.

KServerSession: signals when there is an incoming message waiting to be received or the pipe is closed.

KThread: signals when the thread has exited.

Result codes

0x0: Success. One of the objects was signaled before the timeout expired, or one of the objects is a Session with a closed remote. Handle index is updated to indicate which object signaled.

0x7601: Thread termination requested. Handle index is not updated.

0xe401: Invalid handle. Returned when one of the handles passed is invalid. Handle index is not updated.

0xe601: Invalid address. Returned when the handles pointer is not a readable address. Handle index is not updated.

0xea01: Timeout. Returned when no objects have been signaled within the timeout. Handle index is not updated.

0xec01: Interrupted. Returned when another thread uses #CancelSynchronization to cancel this thread. Handle index is not updated.

0xee01: Too many handles. Returned when the number of handles passed is > 0x40.

CancelSynchronization

Argument Type Name
(In) W0 Handle<Thread> ThreadHandle
(Out) W0 #Result Result

If the referenced thread is currently in a synchronization call (#WaitSynchronization, #ReplyAndReceive or #ReplyAndReceiveLight), that call will be interrupted and return 0xec01. If that thread is not currently executing such a synchronization call, the next call to a synchronization call will return 0xec01.

This doesn't take force-pause (activity/debug pause) into account.

Result codes

0x0: Success. The thread was either interrupted or has had its flag set.

0xe401: Invalid handle. The handle given was either invalid or not a thread handle.

If ReplyTargetSessionHandle is not zero, a reply from the TLS will be sent to that session. Then it will wait until either of the passed sessions has an incoming message, is closed, a passed port has an incoming connection, or the timeout expires. If there is an incoming message, it is copied to the TLS.

If ReplyTargetSessionHandle is zero, the TLS should contain a blank message. If this message has a C descriptor, the buffer it points to will be used as the pointer buffer. See IPC_Marshalling#IPC_buffers. Note that a pointer buffer cannot be specified if ReplyTargetSessionHandle is not zero.

After being validated, passed handles will be enumerated in order; even if a session has been closed, if one that appears earlier in the list has an incoming message, it will take priority and a result code of 0x0 will be returned.

Result codes

0x0: Success. Either a session has an incoming message or a port has an incoming connection. HandleIndex is set appropriately.

0xea01: Timeout. No handles were signalled before the timeout expired. HandleIndex is not updated.

0xf601: Port remote dead. One of the sessions has been closed. HandleIndex is set appropriately.

Maps the backing memory for a CodeMemory object into the current process.

For MapOwner, memory permission must be RW-.

For MapSlave, memory permission must be R-- or R-X.

Operations UnmapOwner/UnmapSlave unmap memory that was previously mapped this way.

This allows one "secure JIT" process to map the code memory as RW-, and the other "slave" process to map it R-X.

Read/write IO registers with a hardcoded whitelist. Input address is physical-address and must be aligned to 4.

rw_mask is 0 for reading and 0xffffffff for writing. You can also write individual bits by using a mask value.

You can only write to registers inside physical pages 0x70019000 (MC), 0x7001C000 (MC0), 0x7001D000 (MC1), and they all share the same whitelist.

The whitelist is same for writing as for reading.

The whitelist is:

(In) W0 R0 #HardwareBreakPointRegisterName Name
(In) X1 R2, R3 uint64_t Flags
(In) X2 R1, R4 uint64_t Value
(Out) W0 R0 #Result Result

Sets one of the AArch64 hardware breakpoints. The nintendo switch has 6 hardware breakpoints, and 4 hardware watchpoints. The syscall has two behaviors depending on the value of HardwareBreakPointRegisterName:

If HardwareBreakPointRegisterName < 0x10, then it sets one of the AArch64 hardware breakpoints. Flags will go to DBGBCRn_EL1, and value to DBGBVRn_EL1. The only flags the user is allowed to set are those in the bitmask 0x7F01E1. Furthermore, the kernel will or it with 0x4004, in order to set various security flags to guarantee the watchpoints only triggers for code in EL0. If the user asks for a Breakpoint Type of ContextIDR match, the kernel shall use the given DebugHandle to set DBGBVRn_EL1 to the ContextID of the debugged process.

If HardwareBreakPointRegisterName is between 0x10 and 0x20 (exclusive), then it sets one of the AArch64 hardware watchpoints. Flags will go to DBGWCRn_EL1, and the value to DBGWVRn_EL1. The only flags the user is allowed to set are those in the bitmask 0xFF0F1FF9. Furthermore, the kernel will or it with 0x104004. This will set various security flags, and set the watchpoint type to be a Linked Watchpoint. This means that you need to link it to a Linked ContextIDR breakpoint. Check the ARM documentation for more information.

Note that HardwareBreakPointRegisterName 0 to 4 match only to Virtual Address, while HardwareBreakPointRegisterName 5 and 6 match against either Virtual Address, ContextID, or VMID. As such, if you are configuring a breakpoint to link for a watchpoint, make sure you use hardware_breakpoint_id 5 or 6.

For more documentation for hardware breakpoints, check out the AArch64 documentation for the DBGBCRn_EL1 register and the DBGWCRn_EL1 register

(In) X1-X7 R1-R7 uint64_t SMC arguments
(Out) X0 R0 Result SMC result
(Out) X1-X7 R1-R7 uint64_t SMC output

Takes in a SMC function ID in X0, and arguments for that SMC function in X1-X7.

Passing an invalid SMC function ID or calling from a core other than core 3 will result in a secure monitor panic.

The kernel parses bits 9-15 in the passed SMC function ID (per the ARM SMC calling convention), and when set uses as an indicator to translate a pointer in the associated register (X1-X7) to a physical address. The kernel will translate any address mapped as R-W, other addresses (R--, R-X, or invalid pointers) will be translated as 0/NULL.

Output is returned raw from the Secure Monitor; X0 will be the untranslated SMC result and X1-X7 will contain other SMC output (or be unchanged, depending on the SMC).

Debugging

[2.0.0+] Exactly 6 debug SVCs require that IsDebugMode is non-zero. Error 0x4201 is returned otherwise.

  • BreakDebugProcess
  • ContinueDebugEvent
  • WriteDebugProcessMemory
  • SetDebugThreadContext
  • TerminateDebugProcess
  • SetHardwareBreakPoint

DebugActiveProcess stops execution of the target process, the normal method for resuming it requires ContinueDebugEvent(see above). Closing the debug handle also results in execution being resumed.

IgnoreExceptionsOfOthers is like IgnoreException but acts on all threads that aren't in the input list. The affected threads are resumed.

Only one of of Resume and IgnoreOtherThreadsExceptions can be set at a time.

If the input number of threads is 0, this means "all threads".

Exception handling

First of all, a function that might be called by synchronous exception handler and that is called by the SError handler fetches the exception info, adjusts PC, panics on exceptions taken from EL1, then dispatches the exception.

The dispatcher has two mutually exclusive exception reporting methods:

  • by storing information at the start of the process's TLS memregion (TPIDRRO_EL0) and jumping back to the crt0
  • by using KDebug

KDebug dispatching is used when at least one of the following conditions are met:

  • SMC ConfigItem KernelMemConfig bit 1 is NOT set (it isn't on retail), unless: this is a software or hardware breakpoint, or a watchpoint, or [4.0.0+?] the process is attached and this is a Google PNaCl trap instruction (see LLVM source)
  • FAR doesn't point to a valid address in mapped-readable CodeStatic memory (i.e. this is the case for NRO and JIT memory) or this is one of the following exceptions (it particular, that doesn't include FP exceptions occurring in CodeStatic memory):
    • Uncategorized
    • IllegalState
    • SupervisorCallA32
    • SupervisorCallA64
    • PCAlignment
    • SPAlignment
    • SError
    • BreakpointLowerEl
    • SoftwareStepLowerEl (note: no way set single-step flag; not parsed)
    • WatchpointLowerEl
    • SoftwareBreakpointA32 (note: not parsed)
    • SoftwareBreakpointA64 (note: not parsed)

In all other cases the userland-handled exception path is taken.

KDebug path:

If the process is attached, the exception is reported to the KDebug. If the thread was continued using flag IgnoreExceptions, it returns from the exception as if nothing happened.

If the latter is not the case, or if the process isn't attached, proceed to [2.0.0+] crash reporting (or in [1.0.0] just terminate the process): if EnableDebug is set, and depending on the process state (more than one crash per process isn't permitted) it may signal itself with ProcessState_Crashed so that PM asks NS to start creport so that creport attaches to it and reports the crashes. Otherwise, just terminate.

Userland reporting path and #ReturnFromException:

TLS region start (A64):

Offset Length Description
0x0 0x148 Exception stack
0x148 0x78 ExceptionFrameA64

ExceptionFrameA64:

Offset Length Description
0x0 0x48 (8*9) GPRs 0..8.
0x48 0x8 lr
0x50 0x8 sp
0x58 0x8 pc (elr_el1)
0x60 0x4 pstate & 0xFF0FFE20
0x64 0x4 afsr0
0x68 0x4 afsr1
0x6C 0x4 esr
0x70 0x8 far

TLS region start (A32):

Offset Length Description
0x0 0x178 Exception stack
0x148 0x44 ExceptionFrameA32

ExceptionFrameA32:

Offset Length Description
0x0 0x20 (8*4) GPRs 0..7.
0x20 0x4 sp
0x24 0x4 lr
0x28 0x4 pc (elr_el1)
0x2C 0x4 tpidr_el0 = 1
0x30 0x4 cpsr & 0xFF0FFE20
0x34 0x4 afsr0
0x38 0x4 afsr1
0x3C 0x4 esr
0x40 0x4 far

In that case, after storing the regs in the TLS, the exception handler returns to the application's crt0 (entrypoint), with X0=<error description code> (see below) and X1=SP=frame=<stack top> (see above)

Desc. code Meaning
0x100 Instruction abort
0x102 Misaligned PC
0x103 Misaligned SP
0x106 [2.0.0+] SError
0x301 Bad SVC
0x104 Uncategorized, CP15RTTrap, CP15RRTTrap, CP14RTTrap, CP14RRTTrap, IllegalState, SystemRegisterTrap
0x101 None of the above, EC <= 0x34 and not a breakpoint

(During normal app boot the process is invoked with X0=0 and X1=main_thread_handle. The crt0 of retail apps determines whether to boot normally or handle an exception if X0 is set to 0 or not)

The application is supposed to promptly update the contents of elr_el1 to a user handler (and any other regs it sees fit) and call #ReturnFromException (error code) to call that handler. The latter is then expected to promptly abort the program.

#ReturnFromException updates the contents of the kernel stack frame with what the user provided in the TLS structure, sets TPIDR_EL0 to 1, then:

  • if the provided error code is 0, gracefully pivots and returns from exception
  • if it is not, replays the exception and pass it to the KDebug (see above). One can pass 0x10001 to prevent process termination. If the process is attached, this also prevents crash-collection/termination (different from the exception handler behavior)

If an exception occurs from the above user handler, the entire exception handling process will repeat with the new exception.

Note that if a thread that wasn't faulting calls #ReturnFromException, it signals an "invalid syscall" exception

Note that IsDebugMode is not used during exception-handling, except for enabling printing a message to UART-A. This UART code causes a system-hang on retail (likely due to a loop that doesn't exit). This printing doesn't seem to run when the process is attached for debugging?
