Cmd	Name	Arguments	Notes
0	OpenCodeFileSystem	u64 TitleId + X descriptor #ContentPath	Returns an #IFileSystem.
1	IsArchivedProgram	u64 ProcessId	Returns a bool (1 if code is mounted).
2	[4.0.0+] SetCurrentProcess	PID descriptor

RegisterProgram

Takes a storageID, a pid, a titleID, a 0x1C type-A buffer for the FS Access Header, and a 0x2C type-A buffer for the FS Access Control

Final FS permissions are stored as (ACI0_perms & ACID_perms). Will panic(svcBreak) when buffer sizes from ipc-rawdata are invalid.

UnregisterProgram

Takes a pid. Removes registered FS permissions for that PID.

SetEnabledProgramVerification

Seems to sets a global flag to inputval & 1.

When the flag is zero, it will set ret=0 instead of ret={error} when verifying the fixed-key NPDM ACID signature fails. This also skips verifying the NCA Header signature using the ACID key. Note that if verifying the fixed-key ACID signature is successful, and verifying the ACID-key NCA header signature fails, it will throw an error and abort.

Permissions

Every time permissions are checked, the process registration #fsp-pr is loaded using the session processID. The permission data is populated with data from the NPDM.

If the processID is <= 6 (which happens only for built-in sysmodules), it will use a hardcoded registration data. The default mask in this case is 0x8000000000000000.

Note that the functions check whether or not at least one bit is set in the mask. This means that, you don't need to set 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF to get all permissions: it suffices to set 0x8000000000000000.

If the code were to request an invalid input type, panic. But this never happens.

OpenFileSystem

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer (ContentPath) and a #FileSystemType as parameters. Returns an #IFileSystem.

[2.0.0+] This function was removed.

SetCurrentProcess

Takes a pid-descriptor.

OpenFileSystemWithPatch

Takes an input #FileSystemType and an u64 title-id. Returns an #IFileSystem.

Web-applet loads the #FileSystemType (which must be ContentManual) from u32_table[inparam].

Note: web-applet strings refer to both this cmd and #OpenFileSystemWithId as "MountContent", but official nn_sf_sync symbols use "OpenXX" names.

OpenFileSystemWithId

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer, an #FileSystemType and an u64 title-id. Returns an #IFileSystem.

The #IFileSystem must be ContentMeta if the NCA type is 0 (control).

The input buffer is the output string path from GetApplicationContentPath.

May return errors when attempting to access NCA-paths for an update-title with a gamecard, when the gamecard isn't inserted. May return error 0x7D402 in some cases with update-titles. Non-val2 in32 values with NCA-type1 are unusable, even for normal titles.

The official "MountApplicationPackage" func uses this with in64=0 and #FileSystemType ApplicationPackage.

After the #FileSystemType specific permissions are checked, it then gets the func retval for permissions-type 0x25 and func0.

When #FileSystemType is ContentMeta, it uses in64=0xffffffffffffffff internally, otherwise it checks if in64 is set to 0xffffffffffffffff then throws an error if so. When the in64 used internally is not 0xffffffffffffffff, it's compared with the NCA titleID, then an error is thrown on mismatch.

OpenBisFileSystem

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer string and a u32 Bis partitionID. Official user-process code sets instr[0] = 0 normally. Returns an #IFileSystem.

Only partitionIDs for FAT partitions are usable with this, otherwise error 0x2EE202 is returned. Seems to be about the same as #OpenBisStorage except this mounts the partition filesystem instead of allowing direct access to the partition sectors.

OpenBisStorage

Takes a u32 partition ID, returns 0x2EE202 for partitions which do not exist, 0x320002 for partitions which cannot be opened and a valid #IStorage handle otherwise.

InvalidateBisCache

Seems to invalidate the Bis cache for MBR/GPT after overwriting that data via the OpenBisStorage IStorage. Used by SystemInitializer.

DeleteSaveDataFileSystem

Takes an input u64.

CreateSaveDataFileSystem

Takes a 0x40-byte Save-struct entry, a 0x40-byte SaveCreate-struct entry, and a 0x10-byte input struct.

Only the first 0x5-bytes in the 0x10-byte struct are initialized: all-zero when automatically creating savedata during savecommon mount by official user-processes. In the dedicated save-creation code in official user-processes: +0 u32 = 0x40060, +4 u8 = 1.

Creates regular savedata.

CreateSaveDataFileSystemBySystemSaveDataId

Takes a 0x40-byte Save-struct entry and a 0x40-byte SaveCreate-struct entry.

Creates savedata in the SYSTEM NAND partition.

OpenGameCardStorage

Takes two input u32s (gamecard handle, partition ID), and returns an #IStorage for the partition.

OpenGameCardFileSystem

Takes two input u32s, with the second u32 located at +4 in rawdata after the first u32. Returns an #IFileSystem.

Mounts a gamecard partition.

OpenSaveDataFileSystem

Takes an input u8 #SaveDataSpaceId and a 0x40-byte Save-struct entry. Official user-process code is only known to use value 1 for the u8.

Returns an #IFileSystem.

Permissions aren't checked until the specified save is successfully found.

Only one process (specifically only one #IFileSystem session) can mount a given savedata at any given time (this includes SystemSaveData).

OpenSaveDataFileSystemBySystemSaveDataId

Takes an input u8 #SaveDataSpaceId and a 0x40-byte Save-struct entry. Web-applet only uses value0 for the input u8.

Returns an #IFileSystem.

Mounts savedata in the SYSTEM NAND partition.

OpenSaveDataInfoReader

No input, returns an output #ISaveDataInfoReader.

OpenSaveDataInfoReaderBySaveDataSpaceId

Takes an input u8 #SaveDataSpaceId, returns an output #ISaveDataInfoReader.

OpenContentStorageFileSystem

Takes a #ContentStorageId. Invalid values return 0x2EE202.

Returns an #IFileSystem with NCA files. The read data from these files is identical to the data read by NCM_services#ReadContentIdFile.

OpenDataStorageByDataId

Takes a #StorageId and a TitleID.

Returns a domain object ID implementing the #IStorage interface for data archives.

OpenDeviceOperator

This command returns a session to a port implementing the #IDeviceOperator interface.

OpenSdCardDetectionEventNotifier

This command returns a session to a port implementing the #IEventNotifier interface.

OpenGameCardDetectionEventNotifier

This command returns a session to a port implementing the #IEventNotifier interface.

VerifySaveDataFileSystem

Takes an unknown input u64 and a type-0x6 output buffer.

The input u64 high-byte must be non-zero, otherwise an error is returned(0xE02).

GetSaveDataCommitId

Takes an input u8 and u64, returns an output u64.

SetSdCardEncryptionSeed

Takes in the 0x10 byte SD card encryption seed, and loads it into FS-module state.

NS-module reads the 0x10 bytes from SdCard:/Nintendo/Contents/private, and compares them to the first 0x10 bytes of the ns_appman:/private (in system savedata 0x8000000000000043). If they match, NS calls this command using bytes 0x10-0x20 from ns_appman:/private. The rest of this file (0x1F0 bytes total) is (usually/always?) all-zero.

SetGlobalAccessLogMode

Takes an input u32.

GetGlobalAccessLogMode

Returns an output u32.

GlobalAccessLogMode is normally 0.

OutputAccessLogToSdCard

Takes a type-0x5 input buffer.

The input buffer is the string to output to the log. User-processes normally include a newline at the end.

User-processes only use this when the value previously loaded from #GetGlobalAccessLogMode has bit1 set.

When bit1 in GlobalAccessLogMode is clear, FS-module will just return 0 for OutputAccessLogToSdCard. However even with that set the log doesn't show up SD, unknown why.

The input buffer is written to the "$FsAccessLog:/FsAccessLog.txt" file, where "$FsAccessLog" is the SD-card mount-name. It's written to the current end of the file(appended).

IStorage

This is "nn::fssrv::sf::IStorage".

This is the interface for a raw device, usually a block device.

Cmd	Name	Arguments
0	Read	Takes a type-0x46 buffer, an offset and length
1	Write	Takes a type-0x45 buffer, an offset and length
2	Flush	None
3	SetSize	Takes a size
4	GetSize	None
5	[4.0.0+] OperateRange

IFileSystem

This is "nn::fssrv::sf::IFileSystem".

There are two main implementations of this interface:

• RomFS: Filesystem implementation statically linked in the binary. Uses an #IStorage interface as underlying raw device.
• IPC proxy: Used for all non-RomFS filesystems. In this case, actual filesystem implementation is in the FS process.

GetEntryType

Takes a type-0x9 input buffer for the path and returns #DirectoryEntryType as an output u32.

OpenFile

Takes a type-0x19 input buffer for the path, and an u32 mode. mode controls how the file is opened, based on which bits are set:

• When bit 0 is set, the file is Readable: you can use the Read operation.
• When bit 1 is set, the file is Writable: you can use the Write operation.
• When bit 2 is set, the file is Appendable: unless this bit is set, you will not be able to write beyond the end of a file (such writes will result in an error 0x307202)

OpenDirectory

Takes a type-0x9 input buffer for the path and an u64 filter_flags. filter_flags controls what type of entries are read by the #IDirectory: bitmask 0x1 = directories, bitmask 0x2 = files.

Commit

Like 3DS, this has to be used after writing to savedata for the changes to take affect.

GetFreeSpaceSize

Takes a type-0x9 input buffer for the path and returns an output byte-size u64 for the total free space with this FS.

GetTotalSpaceSize

Takes a type-0x9 input buffer for the path and returns an output byte-size u64 for the total space available with this FS(free+used).

Cmd	Name
0	#ReadSaveDataInfo

ReadSaveDataInfo

Takes a type-0x6 output buffer. Returns an output u64 for total output entries. This buffer contains an array of #SaveDataInfo.

This is used to get #SaveDataInfo for all savedata on the system (or all savedata for the current #SaveDataSpaceId). When used multiple times, it will resume reading where it left off, until no more entries are available (in that case the out u64 is value 0).

Returns a titleID and the title-version for it.

• Output u32 with ARMS-gamecard: title-version v131162. This is the title-version for 2.1.0, which is the sysupdate included with this gamecard. Launch-day gamecards return title-version v450.
• Output u64 with ARMS-gamecard: titleID 0100000000000816.

Save Struct

Offset	Size	Description
0x0	0x8	0 for SystemSaveData. SaveData: 0 can be used for accessing the savedata associated with the current FS session titleID, otherwise when set this is the titleID associated with the savedata to access.
0x8	0x10	userID for user-specific savedata(saveuser) when set, otherwise when zero this indicates the common savedata(savecommon). This is loaded from Account_services.
0x18	0x8	u64 saveID. 0 for SaveData.
0x20	0x1	#SaveDataType
0x21	0x7	Padding
0x28	0x8	0 for SystemSaveData/SaveData.
0x30	0x8	0 for SystemSaveData/SaveData.
0x38	0x8	0 for SystemSaveData/SaveData.

Total size is 0x40-bytes.

For DeviceSaveData, this struct is all-zero except for the #SaveDataType field.

SaveCreate Struct

Offset	Size	Description
0x0	0x8	IVFC level4 size?
0x8	0x8	Same as offset 0x0 normally? Hard-coded to 0x80000 for BcatSaveData.
0x10	0x8	0x4000 for SystemSaveData/SaveData/DeviceSaveData/BcatSaveData. IVFC level4 block-size in bytes?
0x18	0x8	Official user-processes only uses 0 here for SystemSaveData/SaveData. For the dedicated save-creation code with SaveData/DeviceSaveData, this value comes from an input param with official user-processes. For BcatSaveData, this is the hard-coded titleID of the bcat-sysmodule.
0x20	0x4	Written using an input param for official user-processes. Hard-coded 0 for BcatSaveData.
0x24	0x1	Official user-processes only uses 0 here for SystemSaveData, 1 for SaveData/DeviceSaveData/BcatSaveData.
0x25	0x1	0 for SystemSaveData/SaveData.
0x26	0x1A	Not initialized for SystemSaveData/SaveData.

Total size is 0x40-bytes.

DeviceSaveData

This is accessed using the same commands for SaveData with the same input u8, the only difference compared to SaveData is the Save-struct.

BcatSaveData

This is accessed using the same commands for SaveData with the same input u8. The Save-struct is the same as DeviceSaveData, except that the titleID field is set to <input titleID>. See above regarding SaveCreate-struct.

The 0x10-byte struct passed to #CreateSaveDataFileSystem has the first 0x5-bytes set to all-zero.

SaveDataInfo

Offset	Size	Description
0x0	0x8	Unknown saveID
0x8	0x1	#SaveDataSpaceId
0x9	0x1	#SaveDataType
0xA	0x6	Padding?
0x10	0x10	userID
0x20	0x8	saveID, 0 for regular SaveData.
0x28	0x8	Application titleID, for regular SaveData.
0x30	0x8	Raw saveimage size
0x38	0x28	Unknown. Usually zeros?

This is a 0x60-byte struct.
