Spuldrfs

Introduction

• spuldrfs is a Linux virtual filesystem which allows you to execute isolated SPU modules from user-space.
• spuldrfs is like spuisofs but can also execute loaders like lv1ldr or isoldr.
• I used this driver e.g. to run modified lv1ldr to dump my ENCDEC keys.
• spuldrfs.tar.gz: http://www.multiupload.nl/9OHEN8BQXF

Features

• MFC data segment faults are handled by the driver. That means you do not have to worry about it.
• Large data buffers which can be used for data exchange between SPU adn PPU.
• Full access to all SPU registers from user-space.
