Difference between Debug Firmware HV and Retail HV

There is no difference between debug firmware lv1.self and retail firmware lv1.self The differences reside on the repository nodes loaded because of policies/flags.

HSPRG

The hypervisor stores a pointer to some structures per LPAR in HSPRG0 register.
There are actually 2 HSPRG0 values: one for each thread of Cell CPU !!!
There is a HSPRG0 array at 0x8(-0x69A0(HSPRG0)) + 0x20.

LPAR

LPAR = Logical Partition

lpar1 starts at 0x<unknown>, and its belived to be the memory space where lv1 stores its variables, flags and other data.

lpar2 starts at 0x80000000000 and it's belived to be the memory space where lv2 stores its variables, flags and other data.

The pointer to active LPAR is stored at -0x67E8(HSPRG0).

Interrupt handling

The pointer to the interrupt handler that is called e.g. when an external interrupt occurs is at -0x69F0(HSPRG0).

0x00001930 (3.15 and 2.60)

Interrupt vector tables

There are 2 interrupt vector tables. One for each thread. The pointer to these tables is at -0x6950(HSPRG0).

Hash Function

The name of a repository node is hashed and 2 hash values (2 32bit values) are produced.
The 1st hash value is used to select a sub-hash table.
The 2nd hash value is used to find a sub-hash table bucket.
Repository nodes in a hash bucket are ordered by the 2nd hash value.

void hash(unsigned long long n1,
          unsigned long long n2,
          unsigned long long n3,
          unsigned long long n4,

SB Bus Interrupt Handling

There is a table of interrupt handlers for SB devices
The size of table is 64
The main SB bus interrupt handler is at 0x002B9CC4 (3.15)
The main interrupt handler reads interrupt index and dispatches interrupts

Interrupt Index

The main SB bus interrupt handler reads 2 32-bit values from addresses 0x24000008100 and 0x0x24000008104
The interrupt index is calculated from these values

Storage bus subsystem

vtable

0x00353AC8 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0xEE8 - table of pointers to storage device objects (7 * 8 bytes, max 7 devices)

Storage device class

Member variables

offset 0x8 - device id (8 bytes)

offset 0xD50 - device id (8 bytes)

offset 0xD60 - pointer to ENCDEC SB bus device object

Region Manager

Each storage device has a Region Manager (i call it like that)
Region Manager stores information about each Region of the storage device
All Regions of a Region Manager are linked together
Free Regions of a Region Manager are linked together also
A Region Manager can have at most 8 Regions

Region

Each storage device can have at most 8 regions (0-7)
Each region has ACL table
HV checks region ACLs before allowing access to the region
Each region has a start sector that is an offset from the physical first sector of the storage device and a number of sectors

The start sector passed to lv1 storage hvcalls is relative to the start sector of the region passed to the lv1 storage hvcall

Region ACL

offset 0x0 - LPAR AUTH ID (8 bytes)

offset 0x8 - access rigths (8 bytes)

offset 0x10 - entry valid flag: 0 - invalid, 1 - valid (1 byte)

Region Access Protection

Before a storage region is accessed, HV checks access rights of the caller.
Repository node ss.laid (LPAR authentication id) is evaluated for this purpose.
If LPAR has a repository node ios.ata.region0.access (value doesn't matter) then the access rights check never fails. After System Manager sets ATA keys it removes this repository node from LPAR 1. If we add this repository node again or patch System Manager so it's not removed then we will be able to access all storage regions of all storage devices.
ALL storage accesses from LPAR 1 are allowed
If (flags & 0x100000002) != 0 then access rights check is skipped !!!.

 I tested on HV 3.41 with flags 0x2 and got access to regions which were denied by policy (LV1_DENIED_BY_POLICY result).

Storage Device Partition Table

Each storage device has a Partition Table
Partition Table contains information about each region on the storage device

/dev/eflash1 and /dev/rflash1

These LPAR 1 devices access region 0 of FLASH storage device.
/dev/rflash1 is 16MB large
There is no file system on /dev/rflash1
There is some sort of TOC (Table Of Contents) stored in it. It contains file names, offsets and sizes.
On /dev/rflash1 you will find lv0, lv1ldr, lv2_lernel.self and all the other important SELFs.
The files are encryted of course.

Content of /dev/rflash1 (FLASH storage device region 0, size 16 MB)

There is a main TOC which describes different regions on /dev/rflash1
It seems that TOC 0xC0000 and TOC 0x7C0000 contain the same files but from different SDK versions.
TOC 0xC0000 is SDK version 3.41 and TOC 0x7C0000 is SDK version 3.30 (look at the content of files sdk_version).
I guess it's because when i bought my PS 3 Slim it had Firmware 3.30 and i updated it to 3.41 for PSGroove.
TOC on /dev/rflash1 is used by HV Processes to locate files and load them into memory, e.g. SPU modules. E.g. Process 6 loads spu_utoken_processor.self to decrypt and verify user tokens or SPL which runs in Process 5 loads spp_verifier.self from there in order to decrypt and verify profile files. And Update Manager stores e.g. there files.

TOC Entry

A TOC entry is 0x30 bytes large.

offset 0x0 - relative offset from this TOC to entry data

offset 0x8 - entry data size

offset 0x10 - entry name (max 32 characters)

/dev/rflash1_1x and /dev/rflash_1xp

These LPAR 1 devices access region 5 of UNKNOWN storage device.
In region 5 of UNKNOWN storage device is e.g. LINUX image stored.

GameOS's dev_flash

dev_flash has FAT16 file system.
Accesses to GameOS's dev_flash are routed to UNKNOWN storage device region 2
To decrypt sectors read from this region use as flags 0x4 !!! Without using flags 0x4 the sectors will be encrypted.
The sectors are decrypted not by GameOS but by ENCDEC device.

Here is a snippet from raw dev_flash dump made with HV call lv1_storage_read (flags 0x4) from GameOS:

Enqueueing and Scheduling of Storage Requests

HV uses a simple FIFO scheduling algorithm for Storage Requests and a request timeout.
Each storage device has a table of size 16 to store incomming and pending Storage Requests
ENCDEC storage device has a table of size 32 to store incomming and pending Storage Requests
When a new Storage Request is submitted e.g. by HV call lv1_storage_read or lv1_storage_write, the table is scanned for a free slot, if there are no pending Storage Requests then the Storage Request is executed immediately
When a Storage Request is completed, the finished Storage Reuqest is passed to function storage_device_async_request_complete and the table of Storage Requests is scanned again for the next pending Storage Request which will be executed
There are 2 types of Storage Requests: Read/Write (1) and Device Command (2).
Read and Write Storage Requests use the same HV function of a Storage Device to enqueue the request. Before Write Storage Request is inserted into the Request Table of a Storage Device, the flags parameter passed e.g. in lv1_storage_read or lv1_storage_write is ored with 0x8. That is how HV differentiates between Read and Write Storage Requests.

Storage Device Request Table

Each request slot is of size 0x58

Request Slot

offset 0x0 - state: 1 - free, 2 - ? (4 bytes)

offset 0x4 - type: 1 - Read/Write, 2 - Command, 0x86 - ENCDEC command (4 bytes)

offset 0x10 - request tag (8 bytes)

offset 0x20 - start sector (8 bytes)

offset 0x28 - sector count (4 bytes)

ENCDEC Storage Device

Request Table begins at offset 0xDC0 of ENCDEC storage device.

RBD Storage Device

Request Table begins at offset 0x1808 of RBD storage device.

FLASH Storage Device

Request Table begins at offset 0x18F0 of FLASH storage device.

HDD Storage Device

Request Table begins at offset 0x17E8 of HDD storage device.

Encryption and Decryption of Storage Devices

HDD

ENCDEC peripheral device is used for HDD encryption/decryption
Write request is first passed to ENCDEC device for encryption. When ENCDEC device is done, it calls a callback and passes the encrypted data to the callback. The callback writes the encrypted data with ATA WriteDMAExt command to HDD.
When a storage device request is processed by HV, Storage Subsystem checks if cryptography is enabled for the storage device.
HV checks 1 byte of data owned by the storage device and when the value of this flag is not 0 then it uses encryption/decryption.
By setting this flag to 0 at runtime, encryption/decryption of storage devices can be disabled at runtime.
We could patch lv1.self so that encryption/decryption of storage devices is disabled permanently.
HDD sectors can be both decrypted and encrypted with HV calls

UFS2

Superblock starts at sector 0x80.
At the end of the superblock structure you will find UFS2 signature 0x19540119.

Here is the decrypted superblock of UFS2 filesystem:

SPE

There are 3 SPE classes.

The HV call lv1_construct_logical_spe can create LogicalSPE, SPEType1 and SPEType2 objects.

The syscall 0x10040 creates only SPEType1 objects.

The SPEType1 and SPEType2 objects cannot be created when isolation mode is disabled. The right most bit of repository node sys.lv1.iso_enbl is checked and when it's not 1 then the SPEType1 and SPEType2 objects cannot be created. In LPAR 1, this check succeedes always. Only in LPARs different from 1, the repository node sys.lv1.iso_enbl is checked.

LogicalSPE

SPE type = 0

Objects of this class are used e.g. on Linux.

vtable

0x00358360 (3.15)

offset 0x20 - pointer to TOC entry of interrupt handler for SPE

Member variables

offset 0x38 - pointer to LPAR obj that owns this SPE obj

offset 0x78 - table of pointers to Outlet objects (3 * 8 bytes, one for each Class 0-2)

offset 0xB0 - pointer to VAS object

offset 0xC8 - pointer to Logical PPE object

offset 0xE0 - SPE id

offset 0x1A0 - pointer to MMIO Memory Region object

offset 0x1A8 - pointer to Shadow Registers Memory Region object

SPE Register Shadow Area

HV createas a SPE Register Shadow Area for each contstructed SPE.
The area is 1 4Kb page of physical memory.
When SPE state changes then HV updates data in this area.
The value of shadow_addr that is returned by lv1_construct_logical_spe is a LPAR start address of this area and it cannot be accessed until it's mapped in the HTAB.
The SPE Register Shadow Area may be mapped only with read-only page protection or else HV call lv1_insert_htab_entry fails. I tested it with PSGroove and could map the whole memory range and read it after i constructed SPE of type 1 with lv1_construct_logical_spe.
The shadow_addr is also returned by syscall_10040 (that creates SPE of type 1) but it returns already mapped Process address so HV Processes do not have to map it in HTAB.
When an isoated SPU is done, HV Processes checks the value at offset 0x30 to determine if the SPU execution was successfull or not.
GameOS checks also the value at offset 0x30 in the SPE Shadow Area.
When GameOS creates SPE of type 1 then it maps only SPE Register Shadow Area into it's address space.

SPE Register Shadow Area Offsets

0x30 - SPU_Status register value (4 bytes)

0xF10 - ?

0xF18 - ?

Stop Code

The high-order 16 bit of SPU_Status register value is a Stop Code.

Here is the list of Stop Codes i extracted from HV Processes which read the value at offset 0x30 when SPU is done:

Value	Description
0xA	Success
0xC	Access Violation (LPAR auth id error)
0xE	?
0xF	Revoked
0x12	Invalid Parameter
0x13	?
0x17	Invalid Parameter
0x25	?

metldr

Loading metldr

Physical/Virtual memory address of an isolation module that should be loaded by metldr is written into SPU register SPU_In_Mbox. The SPU register SPU_In_Mbox is 32bit, so 64bit memory address is written in 2 steps.
MFC relocation is turned off by clearing R-bit in SPU register MFC_SR1. By doing this, HV enables real address mode for MFC of SPU.
On GameOS, it also works with relocation on. You just have to initialize SLB of SPU and insert valid SLB entries.
Physical/Virtual memory address of metldr is written to SPU registers Sig_Notify1 and Sig_Notify2
Isolation load request is enabled by writing SPU register SPU_PrivCntl
Isolation load request is made by writing value 0x3 into SPU register SPU_RunCntl

VUART

VUART is a bi-directional communication link. A VUART object has a peer VUART object.

Data written to a VUART object is stored NOT in the data buffer of the VUART object but in the data buffer of the peer VUART object.

VUART table

Every LPAR has a VUART table. A VUART table has 256 entries. Each entry is a pointer to a VUART object that implements VUART interface.

0x00677218 (3.15) - address of VUART table of LPAR 1

Here is the list of all VUART objects in LPAR 1 i found in HV 3.15:

0x006ABD90 - VUART 0
0x006ABEB0 - VUART 1
0x006A3CB0 - VUART 2
0x006A3DD0 - VUART 3
0x000A3410 - VUART 5
0x000A3250 - VUART 6

VUART [0-3] are used by /dev/sc[0-3] respectively.

VUART [0-3] are linked to VUART objects of different type i could not yet identify. These unknown VUART objects use eieio opcode a lot. So i think, they communicate with hardware peripheral.

A write/read to/from /dev/sc[0-3] is a write/read to/from VUART.

0x00762AA8 (3.15) - address of VUART table of LPAR 2

Here is the list of all VUART objects in LPAR 2 i found in HV 3.15:

0x00126660 - VUART 0
0x000A3010 - VUART 2

VUART 0 and VUART 2 of LPAR 2 are created by Process 9 during LPAR construction.

Guest OS VUART 0 (AV Manager)

All data sent to VUART 0 in LPAR 2 is written into the data buffer of VUART 5 of LPAR 1.

VUART 5 of LPAR 1 is accessed by Process 9 in LPAR 1 through the file /proc/partitions/2/vuart/0.

Process 9 of LPAR 1 uses RSX syscalls to access RSX driver and memory mapped device access (/dev/ioif0).

Guest OS VUART 2 (System Manager)

All data sent to VUART 2 in LPAR 2 is written into the data buffer of VUART 6 of LPAR 1.

VUART 6 of LPAR 1 is accessed by Process 9 in LPAR 1 through the file /proc/partitions/2/vuart/2.

System manager supports 62 (0-61) service ids.
Process 9 has a SID table. SID table has 62 entries.
Each entry is a pointer to a function responsible for processing SID packets.

A/V Manager

A/V Manager is running in Process 9 of HV.
It communicates with Guest OS through /proc/partitions/0/vuart/0 file.
GameOS accesses A/V Manager through syscalls 367 - 370.
PS2 Soft EMU accesses A/V Manager also.

System Manager (SM)

System Manager (SM) is running in Process 9 of HV.
It communicates with Guest OS through /proc/partitions/2/vuart/2 file.
GameOS accesses SM through syscalls 372 - 415

System Manager class

Member variables

offset 0x10 - LPAR state (8 bytes)

offset 0x68 - LPAR auth id

offset 0x70 - LPAR name

offset 0x90 - LPAR image path

offset 0x1C0 - LPAR ability (8 bytes)

Types of System Manager

There are 6 different SM types
When Process 9 starts it reads profile file, by default DEFAULT.SPP, by sending requests to SPL (Secure Profile Loader) and constructs System Managers listed in this profile file.
So, the profile file controls which System Manager types are available later.

Active System Managers in HV dump 3.15

There are 4 active SMs in HV dump.

GameOS file image lv2_kernel.self is stored on /dev/rflash1
Linux file image is stored on /dev/rflash_1x or /dev/rflash_1xp

Booting Linux LPAR through System Manager

To boot Linux LPAR from GameOS when Linux support was not removed (Ability Mask of PS3 System Manager needs patching !!!):

Send SID packet SET_NEXT_OP with operation OP_LPAR_REBOOT and the index of Linux system manager to System Manager (VUART 2)
Send SID packet REQUEST with type SHUTDOWN to System Manager (VUART 2)
Execute lv1_panic HV call in GameOS

It should also work when Linux support was removed but Linux system manager was not removed from Process 9 and also assumed that a Linux kernel image is stored at the right place in /dev/rflash_1x.

It's just a theory, nothing else, that i gathered during HV reversing. It needs a practical proof. Unfortunately, i don't have access to Hypervisor.

Booting modified and reencrypted lv2_kernel.self

The System Manager of GameOS sends the path to lv2_kernel.self to SLL (Secure LPAR Loader) and SLL loads it from FLASH device file /dev/rflash1
I stored a new lv2_kernel.self on FLASH directly by writing FLASH from GameOS. It't risky but if you know what you are doing then it's safe. I warned you guys. You could brick your PS3.
Then i added a new TOC entry to FLASH device which points to the new lv2_kernel.self
I patched the path to lv2_kernel.self in the System Manager of GameOS so it points to my new GameOS kernel (You need HV rights to do it)
Then i rebooted GameOS without rebooting HV, so the patched file path should not change
This method has the advantage that when the new lv2_kernel.self won't work you can just reboot HV and it will load the original lv2_kernel.self again
lv2_kernel.self can be also loaded from GameOS dev_flash. For that, you have to change the path to lv2_kernel.self in default.spp from /flh/os/lv2_kernel.self to /local_sys0/lv2_kernel.self and store lv2_kernel.self on dev_flash.

AV Manager

All data sent to VUART 0 in LPAR 2 is written into the data buffer of VUART 5 of LPAR 1.

VUART 5 of LPAR 1 is accessed by Process 9 in LPAR 1 through the file /proc/partitions/2/vuart/0.

During initialization, AV Manager opens /dev/ioif0 device and maps different address ranges of the device into address space of Process 9
/dev/ioif0 is NOT opened and mapped if the value of repository node lv1.rsx.enable is less than 1
/dev/ioif0 is mapped with READ/WRITE protection
File descriptor of /dev/ioif0 in Process 9 is 4
AV Manager supports a lot more commands than used on Linux
Every command is implemented by a class

Mapped Address Ranges From /dev/ioif0

The base address of /dev/ioif0 is 0x28000000000. The device supports only mmap system call, it cannot be read or written. It also doesn't support ioctl.

Index	Absolute Address Range	Size	Mapped Address in Process 9 Address Space
0	0x28000000000 - 0x28000002000	0x2000	0xA0019000

Process socket services

Function ID and Packet ID

Processes 3, 5 and 6 provide services (functions) to other Processes through sockets (something like RPC).
A service is identified by a function ID.
Each process has a hash table which maps a function ID to socket port ID.
Services (functions) can be further differentiated by a packet ID.
To request a service, a Process sends a packet with specified function and packet ID to the Process that provides the service.
A process that provides a service (function) has a table of objects which handle different packet IDs.
Services are synchronous, a client sends a request and waits for a response.
If a Process requests a service that is located in the same Process then the service is called directly and sockets are not used !!! (e.g. SLL requests from DM creating VUART port during GameOS loading, SLL and DM are in the same Process, so SLL calls DM directly)

This service uses SC Manager Set RTC (0x9008) service.

0x3002 - Get Time

This service uses SC Manager Get Time (0x9009) service.

0x3003 - Set Time

This service uses SC Manager Set Time (0x900A) service.

Storage Manager service is used e.g. by syscall 864 and syscall SYS_SS_MEDIA_ID
GameOS's VSH uses syscall 864
Storage Manager executes SPU module sb_iso_spu_module.self
Storage Manager communicates with devices /dev/encdec0 and /dev/rbd0 from LPAR 1
2nd value from repository node bus1.id is used by Storage Manager
Storage Manager communicates with sb_iso_spu_module.self through a shared DMA memory buffer and SPU MBox
EID4 data is passed to sb_iso_spu_module.self module.

SB Isolation DMA Buffer Header

struct sb_iso_header
{
    u32 seqno;
    u32 mbmsg;
    u32 cmd;
    u32 cmd_size;
    u8 cmd_data[0];
}

seqno has values 0x03 to 0x08. It is incremented when sending and receiving data from the spu.

0x5001 - Set Encdec Key

This service allows you to set ENCDEC keys with index 0xC - 0xF
By patching HV process 6 it would be possible to set default ENCDEC key (used for HDD encryption) to a value different from the default one !!! It means we could encrypt our HDDs with a key we want !!!
The service accepts 2 parameters: a key (max 24 bytes) and a key length (in bits)
Valid key length values: 0x40, 0x80 and 0xC0
The service returns the ENCDEC key index used for the key
ENCDEC supports upto 16 keys !!!
Storage Manager in HV process 6 has a bit mask of size 2 bytes which indicates which keys are used currently.

Per default, keys with index 0x0 - 0xB are not free. But we could patch it also.

0x5002 - Set/Delete ATA (Encdec) Key

Sets/Deletes ATA (Encdec) Key
The service has only one parameter of size 8 bytes: 0x100 - Set ATA Key and 0x110 - Delete ATA Key.
This service is used e.g. by System Manager in HV Process 9 during LPAR booting.
SPM doesn't allow GameOS to use this service.
3 possible key lengths: 0x40, 0x80 and 0xC0
This service communicates with /dev/encdec0 device.
The service uses ENCDEC device commands EdecKgen1 (0x81), EdecKgen2 (0x82), EdecKset (0x83) and EdecKgenFlash (0x84).
This service communicates also with /dev/rbd0 device.
I guess that the ATA key is stored encrypted in EID4 data.
This service is used by LPAR Manager in HV Process 9 during LPAR 2 loading.
I tested this service on Linux with ps3dm-utils and after deleting ATA key the sectors on VFLASH or HDD were NOT decrypted by HV
After setting ATA key again, the sectors were encrypted/decrypted by HV again
Deleting an ENCDEC key is nothing more than setting key with all bytes set to 0x0 !!!
On old PS3s which didn't use HDD for VFLASH, HV uses 2 ENCDEC keys, one for HDD (key index 1) and one for VFLASH (key index 0). On new PS3s which use HDD for VFLASH, only one ENCDEC key is used (key index 1).

0x11*	Delete ATA Key (index 1)

0x5003 - Get Random Number

I have got access to Get Random Number service through DM and tested it with PSGroove
The service returns 192-bit random numbers
It has no input parameters except those in SS packet header
Storage Manager communicates with device /dev/encdec0.
This service is used e.g. by USB Dongle Authenticator to generate the body of a challenge or by GameOS to generate hardware random numbers.

0x5004 - Authenticate BD Drive

Used by LPAR Manager in HV Process 9 during LPAR 2 loading and unloading.
Used by SLL Load GOS service (0x14004) in HV Process 3 during PS2EMU loading and by SLL Unload GOS service (0x14005) during PS2EMU unloading.
The service expects one additional parameter.
The service is used during loading of LPAR 2 to authenticate BD drive and during unloading LPAR 2 to reset BD drive.
The service uses isolated SPU module sv_iso_spu_module.self for BD drive authentication.
The service communicates with LPAR 1 device /dev/rbd0 through ATAPI interface.

Update Manager service is accessed by GameOS syscall 863

0x6001 - Update Package Tophalf

The result of the request can be checked by reading the value of repository node ss.update.request.<Request ID> periodically

0x6002 - Inspect Package Tophalf

I have got access to this service through DM and tested it with PSGroove
This service can tell you if a package can be installed or not, the service just checks a package but does not install it
Packages can be updated without GameOS !!! I'm using only HV calls and communicate directly with Dispatcher Manager and Update Manager
I just sent a whole SCE package to GameOS through network, created a LPAR memory region and stored the file there
It expects a SCE package that can be easily extracted from PUP file
The data of SCE package can be passed either in SS packet itself or through LPAR memory of requester
When the data of SCE package is too large for SS packet (SS packets are sent through DM, GameOS and DM communicate through VUART that has only 0x800 bytes buffer) then the data of SCE package has to be passed through GameOS LPAR memory. The requester sends a vector of LPAR memory addresses where the data of SCE package is stored and Update Manager maps it into the address space of Process 6
E.g. Revoke List packages can be sent in SS packets because they are small (about 0x200 bytes). All other packages are too big to sent them in SS packets
The service is actually split into 2 halfs: Top-Half and Bottom-Half
The Top-Half is executed synchronously with service request and it sends a reply to the requester
In the reply sent by Top-Half a Request ID (8 bytes) is returned to the requester
Request ID is calculated by using SHA-1
After the Top-Half is done, a reply is sent to the requester but the service just checked some input parameter upto now and the passed SCE package was not really checked yet
The Bottom-Half is called asynchronously to the request, it does the real job, it checks the passed SCE package.
The result of the request can be checked by reading the value of repository node ss.inspect.request.<Request ID> periodically
I successfully tested this service with RL_FOR_PROGRAM.img from 3.50 PUP file and the service returned Success, so theoretically i could install this package on my PS3. But of course i want to downgrade and NOT to upgrade.

0x6003 - Get Package Info

I have got access to this service through DM and tested it with PSGroove
The service expects one additional parameter: package type (valid values are 1-9)
The service returns the version (8 bytes) of a package type installed

Here are the versions of packages installed on my PS3:

Package Type	Returned Version	Description	Package Name in PUP File
1	0x0003004100000000	Core OS Package	CORE_OS_PACKAGE.pkg
2	0x0003004100000000	Revoke List Package for Program	RL_FOR_PROGRAM.img

Decrypting and Extracting Packages with spu_pkg_rvk_verifier.self

I have managed to decrypt and extract Revoke List Packages 3.41 and 3.50 by using SPE HV calls and spu_pkg_rvk_verifier.self
Important: Parameters to SPU module shuold be aligned, i used cache line alignment, don't know exactly alignment requerements. Or else some very strange things could happen. E.g SYSCON firmware was only partially decrypted when i used no cache line alignment.
I have also managed to decrypt and extract Core OS Packages 1.10, 1.18 Debug, 2.40, 2.80, 3.15, 3.41 and 3.50 by using SPE HV calls and spu_pkg_rvk_verifier.self but it's compressed with zlib.Update Manager in Process 6 from 3.15 uses zlib 1.2.3 inflate to decompress it after it was decrypted and then it stores the data to flash memory.
I decompressed the decrypted Core OS Packages with zlib.
I am able now to decrypt and decompress all Core OS Packages
The decrypted and decompressed package CORE_OS_PACKAGE.pkg looks exactly like it's stored on flash.
I also decrypted BD Firmwares BDIT_FIRMWARE_PACKAGE.pkg and BDPT_FIRMWARE_PACKAGE.pkg successfully. The firmware is not compressed.
I also decrypted Bluetooth Firmware BLUETOOTH_FIRMWARE.pkg successfully. The firmware is encrypted and compressed.
I also managed to decrypt System Controller Firmware SYS_CON_FIRMWARE_01050101.pkg from 3.41.
Core OS Package 3.50 contains a new isolated SPU module that is not contained in older versions. The SPU module is manu_info_spu_module.self.
Here links to PS3 Firmwares: [1] and [2]

0x6005 - Extract Package Tophalf

The result of the request can be checked by reading the value of repository node ss.extract.request.<Request ID> periodically

0x600B - Read EEPROM

I have got read access to EEPROM of Update Manager through DM and tested it with PSGroove
I read PRODUCT_MODE from it successfully, PRODUCT_MODE = 0x000000FF
The service expects one additional parameter: offset (4 bytes)
The service accepts only some predefined offsets
The service returns the specified offset and the value at this offset

EEPROM Offset Table

Here is the table of EEPROM offsets that can be accessed through Update Manager (3.15):

Offset	Size	Description
0x48C06	1	FSELF Control Flag
0x48C07	1	Product Mode (UM allows to read this offset, it can be also written but only when already in product mode)
0x48C0A	1	QA Flag
0x48C13	1	Device Type
0x48C30	1	SPE number Usally 0x06, can be set to 0x07 to enable the 8 SPE
0x48C42	1	HDD Copy Mode
0x48C50	0x10	Debug Support Flag
0x48C60	1	Update Status
0x48C61	1	Recover Mode Flag
0x48D3E	0x50	QA Token (UM doesn't allow access to this offset but SC Manager can read/write it)

0x600C - Write EEPROM

Writting to EEPROM of Update Manager is also possible through DM
Tested this service successfully with QA flag

0x6010 - Check Integrity

This service checks integrity of important files stored on /dev/rflash1, e.g. lv0 or lv1
The service is used e.g. by System Manager
When product mode is NOT 0xFF then check is skipped !!!

0x6011 - Get Applicable Version

I have got access to this service through DM and PSGroove and tested it
The service expects one additional unknown parameter of size 4 bytes, it has to be 0x00000001 or else the service fails

Here is the return value:

00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 03 00 20 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 01

BD Firmware Update

Update Manager in HV Process 6 updates BD firmware through ATAPI Interface of /dev/rbd0 device.
BD firmware is sent to BD drive by using ATAPI Write Buffer (0x3B) command with Mode 0x07 (Download microcode with offsets and save) and Buffer ID 0x00.
The current BD drive firmware version and hash is also stored by and retrieved from SYSCON by using SC Manager Get/Set Region Data (0x9006/0x9007) service. After successfull BD firmware update, Update Manager sends the new firmware version and hash to SYSCON.
BD firmware package is decrypted, SCE header size + 0x80 bytes are skipped and data beginning with copyright message is sent to BD drive.
BD firmware is sent packet wise, one packet is at most 0x8000 bytes.
After each sent packet, Update Manager checks the result by using ATAPI Request Sense (0x3) command.
Theoretically, BD firmware update can be done also from GameOS by using ATAPI interface of the BD drive.

Detecting BD Drive Type, Generation and Revision

To detect BD drive type, Update Manager uses ATAPI Inquiry command.
To detect BD drive generation, Update Manager uses ATAPI Mode Sense 10 command.

0x9000 - SC Manager

SC Manager cannot be accessed directly by using DM unfortunately (DM discards all requests) but it's used by other services that are accessable through DM
E.g. Update Manager services "Read EEPROM" and "Write EEPROM" send requests to SC Manager services "Read EEPROM" and "Write EEPROM"
SC Manager runs sc_iso.self
With full HV rights you could patch Dispatcher Manager and enable access to SC Manager from GameOS.

0x11000 - SPM (Security Policy Manager)

Packet ID is mapped to SS id
SS id value range is 0x0 - 0x84

Packet ID	Description
0x11001	Request
0x11002	Load Additional Policy

0x14000 - SLL (Secure LPAR Loader)

SLL opens lv2_kernel.self, parses ELF header and determines the size of initial memory region for GameOS LPAR
SLL creates a memory region for GameOS LPAR by using syscall 0x10000.
SLL opens /proc/partitions/<LPAR id>/mem file and maps it with mmap syscall into it's address space.
Then it authenticates, decrypts and copies the SELF file of GameOS to LPAR's memory region by using SPE syscalls 0x10040 and 0x10042.
Linux is not loaded by SLL, it's loaded in Process 9 by Linux System Manager
GameOS file image lv2_kernel.self is stored on /dev/rflash1

Packet ID	Description
0x14004	Load GOS
0x14005	Unload GOS

0x15003	Get Contents Size/Get Contents
0x15009	Get Component

SPP File

The file is encrypted but can be read by using 0x15003 service of SPL
SPL reads SPP file, parses SPP header and checks some fields
SPP file is verified and decrypted by SPU module spp_verifier.self that cab be executed with HV SPE calls
Even old default.spp from PS3 Firmware 1.10 can be decrypted with spp_verifier.self from PS3 Firmware 3.41
Header format version should be 5 or else the header check fails
If (SPP header size % 256 != 0) then header check fails
Finally i was able to decrypt profile file from 3.41 but by using SPE HV calls only !!! And Linux Manager is still there !!!
The decrypted file is a binary file

Here are the contents of DEFAULT.SPP from 3.41.

Here are the contents of DEFAULT.SPP 1.18 Debug from 1.18 Debug Firmware.

SPP Header

offset 0x2 - header format version (2 bytes)

offset 0x4 - header size (4 bytes)

offset 0x18 - number of segments (4 bytes)

Segments

Segments follow after the header
SPP file contains several segments.

Here is the list of profile segments from 3.41:

0x17001 - Read EID Data Size By Index

I have got access to this service through DM and tested it
This service is used e.g. by Update Manager, User Token Manager or Storage Manager
The service expects 2 additional parameters, each parameter is 8 bytes
I tested it with values: 0x0, 0x4 and 0x1000 for the 1st parameter. I extracted this values from HV Processes which use this service
The 2nd parameter is not used in a request but in a response. It contains EID size.

Index	Size Of Data	Description
0	0x860	Used e.g. by Update Manager to decrypt update packages
4	0x30	Used e.g. by Storage Manager
0x1000	0xe960	metldr

0x17002 - Read EID Data By Index

I have got access to this service through DM and tested it
This service is used e.g. by Update Manager, User Token Manager or Storage Manager
The service expects 2 additional parameters, each parameter is 8 bytes
The 1st parameter is same as the 1st parameter of service Read EID Data Size By Index
The 2nd parameter is EID Data Size that is returned by the service Read EID Data Size By Index
The returned data is some binary data.
The data returned by the service with 1st parameter set to 0x0 or 0x4 is from file eEID stored on FLASH storage device region 0.
The data returned by the service with 1st parameter set to 0x1000 contains string metldr.
E.g. EID0 data is passed by Update Manager to SPU module spu_token_processor.self when Update Manager loads and executes it with syscall 0x10043.
E.g. EID4 data is passed by Storage Manager to SPU module sb_iso_spu_module.self.

0x17004 - Read System Data

Reads data from cISD or cCSD files stored on /dev/rflash1.
E.g. Gelic MAC address is stored in file cISD.

0x17007 - Read System Data From EEPROM

Reads data from SC EEPROM
An index is passed to the service. The index is mapped to a specific SC EEPROM offset.

Here is the list of possible EEPROM offsets from HV 3.15:

Index	SC EEPROM Offset	Size Of Data
0	0x48D20	6
1	0x48D28	6

0x17016 - Read cISD

Returns data cISD that is stored on FLASH storage device region 0

0x17017 - Write cISD

Writes passed data to the region of FLASH memory where cISD data is stored !!!

0x18000 - DM (Dispatcher Manager)

Dispatcher Manager runs in Process 3.
When SLL (Secure LPAR Loader) creates GamesOS LPAR and loads it, it also creates a VUART with port number 10 owned by GameOS using a service provided by Dispatcher Manager (0x18001 - Construct Service Port).
Dispatcher Manager communicates with GameOS through this VUART. It opens the file /proc/partitions/<LPAR id>/vuart/10. When the file /proc/partitions/<LPAR id>/vuart/10 is opened by Dispatcher Manager, the Hypervisor creates a peer VUART which is connected to the GameOS's VUART 10.
After that Dispatcher Manager reads requests from this VUART sent by GameOS and dispatches these requests to services (functions) provided by Hypervisor Processes through sockets. Through VUART and Dispatcher Manager, the GameOS LPAR has access to all services provided by Hypervisor Processes.
However, the services provided by Hypervisor Processes are protected by Security Policy Manager (SPM). Before Dispatcher Manager routes the requests from GameOS to these services, it consults SPM (by using 0x11001 service of SPM) and checks if the GameOS has access rights to the requested service. If not then the request is not routed.
DM overwrites the LAID sent in SS packet header with the LAID of the LPAR that sent the request. So, no matter what LAID you send in SS packet header, it will be always overwritten with the correct one by DM. That is the reason why e.g. USB Dongle Master Key cannot be decrypted by GameOS without patching DM. But with HV access rights, DM can be easily patched and access to SYSCON can be gained.
Linux LPAR doesn't have a VUART communication link to Dispatcher Manager.
I tested VUART 10 on GameOS with PSGroove and it's there.
On GamesOS, _ss_multiplexer accesses DM (VUART 10)

Packet ID	Description
0x18001	Construct Service Port
0x18002	Destruct Service Port

Dispatcher Manager Messages

Dispatcher Manager Header

Payload follows after header
Payload is a SS packet

struct dispmgr_header

    uint32_t request_size;         /* payload size of request */
    uint32_t response_size;        /* payload size of response */
}

Packet ID - SS ID Mapping

Before DM routes a received request to a service provider (HV Process) it consults SPM
DM sends a request to SPM
Request contains SS ID and Subject ID (laid and paid)
DM obtains SS ID by mapping Packet ID

Here is the mapping table i extracted from HV Process 3 where SPM and DM run:

Packet ID	SS ID
0x2001	0x34
0x2002	0x35
0x2003	0x36

0x24000 - USB Dongle Authenticator

Packet ID	Description
0x24001	Generate Challenge
0x24002	Verify Response

0x24001 - Generate Challenge

I have got access to this service through DM and tested it
The service expects no input parameters except those in SS packet header
It uses 0x5003 service (Generate Random Number) to generate random numbers that are used in challenge body
The length of a challnge body is always 23 bytes, first 3 bytes are always the same: 0x2E 0x02 0x01

Here are hexdumps of some challenge bodies i let 0x24001 service generate:

2E 02 01 72 3A 0A 76 BB 81 CB 29 BC E7 B5 D6 62 7C 0E EE 23 18 A9 1D

2E 02 01 F0 DA 78 D4 1D CB D7 C9 C7 F0 32 F4 2E 92 39 BD 3F 32 93 AA

2E 02 01 3B B2 9D FD A8 83 AF 9A C0 E9 13 BB AE D5 6C 8C 45 2E DE 13

0x24002 - Verify Response

I have got access to this service and tested it with PSGroove
The response body is 25 bytes large
The first 3 bytes have to be 0x2E 0x02 0x02 or else the check fails
The 16 bit at offset 3 is a dongle ID
The dongle ID is checked if it's revoked or not
When the verification succeedes then product mode is set to 1
The service calculates USB Dongle Key from USB Dongle ID and USB Dongle Master Key by using HMAC SHA-1
The service uses HMAC SHA-1 to calculate the correct response body from the challenge body and USB Dongle Key
After that the service compares the calculated response body with the given one that was sent to the service
It seems that laid and paid from SS packet header are used in decryption process

USB Dongle Master Key

USB Dongle Master Key is stored encrypted in Process 6
The encrypted key is 64 bytes large
The decrypted key is 20 bytes large
The USB Dongle Master Key is decrypted first time the service 0x24002 is used
The USB Dongle Master Key is decrypted by using the service 0x200E (Decrypt Master) of Vitual TRM Manager
The decrypted USB Dongle Master Key is stored in Process 6 in clear text (after first usage of this service)
When decryption of USB Dongle Master Key fails then a dummy key is used
Unfortunately, in the HV dump 3.15 the USB Dongle Master Key was not decrypted at the moment of dumping
The first 12 bytes of decrypted USB Dongle Master Key is a magic value: _USB_DONGLE_. After these 12 bytes follows the real USB Dongle Master Key of size 20 bytes. So, if after decryption of USB Dongle Master Key, you see this magic value then the decryption was successfull.

Here is the encrypted USB Dongle Master Key from HV 3.15:

0x22 0xD5 0xD1 0x8C 0xFF 0xE2 0x4F 0xAC 0xEC 0x72 0xA2 0x42 0xA7 0x18 0x98 0x10
0x25 0x33 0xE0 0x96 0xF2 0xC1 0x91 0x0D 0x15 0x23 0xD3 0x07 0x74 0xE7 0x2B 0x72
0xDF 0xA6 0xDD 0xE9 0x68 0x8B 0x76 0x2A 0x6A 0x87 0x51 0x7F 0x85 0x39 0x0B 0xD4
0x20 0x3F 0x46 0x89 0x04 0x82 0xB7 0x30 0x84 0x89 0x4B 0xCC 0x9D 0xB1 0x24 0x7C

This is the decrypted dongle master key:

0x46 0xDC 0xEA 0xD3 0x17 0xFE 0x45 0xD8 0x09 0x23
0xEB 0x97 0xE4 0x95 0x64 0x10 0xD4 0xCD 0xB2 0xC2

This is the decrypted dongle key for dongle ID 0xAAAA which works up to 3.55:

0x04 0x4E 0x61 0x1B 0xA6 0xA6 0xE3 0x9A 0x98 0xCF
0x35 0x81 0x2C 0x80 0x68 0xC7 0xFC 0x5F 0x7A 0xE8

Here is the USB Dongle Master Dummy Key from HV 3.15:

0xD1 0xFC 0x57 0x55 0xBF 0x20 0xFA 0xB2 0xD4 0xA5 0x4A 0x0A 0x0C 0x5D 0x52 0x8E
0xDF 0x66 0xCD 0x74

USB Dongle ID Revoke List

Process 6 contains a revoke list for USB Dongle IDs
The revoke list is 0x2000 bytes large. It's a bitmap.
Each bit represents a USB Dongle ID. If bit is 0 then USB Dongle ID is revoked.

The following USB Dongle IDs are revoked in HV 3.15:

0, 2, 13, 32, 34, 176, 241

0x25000 - User Token Manager

Packet ID	Description
0x25001	Encrypt User Token
0x25002	Decrypt User Token

User Token

Before User Token Manager encrypts a received user token it checks it's format.
User Tokens are processed by spu_utoken_processor.self
Before User Token is processed, User Token Manager reads IDPS by sending SS requests to Indi Info Manager (packet ids 0x17001 and 0x17002). Indi Info Manager runs in HV Process 5.

LPAR Memory Management

Memory Region class

This class is the base class for different memory region types.

vtable

0x003578B0 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0x40 - pointer to LPAR object that owns this memory region

offset 0x48 - type of memory region (8 bytes)

offset 0x50 - LPAR start address of memory region

offset 0x58 - size of memory region (8 bytes)

offset 0x60 - flags (8 bytes)

offset 0xA0 - log2 of page size

Generating New LPAR Memory Region Addresses

generate_new_lpar_mem_region_address(?, memory region size, log2(page size), ?, ?) - 002C82E8 (3.15)

generate_new_lpar_mem_region_address - 002C6570 (3.41)

The function returns a new LPAR memory region address.
This method is used e.g. in all HV calls which create any kind of memory regions, e.g. lv1_allocate_memory, lv1_map_htab, lv1_undocumented_function_114, lv1_construct_logical_spe, lv1_map_device_mmio_region or syscall 0x10040.

Encoding LPAR Memory Region Start Addresses and Sizes

Size of LPAR memory region is encoded in the LPAR memory region start address.
That is why e.g. the LPAR Memory Region Start Addresses of LPAR Memory Region of size 4096 byte begin with 0x300000000000, 0x300000000000 >> 42 = 0xC = log2(4096).
Each LPAR has a counter (8 bytes) which is incremented by 1 every time a new LPAR Memory Region is created.
Before incrementing, the counter is shifted left by log2(LPAR Memory Region Size) and ored with log2(LPAR Memory Region Size) << 42.

LPAR Memory Region Start Address >> 42 = log2(LPAR Memory Region Size)

LPAR Memory Region Start Address = (log2(LPAR Memory Region Size) << 42) |
   (counter << log2(LPAR Memory Region Size))

LPAR Memory Region Address Counter

LPAR Memory Region Address Counter is stored at address: 0x38(LPAR ptr) + 0x9E8
LPAR1's Memory Region Address Counter is at address 0x00677A48 in HV dump 3.15
LPAR2's Memory Region Address Counter is at address 0x007632D8 in HV dump 3.15
LPAR1's Memory Region Address Counter is at address 0x00677A48 in HV dump 3.41
LPAR2's Memory Region Address Counter is at address 0x00161E68 in HV dump 3.41

Physical Memory Region class

This type of memory region is created e.g. in lv1_allocate_memory HV call or in syscall 0x10000.

vtable

0x00357D08 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0xB0 - pointer to object that stores a list of addresses of physical pages owned by this memory region

offset 0xB8 - pointer to LPAR object that owns this memory region

offset 0xC0 - reference counter (8 bytes)

Objects

Here is the list of physical memory region objects i found in HV 3.15.

Address in HV dump	LPAR id	LPAR Start Address	Size	Flags	log2(Page Size)	Physical Page Addresses
0x006B5510	1	0x300000001000	0x1000	0x0	0xC	0x672000
0x006B5E50	1	0x440000040000	0x20000	0x0	0x11	0x6C0000
0x006B6980	1	0x440000060000	0x20000	0x0	0x11	0x6E0000
0x006B7F00	1	0x400000040000	0x10000	0x0	0x10	0x100000
0x003A80F0	2	0x6C0058000000	0x7000000	0x4	0x18	0x1000000 - 0x7000000
0x003BE800	2	0x300000047000	0x1000	0x0	0xC	0x1FA000
0x006BDAA0	2	0x0	0x8000000	0x8	0x1B (single huge page)	0x8000000

So, Linux kernel should be located at physical address 0x8000000 and Linux syscall handler at 0x8000C00. Too bad that the HV dump is not large enough.

GameOS Physical Memory Regions

GameOS allocates nearly all physical memory of PS3 for itself !!! That is why new HV calls lv1_allocate_memory with large memory region sizes will fail.
So when someone wants a large piece of physical memory, he can borrow it from GameOS's LPAR memory region that starts at 0x700020000000. It can be used for example to send update packages to Update Manager which are very large.

Here is the list of physical memory regions of GameOS i found in HV 3.41:

Start Address	Size	Access Right	Max Page Size	Flags	Real Addresses
0x0	0x1000000	0x3	0x18	0x8	0x1000000 - 0x1FFF000
0x500000300000	0xA0000	0x3	0x10	0x8	0x380000 - 0x38F000, 0x3B0000 - 0x3BF000, 0x1E0000 - 0x1FF000, 0x3C0000 - 0x3FF000, 0xFF00000 - 0xFF1F000
0x700020000000	0xE900000 (huge memory region)	0x3	0x14	0x0	0x400000 - 0x5FF000, 0x800000 - 0xFFF000, 0x2000000 - 0xFEFF000

HTAB Memory Region class

This memory region is created when a HTAB is mapped into LPAR's address space. It's created in lv1_map_htab HV call.

vtable

0x00357C98 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0xB0 - pointer to VAS object that owns the HTAB

GameOS HTAB

HTAB of GameOS is already mapped into address space of GameOS so that is why HV call lv1_map_htab will fail until you unmap it with lv1_unmap_htab
Effective address of GameOS HTAB is 0x800000000F000000
Virtual address of GameOS HTAB is 0xF000000
Size of GameOS HTAB is 0x40000
GameOS HTAB supports large pages of size 64K and 1M
GameOS HTAB can be easily dumped by reading 0x40000 bytes at EA 0x800000000F000000

Direct Map Memory Region class

This type of memory region is created in HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114. lv1_undocumented_function_114 allows you to map any memory address into LPAR's memory address.

The HV call lv1_undocumented_function_115 destroys a memory region of this type.
HV allows GameOS to create objects of this type of size 0 only !!! But it can be exploited with a dangling HTAB entry.

Exploiting HV with memory glitching and HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114

Here is a short description of the method i used to exploit HV from GameOS 3.15 and 3.41.

First i used the Geohot's method to create a dangling HTAB entry.
Making memory glitch work on GameOS was the largest of my obstacles but i solved it and i'm able to create a dangling HTAB entry from GameOS within 1-3 minutes.
Then i created many Direct Map Memory Region objects of size 0 with HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114 and checked if they are within the page to which the dangling HTAB entry points to.
When i found one such Direct Map Memory Region object i patched the size of this object to 0x1000. Then i pointed this memory region object to the code of HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114 and patched 4 bytes in this HV call which allows me to create any Direct Map Memory Region objects without any restrictions.
Function LPAR_construct_direct_mapping_mem_region which is used by HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114 has a parameter (register %r9) and when this parameter is not 0 then HV will allow you to create any Direct Map Memory Region objects without restrictions, but unfortunately the HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114 passes 0 in this parameter, so i just patched it.
Then i mapped whole HV memory range with the patched HV call lv1_undocumented_function_114 into the address space of GameOS.
And now you have read/write access to the whole HV.
$ONY could fix this exploit by disallowing creating of Direct Map Memory Region objects of size 0, but i know tons of other HV C++ classes which will allow me to exploit the HV in a similar way, so it wouldn't bring $ONY anything :-) And they have to change member variable offsets in those objects to make sure that i cannot patch them easily :-)

Event Notification

Event Notfication is used e.g. to notify a LPAR about some event, e.g. device interrupt or notify a LPAR about destruction of another LPAR.
For example Process 9 is notified through Event Notification when LPAR 2 is destructed.
During LPAR construction, Process 9 creates an Outlet object with syscall 0x1001A and then passes the outlet ID to the syscall 0x10009 that constructs the LINUX LPAR. In this way Process 9 is notified when LINUX LPAR is destructed.

Outlet class

This is the base Outlet class. There are different types of Outlet and they derive from this base class.

vtable

0x00357DC0 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0x30 - type (8 bytes)

offset 0x38 - pointer to LPAR that owns this Outlet object

offset 0x48 - outlet id (8 bytes)

offset 0x90 - VIRQ assigned to this Outlet object (4 bytes)

Event Receive Port class

This type of Outlet is created e.g. in lv1_construct_event_receive_port and in syscall 0x1001A.
HV calls lv1_connect_irq_plug and lv1_connect_irq_plug_ext assigns a VIRQ to Event Receive Port object.

vtable

0x00357E88

VUART Outlet

HV supports only one VUART Outlet per LPAR
lv1_configure_virtual_uart_irq constructs a VUART Outlet object and passes the address of LPAR's VUART IRQ Bitmap to HV

vtable

0x00357DC0

VUART IRQ Bitmap

At address 0x38(LPAR ptr) + 0x158 is the VUART IRQ Bitmap owned by HV for LPAR (4 * 8 bytes = 256 bits)
At address 0x38(LPAR ptr) + 0x150 is stored the physical address of LPAR's VUART IRQ Bitmap that was passed to lv1_configure_virtual_uart_irq
When a VUART interrupt is generated by HV then first the VUART IRQ Bitmap owned by HV is updated and then this bitmap is copied to LPAR's VUART IRQ Bitmap, so VUART IRQ Bitmap is stored twice, once in HV and once in LPAR, just like IRQ State Bitmap.
VUART IRQ Bitmap is not allowed to cross page boundary of LPAR memory region where it is stored. HV checks it and makes sure that it doesn't happen.
GameOS 3.41 VUART IRQ bitmap is at address 0x80000000003556E8 and of size 32 bytes (256 bits, each bit corresponds to a VUART port).
GameOS 3.15 VUART IRQ bitmap is at address 0x8000000000354768.

Logical PPE

Logical PPE is used for interrupt management of LPAR.
A Logical PPE object is created in syscall 0x10005. It' used e.g. in Process 9 during LPAR construction.
syscall 0x10007 activates a Logical PPE object
0x67F0(HSPRG0) - pointer to currently active Logical PPE object (in HV dump it points to Linux PPE object naturally because the dump was made on Linux, so Linux LPAR was active at that time)
E.g. lv1_get_logical_ppe_id, lv1_start_ppe_periodic_tracer and lv1_set_ppe_periodic_tracer_frequency grab the currently active Logical PPE object

vtable

0x00357DF0 (3.15)

Member variables

offset 0x90 - pointer to an object that contains VIRQ-Outlet mapping table for thread 0

offset 0x98 - pointer to an object that contains VIRQ-Outlet mapping table for thread 1

Objects

Here is the list of Logical PPE objects i found in HV 3.15.

Address in HV dump	LPAR id	PPE id
0x0069C7F0	1	1
0x007A8900	2	1

Virtual IRQ - Outlet Mapping

HV maintains 2 tables per PPE that map a VIRQ to an Outlet object.
The table has 256 entries and is indexed by VIRQ.
Each entry is a pointer to Outlet object.
Each Logical PPE object has 2 tables, one for each thread of Cell CPU.

IRQ State Bitmap

There is one IRQ State Bitmap (256 bits = 32 bytes) per thread of Logical PPE
HSPRG0 value is per thread, so there are 2 HSPRG0 values in HV dump !!!
The IRQ State Bitmap of a thread is stored at -0x68E0(HSPRG0)
When an Event or Interrupt happens then the bitmap at 0x68E0(HSPRG0) is updated
The physical address of LPAR's IRQ State Bitmap of thread is stored at offset -0x68C0(HSPRG0)
The address of LPAR's IRQ State Bitmap is passed to Hypervisor through HV call lv1_configure_irq_state_bitmap
lv1_detect_pending_interrupts returns value of current IRQ State Bitmap.
The IRQ State Bitmap is updated if an Outlet object is assigned to VIRQ and when Outlet generates an event
After IRQ State Bitmap update, it's copied to LPAR's IRQ State Bitmap and a hardware interrupt is generated so that LPAR can read it's IRQ State Bitmap and handle interrupts.
So, IRQ State Bitmap is stored twice, once in HV and once in LPAR, just like VUART IRQ Bitmap.
GameOS IRQ state bitmap is stored at address SPRG0 + 0x1C0 and of size 64 bytes (256 bits state + 256 bits mask) per thread of Cell CPU. So there are 2 IRQ state bitmaps.

0x8941FC0 - physical address of LPAR's IRQ State Bitmap for Thread 0 of LINUX LPAR

0x8948FC0 - physical address of LPAR's IRQ State Bitmap for Thread 1 of LINUX LPAR

System Controller (SC or SYSCON)

Crossreference: gitbrew.org::SYSCON

Data received from SC is sent to a VUART
lv1_get_rtc and syscall 0x10036 communicate with SC VUART 4.

VUART Table

Address of SC VUART Table - 0x00610410 (3.15).
There are 5 VUARTs for SC in HV 3.15

Here is the SC VUART table from HV 3.15:

Index	Address of VUART object in HV dump	Description
0	0x0060FD20	This VUART is connected with the VUART 0 (/dev/sc0) of LPAR 1
1	0x0060FE20	This VUART is connected with the VUART 1 (/dev/sc1) of LPAR 1
2	0x0060FF20	This VUART is not connected to some peer VUART but i guess that it should be connected to VUART 2 (/dev/sc2) of LPAR1
3	0x006124E0	This VUART is connected with the VUART 3 (/dev/sc3) of LPAR 1
4	0x00612DF0	lv1_get_rtc and syscall 0x10036 communicate with this VUART.

Interrupt Handling

spider_sc_interrupt_handler - 0x0020A68C (3.15)

Methods

sc_vuart_4_get_peer_vuart - 0x002ED384 (3.15)

sc_send - 0x0020A908 (3.15)

sc_receive - 0x0020A354 (3.15)

sc_vuart_rx_trigger_callback - 0x002ED470 (3.15)

lv1_get_rtc

lv1_get_rtc communicates with SC VUART 4.
20 bytes are written to the peer VUART of SC VUART 4.
After a request is sent to SC VUART 4, lv1_get_rtc busy waits until SC VUART 4 receive data buffer is not empty.
When SC VUART 4 receive data buffer is not empty, lv1_get_rtc reads 24 bytes from the VUART.

SYSCON Protocol

I was able to enable SYSCON Manager debug messages in HV Process 5
Messages sent to SYSCON are at least 0x10 bytes of size. SC VUARTs check it before sending the messages to SYSCON.
The header size of the SYSCON messages is 0x10 bytes.

Packet Header

Packet header is of size 0x10 bytes.
At offset 0x6 of SYSCON packet is the header checksum which is of size 2 bytes.
The header checkum is just a sum of first 6 header bytes and 0x8000 constant
The 2nd byte in every SYSCON message has to be 1 or else the function sc_send fails.
The word at offset 0x8 is the SC VUART index.
The half-words at offset 0xC and 0xE have to be equal or the function sc_send fails.

struct sc_hdr
{
    uint8_t field0;
    uint8_t field1;          /* always 1 */
    uint8_t field2[4];
    uint16_t cksum;          /* header checksum */
    uint32_t index;          /* syscon index (0 - /dev/sc0, 1 - /dev/sc1, 2 - /dev/sc2, 3 - /dev/sc3) */
    uint16_t size1;          /* body size */
    uint16_t size2;          /* body size */
};

Calculating Packet Header Checksum

/* calculating SC packet header checksum */

/*
 * sc_hdr_cksum
 */
uint16_t sc_hdr_cksum(struct sc_hdr *sc_hdr)
{
    uint8_t *ptr;
    uint32_t sum;

    ptr = (uint8_t *) sc_hdr;
    sum = 0;

    for (i = 0; i < 6; i++)
        sum += *ptr++;

    sum += 0x8000;

    return sum & 0xffff;
}

struct sc_hdr sc_hdr;

memset(&sc_hdr, 0, sizeof(sc_hdr));

sc_hdr.cksum = sc_hdr_cksum(sc_hdr);

/* fill sc header here */

sc_hdr.cksum = sc_hdr_cksum(sc_hdr);

Packet Body

Packet body follows packet header
Packet body size is stored at offset 0xC and 0xE in packet header and is of size 2 bytes

Reading SYSCON EPROM (NVS Service)

Here is a command which is sent to SYSCON to read 1 byte of EPROM at offset 0x48C07 (Product Mode):

Gelic Device

Crossreference: gitbrew.org::Gelic Device

sys.hw.config

Value of the loader parameter "sys.hw.config" controls if Gelic WLAN is enabled or not.
Value of the loader parameter "sys.hw.config" is stored in the repository node "sys.hw.config" too.
If bit 0x40000 is set then LV1 allows using Gelic WLAN interface from LV2.
Value on my PS3 slim 0x4e00ffff0a03bc3c with Gelic WLAN interface disabled. As you can see, the Gelic WLAN interface is disabled and LV1 doesn't allow using of LV1 calls 196 and 195. It returns LV1_CONDITION_NOT_SATISFIED.
GameOS checks bit 0x40000 of the repository node "sys.hw.config" during network initialization and if it's set then LV2 initializes Gelic WLAN interface.
Check your "sys.hw.config" repository node and if bit 0x40000 is set then you are a lucky owner of a PS3 model with the old WLAN interface.
On newer PS3 models, GameOS uses USB interface to communicate with WLAN.
On PS3 models, where bit 0x40000 is NOT set in "sys.hw.config" repository node, the new USB interface is used.

Note:old vs. new: Old == CECHA up to CECHK, New == CECHL and later

Control Interface

HV calls 195 and 196 are used by GameOS to send commands to Gelic device directly.

lv1_undocumented_function_196

Parameters

r3 - LPAR address of data buffer

r4 - size of data buffer

r5 - must be 0

lv1_undocumented_function_195

Parameters

r3 - command (16 bit value)

r4 - command data size

r5 - must be 0

Data Buffer

Data Buffer passed to HV call 196 is divided into 2 parts.
The first 0x800 bytes are for sending and receiving command data
The remaining 0x800 bytes are for event notification.

Command Data Buffer

Every command data sent to Gelic device contains header of size 0xC
After the header follows the command data
After the Gelic device processed the command, it notifies LV2 kernel about command completion by sending an interrupt

Header

Size is 0xc.
Byte order is little-endian.
Header data in a request command buffer is always all 0s.

0x0 - command = request command + 1 (2 bytes)

0x4 - result, 1 - success ??? (2 bytes)

0x6 - body size (2 bytes)

Event Data Buffer

The Gelic device notifies LV2 kernel by sending an interrupt when new events are available
Event Data Buffer has 8 bytes header
The remaining bytes are divided into event slots
Each event slot is of size 64 bytes
Events are in little-endian format

Header

offset 0x0 - GET index (4 bytes)

offset 0x4 - PUT index (4 bytes)

GET index is updated by Gelic driver. The Gelic driver reads events beginning with the event slot at index GET.
PUT index is the index of event entry where next Gelic event will be stored by the Gelic device.
If GET index is equal to PUT index then there are no Gelic events.

GameOS

LV2 syscall 726 sends Gelic device command and blocks until a response from the Gelic device arrives
LV2 kernel uses this LV1 interface to send commands to Gelic device internally too, probably for wireless controllers and Wake On WLAN.
The system call 726 is used heavily by VSH.

Enabling WLAN Gelic On FAT

Linux kernel doesn't use Gelic Device Control Interface like GameOS does it. To get WLAN working on Linux booted with GameOS rights, we have to disable Gelic Device Control Interface first because it's enabled for GameOS by default.

The value of repository node "ios.net.eurus.lpar" controls access to Gelic Device Control Interface. It's a bitmap. The position of a bit corresponds to LPAR id. During GameOS booting, HV process 9 (System Manager) sets bit at postion 2 to 1 which means enable Gelic Device Control Interface for LPAR 2.

To disable Gelic Device Control Interface on Linux, first unload Gelic device driver, then set value of repository node "ios.net.eurus.lpar" to 0 and load Gelic device driver again. After that WLAN should work again but only on FATs.

For PS3 Slim we need a new Linux Gelic device driver which uses Gelic Device Control Interface directly.

USB WLAN Interface (Codename Jupiter 2)

On new PS3 models, WLAN interface is USB.
Good news is that the same commands are used as with LV1 calls 196 and 195.
There are 2 wireless devices: Station and AP.
I got WLAN scan working.

Endpoints

LV2 uses 3 USB endpoints of interface 3,4 and 5 to communicate with WLAN.
Endpoints EP5 IN/OUT, EP6 IN/OUT and EP7 IN/OUT.
WLAN commands are sent to endpoint EP5 OUT with interrupt transfers.
WLAN events and WLAN command responses are received on endpoint EP5 IN with interrupt transfers.
LV2 opens a USB communication pipe to endpoint EP5 IN and EP5 OUT.
In my LV2 3.55 dump, pipe to EP5 IN has id 0x2 and pipe to EP5 OUT has id 0x3. Array of all opened USB pipes is at address 0x80000000004bd000 in my LV2 3.55 dump.
EP5 is used to send commands to Jupiter and receive events from it.
EP6 is used to send/receive data packets to/from the 1st WLAN device.
EP7 is used to send/receive data packets to/from the 2nd WLAN device.

Device Initialization

LV2 does 2 control transfers to EP0 during WLAN initialization
First control transfer sends magic 0x20 data to device as CLEAR_FEATURE request.
Second control transfer reads 0x2 bytes device status. On my PS3 slim, the status data is always 0x2031 if you send the right magic.
Magic data sent in first control transfer is stored in LV2.
If you send wrong magic, the first control transfer will fail !!!
LV2 uses a state machine to initialize the Jupiter device. The state machine has 17 states.

Magic Data in Control Transfer

unsigned char ps3_usb_wlan_magic_data[] = {
	0x76, 0x4e, 0x4b, 0x07, 0x24, 0x42, 0x53, 0xfb, 0x5a, 0xc7, 0xcc, 0x1d, 0xae, 0x00, 0xc6, 0xd8,
	0x14, 0x40, 0x61, 0x8b, 0x13, 0x17, 0x4d, 0x7c, 0x3b, 0xb6, 0x90, 0xb8, 0x6e, 0x8b, 0xbb, 0x1d,
};

Packet Reception

EP6 IN and EP7 IN endpoints are used for packet reception
LV2 sends bulk transfers to both endpoints
4 bulk transfers are sent simultaneously for each enpoint
Every bulk transfer is of size 0x620

LV2 Network Stack

LV2 uses BSD network stack, e.g. struct mbuf
It's almost identical to FreeBSD network stack.

LV2 Network Packet

LV2 network packet is represented by struct mbuf

FIFO Command Buffer

FIFO Control Registers

LV1 call lv1_gpu_context_allocate returns LPAR address of FIFO control registers.
You have to map it into Linux address space before you can access FIFO control registers.
Value of PUT and GET registers are NOT expressed in Linux address space but in RSX address space. You have to convert it to RSX address space.
GET register is read-only and is modified by RSX while it's processing FIFO commands.

Kicking FIFO Command Buffer

As long as values of GET and PUT FIFO control registers are equal, RSX doesn't process commands from the FIFO command buffer.
When the value of PUT register is not equal to the value of GET register, RSX starts processing commands in the FIFO command buffer.
To execute FIFO commands, place them in the FIFO command buffer and change the value of PUT register.

Example How to Use FIFO Command Buffer

Here is a small Linux kernel module which shows you how to use FIFO command buffer on Linux.

RSX allows to create multiple contexts.
This kernel module should run without problems with ps3fb driver already running.
Make sure you unload ps3vram driver before running this module because ps3vram allocates all available RSX memory for itself and because of this, lv1_gpu_memory_allocate will always fail.
This kernel module lets the RSX execute a simple program which contains only NOP (No Operation) commands.

Mode 0x7 (Download microcode with offsets and save) is used e.g. to write BD firmware to BD drive flash

AACS

AACS SPU Module

BD player on GameOS uses AacsModule.spu.isoself (/dev_flash/bdplayer) to perform AACS authentication
Tested on OtherOS++ 3.55
Host certificate, host private key and AACS LA public key are stored encrypted with AES-256-CTR in the SPU module and are decrypted when the SPU module is loaded or when it's accessed first. The AES-256-CTR key and IV are in the SPU module too.

Communication

BD player reads EID3 with Indi Info Manager 0x17001/0x17002 services and passes it to SPU module
EID3 is NEVER used in the SPU module although BD player passes it to the SPU module
Data is exchanged with the SPU module through SPU In Mbox, SPU Out Intr Mbox and a data buffer in XDR memory of size 0x2000 bytes.

Commands

The SPU module supports max 0x78 commands but not all are implemented
After a command is finished by the SPU module, it sends the status of the command to PPU through SPU Out Intr Mbox. Value 0 means success.

Read 4 Bytes from XDR Buffer (0x2)

It just reads 4 bytes of data from the XDR buffer passed to the SPU module.

Init AES_H (0x34)

Initializes AES_H hashing function.

Calculate AES_H 1 (0x35)

Calculates AES_H hash of the data stored in XDR buffer.

Calculate AES_H 2 (0x36)

Calculates AES_H hash of the data stored in XDR buffer.

Generate Host Nonce (0x3c)

Generates a nonce which is returned in command 0x3d

Get Host Nonce and Certificate (0x3d)

The data returned by this command is of size 0x14 (Nonce) + 0x5c (Host Certificate)
The data returned by this command is sent by BD player with SCSI command SEND KEY to BD drive during AACS authentication
Host Certificate is easy to get from the SPU module, e.g. with aacs_module on OtherOS++
The data contains a nonce, host public key and host certificate signature.

Set Drive Nonce and Certificate (0x3e)

Stores BD drive nonce and certificate in local memory of SPU

Verify Drive Certificate (0x3f)

Set Drive Key (0x40)

Sign Host Key (0x44)

Get Host Key (0x45)

Calculate Bus Key (0x46)

Unknown (0x54)

Verify Host/Drive Revocation (0x55)

BD player stores HRL/DRL list entries in XDR buffer and passes it to the SPU module for verification

Terminate Session (0xfefefeff)

AACS SPU module runs and processes commands as long as you need
After a command is complete, the SPU module waits for the next command
This command terminates the current session and stops SPU module

Drive Revocation List (DRL)

SHA1 hash is encrypted/decrypted by SYSCON services 0x9003/0x9004 (Encrypt/Decrypt)
SHA1 hash is read with VTRM service 0x2005 (Retrieve)
SHA1 hash is written with VTRM service 0x2003 (Store With Update)

Content Revocation List (CRL)

SHA1 hash is encrypted/decrypted by SYSCON services 0x9003/0x9004 (Encrypt/Decrypt)
SHA1 hash is read with VTRM service 0x2005 (Retrieve)
SHA1 hash is written with VTRM service 0x2003 (Store With Update)

Host Revocation List (HRL)

Stored in BD drive flash
It can be read/written with SCSI commands READ/WRITE BUFFER. Yeah, it can be written too :D

Read HRL from BD Drive Flash

It seems that BD drive has several HRL in its flash
Empty HRL stored on BD drive flash can be read with SCSI command READ BUFFER by using as mode 0x2, buffer id 0x4 and allocation length 0x40
Current HRL stored on BD drive flash can be read with SCSI command READ BUFFER by using as mode 0x2, buffer id 0x5

VTRM Services

Retrieve (0x2005)

Product mode is NOT required
0x40 bytes of data are read from NOR flash, decrypted by SYSCON and returned to the caller
Used e.g. by GameOS BD player to read SHA1 hashes of DRL and CRL

Backup Flash (0x2012)

Requires enabled product mode or else service returns always error 0x5
Reads and returns data from NOR flash beginning at NOR flash offset 0xec0000

Test with ps3dm-utils:

# enable product mode

# ps3dm_um /dev/ps3dmproxy write_eprom 0x48c07 0x0
/dev/ps3dmproxy: SS retval 0

# ps3dm_vtrm /dev/ps3dmproxy  backup_flash 0 0x200 | hexdump -C

Flash Address Size (0x2016)

Requires enabled product mode or else service returns always error 0x5
Returns 2 64bit values: offset and size of NOR flash region

Test with ps3dm-utils:

# ps3dm_um /dev/ps3dmproxy read_eprom 0x48c07
0xff

# ps3dm_vtrm /dev/ps3dmproxy  flash_addr_size
