VSH is the internal name used by Sony for the VShell aka VirtualShell. It then loads up the XMB you know.XrossMediaBar (XMB). This, is a user space executable (vsh.self), loaded by lv2_kernel/sys_init_osd.

from here several other functions/syscalls to other modules are made, e.g. lv2 (SELF decryption), lv1 (Secure_RTC, Storage_Manager, Gelic_Device, BD_Drive) etc.

not much is documented (yet) about this module. Please fill in where possible.
