For PSPemu on PS3 and PS Vita, the same sort of certificates are contained in PS3 eEID and PS Vita ID Storage, and Kirk commands are implemented to handle them. Moreover, PS3 eEID certificates use almost the same structure and algorithms, whilst PS Vita extends block sizes from 128 to 192 and 256 bits.

== Key 0x054 ==
This key controls what the default background color is set to on initial setup and also denotes what color of shell the board shipped with. It was introduced with 02g and consists of 3 bytes on every retail model except 01g (non-existent) and 05g (4 bytes, needs more research). The first byte has 3 options: 00 sets the default color to the "By Month" option, 01 (or any other byte 1 value that's not 00 or 02) will set the color in hexadecimal order from 1-12.bmp or 13-27.bmp that matches byte 2, 02 (only found on 02g so far) will set the default color to a specified color depending on the value of byte 3 if byte 3 is between 00 and 06 (if byte 3 is 07 or higher, then functionality is the same as setting byte 1 to anything other than 00 or 02). Byte 2 can be any hexadecimal number between 00 and 21, anything higher than 21 will result in a default background of solid white with no visible wave. Byte 3 seems to be linked to the color of the original shell and increments chronologically as more colors were released.
A key 0x054 value of 020002 would be a 02g in Ice Silver with a default background color of 26 (middle dark gray/black option), a value of 010410 would be a Spirited Green system with a default background color of 5 (dark green), and a value of 00001D would be a Charcoal Black system that defaults to the "By Month" color option.

Location[edit | edit source]

PSP[edit | edit source]

IDStorage area is located after the IPL on the NAND at offset 0xC0000.

Description[edit | edit source]

It is used to store low-level information, such as the serial, MAC address, UMD, WLAN and region.

The IDStorage area is an associative array and information is stored using key/value pairs (index/leaf). The IDStorage seems a little coupled to the physical storage as each leaf is mapped to an area of 512-byte, which is equal to the pagesize of the PSP standard NAND flash, and it seems 512-byte page operations are intended.

Structure[edit | edit source]

Idstorage leaves are all 512 bytes. Most IDStorage leaves have a pair, although some do not.

Idstorage leaves indexes are 16-bit integers and are stored in an index table of two NAND pages of 512 bytes.

  • The index is identified by byte 6 of the spare area (0x73).
  • byte 7 is the idstorage version.
  • byte is either 1 or 0 depending on whether the idstorage has been formatted or not, and finally byte 9 indicates if the idstorage is read-only or not.

For example, an index appearing at position 27 (byte 54) in the index table would find its associated data at the NAND offset: 0xC0000 + (27 * 512) = 0xC3600.

Importance in OS[edit | edit source]

As major functions such as UMD decryption, Ad Hoc and DNAS Authentication rely on IDStorage leaves, the loss or corruption of leaves can be crippling to the usability of the PSP. Users are strongly recommended to take a NAND Backup, giving them the opportunity to restore their IDStorage using a tool such as NandTool.

The firmware provides a driver to facilitate manipulations. In PSP: idstorage.prx. In PSVita: idstorage.skprx.

Generation[edit | edit source]

Most of the idstorage generation process is detailed in Despertar Del Cementerio (sources available here: https://github.com/mathieulh/Despertar-Del-Cementerio).

  • some PSP JigKick files contain information on how to (re)generate idstorage leaves
  • DespertarDelCementerio v7 also contains information about idstorage (re)generation.
  • the most significant module used by DCv7 used to do this is idsregeneration.prx

(see DCv7 src code https://github.com/mathieulh/Despertar-Del-Cementerio/tree/master/idsregeneration).

  • you can see a plethora of "templates" which are used for the generation of the idstorage sections.
  • the idstorage regeneration requires 2, probably more parameters -> Region, MAC Address, and likely a timestamp of sorts.
  • on ps3 the generation method wasn't found on the JigKick firmware files (and selfs). however, it seems that factory still does this, but by accessing a server, so the information cannot be deduced anymore unless there's access to the server.
  • together with the idps (called PSID on PSP), the openPSID is also generated on PSP (written to IdStorage).
  • there are 12 sections on PSP, unlike the 11 ones on PS3 EID0.

IDStorage certified sections[edit | edit source]

IDStorage certified sections are a security measure for critical information. For example PSID and OpenPSID are certified (leaves 0x100, 0x101, 0x120, 0x121). For PSPemu on PS3 and PS Vita, the same sort of certificates are contained in PS3 eEID and PS Vita ID Storage, and Kirk commands are implemented to handle them. Moreover, PS3 eEID certificates use almost the same structure and algorithms, whilst PS Vita extends block sizes from 128 to 192 and 256 bits.

Kirk command 0x12 is used to verify IDStorage certificates.

Uses[edit | edit source]

IPL[edit | edit source]

The Stage 2 IPL (main.bin) reads 3 leaves, 0x004, 0x005 and 0x006. These leaves play a significant part in the PSP as they are related to power. In TA-082 and TA-086 PSP's, these leaves are at different locations, causing a brick with the 1.50 IPL.

Chkreg.prx[edit | edit source]

sceChkregGetPsCode[edit | edit source]

Chkreg (chkreg.prx) reads 2 leaves, 0x100 and 0x102 or 0x120 and 0x122.

It gets PSID from the IdStorage and convert it to PsCode.

Example of PSP PsCode: 00 00 00 01 00 03 00 01

The return from sceChkregGetPsCode is determined to be valid or invalid via KIRK command 0x12, just like other functions using leaves 0x100, 0x120.

openpsid.prx[edit | edit source]

sceOpenPSIDGetPSID[edit | edit source]

sceOpenPSIDGetPSID first reads leaf 0x100 or 0x120 into a buffer using sceIdStorageLookup with the following args:

sceIdStorageLookup(0x120, 0x38, buf, 0xB8); // ???offset to check???

The buffer is then sent to KIRK using sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange with the following args:

sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange(0, 0, buf, 0xB8, 0x12);

It sends data to 2 modules: OpenPSID and memab. Once the scrambled buffer has been sent, "some check" is performed.

If sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange is sucessful, this part of sceChkregGetPsCode returns 0, else it returns 0x80000108.

sceOpenPSIDGetOpenPSID[edit | edit source]

OpenPSID (openpsid.prx) reads 2 leaves, both relating to the region: 0x101 or 0x121 and 0x102 or 0x122. The OpenPSID is calculated via the above leaves and sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange.

It first reads 0x101 or 0x121 into a buffer. If this fails it returns 0xC0520001 and reads 0x102 or 0x122 into the buffer. If it fails again, it returns 0xC0520002.

The buffer is then passed to sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange with the following args:

sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange(0, 0, buf, 0xB8, 0x12);

If the sceUtilsBufferCopyWithRange returns 1, OpenPSID returns 0xC0520001, else it returns 0.

Memab[edit | edit source]

Memab (memab.prx) reads 1 leaf, 0x100 or 0x120.

Mgr (mgr.prx) reads 2 leaves, 0x040 and another unknown leaf.

0x040

00000001E0  03 86 00 20 F8 47 90 88-58 99 2E 88 F8 47 90 88  ... .G..X....G..

Another unknown leaf.

Power[edit | edit source]

Power (power.prx) reads 1 leaf, 0x0004. This leaf is related to power and is also read by the IPL.

Umdman[edit | edit source]

Umdman (umdman.prx) reads 5 leafs, 0x102, 0x103, 0x104, 0x105, 0x106, 0x107. The leaf 0x102 is related to the region, and is probably used to determine what UMD video's can be read on the PSP.

USB[edit | edit source]

usb.prx[edit | edit source]

USB (usb.prx) reads 1 leaf, 0x041. This leaf has information on the USB types.

WLAN[edit | edit source]

WLAN (wlan.prx) reads 2 leaves, 0x044 and 0x045.

0x044

0000000000  00 16 FE 86 FA 28                                .....(

These leaves contains the MAC address of the PSP. This can be changed, but does not effect the hardware, only the address displayed under System Information.

Sysconf_plugin[edit | edit source]

Sysconf_plugin (sysconf_plugin.prx) reads 1 leaf, 0x044. This is probably why the VSH displays a different MAC address when leaves 0x044/0x045 are changed.

Vshmain[edit | edit source]

Vshmain (vshmain.prx) reads 1 leaf, 0x046.

0x046

Empty, however vshmain uses the first byte of this leaf to set a param for vshImposeSetParam. 

Key 0x054[edit | edit source]

This key controls what the default background color is set to on initial setup and also denotes what color of shell the board shipped with. It was introduced with 02g and consists of 3 bytes on every retail model except 01g (non-existent) and 05g (4 bytes, needs more research). The first byte has 3 options: 00 sets the default color to the "By Month" option, 01 (or any other byte 1 value that's not 00 or 02) will set the color in hexadecimal order from 1-12.bmp or 13-27.bmp that matches byte 2, 02 (only found on 02g so far) will set the default color to a specified color depending on the value of byte 3 if byte 3 is between 00 and 06 (if byte 3 is 07 or higher, then functionality is the same as setting byte 1 to anything other than 00 or 02). Byte 2 can be any hexadecimal number between 00 and 21, anything higher than 21 will result in a default background of solid white with no visible wave. Byte 3 seems to be linked to the color of the original shell and increments chronologically as more colors were released.

A key 0x054 value of 020002 would be a 02g in Ice Silver with a default background color of 26 (middle dark gray/black option), a value of 010410 would be a Spirited Green system with a default background color of 5 (dark green), and a value of 00001D would be a Charcoal Black system that defaults to the "By Month" color option.

*Shell color entries with question marks are guesses based on release date and special color value and need to be verified.

Legality of distribution[edit | edit source]

There is question as to whether Sony are able to take legal action against those found to be distributing IDStorage leaves among the community, for research, repair, or otherwise. The worry is that the leaves are proprietary data (particularly UMD decryption leaves).
