Editing Talk:SELF File Format

== Authentication ID ==

8 Bytes long, offset 0x80 in the SELF header.

Differences in auth id :

PSP : ? PSP SELF doesn't have the same sort of SELF header (magic = "PSP" instead of "SCE")

PS3 : 1x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx

PSVita : 2x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx

PS4 : 3x xx xx xx xx xx xx xx

<code>sceAppMgrConvertVs0UserDrivePath</code> checks the authentication id to limit mount points.

<code>0x2800000000008000</code> only used by [[SceWebCore]] eboot.bin (NPXS10017 / NPXS10037 on 1.69, replaced later by SceWebKit).

<code>0x2800000000008003</code> seen used by [[SceWebCore]] can access <code>vs0:data/external/cert/</code> and <code>vs0:data/external/webcore/</code>.

<code>0x210000101CD20007</code> seen used by [[PSM]] can access <code>vs0:data/external</code> and <code>vs0:sys/external</code>.

== Relocations ==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Offset !! Size !! Description
|-
| 0x0 || 0x4 || Relocation Type
|-
| 0x4 || 0x4 || Long entry: Addend
|-
| 0x4 || 0x4 || Short entry: 0-19 = Bits 10-29 of offset, 20-31 = addend
|-
| 0x8 || 0x4 || Long entry: Offset
|-
|}

Relocations can be of two types: 8 byte "short" entries or 12 byte "long" entries. The relocation code is the same as ARM ELF format.


Segment start = Buffer address of segment indexed at "Patch segment"

Symbol start = Buffer address of segment indexed at "Symbol segment"

Address to patch = segment start + offset

P = address to patch

S = "Symbol segment" == 15 ? 0 : symbol start

A = addend
