PUP files are update archives for the Vita.
PUP Header[edit | edit source]
A good resource on the PUP header can be found here.
Filename IDs[edit | edit source]
It is a mistake to try to connect a file entry ID to any specific file. A better way of organizing the update contents is through the extracted SCE encrypted file header. Nevertheless, there are certain file entry IDs that have been linked with the same data throughout all observed update packages.
| File Entry ID | Description |
|---|---|
| 0x100 | Version string |
| 0x101 | License XML |
| 0x200 | psp2swu.self, main updater
|
| 0x204 | cui_setupper.self, development updater initializer
|
| 0x400 | Watermark. Same ID for retail PUPs. Different IDs for dev PUPs for each developer. |
| 0x401 | Unknown SCEAS magic file |
| 0x2005 | CP firmware in early debug updates only |
| 0x2006 | CP firmware in debug updates only |
Package Headers[edit | edit source]
Most of the files in the update PUP are SCE encrypted. Each component of the update is broken up into multiple parts, then optionally compressed, and finally encrypted into the SCE file. Right after the SCE header (usually offset 0x400) is the update package header that provides information for piecing the component back together. The contents of this header is as follows:
| Offset | Size | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | 0x4 | Version (0x4) |
| 0x4 | 0x4 | Type ID |
| 0x8 | 0x4 | Flags |
| 0xC | 0x4 | ? |
| 0x10 | 0x8 | Update FW Version |
| 0x18 | 0x8 | Final (decompressed) size |
| 0x20 | 0x8 | Decrypted size |
| 0x28 | 0x8 | ? |
| 0x30 | 0x4 | ? |
| 0x34 | 0x4 | ? |
| 0x38 | 0xC | ? |
| 0x3C | 0x4 | ? |
| 0x40 | 0x8 | ? |
| 0x48 | 0x8 | ? |
| 0x50 | 0x8 | Offset |
| 0x58 | 0x8 | Size |
| 0x60 | 0x8 | Part Index |
| 0x68 | 0x8 | Total Parts |
| 0x70 | 0x8 | ? |
| 0x78 | 0x8 | ? |
Flags[edit | edit source]
There are flags that are set in the package header. Some potential ones are listed here.
| Flag | Description |
|---|---|
| 0x10 | Set when compressed |
| 0x2 | Has multiple parts |
| 0x1 | Set when compressed |
Type ID[edit | edit source]
The type id determines which decryption routine to use in SceSblSsUpdateMgr. There is a truth table to determine which id can be handled by which decryption function. To see how this table is used, check out the example code for decrypting packages.
| Type ID | Func 1? | Func 2? | Func 3? |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | No | No | No |
| 0x1 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x2 | No | No | No |
| 0x3 | No | No | Yes |
| 0x4 | No | No | Yes |
| 0x5 | No | No | No |
| 0x6 | No | No | No |
| 0x7 | No | No | No |
| 0x8 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x9 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0xA | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 0xB | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0xC | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0xD | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0xE | No | No | No |
| 0xF | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x10 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x11 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x12 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x13 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x14 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x15 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 0x16 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 0x17 | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| 0x18 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x19 | Yes | Yes | No |
| 0x1A | No | No | No |
| 0x1B | No | No | Yes |

The type ID is also used to identify the component of the update.

PUP Update Contents[edit | edit source]
Each PUP contain updates for different partitions of the system. Most packages, once decrypted, decompressed, and pieced together are an raw disk image for the partition to update. Sometimes a TAR archive patch is also used along with the disk images but not as often. Sony usually releases three kinds of update files, each to update different components.
full[edit | edit source]
This contains the actual system files. The main components are os0, vs0, and the bootloader partition.
systemdata[edit | edit source]
Systemdata PUPs only update the sa0 partition. It is likely separated from the main update due to it not regularly needing updates and size concerns.
preinst[edit | edit source]
Preinst PUPs only update the pd0 partition. This is the Welcome Park application and the initial setup movie. It is likely separated from the main update because of the size.
Debug[edit | edit source]
Debug updates for PTEL-XXXX and PDEL-XXXX do not separate into three different PUPs. A single PUP will update all components. Additionally updates for PDEL units contains updates for the CP and probably other development unit specific components.
