Adds AUDIT-HLC probes for every path that signals an XEvent or duplicates
its handle, so the round-23 puzzle (waits completing without visible
NtSetEvent/KeSetEvent) can be cross-referenced by underlying X_KEVENT VA
and by primary handle.
* NtCreateEvent_inner: always log kevent_va for handle/VA cross-ref
* XEvent::Set: universal hook prints primary handle + kevent_va + LR;
catches all paths into the event regardless of shim used
* NtSetEvent: extended with PPC back-chain walk for caller's guest_lr
(same idiom as the wait probe), so the signaler function is
immediately identifiable
* NtReadFile / NtReadFileScatter / NtWriteFile: log when signal_event
path fires ev->Set() inline at IO completion (bypasses both
NtSetEvent and KeSetEvent shims)
* CompleteOverlappedEx (kernel_state.cc): log when overlapped event
is signaled at completion
* NtDuplicateObject: log src/dst handle pair (round-24 confirmed silph
event is dup'd before signaling, explaining the handle-mismatch
puzzle between NtSetEvent's `handle=` argument and XEvent::Set's
primary handle())
Result: silph wait at sub_821CB030+0x1B0 on handle F80000A0 is signaled
via NtSetEvent on handle F80000A8 (the duplicate created by sub_8245D9D8
at lr=0x82450DF4 inside the worker chain sub_82450A28 ← 0xA68 ← 0xB68).
Verdict A confirmed: signaler exists and is reachable, but round-17.β
missed it because the search keyed on the wrong handle. No bypass path;
the worker chain is identical between canary and ours-impl, but ours
signals different handles (work-item queue divergence at sub_82452DC0).
Audit-only diagnostic. No semantic changes. Net delta +86 LOC across 7
files. All probes gated on the existing audit_handle_lifecycle cvar
(default off). Tested via Sylpheed boot (35 s, 4 MB log). Audit-handle-
lifecycle-probes branch, local-only.

Xenia Canary - Xbox 360 Emulator
Xenia Canary is an experimental fork of the Xenia emulator. For more information, see the Xenia Canary wiki.
Come chat with us about emulator-related topics on Discord.
For developer chat join #dev but stay on topic. Lurking is not only fine, but encouraged!

Game Compatibility
See the Game compatibility list for currently tracked games, and feel free to contribute your own updates, screenshots, and information there following the existing conventions.
Building
See building.md for setup and information about the
xb script. When writing code, check the style guide
and be sure to run clang-format!
Contributors Wanted!
Have some spare time, know advanced C++, and want to write an emulator? Contribute! There's a ton of work that needs to be done, a lot of which is wide open greenfield fun.
For general rules and guidelines please see CONTRIBUTING.md.
Fixes and optimizations are always welcome (please!), but in addition to that there are some major work areas still untouched:
- Help work through missing functionality/bugs in games
- Reduce the size of Xenia's huge log files
- Skilled with Linux? A strong contributor is needed to help with porting
See more projects good for contributors. It's a good idea to ask on Discord and check the issues page before beginning work on something.
