Adds infrastructure to synthesise the silph::WorkerCtx that AUDIT-058/059
identified as never reached by ours' static-init chain (real chain entry
sits in audit-059 round 9's wrong-vtable wedge at sub_82172BA0+0x1E8).
Ctx layout follows round 5's live hexdump from canary:
+0x00 vtable = 0x8200A1E8
+0x04 self
+0x08 intrusive list head -> self
+0x0C init flag = 1
+0x10 packed byte field
+0x18 2x float ~1.0 (UI rates)
+0x24 flag = 1
+0x28..+0x30 3x foreign-arena pointers (left NULL — see below)
+0x54..+0x84 4x X_KEVENT auto-reset, state=0
+0x94..+0xC4 4x X_KEVENT manual-reset, state=1 (pre-signaled)
+0x210..+0x250 4-entry intrusive work-ring, empty
Worker spawn mirrors AUDIT-048's audio-worker pattern in
xaudio_register_render_driver: per-worker allocate_thread_image +
state.scheduler.spawn with r3 = ctx_ptr. Trigger fires at the first
dat/* VFS open (ours' earliest is dat/files.tbl), which is when canary
runs the equivalent chain.
ROUND 18 OUTCOME — opt-in only:
With workers spawned Ready (XENIA_SILPH_SYNTH=1), boot CRASHES at
cycle ~5.5M with PC=0 on hw=1, just after worker_3 (entry 0x825065B8)
spawns. Per task constraints this is STOP-and-report: the ctx fields
+0x28/+0x2C/+0x30 (foreign heap pointers — canary's 0x30057018,
0xBCE25640, 0xBE568F00, distinct arenas per audit-059 round 7) are
left NULL, and the worker bodies plausibly dereference one of them.
Synthesising those is a fresh investigation (round 19+).
With workers spawned Suspended (XENIA_SILPH_SYNTH=suspend), boot
completes normally (11 spawns, VdSwap=1, KeSetEvent=2,
KeReleaseSemaphore=1 — matches default baseline). The ctx remains
materialised in guest memory at the logged VA for downstream probing.
Default (env var unset): no synth, no regression.

Replace the three XAudio kernel-export stubs (Register/Unregister/SubmitFrame)
with canary-faithful implementations and add a periodic buffer-complete
callback ticker reusing the existing SavedCallbackCtx injection machinery.
Canary parity:
- xboxkrnl_audio.cc:56-93 — read callback_ptr[0..1], wrap callback_arg in a
4-byte big-endian guest heap buffer (`wrapped_callback_arg`), write
`0x4155_xxxx` to *driver_ptr.
- audio_system.cc:139-141 — guest callback receives r3 = wrapped pointer,
not raw callback_arg.
- audio_driver.h:21-24 — frame rate 256 samples / 48 kHz ≈ 5.33 ms.
Implementation:
- New `crates/xenia-kernel/src/xaudio.rs` — `XAudioClient`, `XAudioState`
(8-slot table, pending FIFO, dual-mode ticker), `XAUDIO_INSTR_PERIOD =
48_000` (lockstep) and `XAUDIO_PERIOD = 5.333 ms` (--parallel), same
pattern as KRNBUG-D08 v-sync.
- `try_inject_audio_callback` in xenia-app mirrors `try_inject_graphics_interrupt`,
shares `interrupts.saved` slot for mutex with graphics callbacks.
Gating: ticker + injector run only when `--xaudio-tick` /
`XENIA_XAUDIO_TICK=1`. Default off because Sylpheed's audio callback
enters an infinite `KeWaitForSingleObject` loop on first invocation
(canary's host worker thread provides the buffer-completion fence we
don't model), which hijacks a guest HW thread and regresses
`swaps=2 → 1`. Default-off preserves the lockstep `sylpheed_n*m.json`
goldens exactly.
Producer hunt outcome (FALSIFIED for parked handles 0x1004/0x100c/0x15e4):
at `-n 500M --xaudio-tick` all 3 handles still show
`signal_attempts=0 (primary=0, ghost=0)`. Audio callback is not the
missing producer. Next candidate per audit-findings.md is Timer DPC
delivery (KeSetTimer / KeInsertQueueDpc).
Tests: 562 → 576 green (10 in `xaudio.rs`, 4 in `exports.rs`).
Lockstep `--stable-digest -n 100M` default-off: instructions=100000002,
swaps=2 (matches pre-change baseline byte-for-byte).

Major HLE buildout in exports.rs: KeInitializeSemaphore now seeds
count/limit, XexGet{Module,Procedure}Address use distinct
HMODULE_XBOXKRNL/HMODULE_XAM pseudo-handles with a reverse
(ModuleId,ordinal)→thunk_addr map, plus sweeping additions across
sync primitives, file I/O, semaphores, events, threads, and
allocator paths needed to advance Sylpheed past VdSwap=2.
New modules:
- thread.rs — ThreadRef + per-thread suspension/wake plumbing
- interrupts.rs — IRQ delivery, pending-IRQ slots, IPI helpers
- path.rs — guest path normalization (D:\\, game:\\, etc.)
- audit.rs — --trace-handles harness backing the handle audit
- ui_bridge.rs — kernel-side endpoint of the xenia-ui bridge
(input snapshots, framebuffer publish handles)
state.rs grows to own the HW-slot scheduler state, the new audit /
UI bridge handles, and the per-handle reverse maps. xam.rs and
objects.rs follow suit for the HLE additions.

Rust reimplementation of the xenia Xbox 360 emulator targeting reverse-
engineering and preservation, initially scoped to Project Sylpheed.
Includes:
- XEX2 loader (LZX decompression, AES decryption, PE parsing)
- XISO / XGD2 disc image VFS
- PPC interpreter with 200+ opcodes and VMX128 decoding
- Static analyzer: functions, cross-references, labels, asm + SQLite output
- HLE kernel covering the xboxkrnl/xam subset used by Sylpheed init
- Debugger with in-memory and SQLite-backed execution tracing
- `xenia-rs` CLI with extract/dis/exec commands that produce cumulative,
superset SQLite databases and opt-in instruction/import/branch traces
