# `xenia-analysis` schema reference

Authoritative documentation for the DuckDB tables and SQL views produced by
`xenia-rs dis --db sylpheed.db`. Track schema changes here alongside any
update to the `db_schema_golden` test fixture.

The base + disasm tables (`metadata`, `sections`, `imports`, `functions`,
`labels`, `instructions`, `xrefs`, opt-in `exec_trace` / `import_calls` /
`branch_trace`) are documented inline in `src/db.rs` doc comment. This file
collects layered analysis additions and forward-work notes.

---

## Layer M1 — `.pdata` boundary correction (landed)

### Schema additions
- `functions.pdata_validated BOOLEAN NOT NULL` — `true` when the row's
  `address` matches a `RUNTIME_FUNCTION.BeginAddress` from `.pdata`. Linker
  ground truth.
- `functions.pdata_length BIGINT NULL` — `function_length` (bytes) from the
  matching pdata entry; `NULL` when the row is prologue-only.
- New table `pdata_entries(begin_address BIGINT PRIMARY KEY, end_address
  BIGINT, function_length BIGINT, prolog_length BIGINT, flags BIGINT)` — every
  parsed `.pdata` `RUNTIME_FUNCTION` entry (raw, before any merge with
  prologue analysis).
- Index `idx_functions_pdata_validated` on `functions(pdata_validated)`.

### What this layer does
- Parses `.pdata` 8-byte `RUNTIME_FUNCTION` entries (PowerPC PE32 layout):
  word 0 `BeginAddress` (absolute VA), word 1 packed
  `{prolog_length:8, function_length:22, flags:2}`, both big-endian.
- Unions pdata `BeginAddress` values into the function-candidate set fed to
  the prologue walker, so functions our prologue heuristic missed still get
  rows.
- When pdata supplies a longer `function_length` than the prologue walk
  found, extends `end_address` to the pdata-implied end (catches mis-split
  where the walker stopped at an early `blr`).
- After the walker, performs a forward pass that trims `function.end` to the
  next start when they overlap (catches mis-merge where one row spanned two
  prologues — the audit-031 `sub_824D23B0` / `sub_824D29F0` case).

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not adjust prolog-derived `frame_size` / `saved_gprs` from `.pdata`'s
  `prolog_length` field — those remain prologue-only inferences.
- Does not classify functions further than the existing `is_leaf` /
  `is_saverestore` columns. Class membership is M3.
- Does not detect functions whose entries are missing from BOTH `.pdata`
  and the bl-target scan (extremely rare; would require executable-byte
  linear sweep).

### Reference docs
- Microsoft PE32+ exception data spec for PowerPC RUNTIME_FUNCTION.
- xenia-canary `src/xenia/cpu/xex_module.cc:1570-1587` — canary's reference
  parser (extracts `BeginAddress` only; we additionally decode word 1).

### Validation queries
```sql
-- All pdata entries found
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM pdata_entries;            -- ~23073 for Sylpheed
-- Functions cross-validated against pdata
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM functions WHERE pdata_validated;
-- Functions detected ONLY by prologue (orphans of pdata)
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM functions WHERE NOT pdata_validated;
-- Pdata orphans NOT yet in functions (should be 0 after this layer)
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM pdata_entries p
LEFT JOIN functions f ON f.address = p.begin_address
WHERE f.address IS NULL;
-- Audit-031 mis-merge resolved: 0x824D29F0 should have its own row
SELECT name FROM functions WHERE address = 2186674160;  -- 0x824D29F0
```

## Layer M2 — MSVC C++ name demangler (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `demangled_names(address BIGINT NULL, mangled VARCHAR NOT NULL,
  raw_demangled VARCHAR NOT NULL, namespace_path VARCHAR NULL,
  class_name VARCHAR NULL, method_name VARCHAR NULL,
  params_signature VARCHAR NULL)`.
- Indices on `address`, `class_name`, `method_name`.

### What this layer does
- Wraps `msvc_demangler::demangle` (a Rust port of LLVM's
  `MicrosoftDemangle.cpp`) and splits the formatted output into structured
  fields via a heuristic top-level parser (handles templates and nested parens
  correctly).
- Populates `demangled_names` from any label whose name starts with `?` plus
  any import name that happens to be mangled (defensive — typical kernel
  imports use C names).

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not parse the AST returned by `msvc_demangler::parse` — uses the formatted
  string and a heuristic split. Adequate for typical class member functions
  and RTTI strings; exotic template / lambda forms still get `raw_demangled`
  populated but may have NULL structured fields.
- Does not yet ingest RTTI strings discovered in `.rdata` — that's M3's job;
  M3 will append rows to this table at the addresses where it finds RTTI
  TypeDescriptors.

### Reference docs
- `msvc-demangler` crate (`https://docs.rs/msvc-demangler/0.11`).
- LLVM `MicrosoftDemangle.cpp` (the parser this crate ports).

## Layer M3 — Vtable + RTTI detection (landed)

### Schema additions
- `vtables(address PK, length, col_address NULL, class_name, rtti_present,
  base_classes_json NULL)` — every detected static vtable.
- `methods(vtable_address, slot, function_address, mangled_name NULL,
  demangled_name NULL, PRIMARY KEY (vtable_address, slot))` — one row per
  method slot.
- `classes(name PK, vtable_address, rtti_present, base_classes_json NULL)` —
  deduped by class name (first-detected vtable wins).
- Indices: `methods.function_address`, `classes.rtti_present`.

### What this layer does
- Walks `.rdata` and `.data` looking for runs of ≥3 consecutive 4-byte BE
  values where each value is a known function start (from M1's corrected
  `functions` table). Single-2-method vtables are intentionally rejected to
  control false-positive rate.
- Attempts the MSVC RTTI walk `vtable[-1] → CompleteObjectLocator → TypeDescriptor`
  for each candidate. When successful, the demangled `class ClassName`
  string fills `class_name` and a best-effort
  `RTTIClassHierarchyDescriptor` walk fills `base_classes_json` (JSON array
  of base class names).
- Falls back to `ANON_Class_<8-hex>` keyed by FNV-1a hash of the sorted
  method-PC tuple when RTTI is absent (typical for shipped game binaries).
  Identical vtables across the binary (multiple instances) collapse to the
  same anonymous name.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Vtables built at runtime in heap-allocated memory (e.g. by ctors copying
  static templates) are out of scope — only static `.rdata`/`.data` content.
- Multiple-inheritance "extra" vftables (one per base subobject) are detected
  as independent vtables with no link between them.
- Inheritance-tree walking beyond `RTTIClassHierarchyDescriptor`'s direct
  base list is not attempted.

### Reference docs
- openrce.org "Reversing Microsoft Visual C++" — RTTI layout articles
  (CompleteObjectLocator at vtable[-1]; TypeDescriptor at COL+0xC; mangled
  name at TD+0x8).

## Layer M4 — Class-aware probe targeting (landed)

CLI extension only — no schema changes. The probe-token grammar adds three
symbolic forms on top of the existing `0xADDR` literal:

- `Class::method` — joins `classes` × `methods` × `demangled_names` to find
  every PC whose vtable belongs to that class and whose demangled
  `method_name` matches.
- `Class::*` — joins `classes` × `methods` to find every method PC of that
  class.
- `function_name` — falls back to `functions.name` lookup for free functions
  / saverestore stubs / labels.

Numeric tokens never touch the DB (preserves zero-IO fast path; lockstep
digest unaffected). Symbolic tokens require the DuckDB at `--probe-db PATH`
or `XENIA_PROBE_DB`; default is `sylpheed.db` next to the .iso when present.

Resolution happens BEFORE guest exec begins, so it cannot affect the
lockstep digest.

See `crates/xenia-analysis/src/lookup.rs`.

## Layer M5 — Indirect-dispatch reachability (landed)

### Schema additions
- New value `'ind_call'` in the `xrefs.kind` set.
- New SQL view `v_indirect_reachability_from_entry` — strict superset of
  `v_reachability_from_entry`, taking `ind_call` edges in the BFS.

### What this layer does
- Walks each `FuncAnalysis.functions` entry with a per-basic-block register
  tracker. Recognises the canonical static-vtable pattern:
  `lis+addi → lwz off(rA) → mtctr → bcctrl`, where `rA` ends up holding a
  known vtable's start address from M3.
- Honours the PowerPC ABI: `bl`-style calls (op 18 / 16 with LK=1) clobber
  volatile r0..r12 + ctr but preserve non-volatile r13..r31, so a vtable
  pointer parked in r30/r31 before a call survives.
- Treats every M3 `loc_*` label as a basic-block boundary (kills register
  state) so jump-IN paths cannot induce false positives.

### What this layer does NOT do (and observed impact)
- Vtable pointer loaded from a `this`-pointer field
  (`lwz r_vt, off(rA)` where `rA = this`) — by far the dominant pattern in
  real C++ — is unresolvable without alias / points-to analysis.
- On Sylpheed: the layer detects 0 edges. The binary's 1,001 lis+addi
  references into vtables are mostly constructor-side **vptr writes**
  (`stw rVtable, vptr_offset(this)`), not direct dispatches. The renderer
  hunt's audit-009 cluster therefore needs a future M5.5 with `this`-flow
  tracking before this layer surfaces it.

### Reference docs
- IBM PowerPC ABI: register-save convention (volatile r0..r12 + ctr,
  non-volatile r13..r31).

## Layer M7 — String / constant-pool detection (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `strings(address PK, encoding, length, content)`.
- Index `idx_strings_encoding`.

### What this layer does
- Scans `.rdata` for runs of length ≥ 6 of printable ASCII bytes followed by
  a NUL terminator.
- Scans `.rdata` for UTF-16LE runs of length ≥ 6 code units (printable-ASCII
  basic plane only) followed by a u16 NUL terminator.
- Cross-reference is implicit: existing `xrefs.kind='ref'` rows whose
  `target` falls in `strings.address`'s exact match set name the referencing
  PCs. SQL: `SELECT s.content, x.source FROM xrefs x JOIN strings s
  ON s.address = x.target WHERE x.kind='ref'`.

### What this layer does NOT do
- No UTF-8 multibyte / non-ASCII basic plane in either encoding.
- No `.data` scan (read-only-section bias).
- No multi-byte CJK encodings — Japanese text in localised builds may be
  represented in shift_jis / utf-8 with non-printable bytes that this
  scanner skips.

### Sylpheed yield
- 6,311 ASCII strings (including full embedded HLSL shader source).
- 0 UTF-16LE strings (binary uses ASCII / native CJK encoding).
- 9,132 lis+addi sites cross-reference into the detected strings — names
  the source PCs that reference each string.

## Layer M6 — Extended store-class xrefs + `addr_mode` column (landed)

### Schema additions
- `xrefs.addr_mode VARCHAR NULL` — sub-classifies how the source instruction
  computes its target. NULL for control-flow edges (call / ind_call / j /
  br); one of the following tags for data edges:
  - `d_form` — standard signed-16 displacement (lwz/stw/lfs/stfs/etc.)
  - `lis_addi` — address materialised via `lis + addi` register tracking
  - `lis_ori` — address materialised via `lis + ori`
  - `multiword` — `lmw / stmw` (one xref per slot; up to 32-rS slots)
  - `x_form_indexed` — `stwx / stbx / sthx / stwux / stbux / sthux / stdx /
    stdux / lwzx / lbzx / lhzx / lhax / lwzux / lbzux / lhzux / lhaux / ldx /
    ldux` — emitted only when both rA and rB are tracked constants
  - `x_form_byterev` — `stwbrx / sthbrx / lwbrx / lhbrx`
  - `atomic` — `stwcx. / stdcx.` reservation-conditional stores
  - `dcbz` — cache-line clear (32-byte zero at rA+rB)
- Index `idx_xrefs_addr_mode`.

### What this layer does
- Tags every existing data xref with its addressing mode (`d_form` for the
  bulk; `lis_addi` / `lis_ori` for the lift-and-add cases that produce
  DataRef rows).
- Adds new dispatch for opcode 47 (`stmw`) and 46 (`lmw`), expanding to
  per-slot DataWrite / DataRead rows.
- Adds new dispatch for opcode 31 X-form: stores, atomic, byte-reverse,
  dcbz. X-form rows are emitted ONLY when both rA and rB resolve to known
  constants (otherwise the address is runtime-dependent and we skip).

### What this layer does NOT do
- VMX / VMX128 vector stores (opcode 31 with vector XO codes) are not
  emitted — they always have register-indexed addresses that the
  lis+addi tracker can't usually resolve, and detecting them adds noise
  without improving target resolution.
- The dominant runtime-of-stwx pattern (rA = base, rB = runtime index) is
  not resolved — by design; mem-watch covers the runtime side per VERIFY-B.

### Sylpheed yield
- 28,834 `lis_addi` refs, 18,485 `d_form` reads, 3,288 `d_form` writes —
  the existing baseline now properly tagged.
- **442 newly-detected `x_form_indexed` reads** — primarily lwzx/lhzx
  reads from in-table dispatch (each pair (rA,rB) resolved statically).
- **40 newly-detected `atomic` writes** — every `stwcx.` site with a
  resolvable address; useful for reservation-table audits.
- 9 `lis_ori` refs.
- 0 multiword / dcbz / byterev — these instructions exist in the binary
  but are not in lis+addi-tracked code paths.

## Layer M8 + M11 — Function-pointer arrays beyond vtables (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `function_pointer_arrays(address PK, length, kind)` where
  `kind` is `'vtable'` (M3 re-emit), `'dispatch_table'` (M8), or
  `'static_init'` (M11).
- New table `function_pointer_array_entries(array_address, slot,
  function_address, PRIMARY KEY (array_address, slot))` — one row per
  slot of every detected array (vtable + non-vtable).
- Indices on `function_pointer_arrays.kind` and
  `function_pointer_array_entries.function_address`.

### What this layer does
- Walks `.rdata` (only — `.data` produces too many false positives) for
  runs of ≥ 2 consecutive 4-byte BE values where each value is a known
  function entry from M1's `functions` table.
- Skips runs whose start matches an M3 vtable head — those are re-emitted
  in this table with `kind='vtable'` for unified queries but not
  re-classified.
- Heuristically classifies non-vtable runs:
  - `static_init` (M11): every entry's first instruction is `mfspr r12, LR`
    AND the next is `stwu r1, -N(r1)` with `N ≤ 0x80` (or a save-stub `bl`).
    Mirrors the typical C++ static-initialiser prologue.
  - `dispatch_table` (M8): everything else.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not parse symbol-table-bracketed regions like `__xc_a` / `__xc_z`
  / `__xi_a` / `__xi_z` directly — Sylpheed's symbol table is stripped.
- Does not chain multi-segment static-init drivers; future M11.5 could
  walk the entry-point's static-init driver call chain to surface
  ground-truth ctor PCs.
- 2-slot runs in `.rdata` may be false positives where two struct fields
  happen to alias function VAs; downstream queries should use a length
  filter (`WHERE length >= 3`) when high precision matters.

### Sylpheed yield
- 722 vtables (M3 re-emit) + 388 dispatch_tables = 1,110 arrays in
  `function_pointer_arrays`.
- 0 static_init detected — Sylpheed's ctors don't all match the
  conservative prologue heuristic. Lengths concentrate at 2 slots
  (typical of switch-case jump tables).

## Layer M9 — `has_eh` from `.pdata` exception flag (landed)

### Schema additions
- `functions.has_eh BOOLEAN NOT NULL` — true when `.pdata`'s exception-
  handler-present bit (bit 31 of word 1, the high bit) is set.
- Index `idx_functions_has_eh`.

### What this layer does
- Derived directly from M1's already-parsed `pdata.flags` bit field (no
  new parsing). The bit was always available in `pdata_entries.flags`;
  this layer surfaces it as a first-class column on `functions`.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not parse the actual `__CxxFrameHandler` / `__C_specific_handler`
  scope-table records that the exception bit gates. Walking those tables
  would let us name try/catch ranges and per-state cleanup actions, but
  is out of scope for a derive-only milestone.

### Sylpheed yield
- 2,975 of 23,073 pdata-validated functions have `has_eh=true` (12.9%) —
  plausible MSVC C++ EH coverage rate. Largest EH function: 26,328 bytes
  (`sub_823518F0`).

## Layer M10 — `.tls` section / TLS directory (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `tls_info(raw_data_start, raw_data_end, index_address,
  callback_array, zero_fill_size, characteristics)` — at most one row
  (the IMAGE_TLS_DIRECTORY32).
- New table `tls_callbacks(slot PK, address)` — one row per resolved TLS
  callback function.

### What this layer does
- Reads the first 24 bytes of the `.tls` section as an
  `IMAGE_TLS_DIRECTORY32` and walks the zero-terminated callback array.
- All addresses stored as absolute VAs.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not parse the raw TLS template content (the variable initialiser
  block); just records its start/end VAs.

### Sylpheed yield
- 0 rows — Sylpheed has no `.tls` section. Infrastructure ready for any
  binary that uses `__declspec(thread)` storage.

## Layer M12 — `--lr-trace` runtime canary-diff harness (landed)

### Runtime additions (no DB)
- New CLI flag `--lr-trace=PC[,PC,...]` on `exec` — comma-separated PCs
  to capture as JSONL records on every fire. Symbolic tokens (`Class::method`)
  resolve via M4's lookup against `--probe-db`. Settable via
  `XENIA_LR_TRACE`.
- New CLI flag `--lr-trace-out=PATH` — writes JSONL to a file (one
  record per line). Stdout when omitted. Settable via `XENIA_LR_TRACE_OUT`.
- New kernel state fields `lr_trace_pcs: HashSet<u32>` +
  `lr_trace_writer: Option<Mutex<File>>` and helper
  `KernelState::fire_lr_trace_if_match(hw_id)` invoked from the
  per-instruction probe slot.

### JSONL record fields
`pc, tid, hw, cycle, r3, r4, r5, r6, lr` — superset of what
xenia-canary's `--log_lr_on_pc` patch emits, with a cycle counter added
for cross-run reproducibility.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not capture VMX / FP register state (only GPRs r3..r6).
- Does not buffer / batch records — one `write_all` per fire. For
  high-frequency probes (e.g. tight loops at >1M fires/sec), redirect
  to a file and use a SSD.

### Determinism
Lockstep digest unaffected: probe firing happens after the per-instr
hooks for ctor/branch probes and only emits side-channel output. Verified
end-of-session: `check sylpheed.iso --stable-digest -n 2M` ×2 produced
byte-identical digests (`instructions=2000005`).

---

## Layer M5.5 — `this`-flow indirect-dispatch resolution (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `vptr_writes(writer_pc, vtable_address, vptr_offset, writer_function)` —
  every detected `stw rVtable, vptr_off(rThis)` site.
- New table `indirect_dispatch_sites(dispatch_pc PK, vptr_offset, slot, candidate_count)` —
  one row per resolved dispatch.
- New table `indirect_dispatch_candidates(dispatch_pc, vtable_address, method_address)` —
  one row per (dispatch × candidate vtable). Joined to existing
  `xrefs.kind='ind_call'` edges (one ind_call row per candidate).
- New indices on `vptr_writes.vtable_address`, `vptr_writes.vptr_offset`,
  `indirect_dispatch_candidates.method_address`,
  `indirect_dispatch_candidates.vtable_address`,
  `indirect_dispatch_sites.(vptr_offset, slot)`.

### What this layer does (class-membership inference)
1. **Phase 1 — vptr-write scan**: walk every function with the lis+addi
   tracker; whenever `stw rA, off(rB)` writes a known M3 vtable address,
   record `(vtable_addr, vptr_offset, writer_pc)`.
2. **Phase 2 — invert**: build `vtables_by_offset[vptr_off] = {V}` for the
   set of vtables ever written at that offset.
3. **Phase 3 — dispatch detection**: walk back ≤16 instructions from each
   `bcctrl`/`bctr LK=1`, find the canonical
   `lwz vt, off(this); lwz fn, slot*4(vt); mtctr fn` chain. Extract
   `(vptr_off, slot)`. Bail on register clobber, branch, or label
   boundary.
4. **Phase 4 — emit**: for each `(dispatch_pc, vptr_off, slot)`, emit one
   `xrefs.kind='ind_call'` row per candidate vtable that has a
   matching slot. Multi-candidate rows are an over-approximation.

### What this layer does NOT do
- No alias resolution at multi-candidate sites — emits one edge per
  matching vtable. Downstream queries should filter
  `indirect_dispatch_sites WHERE candidate_count=1` for high-confidence
  edges.
- No flow-sensitive analysis: register state is killed at every label
  (basic-block boundary) and at `bl`/`bcl` calls (volatile r0..r12 +
  ctr). We do NOT propagate values across calls in the chain-walker.
- No tracking of vptr writes via X-form indexed (`stwx`), VMX, or
  multiword stores. Only D-form `stw rA, off(rB)`.
- Does not synthesise vptr writes for inlined / elided constructors.
  If a class never has a writer at offset `vptr_off`, dispatches
  through that offset find no candidates.

### Sylpheed yield
- 567 vptr writes covering 214 distinct vtables (~30% of M3's 722).
- 29 distinct vptr offsets used; offset 0 dominates (501/567 = 88%,
  single-inheritance).
- **6,842 dispatch sites resolved**: 97 single-candidate
  (high-confidence) + 6,745 multi-candidate (over-approximation).
- 687,963 `ind_call` xref rows total.
- **2,746 newly-reachable functions** via the M5 BFS view
  (`v_indirect_reachability_from_entry`) compared to call/j/br alone.
- Audit-009 cluster (renderer plateau): functions newly visible
  include `0x823BC9E0`, `0x823BC290`, `0x823BC5A0`, `0x823BB158`,
  `0x823BB1E0`, `0x823BCAF0`, `0x823BC4C8` — actionable starting
  points for the cluster's reachability hunt.

### Reference docs
- IBM PowerPC ABI (volatile/non-volatile register partition).
- Itanium C++ ABI on vtable layout (offset-from-`this` model adapted
  by MSVC for Win32 PPC).

## Layer M9.5 — `__CxxFrameHandler` scope-table parsing (landed)

### Schema additions
- New table `eh_funcinfo(address PK, magic, max_state, p_unwind_map,
  n_try_blocks, p_try_block_map, n_ip_map_entries, p_ip_to_state_map,
  p_es_type_list, eh_flags)`.
- New table `eh_unwind_map(funcinfo_address, state_index, to_state, action_pc,
  PRIMARY KEY (funcinfo_address, state_index))`.
- New table `eh_try_blocks(funcinfo_address, try_index, try_low, try_high,
  catch_high, n_catches, p_handler_array,
  PRIMARY KEY (funcinfo_address, try_index))`.

### What this layer does
- Magic-scans `.rdata` for the documented MSVC FuncInfo signatures
  (0x19930520 / 0x19930521 / 0x19930522), reading 4-byte BE values
  on 4-byte alignment.
- Sanity-checks `max_state` ≤ 10,000, `n_try_blocks` ≤ 1,000, all
  internal pointers landing in valid sections.
- Walks `pUnwindMap` (8-byte UnwindMapEntry) and `pTryBlockMap`
  (20-byte TryBlockMapEntry) into one row each.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Does not associate FuncInfo records with their owning function via
  the `bl __CxxFrameHandler` registration site — joins to `functions`
  by best-effort PC-range queries. A future M9.6 can chase the
  registration to make the link explicit.
- Does not parse `pHandlerArray` (per-try-block catch type info).

### Sylpheed yield
- 2,588 FuncInfo records (all version 0x19930522).
- 10,019 unwind-map entries.
- 315 try-blocks across the binary.

## Layer M11.5 — Static-init driver chain detection (landed)

### Schema additions
- Reuses existing `function_pointer_arrays` table — drivers' arrays are
  emitted with `kind='static_init'`, replacing M11's prologue-heuristic
  output where the structurally-grounded pattern fires.

### What this layer does
- Walks every detected function looking for the canonical `_initterm`-
  style loop: `lwz cursor; mtctr; bcctrl; addi cursor, cursor, 4`
  bounded by a comparison against another constant register.
- Extracts `(array_start, array_end)` from the cursor's initial
  constant value and the end-comparand register.
- Reads the array, validates each entry against
  `func_analysis.functions`, and emits the array as `static_init`.

### What this layer does NOT do
- Doesn't handle drivers with multiple back-to-back trampoline loops.
- Doesn't follow `_initterm_e` return-status semantics — both
  `_initterm` and `_initterm_e` match if the loop body matches.

### Sylpheed yield
- 0 drivers detected. Sylpheed's static-init structure does not match
  the canonical CRT loop pattern; the binary likely calls ctors via
  another mechanism (inline at the entry point, or via a different
  driver shape). Infrastructure ready for any binary with the
  documented MSVC pattern.

## Layer VMX — Vector-store xrefs (M6 follow-up, landed)

Extends the M6 X-form opcode-31 dispatch in `xref.rs` with AltiVec/VMX
vector loads and stores. New entries (XO codes):

- `lvx` (103), `lvxl` (359), `lvebx` (7), `lvehx` (39), `lvewx` (71)
  — `addr_mode='x_form_indexed'`, `kind='read'`.
- `stvx` (231), `stvxl` (487), `stvebx` (135), `stvehx` (167),
  `stvewx` (199) — `addr_mode='x_form_indexed'`, `kind='write'`.

Same constraint as M6: rows emitted only when both `rA` and `rB`
resolve to known constants (rare but useful).

### Sylpheed yield
- 110 `stvx` writes newly resolved.

## Layer SJIS+UTF-8 — Localised-string detection (M7 follow-up, landed)

Extends `xenia_analysis::strings::analyze` with two additional scanners.

### Shift_JIS detection
Per JIS X 0208: lead byte ∈ [0x81, 0x9F] ∪ [0xE0, 0xEF];
trail byte ∈ [0x40, 0x7E] ∪ [0x80, 0xFC]. Single-byte ASCII and JIS
half-width katakana (0xA1..=0xDF) are passed through. At least one
multi-byte pair must be present (so we don't double-count pure ASCII).
SJIS bytes are rendered as `\\xHH` escapes in the `content` column for
diagnostic readability — full SJIS→UTF-8 decoding is a future
enhancement.

### UTF-8 detection
Validates 2-byte (`110xxxxx 10xxxxxx`) and 3-byte
(`1110xxxx 10xxxxxx 10xxxxxx`) sequences plus printable ASCII. Skips
4-byte (supplementary plane) which is rare in game text.

### Sylpheed yield
- 790 Shift_JIS strings (Japanese debug + UI text, including
  `[WARNING] ノードに割り当てるエフェクトIDの指定がない ノードデータが見つからない` style mission strings).
- 39 UTF-8 strings.
- 6,311 ASCII strings (unchanged from M7).

## Forward work (not yet landed)

- **M9.6** — link `eh_funcinfo` records back to their owning functions
  via `bl __CxxFrameHandler` registration sites + per-try-block
  `pHandlerArray` parsing.
- **M11.6** — relax M11.5 to detect non-canonical static-init driver
  shapes (`_initterm_e` with status return, custom drivers).
- Full SJIS → UTF-8 decoding in the `strings.content` column.
- VMX128 (opcode 4) vector-store xrefs — separate encoding space, low
  ROI; document if Sylpheed's renderer cluster uses it.
