MechaCat02 19659d7f76 feat(kernel): KRNBUG-XAM-001 — XGetAVPack returns 8 (HDMI), not 0x16
Mirrors canary's cvars::avpack default (xam_info.cc:35) and Sylpheed's
accepted set {3,4,6,8} (xam_info.cc:250-251). With KRNBUG-XEX-001 having
flipped the priv-10 gate, XGetAVPack now reaches its caller in
sub_824AB578; returning 0x16 caused Sylpheed to abort the AV/crypto
block before XeCryptSha. Cascade walks one step (canary-only export
list 11 → 10); sub_824ABA98 is the next candidate.

Tests: 589 → 590. Goldens re-baselined (n50m: 50000005→50000004,
imports 407417→407416). Lockstep deterministic across 3 reruns at
-n 100M (instructions=100000010, import_calls=987686 +2.4×, swaps=2).
9-PC producer probe still 0×; parked handles 0x1004/0x100c/0x15e0
still signal_attempts=0.

Sylpheed regression goldens

These JSON files anchor xenia-rs check digest output for Project Sylpheed.

Files

File -n Mode Captures
sylpheed_n2m.json 2_000_000 full digest early boot (swaps=0, no rendering)
sylpheed_n50m.json 50_000_000 stable-digest first VdSwap pair (swaps=2 post-Phase-A)

Stable-digest mode

sylpheed_n50m.json is captured with --stable-digest, which omits timing-sensitive counters: packets (±28% lockstep noise from a GPU thread race), resolves, interrupts_delivered, interrupts_dropped, texture_decodes. The remaining fields are byte-identical across repeated lockstep runs at a fixed -n.

sylpheed_n2m.json predates the stable-digest flag and uses full-digest compare. It still works because at -n 2M the GPU pipeline has not produced any packets yet — packets=0 is trivially deterministic.

Circularity hazard

Per ORACBUG-001/002/003, these goldens were captured by running the same code they validate. They detect regression from a known-good snapshot, not correctness. When a planned fix intentionally moves the digest (e.g. a shader fix landing draws > 0 for the first time), re-baseline the golden as a separate commit and reference the audit ID in the message.

Re-baselining

cargo build --release -p xenia-app
target/release/xenia-rs check \
    "$SYLPHEED_ISO" \
    -n 50000000 \
    --stable-digest \
    --out crates/xenia-app/tests/golden/sylpheed_n50m.json

Running the goldens

cargo test --release -p xenia-app --test sylpheed_oracles -- --ignored --nocapture

The tests are #[ignore]-gated because each run takes a few seconds, which is unacceptable in the default cargo test cycle. The ISO path defaults to the contributor's local ~/RE Project Sylpheed/Project Sylpheed*.iso and can be overridden via SYLPHEED_ISO=/path/to/sylpheed.iso.

n4b canonical-invocation regression anchor (deferred)

The audit's recommended next sprint also called for a sylpheed_n4b.json golden capturing the canonical reference invocation xenia-rs check sylpheed.iso -n 4_000_000_000 --parallel --reservations-table. This is deferred because:

  1. The --parallel --reservations-table combination is empirically pathologically slow at -n 100M (>32 min per run per the audit memory). At -n 4B the run cost is many hours, not the single-session-friendly 515 min the original plan estimated.
  2. Each phase that intentionally moves rendering counters (C, D, E, F) would need a re-baseline of n4b — a significant time cost compounding over the sprint.

Once the renderer-unblock phases (C+D+E) land and draws > 0 is confirmed at -n 100M lockstep, an n4b artifact may be captured one-shot and stored under audit-runs/post-fix/ (not as a test golden) as a manual regression anchor for the canonical invocation.
