The crosshair turns red, and lock-on works, when stencil bit 3 is set at
the centre of the frame, which the game tests by reading the pixel from
VRAM with the CPU (#17936). Hook that and read back the stencil of that
row into the alpha bytes in RAM. The alpha the hardware backends keep
doesn't follow stencil everywhere, so reading color isn't enough.
Adds PerformReadbackStencilToMemory for this (8888 only for now).

Some old states have replacement hook ops in memory. Since hooks moved out of
memory, those changed the functions' hashes on load, so they weren't hooked
again, and the CPU hit the op as an illegal instruction. Restore the
instructions this session hooked at the same addresses, as the old hooking did.

The game converts each video frame into RAM and copies it into the
framebuffer with its own memcpy, which we didn't recognize. The hardware
backends never saw the copy and kept showing the last frame the GE drew.

Buzz! Master Quiz converts its question videos (sceMpegBaseCscAvcRange)
straight into the middle of the frame it has drawn, at 84,69. The
framebuffer upload only matched writes starting at a framebuffer's
address, so the hardware backends never showed the video. Pass the
written width along and draw just that rectangle into the framebuffer.

With "Memory Stick inserted" off, the savedata modes that show no dialog now
fail with their own "no memory stick" error, as recorded on a PSP with the
stick pulled out (pspautotests utility/savedata/nomemstick). ms0: opens, stats
and directory opens fail with SCE_KERNEL_ERROR_NODEV.
SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 2's boot-time AUTOLOAD loaded its save anyway, or said
there was no data rather than no memory stick.
test.py gets a test_flags table for tests that need their own headless flags;
this one runs with --no-memstick.
Fixes#21846

An inverse boolean option was inverted twice, so --windowed forced fullscreen
on. --no-memstick runs with the memory stick removed, for testing that from
headless (which otherwise always inserts one).

We copied the module into memory at the start of the call, then made the caller
wait for the read. On hardware the module's bytes only arrive at the end, and
until then other threads can use that memory (pspautotests modules/loadrace).
SOCOM: Fireteam Bravo 2 EU (UCES00543) relies on this. Its loader EBOOT loads
SOCOMPSP.PRX on one thread while another builds a GU display list in a 0x40-byte
buffer at the end of its .bss. That list overruns into the free memory right after
it, which is where the game module goes. On hardware the module load later
overwrites the overrun; for us, the overrun overwrote the module's first
instructions, and the game crashed as soon as it started.
The load now runs from a CoreTiming event at the end of the wait. Pending loads
are saved in savestates.

The app now always uses the Metal view controller with Vulkan (MoltenVK),
for both the App Store and sideload builds. The GL view controller is gone,
and Common/GPU/OpenGL (except GLFeatures, used by the shader generators) and
GPU/GLES are no longer compiled for it. PPSSPP_API_ANY_GL is now off for
all of iOS except the libretro core, which still uses GLES.

The first game builds its portrait like Golf 2 and Tennis, but its copy
function keeps y and h in different registers and loads the framebuffer pointer
at a different offset. Move the readbacks into a helper and add a hook for this
layout.

Tennis builds its portraits like Everybody's Golf 2: it memcpys a 64x64 rect of
the framebuffer and sets each texel's alpha bit from depth read straight from
VRAM, so the circles in the corners came out empty. Its copy function is
scheduled differently and hashes differently, so add it as a second entry for
the same hook, which is renamed to fit both.
Fixes#17826.

StreamBufferToBase64 sent width * height bytes, so any buffer with more than one

The game builds each 64x64 portrait by memcpying a rect of the framebuffer one
partial row at a time, then setting each texel's alpha bit from the depth
buffer, which it reads directly from VRAM. Neither got read back: the row
copies don't line up with a framebuffer, and depth is never downloaded.
Hook the copy function to read back both, whole rows at a time. That needed two
fixes to requested depth copies: they were dropped when the depth buffer lies
above all color buffers, and only an exact full-buffer size matched.
The portrait texture now matches the software renderer, though it still
doesn't show up on screen with Vulkan.

With block entries out of memory, the only fake opcode left is the one the CPU cores fetch in
place of a hooked instruction. Call it MIPS_CALL_REPLACEMENT_OP, and its handlers
Int_CallReplacement and Dis_CallReplacement, and remove the sub-op defines and the unused
MIPS_IS_REPLACEMENT.

Memory no longer holds the hooks, so the disassembly fetches the op the CPU runs, which is the
CallRepl pseudo-op at a hooked address. That lookup can come from the Win32 debugger's UI thread,
so the CPU thread now changes the hook map under a lock (and reads it without, being the only
writer).

The JITs used to find a block by overwriting its first instruction with an "emuhack" holding
the offset into the code space, and replacement functions installed their own emuhack the same
way. Anything that read code (savestates, the debugger, memory dumps, cheats, the function
hasher, games reading their own code) had to translate them back.
Blocks now live in a block shadow: one u32 per guest instruction, indexed by the PC masked with
BLOCK_SHADOW_MASK (1GB on 64-bit, folding the kernel and uncached mirrors; 256MB on 32-bit, iOS
and Switch, where address space is short), with the low bits cleared so a misaligned PC can't
read across two entries. Only the ranges under memory views are committed, so a bad PC still
faults in the dispatcher, and the shadow is reserved before the memory map so it can't land in
a gap of the 4GB window. Entries hold full 32-bit offsets, lifting the 16MB limit. The
dispatchers on every backend, and the IR interpreter's loop, look blocks up there.
A hooked instruction without a compiled block gets the JIT's hook value in its entry: the offset
of the dispatcher's compile path (1 for the interpreters, the IR arena keeping that offset
empty), so dispatching there compiles a block, and the frontends substitute the hook. Compiling
replaces the entry with the block's, and destroying the block puts the hook value back. The hook
value is rewritten when the JIT changes or regenerates its dispatcher.
Hooks live in a map keyed by the masked address, and are dropped when the game overwrites the
hooked instruction, or when an icache invalidation finds the function's hash (immediates masked,
as when matching it) changed. Those checks run when queued invalidations are processed, since
cheats and the debugger queue them before writing. Installing and removing hooks invalidates
deferred, as it happens in HLE calls that can run inside a block. The cache instruction goes
through MIPSState, so it drops changed hooks too.
With clean memory, the save/clear/restore around savestates, memory reads and dumps goes away,
as do the source-range invalidations in the memcpy replacements, sceDmac and the cheats.

Helper thread stubs, fake syscall stubs and the module start trampoline go into memory that may
have held code (freed kernel memory, a reused thread stack), and the debugger memory views can
edit code. Invalidate what they write, which so far only happened by accident when the write hit
the first instruction of a JIT block.

78c75e1a0b dropped IRNativeJit::InvalidateCacheAt as a duplicate, and with it the only call to
the backend's InvalidateBlock. Since then a block linked to an invalidated one kept jumping into
its old code, past the dispatcher. Call it from IRJit::InvalidateCacheAt through a virtual, like
the other native block hooks.

Waking a thread from the mixer reschedules, which runs any due CoreTiming
events. When an audio tick runs late, the next tick would already be due, and
it would mix over mixBuffer before this one had been output. The next block

6.60 and 6.61 crashed in vsh_module's alarm-task scan on a count nothing
initialized, and a data patch zeroed it. With the shell's modules started
in order, both reach the XMB, show icons and launch homebrew without it.

The kernel starts modules one by one, each module_start returning before
the next starts. We started them all as threads side by side, and
vsh_module's start ran before paf's. Its 12MB request for game_plugin's
surface pools then went to the 8.3MB heap we pre-filled scePaf's pool
slot with, failed, and game_plugin threw away every decoded ICON0 and
PIC1 (white tiles on 3.80-5.05, grey placeholders from 5.50).
heaparea1, vshbridge, paf, common_gui and common_util now start in order,
and vsh_module waits for the last. The kd/ drivers still start side by
side, since syscon's start blocks on its hardware interrupt. paf fills
its own pool slot now, so the pre-fill is gone. Icons show on every
version from 1.50 to 6.61, and homebrew launches on the same ones as
before.

The VSH's sceVshBridge_Driver calls both when launching a game, and some
firmware versions give up on the launch unless they succeed (5.xx for the
first, 2.00 for the second). Neither has anything to do here: our HLE
LoadExec reads the PBP itself, and there's no AVC decoder to power.
Added under the NIDs whose names are known: sceKernelSetParamSfo's old,
5.xx and 6.60 NIDs (from DC-M33's NID resolver, Adrenaline's NID table and
uOFW), and sceMePowerControlAvcPower's old and 6.60 NIDs (jpcsp's
psplibdoc, uOFW). Appended at the end of SysMemForKernel, and
sceMePower_driver registered last.

The VSH launches games through the VSH variants of LoadExecForKernel,
whose NIDs most firmware versions changed. Where HLE doesn't know the NID,
the firmware's own loadexec.prx ran instead, and the launch got nowhere,
so homebrew launched from the XMB only on firmware 3.73 and older, and
6.60/6.61.
Each variant is the same small wrapper, loadExecVSH(apiType, file, opt,
0x10000), so when loadexec.prx exports one we don't know, look at the API
type it loads into a0, and for Disc (0x120) and MS2 (0x141), overwrite it
with a call to our HLE implementation.

Instead of 6.61's offsets, look for the checks by their instructions,
each of which has to match exactly once. Checked against vshmain.prx from
every firmware version, 1.50 to 6.61:
- The DISC_ID check is there from 2.00 on.
- The DATA.PSP header check from 5.00 on, in two forms: 5.xx compares
the header bytes against ~PSP and ~SCE itself, and 6.30 on test a type
a helper worked out. 6.00 to 6.20 have both. For the byte check, the
"first byte isn't ~" branch is pointed at where a good header goes.
- 1.50 and 1.52 have neither, and run unsigned code anyway.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Picking homebrew in the XMB gave "The game cannot be started. The data
is corrupted." without ever calling LoadExec: vshmain.prx rejects a
PARAM.SFO without a valid DISC_ID, and a DATA.PSP that's a plain ELF
rather than ~PSP. NOP the three branches that do that, the same patches
ProCFW's vshctrl makes and JPCSP applies. They're for 6.61's build, and
are only applied if all three instructions are what we expect.
With it, Kosmodrones launches from the XMB, through the PSP boot logo.

The Oboe input callback used to call Microphone::addAudioData directly,
writing PSP memory from the audio thread. Now it only pushes samples
into a SampleRing, and pollRecording drains it on the CPU thread.
Starting and stopping still go through Java, which asks for permission.
Every host with a microphone polls now, so sceUsbMic drops what only the
push path needed: QueueBuf's recursive mutex, restarting the mic on a
device change, and the startMic parameter nobody read. Also removes the
unused System_AudioRecordingState and Microphone::isNeedInput.
The Java microphone_command branch didn't return true, so every command
logged "processCommand failed".
