Non-negative values correspond to a specific CPU. (e.g. 0 for the Appcore and 1 for the Syscore on Old3DS) Special value -1 means all CPUs, and -2 means the default CPU for the process (Read from the [[NCCH/Extended Header|Exheader]], usually 0 for applications, 1 for system services). Games usually create threads using -2. − − With the Old3DS kernel, the s32 processorid must be <=2. − − With the New3DS kernel: processorid must be <= <total cores(MPCore "SCU Configuration Register" CPU number value + 1)>. When processorid==0x2 and the process is not an APPLICATION mem-region process, exheader kernel-flags bitmask 0x2000 must be set otherwise error 0xD9001BEA is returned. When processorid==0x3 and the process is not an APPLICATION mem-region process, error 0xD9001BEA is returned. These are the only restriction checks done by the kernel for processorid. − − The thread priority value must be in the following range: 0x0..0x3F. − − The stacktop must be aligned to 0x8-bytes, otherwise when not aligned to 0x8-bytes the ARM11 kernel clears the low 3-bits of the stacktop address. − − == enum MemoryState == − {| class="wikitable" border="1" − !

Addr0+size for this must be within the 0x14000000-0x1C000000 range when Addr0 is non-zero(Addr1 must be zero), Addr0 isn't actually used by svcControlMemory for mapping memory: Addr0 is not used by the kernel after doing address-range checks. The kernel determines what physical-address to use by allocating memory from FCRAM(about the same way as other memory), which is then used to determine the virtual-address. − − [[8.0.0-18]] added a new memory mapping(0x30000000-0x38000000) for LINEAR memory, this replaces the original mapping for newer titles. The kernel uses the new mapping when the process memory-region is BASE, or when the process kernel-release-version field is >=0x022c(2.44 / system-version [[8.0.0-18]]). − − The input mem-region value for svcControlMemory is only used(when non-zero) when the PID is value 1, for the [[FIRM]] ARM11 "loader" module. − − == enum MemoryPermission == − − {| class="wikitable" border="1" − !

Line 1,165: − + − Each process can only use SVCs which are enabled in the [[NCCH#CXI|exheader]] for this process. The ARM11 kernel SVC handler checks whether the SVC is enabled in the syscall access control mask stored on the SVC-mode stack, when the SVC isn't enabled a kernelpanic() is triggered. Each process has a separate SVC-mode stack, this stack and the syscall access mask stored here is initialized when the process is started. Applications normally only have access to SVCs <=0x3D, however not all SVCs <=0x3D are accessible to the application. The majority of the SVCs accessible to applications are unused by the application. − Each process has a separate handle-table, the size of this table is stored in the exheader. The handles in a handle-table can't be used in the context of other processes, since those handles don't exist in other handle-tables.+ − 0xFFFF8001 is a handle alias for the current KProcess, and 0xFFFF8000 is a handle alias for the current KThread.+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + − Calling svcBreak on retail will only terminate the process which called this SVC.+ − = Threads =+ − For svcCreateThread the input address used for Entrypoint_Param and StackTop are normally the same, however these can be arbitrary. For the main thread the Entrypoint_Param is value 0. − Using CloseHandle() with a KThread handle will terminate the specified thread, only if the reference count reaches 0.+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + − Lower priority values give the thread higher priority. For userland apps, priorities between 0x18 and 0x3F are allowed. The priority of the app's main thread seems to be 0x30.+ − The thread scheduler is cooperative, therefore if a thread takes up all the CPU time (for example if it enters an endless loop), all the other threads that run on the same CPU core won't get a chance to run. The main way of yielding another thread is using an address arbiter.+ − + − ControlMemory and MapMemoryBlock can be used to map memory pages, these two SVCs only support mapping execute-never R/W pages. The input permissions parameter for these SVCs must therefore be <=3, where value zero is used when un-mapping memory. Furthermore it appears that only regular heap pages can be mirrored (it won't work for TLS, stack, .data, .text, for example).+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + − Bitmask 0xF00 for ControlMemory parameter MemoryType is the memory-type, when this is zero the memory-type is loaded from the kernel flags stored in the exheader ARM11 kernel descriptors, for the process using the SVC.+ − ControlMemory parameter MemoryType with value 0x10003 is used for mapping the GSP [[Memory_layout|heap]]. The low 8-bits are the type: 1 is for un-mapping memory, 3 for mapping memory. Type4 is used to mirror the RW memory at Addr1, to Addr0. Type4 will return an error if Addr1 is located in read-only memory. Addr1 is not used for type1 and type3.+ − The ARM11 kernel does not allow processes to create shared memory blocks via svcCreateMemoryBlock, when the process memorytype(from the kernel flags stored in the exheader kernel descriptor) is the application memorytype, and when addr=0. It's unknown how the kernel handles addr=0 when the memorytype is not the application memorytype. When addr is non-zero, it must be located in memory which is already mapped. Furthermore, it appears that only regular heap pages (allocated using svcControlMemory op=COMMIT) are accepted as valid addrs.+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + − ControlProcessMemory maps memory in the specified process, this is the only SVC which allows mapping executable memory. Format of the permissions field for memory mapping SVCs: bit0=R, bit1=W, bit2=X. Type6 sets the Addr0 memory permissions to the input permissions, for already mapped memory. Type is the MemoryOperation enum, without the memory-type/memory-region. ControlProcessMemory only supports type4, type5, and type6. ControlProcessMemory does not support using the current KProcess handle alias.+ − MapProcessMemory maps RW memory starting at address 0x00100000 in the specified KProcess, at the specified StartAddr in the current process. MapProcessMemory then maps 0x08000000 in the specified process, to StartAddr+0x7f00000 in the current process. UnmapProcessMemory unmaps the memory which was mapped by MapProcessMemory.+ − Note that with the MAP MemoryOperation, the kernel will refuse to MAP memory for the specified addr1, when addr1 was already used with another MAP operation as addr1. The kernel also doesn't allow memory to be freed via the FREE MemoryOperation, when other virtual-memory is mapped to this same memory(when the MAP MemoryOperation was used with this memory with addr1).+ − + − + − Size of struct is 24 bytes. − struct DmaConfig {+ − sint8_t channel_sel; // @0 Selects which DMA channel to use: 0-7, -1 = don't care. − uint8_t unk1; // @1 Accepted values: 0,2,4,8. − uint8_t flags; // @2 bit0: DST_CFG, bit1: SRC_CFG, bit2: SHALL_BLOCK, bit3: ???, bit6: DST_ALT_CFG, bit7: SRC_ALT_CFG − uint8_t unk2; − uint8_t dst_cfg[10]; − // @5 Accepted values (u8): 4, 8, 12, 15. − // @15 Accepted values (u8): 4, 8, 12, 15. − uint8_t src_cfg[10]; // @14 − } − + − If CFG or ALT_CFG is not set, default configuration is loaded:+ − FF 0F 80 00 00 00 80 00 00 00 − If SHALL_BLOCK is set, the thread will sleep until the DMA engine is ready. If not set, the SVC will return 0xD04007F0 if the DMA channel is busy.+ − − The format of src_cfg/dst_cfg is unknown, but both have the same format.

Timers/Events may be waited on by a thread using svcWaitSynchronization. Once the timer runs out/the event gets signaled, threads waiting on the respective handles until the timer/event is reset. STICKY timers/events wake up threads until they are explicitly reset by some thread. ONESHOT timers/events will wake up exactly one thread and then are reset automatically. PULSE timers will be reset after waking up one thread too, but will also be started again immediately. It's unknown whether PULSE is a valid reset type for events.

<nowiki>(3)</nowiki> Completely removed from the kernel, but referenced in DMNT. Stubbed relocation code (e.g., in Process9 and in PXI sysmodule) and even whole libraries (e.g., in PXI sysmodule's .rodata section) seem to indicate that Nintendo used dynamic libraries early in system development.

User-visible references to internal objects are represented by 32-bit integers called handles. Handles are only valid in the process they have been created in; hence, they cannot be exchanged between processes directly (the [[IPC]] functions provide a mean to copy handles to other processes, though).
There are a number of special-purpose handles, which provide easy access to information on objects in the current process:

This is essentially an interface for writing values to the debug-unit (B/W)RP registers. registerId range 0..5 = breakpoints(BRP0-5), 0x100..0x101 = watchpoints(WRP0-1), anything outside of these ranges will result in an error. This is used for both adding and removing/disabling breakpoints/watchpoints, hence the raw control value parameter.
Here the kernel sets bit15 in the DSCR, to enable monitor-mode debugging.
Regardless of whether this is for a BRP, when bit21 is set in the control input parameter(BRP type = contextID), the kernel will load the target process [[KProcess|contextID]] and use that internally for the value field. The target process is specified via a [[KDebug]] handle passed as the "value" parameter.
Lastly, the kernel disables the specified (B/W)RP, then writes the value parameter / loaded contextID to the (B/W)VR, then writes the input control value to the (B/W)CR.

= Interrupt Handling =
svcBindInterrupt registers the given event or semaphore corresponding to the handle to the global [[ARM11_Interrupts#Interrupt_Table_.28New3DS.29|"interrupt table"]] for the given interrupt ID. Interrupts 0-14 and 16-31 can never be mapped regardless of the [[NCCH/Extended_Header#ARM11_Kernel_Capabilities|interrupt flags of the process's exheader]], and the latter are not checked when mapping interrupt 15. The "is level high active"/"is manual clear" parameter must be false when binding a semaphore handle (otherwise 0xD8E007EE "invalid combination" is returned).
If SRC_CFG/DST_CFG is set in the flags field, the configuration for src/dst is loaded from src_cfg/dst_cfg respectively. If the *_ALT_CFG flag is set same thing goes, except byte0 of each cfg is forced to 0xFF. ALT_CFG has priority over CFG.
If something was already registered for the given ID, svcBindInterrupt returns error 0xD8E007F0. See [[KBaseInterruptEvent]] for more information on what happens on receipt of an interrupt.
Applications hence can wait for specific interrupts to happen by calling WaitSynchronization(N) on the event or semaphore handles.
The set of existing ARM11 interrupts is listed on [[ARM11 Interrupts|this page]].

DebugActiveProcess is used to attach to a process for debugging.

Param2 is used only with the [[New_3DS]] kernel, pm-module uses value 0 with this.

This initializes the programID for launching [[FIRM]], then triggers launching [[FIRM]]. With New3DS kernel, it forces the firm title ID to be the New3DS NATIVE_FIRM, when the input firm title ID is 2. The high firm title ID is always set to 0x40138.

| Arguments: <code>u32 what, u64 val</code>
UNITINFO needs to be non-zero for <code>what</code> 1 and 2.
If <code>what</code> is 0 or any invalid value, nothing is done.
If it is 1, <code>val != 0</code> is written to the global variable enabling ERR:F-format register dumps on user-mode CPU/VFP exceptions (the VFP exception handler acts as if this variable was always true and works on retail environments). The user handler, stack pointer to use for exception handling, and pointer to use for the exception info structure are contiguously located in either the thread's TLS, or if the handler is NULL, in the main thread's TLS, at offset 0x40. If the specified stack pointer is 1, sp_usr - 0x5c is used instead; if the specified exception info buffer is 1, sp_usr - 0x5c is used instead, and if it is 0, <specified stack> - 0x5c is used (0x5c is the size of the exception info structure that is being pushed). Configured by NS on startup on dev-units (default being 0 on non-debugger/jtag units) using the 0x000F0000 configuration block in the [[Config_Savegame|config savegame]].
If 2, kernelpanic will be called when svcBreak is used by a non-attached process. Configured by NS on startup on dev-units (default being 0 on non-debugger/jtag units) using the 0x000F0000 configuration block in the [[Config_Savegame|config savegame]].
If 3, this changes the scheduling/preemption mode (when no threads are being preempted, otherwise returns error 0xC8A01414), see [[KResourceLimit]] for more details.

ConfigureNew3DSCPU. Only available for the [[New_3DS]] kernel. The actual code for processing this runs under the <handler for the KernelSetState-types called via funcptr>, which runs on all ARM11 cores. Only bit0-1 of the argument are used here. Bit 0 enables higher core clock, and bit 1 enables additional (L2) cache. This configures the hardware [[PDN_Registers|register]] for the flags listed [[NCCH/Extended_Header#Flag1|here]], among other code which uses the MPCore private memory region registers.

Implemented with [[11.3.0-36|11.3.0-X]]. Used with GSP module starting with that version. This always returns 0.
When input_flag is not 0x1, it will use value 0x0 internally. When a state field already matches input_flag, this will immediately return. Otherwise, after this SVC finishes running, it will write input_flag to this state field. GSP module uses 0x0 for APPLICATION-memregionid and 0x1 for non-APPLICATION-memregionid.
This writes "<nowiki>0x100 | <val></nowiki>" to [[CONFIG11_Registers#CFG11_GPUPROT|pdnregbase+0x140]], where val depends on input_flag and a kernel state field for [[Configuration_Memory|APPMEMTYPE]].
When input_flag is 0x1 val is fixed:
* Old3DS: 0x3
* New3DS: 0x460
Otherwise, val depends on the kernel APPMEMTYPE state field:
