The sysroot buffer is a 0x100 or 0x200 sized buffer passed to the secure kernel bootloader in the scratch space and contains all sorts of flags and system parameters. This buffer is copied to the secure kernel, the non-secure kernel loader, and the non-secure kernel and is used by many functions to check for features that are enabled for the system.

Bitfield flags

Bit Description
0x2C + bit 29 Set to skip version checks in system updates
0x2D + bit 30 Checked by SceAppMgr. Dictates if you can pass arguments to sceAppMgrLaunchAppByPathForDriver

QA flags

QA flags are some bit flags between 0x20 and 0x33.

boot type flags

  • at 0x30: 0xFF - not update mode
  • at 0x33: 0xFF - not safe mode
  • at 0x35: FF on FAT - no internal storage, FE on PSTV or SLIM - internal storage

Hardware Info

Data is returned by SceSyscon.

  • 00 60 41 00: PDEL-1XXX
  • 00 60 40 00: PCH-10XX / PTEL-1XXXX
  • 02 60 40 00: PCH-11XX
  • 38 22 82 00: PCH-2XXX model revision 0x18
  • 30 30 70 00: VTE-XXXX

Boot type indicator 2

Experimental point of view

- No AC connected + No POWER Button pressed: 0x0
ex: rebooting by software PSVita when AC is not connected

- No AC connected + POWER Button pressed: 0x4
ex: booting PSVita by pressing POWER button when AC is not connected

- AC connected + No POWER Button pressed: 0x8
ex: rebooting by software PSVita when AC is connected
ex: autobooting PSTV/IDU PSVita by pluging AC

- AC connected + POWER Button pressed: 0xC
ex: powering off by software PSTV then booting it by pressing POWER button
ex: booting PSVita by pressing POWER button when AC is connected

Bit flags point of view

Bit Description
0 AC: connected: 1 - disconnected: 0 (note that PSTV always has AC connected)
1 POWER button: pressed: 1 - not pressed: 0

Wakeup factor

  • 04 FF 00 00
  • 04 00 00 00
  • 00 FF 00 00
  • 80 after suspend

DIP Switches

Offset Size Description
0x40 0x4 DevKit CP timestamp 1
0x44 0x2 DevKit CP Version
0x46 0x2 DevKit CP Build ID
0x48 0x4 DevKit CP timestamp 2
0x4C 0x4 ASLR Seed
0x50 0x4 DevKit Boot Parameters (ex: 0x80000000 or 0x80000001 or 0x80000003 or 0x81000000 or 0x81000001 OR 0x0 or 0x2 in release mode)
0x54 0x4 unk
0x58 0x4 DevKit unk flags (ex: 0x0 retail, 0x1453E7 dev mode, 0x080002 release mode)
0x5C 0x4 DevKit flags 3 (ex: 0x0 retail, 0x20000010 dev mode, 0x20000000 release mode)

Bitflags resolving

To convert the bit number to the offset and bit: offset = 0x40 + (bit_num / 32) * 4, bit = 1 << (bit_num % 32).

CP Information

Bits 0-31 is a 32-bit integer of the current time on the DevKit CP clock. This is duplicated in bits 64-95.

Bits 32-47 is a 16-bit integer of the CP version and bits 48-63 is a 16-bit integer of the CP build ID. All integers are little-endian.
On non-devkits, these fields are zero. Bits 0-63 are also usable as general purpose switches exposed with sceKernelSetDipsw, sceKernelClearDipsw, and sceKernelCheckDipsw but they do not change anything in hardware (only cached values are overwritten).

User Flags

Bits 96-127 does not seem to be used in the kernel.

DevKit Boot Parameters

Bits 128-159 are used to store DevKit flags. It does not appear to be used in other models.

Bit Description
152 PS TV Emulation: On: 1 - Off: 0
159 Release Check Mode: Development Mode: 1 - Release Mode: 0
? Memory Size: Console Size: 1 - Development Tool Size: 0

Shell Flags

Bits 160-191 are used for SceShell flags.

Bit Description

Debug Flags

Bits 192-223 are for various debugging options.

Bit Description
197 Enable kernel console logging
211 Enable user UART console logging

System Flags

Bits 224-255 are used for various system options.

Bit Description
229 HDCP related?

Hardware flags

Bit Description
1 IC Connexant: 1 - yes, 2 - no
5 unk
6 unk
7 unk
14 unk
  • all zeroes on most cases
  • 47 02 on a Slim
