SceSblSmCommForKernel

sceSblSmCommCallFunc_ForKernel

Version NID
0.931.010-1.03 0x4960DF9E
1.692.000-3.740.011 not present

This function is just a 4-argument wrapper for #sceSblSmCommCallFuncForKernel. 

typedef struct sceSblSmCommCallFunc_Param {
    void *pData;
    SceSize dataSize;
} sceSblSmCommCallFunc_Param;

int sceSblSmCommCallFunc_ForKernel(SceSmSchedRequestId req_id, SceUInt32 func_id, SceUInt32 *pResponse, sceSblSmCommCallFunc_Param *pParam);

sceSblSmCommStopCommForKernel

Version NID
0.931.010-1.03 0xC35FB95A
1.692.000-3.740.011 not present 
int sceSblSmCommStopCommForKernel(SceSmSchedRequestId req_id);

sceSblSmCommStartSmForKernel

Version NID
0.931.010-1.03 0x7863A0CC
1.692.000-1.810.021 not present
2.000.081-3.740.011 0x7863A0CC

Priority is binary: 1 = low, 0 = high. Running a high priority SM while a low priority one is currently running will suspend the low one.

The following conditions must be met in order for this function to be called successfully: - In kernel thread. - In kernel context.

Calling a function without satisfying the conditions freezes the system. 

int sceSblSmCommStartSmForKernel(SceBool priority, const char *sm_self_path, SceSblSmCommContext130 *ctx_130, SceSmSchedRequestId *req_id);

sceSblSmCommStartSm_ForKernel

Version NID

int sceSblSmCommStartSm_ForKernel(SceBool priority, const char *path, SceBool some_bool, int unk_a4, int unk_a5, int unk_a6, SceSblSmCommContext130 *pCtx, SceSmSchedRequestId *pReqId);

sceSblSmCommStopSmForKernel

Version NID
0.931.010-3.740.011 0x0631F8ED

This function calls sceSblSmCommCallFuncForKernel with -1 (0xFFFFFFFF) as func_id and then calls sceSblSmSchedProxyWaitForKernel. 

int sceSblSmCommStopSmForKernel(SceSmSchedRequestId req_id, status_handler *pStatusHandler);

Changelog

Between 1.000.041 and 1.692.000 (to precise): many exported functions were removed. These functions were exported both to usermode and to kernel.

Between 1.692.000 and 1.800.071: the usermode library SceSblSsSmComm was removed. It should not have been exported to usermode for two security reasons: firstly SM communication should not be handled by usermode programs, secondly these exported functions were pointing to their kernel equivalent without any check on input addresses.

Between 1.800.071 and 2.500.071 (to precise): sceSblSmCommStartSm_ForKernel was replaced by two functions: sceSblSmCommStartSmForKernel (same name as in 0.931.010) that has the same features and sceSblSmCommStartSmFromDataForKernel that loads a SM from a buffer instead of a file.

Obfuscated names

Since some System Software version between 1.000.041 and 1.692.000 (to precise), the module is compiled with a MACRO that converts some object names to obfuscated names. The algorithm is obfuscated_name = "SceSblSmComm" + hash(real_name) where hash is an unknown function.
