Second Loader

Boot type indicator 1 for SLSK
This flag is set to cmep keyring 0x50C. It is defined at same time as KBL Param and embeds some common information but with different flags.

emmc device (sdif0) is initialized. It sets keys for emmc crypto to be 0x20E/0x20F pair and protects them

The command sequence sent to emmc is GO_IDLE_STATE, SEND_OP_COND, SEND_CID, SET_RELATIVE_ADDR, SEND_CSD, SELECT_CARD, SEND_EXT_CSD, SET_BLOCKLEN, SWITCH, SWITCH.

During SEND_OP_COND the function pointer from  is called, it performs syscon init. It enables syscon device using gpio and sends syscon commands 1 (get syscon ver), 5 (get vita model info), 2 (get syscon date string), optionally 0x80.

Model/devkit checks
model_info = get_cached_model_info_8038F2; model_info_1 = model_info; set_global_model_info_808C24(model_info); model_upper = model_info_1 & 0xFF0000; if ( model_upper == 0x600000 ) goto its_devkit; if ( model_upper > 0x600000 ) goto LABEL_8; if ( model_upper == 0x310000 ) goto its_devkit; v5 = 0x100000; if ( model_upper > 0x310000 ) {   if ( model_upper == 0x410000 ) goto its_devkit; LABEL_8: if ( model_upper == 0x800000 || model_upper <= 0x800000 && model_upper == 0x700000 || model_upper == 0x820000 ) goto its_devkit; v5 = 0x900000; goto LABEL_13; } do  { LABEL_13: if ( model_upper == v5 ) { its_devkit: sub_802044; enable_leds_808B7A; }   set_status(65LL); v6 = get_syscon_ver_8038EC; v5 = 0x802FF; syscon_ver = v6; } while ( v6 <= 0x802FF ); keyring_writeX_80250C(0x508LL, (__int64)&syscon_ver, 4LL); model_info_2 = get_cached_model_info_8038F2; keyring_writeX_80250C(0x51BLL, (__int64)&model_info_2, 4LL); if ( (model_info_2 & 0xFF0000u) > 0x7FFFFF ) v7 = 0x1030; else v7 = 0x10; dword_E3100180 = v7; set_status(67LL);

Model info is retrieved from a global set by syscon command 5. Some checks are performed to determine if the vita is a devkit, if it is then a flag to enable debug LEDs is set. Syscon hw version from command 1 is written to keyslot 0x508 and vita model info is written to keyslot 0x51B.

Retrieve boot type from syscon
boot_type = 0; v8 = syscon_cmd_0x10_get_boot_type_80452A((__int64)&boot_type); v50 = v8; if ( (_DWORD)v8 ) {   v9 = 67LL; LABEL_21: v10 = 0LL; LABEL_22: report_error_808CAA(2LL, v9, v8, v10); LABEL_23: ret = v50; goto LABEL_97; } set_status(68LL);

Boot type is retrieved from syscon cmd 0x10, 0xFF14 on cold boot or 0xFF80 on resume boot.

Resume checks
is_resume = (boot_type >> 7) & 1; v17 = something_with_dram_808662(1LL, is_resume); v50 = v17; if ( (_DWORD)v17 ) {   v18 = (unsigned __int8)sub_80877E; v19 = sub_808784; v9 = 69LL; v8 = v17; v10 = (v18 << 8) | (unsigned int)v19; goto LABEL_22; } if ( !(_DWORD)is_resume ) goto LABEL_32; if ( !check_tz_magic_800A82 ) {   is_resume = 0LL; LABEL_32: v20 = 0; clear_kbl_param_801C0C; goto LBL_123; } if ( copy_kbl_param_to_0x4001FD00_801C1E ) {   is_resume = 1LL; goto LABEL_32; } is_resume = 1LL; v20 = 1; LBL_123: emmc_key_reg = dword_E0070004; if ( emmc_key_reg & 1 ) {   set_status(82LL); report_error_808CAA(2LL, 82LL, 0x800F0029LL, 0LL); ret = 0x800F0029; goto LABEL_97; } sub_806B58(0x40000500LL, 0x1000LL); set_status(84LL);

Coldboot/resume is determined from bit 7 of boot_type returned by syscon. Then, something with dram??? If boot type is resume but TZ magic word (0x9E3199B7) isn't present, it changes boot type to coldboot.

If coldboot, KBL Param at 0x1F000100 is cleared, otherwise it's restored from 0x4001FD00. Then, some check on emmc crypto reg??? ???

Factory firmware check
a3 = 0; v8 = get_factory_fw_801BAC((__int64)&a3); v50 = v8; if ( (_DWORD)v8 ) {   v9 = 84LL; goto LABEL_21; } v10 = a3; if ( a3 >= 0x3600001 ) {   v8 = 0x800F0030LL; v50 = 0x800F0030; v9 = 84LL; goto LABEL_22; } keyring_writeX_80250C(0x50FLL, (__int64)&a3, 4LL); set_status(85LL);

Factory firmware version is retrieved from idstorage and written to keyring slot 0x50F. The factory firmware must be not higher than this second_loader version, otherwise the boot is aborted to prevent downgrading below factory firmware version.

IDPS and OpenPSID
ret = idps_and_openpsid_800B06; v50 = ret; if ( !ret ) {   set_status(95LL);

IDPS and OpenPSID are retrieved from idstorage and written to keyslots 0x509 and 0x50D.

eeprom protection
On 0.995 and 3.60 the following lines are protected after starting arm: 0x0-0x7F, 0x140-0x17F, 0x200-0x203, 0x206-0x20D, 0x344-0x353, 0x400-0x47F, 0x502-0x57F, 0x700-0x77F

The protection it sets is 0x1C1F (so f00d read disabled).

Bypassing version checks
Cmep keyring 0x50B (mgmt data) offset 0x4 bit 1 set = ignore version mismatch errors. This keyring itself is set from reading SNVS block 0 using Syscon command 0xD2. Alternatively set version to 0xDEADBEEF to skip version checks.

Session key/coredump encryption
0x20 random bytes are generated and written to keyslot 0x51A. Then, the buffer is encrypted with aes128-cbc using coredump_key and coredump_iv. The result is copied to KBL Param +0x100 (0x1F000200)
