Depending on the F00D SELF that is currently loaded, different commands are handled.

Request Buffer

Each request that is made sends a page aligned buffer that has a max size of a page. After as 64 byte header common to all commands, the data afterwards is specific to each command. The documentation for each command below specifies the data that goes after the header. The special command id of -1 (0xFFFFFFFF) is used to shut down the currently loaded F00D SELF.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 Size of buffer
0x4 0x4 Command ID
0x8 0x4 Return value (output)
0xC 0x34 Unknown/Unused
0x40 Variable (max 0xFC0) Command specific buffer

Physical Address List

A common format used in these requests is a list of physical address and size. This simple structure is defined below. See sceKernelVARangeToPARangeForDriver for information on creating this list.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 Physical Address
0x4 0x4 Size

This data format is used when passing large buffers of data to F00D. This is because the memory manager in kernel could allocate contiguous virtual addresses that corresponds to varying physical addresses.

kprx_auth_sm.self

This is a special SELF that is found in the boot SLB2 partition. The raw (encrypted) SELF is found in secure world memory (placed there by an early bootloader). It is used to decrypt SELFs for ARM. The SELF header is passed into a page aligned buffer and a paddr list is generated from it.

0x10001 sceSblAuthMgrAuthHeaderForKernel

Used by sceSblAuthMgrAuthHeaderForKernel.

Checks the SELF header for decryption. The header is copied to the F00D private memory region first (on 1.69 with 0x1000 sized header, it is at 0x00811CC0 in F00D memory space.

Offset Size Description
0x40 0x130 SceSblSmCommContext130
0x170 0x4 Number of paddr list entries for buffer
0x174 0x4 Physical address of paddr list

0x20001 sceSblAuthMgrLoadSegmentForKernel

0x48 0x8 Unknown

0x30001 sceSblAuthMgrLoadBlockForKernel

Used by sceSblAuthMgrLoadBlockForKernel.

Decrypt a buffer from the SELF corresponding to the program segment number passed in above. The segment is read in 0x10000 bytes chunks and is decrypted in place (the input buffer will contain the decrypted data). A paddr list is generated from the buffer. The input buffer and output buffer can be the same.

Offset Size Description
0x40 0x4 Number of entries in input paddr list
0x44 0x4 Physical address of the input paddr list

update_service_sm.self

This is used by SceSblUpdateMgr to decrypt update packages extracted from PUP files. Both 0x40002 and 0x50002 reference buffers in the following way: an inner paddr list is generated for the buffer containing the data to encrypt/decrypt, then an outer paddr list is generated for the inner list. That means there's two levels of indirection in the paddr list.

0x10002 sceSblUsSmAuthPupHeader

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_AUTH_PUP_HEADER.

Verify PUP header.

Input data size: 0xFF0.

0x20002 sceSblUsSmAuthPupSegment

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_AUTH_PUP_SEGMENT.

Input data size: 0xFF0.

0x40002 sceSblUsSmAuthSpkg

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_AUTH_SPKG.

Offset Size Description
0x40 0x8 Set to 0x0
0x48 0x8 Set to 0x1
0x50 0x14 struct paddr_list_req for Paddr list below
0x64 0x14 struct paddr_list_req for pkg buffer
0x78 Variable (max 0xF48) Copy of paddr list for pkg buffer (contents described at 0x50)

0x50002 sceSblUsSmEncryptIndividualSLSK

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_ENCIND_SLSK.

Re-encrypt individual SLSK files (.enp files).

Offset Size Description
0x40 0x8 Unknown/Zero
0x48 0x8 Set to 1
0x50 0x14 struct paddr_list_req for paddr list copied to 0x78. Only count field is used.
0x64 0x14 struct paddr_list_req for inner paddr list. Not used.
0x78 Variable (max 0xF88) outer paddr list / paddr list to paddr list to encrypt

Each inner paddr list is first copied to temporary f00d memory, then they all are checked for validity at once. Maximum size of inner list is 0xff7 (so probably 0xff7 / 8 * 8 = 0xff0). Any lengths higher than that result in SCE_SBL_ERROR_SL_ENOMEM = 0x800f020c.

How it works:

  • first, all inner entries are checked for validity, if something's invalid, bail out SCE_SBL_ERROR_SL_EINVAL 0x800f0216
  • start at last outer entry and move towards the first
  • if current entry looks valid (length >= 8), proceed to inner paddr encryption
  • if no valid entries found, error=SCE_SBL_ERROR_SL_EINVAL 0x800f0216
  • if multiple valid entries found, error=SCE_SBL_ERROR_SL_EIO 0x800f0205 (???) (but the first one found is always encrypted)
  • if only one valid entry is found, return success

Bugs(?):

  • encrypting same paddr twice or more times within a single inner paddr list always results in same output, no matter what input was, reproducible with length=0x10 or less
  • sum(inner list sizes) must be <= 0xFF0, but there's no overflow check, a large inner list causes f00d to overwrite memory with data like:
00:00:26	0 // this is paddr 0x1F000000
00:00:26	0
00:00:26	0
00:00:26	2000

0x60002 sceSblUsSmSnvsEncryptSectors

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_SNVS_ENC_SECTORS.

The input is plain sectors.

Calculates a XTS Encrypt using the per console keys in keyring slot 0x502, and 0x503 for the tweak and decryption keys. Appears to be intended for up to 0x3E0 bytes in size, but the size in F00D packet +4 derives the XTS size and memcpy.

The result is XTS encrypted sectors.

Data size is 8 bytes + sectors size. 

typedef struct data { // size is variable, at least 0x28 bytes
  int sectors_index; // input
  int sectors_count; // input
  char sectors[0x20 * sectors_count]; // input: read from NVS.
} data;

0x70002 sceSblUsSmSnvsDecryptSectors

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_SNVS_DEC_SECTORS.

The input is XTS encrypted sectors.

Calculates a XTS Decrypt using the per console keys in keyring slot 0x502, and 0x503 for the tweak and decryption keys. Appears to be intended for up to 0x3E0 in size, but the size in F00D packet +4 derives the XTS size and memcpy.

The result is plain sectors.

Data size is 8 bytes + sectors size. 

typedef struct data { // size is variable, at least 0x28 bytes
  int sectors_index; // input
  int sectors_count; // input
  char sectors[0x20 * sectors_count]; // input: read from NVS.

0x80002 sceSblUsSmSnvsEncryptMgmtData

SCE_SBL_SM_COMM_FID_SM_SNVS_ENC_MGMT.

The input are the new status and flags, and the current mgmt_data read from NVS at offset 0.

Calculates a XTS Decrypt using the per console keys in keyring slot 0x502, and 0x503 for the tweak and decryption keys. It then calculates an HMAC using the keyring 0x504 to check the block passed in. If ok, then it uses the seed 0xACA9B1AC to recalculate the block, generate a new hmac, and xts encrypt the block.

The result is a new mgmt_data, which is to be written to NVS at offset 0.

Data size is 0x28 bytes. 

typedef struct data { // size is 0x28 bytes
  int status; // input
  char flags[4]; // input
  char mgmt_data[0x20]; // input: read from NVS at offset 0. Likely to be 0x10 bytes of data followed by 0x10 bytes of HMAC.

The result is the current status and flags.

Data size is 0x28 bytes. 

typedef struct data { // size is 0x28 bytes
  int status; // output
  char flags[4]; // output
  char mgmt_data[0x20]; // input: read from NVS at offset 0. Likely to be 0x10 bytes of data followed by 0x10 bytes of HMAC.
} data;
// SCE_SBL_SS_SNVS_FLAGS
#define SCE_SBL_SS_SNVS_UPDATER_FLAG_INDEX 0

If flags[SCE_SBL_SS_SNVS_UPDATER_FLAG_INDEX] is not set, updater init is skipped: 

if (((byte)flags & 1) == 0)
        sceKernelPrintfLevelForDriver(2, "skip init for updater\n");
      else {
        sceKernelPrintfLevelForDriver(2, "do init for updater\n");
        if (SpkgInfoUtilInitForUpdater(&status, &flags) != 0)
