Coverage is measured against the file list each platform declares, using that platform's own verification mode.
|

Source-backed counts the files whose expectations were also read from an emulator's source code; the rest rely on the platform list alone. A dash means no profiled emulator applies to the platform, whose own source is then the only authority.
|
||||
Source-backed counts the files whose content the emulator's own code checks: a size or hash read from its source, reproduced at verification. Files a profile documents without a content check are counted separately on the [gap analysis](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/gaps/) page. A dash means no profiled emulator applies to the platform, whose own source is then the only authority.

Where platform lists and emulator source code disagree, the differences are tracked in the [gap analysis](https://abdess.github.io/retrobios/gaps/).
