45 fonts from a PS4 firmware 11.00 dump (archive.org item
sony-ps4-system-font), checked against the item's md5 and sha1 and,
for 44 of them, byte for byte against the separate ps4font upload.
Each sits in the folder the console keeps it in: shadPS4 mounts
fonts/font and fonts/font2 as two guest folders (emulator.cpp:640-661),
so the ten font2 fonts move there and the seven font2 files the mount
also serves get entries.
The font library opens each SST font by its dumped or PS4 name in
fonts/, fonts/font/ and fonts/font2/ and falls back to the Noto fonts it
embeds, so the 38 entries are optional with an HLE fallback.
sys_modules/ is below shadPS4's user folder: user/ in the working
directory, else the XDG data folder (path_util.cpp:88-124). Batocera
and KNULLI start it from /userdata/system/configs/shadps4, so their
packs no longer carry bios/shadps4/sys_modules, which nothing read, and
name the modules instead. EmuDeck keeps its link at
bios/shadps4/sys_modules, and RetroBat places them in
emulators/shadps4/user/sys_modules.
Each standalone profile records where its version is read: the source
at its pin (clk 2026-07-23-136-g9020107, shadps4 0.20.1 WIP, eden
v0.2.0-401-g26a03d2), the APK, binary or archive read (kind package),
or, where no reading can be made, kind unverified with the reason: a
host the tools cannot read, a forge gone or not answering, no build
recorded as read, a pin on another branch. Those keep their value,
unconfirmed.
One run of profile_sync --all --rebase-refs --fresh. Every guard held:
no ref to review, no prose left under an older pin, no file name or hash
literal gained in a cited file since the pin, no built_by pin and no pin
keyed by build mode. The site's record of cited source paths is rebuilt
with them.
emulator: carried the file stem on 67 profiles, so site links read like ids. Each now takes the project's own name (libretro .info corename, README title, window title or site title). tests/test_profile_names.py allows the stem only on a commented list: lowercase project names, test cores, aliases and the template.
Every cited block was read again at HEAD: no ref left to review, no
file name or hash literal added to a cited file since the pin
(--detect-new-files --watch-hashes), refs recaled with their pins.
Profiles built by a platform at a fixed commit, or whose bump would
leave prose under an older pin, stay where they were.
Profiles, the wiki, comments, docstrings, command output and schema descriptions carried em-dashes, clause-joining semicolons, unicode arrows, box-drawing banners and check-mark glyphs. Each sentence was rewritten rather than having its character swapped. Hashes, paths, source_ref values and every cited file:line are unchanged, which a comparison of each parsed profile against the previous revision confirms.
validate_pr comments now say PASS and FAIL in words, and source_ref values in a profile's structured blocks render as code. test_prose_style fails if any of these comes back, in tracked files or in the generated site.
Upstream moved under 145 profiles: 679 refs shifted and 452 followed a
renamed file, against 6,483 that still anchor where they were written.
The recale rewrites the located ranges only, keeping the annotations and
the sentences that carry them, and 106 pins advance in the same commit
because refs and source_commit name one revision or the profile
describes two at once.
Nothing here was guessed. The 183 refs that are CHANGED, GONE or
AMBIGUOUS are untouched, and the 57 profiles holding them keep their old
pin until someone reads the diff: profile_sync refuses to recale a
profile while any of its refs needs a re-read. trident kept its pin too,
its annotated ref being one the writer will not rewrite.
Each name is one a platform or the buildbot uses for a core the
profile already documents; without it the reverse index cannot reach
the profile and target filtering skips it.
