mergeBesideReturns ignores the edges into blocks that only lead to a return
when it looks for the merge of a selection whose arms do not meet. It only
recognized a straight run of single-predecessor blocks ending in a return,
so an arm whose return path branches again (an early return inside a
nested if/else) still counted as a block of its own, the arms had no
common post-dominator, and the whole program fell back to flag
structurization ("conditional block 0 has no structured merge").
A block now returns when it has one predecessor, is dominated by the
header and every successor returns. Flag structurization turns every
original block into a guarded region, and the register phis at the region
joins carry values from paths that never reach a later use: in Resident
Evil 4 (PPSA07411) pixel program 0x20762add00 the T# of an image_load
became Phi(0, load through Phi(user data, compare mask)) and resource
analysis refused it. Structured, the T# is the load through the user-data
pointer and the program prepares, captures and materializes.

About
Tool for automatic executables porting to Linux and Windows.
Web converter - files stay on your device.
Includes a relinker that converts executable to the target system's native format and implementations of system prx libraries suitable for dynamic linking. No emulation or separate runtime process.

Status
* System libraries: percentage of the functions known to the project so far (declared in core/libs/prx), not of every PS5 system function. The total grows as more functions are declared.
Unsupported or unexpected states strictly throw std::runtime_error. what() is printed to stderr and the process terminates.
The shader recompiler successfully produces SPIR-V (validated via Spirv-Tools when built with ANYPS5_ENABLE_SPIRV_TOOLS).
Compatibility
Per-game progress (stage reached, open blockers, libraries and GPU coverage) is tracked on the blocker map, a community project built from public GitHub data (source). Test reports go in the Game bring-up discussions, one thread per title.
Input mapping
SDL-mapped game controllers are supported, including analog sticks and triggers. Keyboard and mouse controls can be configured with an anyps5-input.ini file. See input mapping for the supported devices and configuration format.
