Every Marvel's Wolverine cheat crashed the console; CheatRunner's worked.
Our engine PT_ATTACHed the game, set the protection byte of the vm_map
entry holding the address to RWX with kernel_mprotect, wrote with PT_IO,
and "restored" it to R-X. Measured on the Pro (FW 13.60): the game's
.text is one 95 MiB entry (0x400000-0x6324000), execute-only (0x04), so
each toggle made the whole executable RWX under a copy-on-write PT_IO
write and left it R-X. kernel_mprotect edits the entry byte directly (no
pmap update, no split); CheatRunner traced two kernel panics to that
call and moved to the page-table walk this commit uses.
- Read/write through kernel_proc_getpaddr + the direct map (mdbg as a
fallback), inside kernel_rw_lock; read back after every write. No
ptrace stop, no protection change.
- Apply a cheat as a whole: every location is read and checked against
its cheat and original bytes before anything is written; on a write
failure the earlier writes are undone. The old engine wrote whichever
locations matched, so a jump could land without its code cave.
- Write code caves before the jumps into them when turning on, and the
reverse when turning off (cheats_plan.c, host-tested on the real
Wolverine pack).
- Refuse a cheat the parser had to truncate, and a base of 0.
- Toggle state is keyed by the flat index across all of a title's files;
a toggle in the second file used to mark the first file's mods, which
the watcher then re-applied at the next launch.
Verified on the Pro with Wolverine running: God Mode, Max Resources/XP
(20 locations), Infinite Item Charges and an MC4 Infinite Health on and
off, 60 s each, game and console stayed up; a clashing MC4 cheat was
refused with nothing written.

- A text save is refused (409 busy) while an upload and a download both run,
so at least two of the four web workers stay free.
- Throughput floor: uploads, downloads and .tar streams are dropped below
1 KiB/s averaged over 60 s, on top of the 20 s idle timeout.
- Early refusals on streamed routes read off up to 64 KiB / 2 s first, so
the page gets the real error code.
- Leftover .ps5u-*.part files older than 24 h in the target folder are swept
at upload begin and text save (that folder only, lstat, links untouched).
- A Range header too long to keep is ignored (200, whole file), not a 400.
- The editor saves with the file's dominant line ending and says when lone
CRs will be normalised (new string in all 21 locales).
- Upload dialog free-space separator; Upload/Download hidden also when the
page is opened by the console's own LAN address (from /api/settings).
- The .tar walk starts from the canonical root and resolves the trust
store's forms once per archive instead of a realpath per entry.

When PS5Upload Files is opened from a phone or PC on the LAN (not from the
console itself), Files offers Upload here and Download.
Upload: POST /api/upload/begin checks path policy, the folder, an existing
name (409 exists / not_a_file) and free space (507) before any byte is sent
and reserves the one upload slot (409 busy; forgotten after 30 s); the bytes
follow as POST /api/upload/data?id= (streamed, idle timeout 20 s), written
to a temp file beside the target and renamed only when complete, so a cancel
or a dropped client leaves nothing. /api/upload/cancel frees a reservation.
The page sends files (or a folder, where the browser can pick one) one at a
time with progress, Skip this file / Stop, and Skip / Keep both / Replace
for names already there.
Download: /api/download/begin hands out a /dl/<ticket>/<name> link (128-bit,
for that item only, 60 s after last use) that the browser saves with a plain
navigation: a file with Content-Length and Range, a folder as a .tar streamed
as it is read (pax for long names and > 8 GiB sizes, links and other mounts
left out). One download at a time; trust store and its ancestors refused.
Measured on the Phat (13.60, LAN), 1 GiB: upload 66-75 MiB/s, download
111 MiB/s, folder .tar 101 MiB/s. Strings in all 21 locales.

Info gets a Permissions editor (owner/group/other x read/write/run, octal,
"apply to everything inside" for folders; exFAT/FAT drives say permissions
are not kept). /api/fs/chmod takes an optional mode (<= 0777) for the item
alone (FS_CHMOD) or recursively (CHMOD_R job); without it, Fix permissions
is unchanged.
New file (toolbar + sheet) makes an empty file and opens it in the new text
editor; Edit / Edit as text opens any file up to 1 MiB that is valid UTF-8
without NUL. Saves go through POST /api/fs/save-text: the web server can now
hand a request to a streamed route after the token check (body read by the
route with an idle timeout, not the 5 s header deadline); the save is
refused over 1 MiB or with a NUL, checks the mtime/size (and mtime_ns, now in
/api/fs/stat) the editor read before writing and again before the rename,
and writes a same-folder temp file that keeps the old mode and is renamed
onto the file after a same-device check (webui_files.c, host selftest;
cross_device.h audit updated). CRLF files stay CRLF; a changed file asks
Save anyway / Discard; ↑/↓ stay inside the text box until its first/last
line. Phone width: tools wrap, rows tighten, dialogs fit (no sideways
scroll). Strings in all 21 locales.

- HearBridge discovery has an 8 s overall deadline, tries the remembered
port first and stops after the first connect timeout; reads can't
outlast the deadline.
- The HearBridge routes refuse a console address with whitespace,
control characters or URL syntax before any request; routes are
tested at the axum level (unknown action and bad host are 400s).
- HearBridge is read every 15 s while its card is collapsed, 5 s with
Manage open; the User-Agent comment now says what it does and doesn't
avoid. A failed scan no longer waits for results.
- Marker checks wait for the catalogue and stand aside during transfers.

an Update.
- Removed the seven translations the old tabs used.

HearBridge (Bluetooth headset audio) gets an integration card on On your
PS5. The engine talks to it for the app (its page sends no CORS
headers): new /api/ps5/hearbridge/{status,saved,devices,action} routes
find it on 8090..8095, read its status with the token stripped, and
pass only volume, mute, night mode, latency, reconnect, scan, select
and stop, each checked against the ranges HearBridge takes. The token
is read fresh per change and never leaves the engine.
The card shows the stream state, headset, battery, link quality,
delay, codec, volume and game profile; Manage has the volume and
latency sliders, mute, night mode, reconnect, scan and connect, saved
headsets, recent events and a link to HearBridge's own page for
pairing, EQ and backups. Stop uses HearBridge's clean stop. An absent
or older HearBridge shows "HearBridge didn't answer" with the page
link. A card opened by a link now scrolls into view.

Payloads now has three tabs: Catalog, Send and On your PS5 (the default
once a console is connected, and the only tab in the web UI). On your
PS5 shows a card for every payload running or installed on the console,
found from the process list and each payload's marker file, plus
running payloads the catalogue doesn't know. A card opens the payload's
web page, offers an update when the catalogue has a newer release than
the running version, stops it (the existing kill confirm), and for
ShadowMount+, nanoDNS and Payload Manager expands to the panel that used
to be its own tab.
Ports moved next to Processes: the screen is now Processes & ports with
two tabs. Old links (?tab=manager|shadowmount|nanodns|ports,
/payloads/<integration>, /nanodns, /shadowmount) land on the card or on
the Ports tab.

Restore all from USB could restore one user's backup into another's

the game and user, and keep USB backups in a per-user folder (legacy

SEARCH / CANCEL (handlers unchanged; the engine never calls them). Their
bodies are scanned quote to quote, so every root and pattern is checked
for no '"', '\' or control character and < 256 bytes (codec, selftested).
Roots: 1-8, absolute, never the trust store (403). The page's last start
(roots, started_at, cancelled) is remembered so status says whether the
index there is the page's and what it covers. Search answers at most 500
results, filters by `under` (asking the helper's 5,000 for a folder) and
never returns a trust-store path; truncated when the helper's limit or
the page's is reached. JSON buffers on the heap.
Page: Search (toolbar) — name or * / ? pattern (a word matches anywhere),
all drives or this folder; the first search builds the index for that
scope with a running count and Cancel, then searches; a covering index
is reused; results (name, folder, size) open in Files at the item. An

APP_DB_QUERY answered at most 256 rows, and fewer when its 64 KiB reply
filled, with nothing saying the list was cut. A title installed by a
homebrew installer (no /user/appmeta folder) that sorted past that point
disappeared from the installed list.
Payload: app.db.query takes an optional {"offset","limit"} window and
answers offset/next/more/truncated; a full buffer now ends the page with
more=true instead of closing the list. An empty request is page one, so
older engines keep working.
Engine: appdb_query follows the pages (at most 32) and marks the list
truncated when it could not finish (or an older helper returned a full
256). The installed list reads app.db once per request, adds registered
titles whose app folder exists, reports incomplete, and a truncated list
never proves a title absent for install verification.

Fix round 2. The helper refused a request under 500 ms after the last one (429),
which caught the final batch sent as Controls closes, right after a regular one,
so ○ was still lost. The gate is now a pure, host-tested function: one request
marked {"final":true} is admitted inside the window, once per window, each body
still at most 4 KiB. The page marks its final batch (keepalive, cut to fit with
the flag) and sends it only after a regular send still on the wire, so the two
never arrive out of order.
