ipc-depth-rest2 (2026-10-27): remaining stub IPC rows, network rows through OnlineProvider

Branch claude/ipc-depth-rest2-2026-10-27 (base orchestrate/2026-10-27-b3 06a0205). Cloud (Linux) session: everything below is tested on Linux, not verified on macOS.

What changed

IPC scan (IPC_STUB } rows, whole runtime) 1009 impl / 125 stub -> 1056 / 98. In the owned files 29 -> 2 (account 8->0, vi 8->2, mii_img 4->0, ns 3->0, settings 3->0, offline.c 3->0). - bsd (offline.c, bsd_core.c): DuplicateSocket aliases the descriptor (bsdg_dup; the provider socket closes with the last alias); SendMMsg/RecvMMsg marshal FreeBSD LP64 mmsghdr arrays with iovecs. RegisterClient is untouched and still answers 0 (a nonzero id broke SMO boot). - OnlineProvider (online_provider.h): table grown at the end (ABI version stays 1, ONLINE_FN hides the new entries from older modules): caps ONLINE_CAP_LDN, ONLINE_CAP_ACCOUNT; ldn scan/create/destroy/connect/disconnect/get_network/set_advertise/reject; account_info. No Nintendo service code, no endpoints. - ldn (ldn.c, ldn_core.c): GetNetworkInfo, GetIpv4Address, GetSecurityParameter, GetNetworkConfig, Scan, CreateNetwork, Connect, Disconnect, Reject, SetAdvertiseData, GetDisconnectReason go through the provider; NetworkInfo (0x480) encode/decode in the core. NullProvider answers are unchanged. - account (account.c): CheckAvailability / GetAccountId / NA resource cache from account_info when linked, else the old offline answers; InitializeApplicationInfo{V0,,V2} remembered per connection; registration/switch-lock rows are documented constants. - vi (vi.c, new vi_core.*): layer table (scaling mode validation, position/size/z/visibility, stacks), display enable flag, binder refcounts, real ISystemDisplayService/IManagerDisplayService rows. TransactParcel/TransactParcelAuto stay stubs (the graphics back end never uses the producer). - mii_img (new mii_img_core.*): in-memory image database (100 slots), supplied JPEGs stored as given, otherwise a deterministic 96x96 face JPEG generated from the Mii id with the portable JPEG encoder. - ns: GetApplicationControlData, GetApplicationContentPath, ResolveApplicationContentPath read <data_dir>/control.nacp (mod-glue-core writes it at build time); not found without it. - settings: GetKeyCodeMap/2/3 return a US layout (16 bytes per HID usage). - Tests: new test_svc_account.c, test_svc_vi.c, test_svc_mii_img.c; extended test_svc_online.c (dup, mmsg), test_svc_ldn.c (provider network over the loopback provider), test_svc_ns.c, test_svc_settings.c; tests/online_loopback.h gained ldn/account. tests/linux/run.sh adds -I../gfx/include for vi. 86 rows appended to known_calls_ipc_depth.txt.

Decisions

  • NullProvider paths must keep today's answers (success, fixed ids), because an error where a title saw success has broken boot before (bsd RegisterClient).
  • Command ids and argument layouts for the new rows are from memory of the public documentation (unverified); unknown layouts are read leniently and never fatal.
  • nifm: no new rows added. The existing nifm ids are the author's numbering and adding rows at guessed ids risks collisions; nifm already routes through net_info/net_connect.

Not verified

Nothing here was compiled or run on macOS. Mac checks remaining: make -C runtime test-services, LAS/SMO/ACNH/MK8D headless boot 45 s, and a Mii applet run using miiimg.
