JB Runtime Verification Runbook
Archived research procedure. The commands and local file paths below describe the 2026-03-05 investigation and may not exist in the current checkout. For the current JB flow, see the VM guide and patch notes index.
This folder contains runtime + IDA verification artifacts for jailbreak kernel patches.
Quick Commands
Run runtime verification against a kernel file:
Refresh patch-doc tails from latest reports:
Core Artifacts
runtime_verification_report.json- Source of truth for runtime patch hit/no-hit status.
- Includes scheduler coverage (
methods_scheduled,doc_methods_unscheduled).
runtime_verification_summary.md- Human-readable summary.
runtime_patch_points.json- Flat list of runtime patch points used for IDA join.
ida_runtime_patch_points.json- Runtime points enriched with IDA function/disassembly context.
Current Baseline (2026-03-05)
- Kernel:
/Users/qaq/Documents/Firmwares/PCC-CloudOS-26.3-23D128/kernelcache.research.vphone600 - Runtime result:
22 hit / 2 nohit / 0 error - Default
KernelJBPatcher.find_all()scheduled methods:7 - Doc methods unscheduled:
17 - No-hit methods:
patch_post_validation_additionalpatch_syscallmask_apply_to_proc
Regression Gate
Treat verification as regressed if any of the following occurs:
status=errorappears inruntime_verification_report.json.- A previously
hitmethod becomesnohitwithout explicit scheduler/matcher change. methods_scheduled_countchanges unexpectedly from intended plan.doc_methods_unscheduledchanges unexpectedly.
