# set_mitm
|
||||
set_mitm is a sysmodule that enables intercepting requests to the system settings service.
|
||||
|
||||
## Atmosphère Extensions
|
||||
|
||||
set_mitm intercepts the `GetFirmwareVersion` command, if the requester is `qlaunch` or `maintenance`.\
|
||||
It modifies the `display_version` field of the returned system version, causing the version to display\
|
||||
in settings as `#.#.# (AMS #.#.#)`. This allows users to easily verify what version of Atmosphère they are running.
|
||||
|
||||
set_mitm also intercepts the `GetSettingsItemValueSize` and `GetSettingsItemValue` commands for all requesters.\
|
||||
It does so in order to enable user configuration of system settings, which are parsed from `atmosphere/system_settings.ini` on boot.\
|
||||
The format for settings is described below.
|
||||
|
||||
### Atmosphère Settings Format
|
||||
|
||||
Settings are parsed from the `atmosphere/system_settings.ini` file during the boot process. This file is a normal ini file,\
|
||||
with some specific interpretations.
|
||||
|
||||
The standard representation of a system setting's identifier takes the form `name!key`. This is represented within\
|
||||
`system_settings.ini` as a section `name`, with an entry `key`. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[name]
|
||||
key = ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
System settings can have variable types (strings, integral values, byte arrays, etc). To accommodate this, `system_settings.ini`\
|
||||
must store values as a `type_identifier!value_store` pair. A number of different types are supported, with identifiers detailed below.\
|
||||
Please note that a malformed value string will cause a fatal error to occur on boot. A full example of a custom setting is given below\
|
||||
(setting `eupld!upload_enabled = 0`), for posterity:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
[eupld]
|
||||
upload_enabled = u8!0x0
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Supported Types
|
||||
|
||||
* Strings
|
||||
* Type identifiers: `str`, `string`
|
||||
* The value string is used directly as the setting, with null terminator appended.
|
||||
* Integral types
|
||||
* Type identifiers: `u8`, `u16`, `u32`, `u64`
|
||||
* The value string is parsed via a call to `strtoul(value, NULL, 0)`.
|
||||
* Setting bitwidth is determined by the identifier (8 for 1 byte, 16 for 2 bytes, and so on).
|
||||
* Raw bytes
|
||||
* Type identifiers: `hex`, `bytes`
|
||||
* The value string is parsed as a hexadecimal string.
|
||||
* The value string must be of even length, or a fatal error will be thrown on parse.
|
||||
|
||||
### Atmosphère Custom Settings
|
||||
|
||||
At present, Atmosphère implements no custom settings. However, this is subject to change in the future, and any\
|
||||
custom settings will be documented here as they are added.
