- Allow reuse of unused sections that fit exactly to selected allocation size. Decreases fragmentation dramatically.
- Always allocate and align mapped memory to selected alignment. Avoids having fragmented unused maps that are not aligned.
- Use a static alignment based on BPMP and generally average cache line size. Boosts performance when MMU is used.
Allow the patch loop to end via empty source data as per original spec and error out on 0 length if source data is not null.
emuMMC force decompression patch safely avoids that.
- Allow SHA to calculate sizes > 16MB and refactor sha function
- Name various registers and magic numbers
- Fix various key access bugs
In a later commit this new design will boost verification times significantly and also allow full SHA256 hashes.
Remove patches_template.ini load.
- It has useless patches, which some times, users confuse them for "bad" patches, even though they aren't.
- No one reads on how it works and it's constantly mishandled when there's no patches.ini (which completely overrides it).
- It was not supposed to be edited.
Also release will not include it anymore.
Template will still exist for demonstrating the syntax of `patches.ini`
This commit also corrects the patches.ini encoding note as ASCII.
Tsec keys function always disabled host1x clock after running.
This interferes with display interface and disables further window frame syncing.
Display_end code already handles disable and reset of said clock.
It also fixes an ancient bug that was mitigated by removing the 5 frame sync on HOST1X_SYNC_SYNCPT_9 at channel 0:
5fd9daa364 (diff-6b0c56eab8515465d559ff0ea73a22c3L152)
By using the key `id=` with a max 7 ASCII id, hekate will search all inis automatically and pinpoint the boot entry with that id.
After that it forces a boot from this one.
The format is described in patches.ini.
For now it only supports the kips defined in hekate's code.
Next versions will add support for defining other kips.
Add a configuration option "Full w/ hashfile" to
the "verification" option menu, to enable hashfile
generation when doing full verification of a backup.
When enabled, during full backup verification we save the
chunk's SHA256 digest in a hashfile next to the output file
we're currently verifying.
The performance impact is negligible between "Full verify"
and "Full verify w/ hashfile", because we already
compute the SHA256 of the chunks when verifying.
We save the SHA256 per chunks (4 MB) because due to
SE limitations, we can't compute the SHA256 of the
whole partition (or rawnand).
On the other hand a pure software implementation
is way too slow to be bearable, even asm-optimized:
between 15 and 90 seconds per 4 MB chunk for
crc32/sha1/sha256, depending on the optimizations
and the actual algorithm.
The output hash file format is as follows:
# chunksize: <CHUNKSIZE_IN_BYTES>
sha256_of_chunk_1
sha256_of_chunk_2
...
sha256_of_chunk_N
Some Sandisk U1 sd cards do not behave nicely if they power cycle too fast. A min 100ms wait, is enough to mitigate that.
Fortunately, because of how the code paths are structured, this was never hit.
[Stock]
fss0={sd path}
stock=1
Can now work for both older and new HOS versions.
- <= 6.2.0 loads nothing and removes kernel patching.
- >= 7.0.0 loads exo, wb and removes kernel patching.
This requires that fss0 {sd path} is valid. Otherwise it will fail on ini cfg parsing.
If <= 6.2.0 and no FSS0
[Stock]
stock=1
will provide a cleaner stock with no kernel patching.
Using "fss0={sd path}" allows you to parse kips, exosphere and warmboot from a fusee secondary binary.
Exosphere and warmboot are overridable if these entries are defined after that.
Additionally any extra kip can be loaded as before via
kip1={sd path}/* for many
or
kip1={sd path} for a sigle one
Warning: Don't double load core kips like loader, pm, sm and ams_mitm. The result will be a hang.
This is important, otherwise it can break tools like memloader.
Until a semi-usb init solution is found, hekate will show bootlogo and allow you to go to menu.
If >= 7.0.0 after that, it will run sept and then show logo again without a wait. For as long as rebuilding the boot process takes.
- Use always aligned buffers to up the speed for DMA usage. For verification, backup and restore.
- Rework verification a little bit and make default Sparse mode.
Sparse mode protects from fake sd cards, bad sectors and frequent I/O corruption. Aka, ~100% of cases.
- Make debugmode for exosphere mandatory
- Support dev RSA modulus for warmboot
- Fix a critical bug where it allowed free() to be used on a non-heap address.
- Better the makefile
- Still compatible with old hekate.
- Allows for hotfix control
- Sept is now copied from actual running payload, negating the need to check update.bin
- If a foreign payload is found in sept then it is renamed and hekate copies itself. After sept run, it renames it back and continues with boot.
