From 38a2fdcd765f50044735ee9ecdcdb055a5ad3a99 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Scire Date: Sun, 11 Apr 2021 03:36:31 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] docs: add changelog for 0.19.0 --- docs/changelog.md | 40 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 40 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/changelog.md b/docs/changelog.md index 939f4235c..a8978916e 100644 --- a/docs/changelog.md +++ b/docs/changelog.md @@ -1,4 +1,44 @@ # Changelog +## 0.19.0 ++ Support was added for 12.0.0. + + `mesosphère` was updated to reflect the latest official kernel behavior. + + `sm`, `boot2`, `pgl` were updated to reflect the latest official behaviors. + + **Please Note**: 12.0.0 added a new protocol for IPC ("tipc"), which has been freshly reimplemented in its entirety. + + It is possible there may be as of yet unfound issues; if there are, please send the appropriate crash reports to SciresM (SciresM#0524 on discord). + + `erpt` was partially updated to reflect the latest official behaviors. + + New features were added to erpt to track the activity of running applets, and to detect when a forced shutdown occurs. + + These behaviors have been temporarily stubbed, as they are not necessary for 12.0.0 to run (and their outputs won't be saved anywhere). + + A future atmosphère update will implement these behaviors, in the interest of reflecting official logic as faithfully as we can. ++ Atmosphère no longer uses the /contents/ folder for its own programs. + + Atmosphère's system modules are now bundled together in the single file "stratosphere.romfs". + + For those working on developing for atmosphère, executables inside the /contents/ directory will be preferred to those in "stratosphere.romfs". + + **Please Note**: In order to facilitate this change (and the desired behavior), the first time you boot after extracting a release zip, atmosphère system modules inside /contents/ will be deleted. + + This will have no impact on user programs (it only removes programs with specific program ids). ++ Improvements were made to mesosphere, including: + + An extension InfoType was added for getting the current process handle, without having to spawn a thread and do IPC with oneself. + + An issue was fixed in SvcSetDebugThreadContext. + + An issue was fixed when doing IPC with user buffers. ++ Support was fixed for toggling the custom setting `usb!usb30_force_enabled` on 9.0.0+. + + This was broken by Nintendo's introducing a dependency that made USB a requirement to launch before custom settings are parsed. + + Since the fix, you can now toggle the setting (as you could prior to atmosphère 0.9.4), and it will work as expected. + + **Please Note**: Enabling USB 3.0 often severely impacts wireless communications. + + Because of this, the setting will default to off. If you experience issues with it enabled, consider disabling it. ++ A warning was added to daybreak when resetting the console to factory settings. ++ Substantial work was completed towards atmosphere's upcoming implementation of the host target connection protocol. + + Once completed, users will be able to interact with a Switch running atmosphère via a PC application ("Starlink") currently under development. + + Planned eventual features for connected consoles include a gdbstub, interacting with memory (for cheat development), streaming gameplay audio and video, and accessing the Switch's SD card filesystem. + + Switch homebrew will also have access to a (configurable and sandboxed) filesystem on the host PC, while connected. + + Towards this end, the following was accomplished: + + The "htc" system module was reimplemented completely. + + The system module which provides remote access to the SD card was reimplemented completely. + + This is currently the active focus of atmosphère's development. + + **Please Note**: Support is not yet completed, and users are disadvised from interacting with the related settings for the time being, unless they particularly know what they're doing. ++ A number of minor issues were fixed, including: + + A bug was fixed in `dmnt` that could cause a fatal when launching certain games with cheats active. + + An issue was fixed that could cause an abort in `sm` when using a large number of custom system modules. + + An issue was fixed that prevented launching gamecards on 1.0.0. + + Minor issues were fixed in the cheat virtual machine's behavior. ++ Several issues were fixed, and usability and stability were improved. ## 0.18.1 + A number of minor issues were fixed, including: + The new `dns.mitm` module added in 0.18.0 no longer fatal errors when receiving port=nullptr.
