Only enabled for NCCHs that do not have an override romfs.
LayeredFS files should be put in the `load` directory in User Directory. The directory structure is similar to yuzu's but currently does not allow named mods yet. Replacement files should be put in `load/mods/<Title ID>/romfs` while patches/stubs should be put in `load/mods/<Title ID>/romfs_ext`.
The BPS format allows distributing patches that are smaller and that do
not contain copyrighted content if data is relocated
(unlike non-trivial IPS patches).
This is essential for games such as MM3D that have three barely
different code revisions. Supporting all three versions would
demand an unreasonable amount of work; with BPS patches only one
version has to be supported.
This changes ApplyCodePatch to return a ResultStatus, which makes it
possible to determine whether patch applying has failed. Previously,
only a boolean was returned, and false was returned when no patch
was found OR when a patch was found but applying it failed.
This also changes AppLoader_NCCH to return an error if patching fails
because the executable is likely to be left in an inconsistent state
and we should not proceed booting in that case.
Fixes a regression from #4862, which caused the NCCH title ID checking
heuristic to be skipped whenever the exheader is replaced.
I was thinking the heuristic wouldn't be needed in that case, but it
turns out that many users still have pathological NCCHs that indicate
they are encrypted but are actually decrypted...
Now the original exheader is always read and used for the heuristic
to determine whether the NCCH is actually encrypted; only then do we
load a replacement exheader (if it exists) to avoid affecting the
heuristic.
Require and assume that override exheaders are decrypted for
consistency with Luma's loader behaviour and to ensure consistent
behaviour regardless of whether the NCCH is marked as encrypted or not.
Currently, exheader overriding with an encrypted NCCH would cause
the title ID checking heuristic to mistakenly disable encryption,
which would then make exefs loading fail.
This allows an IPS patch to edit .bss. This is useful for game patches
that need to add code, as putting things in .bss allows adding new code
*without* editing .code and thus without having to relocate everything.
Currently, having a replacement code.bin causes Citra to crash as it is
trying to load icon data from code.bin because of a typo. This commit
fixes that typo.
These kinds of casts invoke undefined behavior, due to both the aliasing
rule, and from an alignment point-of-view. Use the way that's guaranteed
to always work instead.
* loader/ncch: split NCCH parsing into its own file
* loader/ncch: add support for loading update NCCHs from the SD card
* loader/ncch: fix formatting
* file_sys/ncch_container: Return a value for OpenFile
* loader/ncch: cleanup, always instantiate overlay_ncch to base_ncch
* file_sys/ncch_container: better encryption checks, allow non-app NCCHs to load properly and for the existence of NCCH structures to be checked
* file_sys/ncch_container: pass filepath as a const reference
