Previously, we were returning a value that was way too big, causing an integer overflow in Fractured Souls.
According to wwylele, the biggest oberserved save size for 3DS is 1MB, so this new value should leave plenty of room, even if games use a bigger size.
You can now directly place ExeFS overrides/patches inside the mod folder (instead of the exefs subfolder). This allows us to have drop-in compatibility with Luma3DS mods.
The original path (file_name.exefsdir) is still supported, but alternatively users can choose to put exefs patches in the same place as LayeredFS files (`load/mods/<Title ID>/exefs`).
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`.
This implementation is different from Luma3DS's which directly hooks the SDK functions. Instead, we read the RomFS's metadata and figure out the directory and file structure. Then, relocations (i.e. replacements/deletions/patches) are applied. Afterwards, we rebuild the metadata, and assign 'fake' data offsets to the files. When we want to read file data from this rebuilt RomFS, we use binary search to find the last data offset smaller or equal to the given offset and read from that file (either from the original RomFS, or from replacement files, or from buffered data with patches applied) and any later files when length is not enough.
The code that rebuilds the metadata is pretty complex and uses quite a few variables to keep track of necessary information like metadata offsets. According to my tests, it is able to build RomFS-es identical to the original (but without trailing garbage data) when no relocations are applied.
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.
