Previously, ILibraryAppletAccessor would signal upon creation of any applet, but this is incorrect. A flag inside of the applet code determines whether or not creation should signal state change and swkbd happens to be one of these applets.
Load() is already given the process instance as a parameter, so instead
of coupling the class to the System class, we can just forward that
parameter to LoadNro()
The kernel uses the handle table of the current process to retrieve the
process that should be used to retrieve certain information. To someone
not familiar with the kernel, this might raise the question of "Ok,
sounds nice, but doesn't this make it impossible to retrieve information
about the current process?".
No, it doesn't, because HandleTable instances in the kernel have the
notion of a "pseudo-handle", where certain values allow the kernel to
lookup objects outside of a given handle table. Currently, there's only
a pseudo-handle for the current process (0xFFFF8001) and a pseudo-handle
for the current thread (0xFFFF8000), so to retrieve the current process,
one would just pass 0xFFFF8001 into svcGetInfo.
The lookup itself in the handle table would be something like:
template <typename T>
T* Lookup(Handle handle) {
if (handle == PSEUDO_HANDLE_CURRENT_PROCESS) {
return CurrentProcess();
}
if (handle == PSUEDO_HANDLE_CURRENT_THREAD) {
return CurrentThread();
}
return static_cast<T*>(&objects[handle]);
}
which, as is shown, allows accessing the current process or current
thread, even if those two objects aren't actually within the HandleTable
instance.
Our implementation of svcGetInfo was slightly incorrect in that we
weren't doing proper error checking everywhere. Instead, reorganize it
to be similar to how the kernel seems to do it.
We can just return a new instance of this when it's requested. This only
ever holds pointers to the existing registed caches, so it's not a large
object. Plus, this also gets rid of the need to keep around a separate
member function just to properly clear out the union.
Gets rid of one of five globals in the filesystem code.
This is the same behavior-wise as DeleteDirectoryRecursively, with the
only difference being that it doesn't delete the top level directory in
the hierarchy, so given:
root_dir/
- some_dir/
- File.txt
- OtherFile.txt
The end result is just:
root_dir/
More hardware accurate. On the actual system, there is a differentiation between the signaler and signalee, they form a client/server relationship much like ServerPort and ClientPort.
These parameters don't need to utilize a shared lifecycle directly in
the interface. Instead, the caller should provide a regular reference
for the function to use. This also allows the type system to flag
attempts to pass nullptr and makes it more generic, since it can now be
used in contexts where a shared_ptr isn't being used (in other words, we
don't constrain the usage of the interface to a particular mode of
memory management).
While we're at it, organize the array linearly, since clang formats the
array elements quite wide length-wise with the addition of the missing
'u'.
Technically also fixes patch lookup and icon lookup with Portuguese,
though I doubt anyone has actually run into this issue.
