Line 129:

* If svcReturnFromException passes the exception the KDebug, ie. if the argument errorCode is not 0, and if the latter has DontCatchExceptions set, the process is terminated (unless errorCode is 0x10001).

* Performance improvements to svcInvalidateProcessDataCache.

====FIRM Sysmodules====

All FIRM sysmodules were updated. Specific diffs for a few sysmodules are below:

=====[[Loader services|Loader]]=====

* A single null byte stack overflow due to strcat usage was fixed in content path parsing. See [[Switch System Flaws]] for details.

* System Resource Size ([[NPDM]] +0x14) is now allowed to be non-zero for applets in addition to applications.

=====[[Process Manager services|PM]]=====

Memory management initialization was greatly changed:

* PM no longer hardcodes five memory profiles, and no longer calls smcGetConfig to determine which profile to use.

* Instead, PM now uses [[SVC|svcGetResourceLimitLimitValue]] to determine how much space the kernel has allotted for Application + Applet regions and [[SVC|svcGetSystemInfo]] to determine the total physical memory available, and sets the System region size to (Total Memory Size - Application region size - Applet region size - 5 MiB).
