All files under RomFS were updated.

~~The only KIPs with IPC changes were~~ [[~~Filesystem_services|FS~~]], ~~[[Process_Manager_services|pm]]~~, and [[~~NCM_services~~|~~NCM~~]].

====Package1ldr====

Since [[6.2.0]], the following was changed (besides the usual constant changes for new fuse burnt, incremented version, etc):

* A function that returns a hardware type now returns 0xF whenever it would previously have returned a non-zero value.

** Code validating hardware type has been simplified accordingly.

* The function validating the bootloader version by parsing the BCT no longer hardcodes the BCT address as 0x40000100, and instead adds a relative offset to a BCT address specified via argument.

* The [[TSEC Firmware#SecureBoot|SecureBoot TSEC firmware]] was updated to prevent SMMU virtualization attacks.

====FIRM Sysmodules====

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

All FIRM sysmodules were updated. The only FIRM sysmodules with IPC changes were [[Filesystem_services|FS]], [[Process_Manager_services|pm]], and [[NCM_services|NCM]]. Specific diffs for a few sysmodules are below:

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

Resource limit initialization was changed:

* PM now ~~sets~~ the ~~maximum~~ number of threads ~~creatable by sysmodules~~ to ~~0x60 instead of 0x260~~.

* PM now dynamically calculates the number of extra threads available in the kernel's slab heap compared to the amount it is expecting.

** A [[Process Manager services#~~EnableAdditionalSystemThreads~~|new command]] was added to pm:shell to ~~increase this limit once~~, on retail this doubles the number of threads creatable to 0xC0.

** A [[Process Manager services#BoostApplicationThreadResourceLimit|new command]] was added to pm:shell to make these extra threads available to applications, on retail this doubles the number of threads creatable to 0xC0.

=====[[Filesystem services|FS]]=====

* Device Address Space initialization for nn::sdmmc is now handled differently.

** Previously, the shared SDMMC device address space handle was attached to all devices during global init prior to service registration.

** Now, the handle is attached to specific devices during their relevant DeviceAccessor::Initialize() call, which only happens when the relevant device is ready for access.

* (Many other differences not yet reversed/noted here.)

=====[[NCM services|NCM]]=====

* The ExpHeap used for generic and fs allocations was reduced from 3 MB to 1 MB in size.

==System Titles==

Line 66:

* CAction title: new directory "/table" was added. The new file "/table/431FA316E20941779452DD0EBFA05E0E/ApplicationId" contains string "0x01003a400c3da000" - "YouTube".

* Web-applets were updated. "/whitelist/WhitelistEc.txt" in LibAppletShop was updated: <nowiki>"^https://([0-9A-Za-z\-]+\.)*eshop\.nintendo\.net($|/)" was changed to "^https://([0-9A-Za-z\-]+\.)*nintendo\.net(/|$)"</nowiki>.

* ControllerFirmware: "/ukyosakyo_ep2_ota.bin" and ~~the~~ .csv were updated.

* ControllerFirmware: "/ukyosakyo_ep2_ota.bin" and FirmwareInfo.csv were updated (main firmware for JoyLeft/JoyRight).

* Titles BrowserDll and AvatarImage were updated.

* Both bad-word-list titles were updated.

Line 70:

Line 84:

* glue-sysmodule: now has access to service srepo:u.

* Various applets now have access to service "banana" (which still doesn't exist on retail).

=== [[USB_services|usb-sysmodule]] ===

* New services / commands were added.

* The codebin now has .json data embedded in the codebin for [[USB_services#HidGamepad|HidGamepad]] USB-devices.

=== [[Account_services|account-sysmodule]] ===

* Various .text changes. Besides those:

* The "v4-<hexstr>" URLs were changed to "v5" URLs.

* User-agent was changed to "libcurl (nnDauth; <hex>; SDK 7.3.0.0)".
