====Kernel====

Kernel initialization has changed significantly.

* There is now a new loader program ("kernelldr") that runs before the kernel, and sets up KASLR/memory/etc. (kernelldr has its own .dynamic section).

* There is now a new loader program ("[[Kernel Loader|kernelldr]]") that runs before the kernel, and sets up KASLR/memory/etc. (kernelldr has its own .dynamic section).

* The INI1 containing the Initial Programs is no longer its own section inside of [[Package2]]. It is instead now embedded inside the kernel section, with kernelldr preparing it for the kernel.

* svcQueryIoMapping no longer accepts unaligned addresses as input when (input physaddr >= 0x1000). In addition, when input physaddr is < 0x1000, the kernel takes a new codepath to convert this to a different physical address.

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

* pm:shell now has a new command (9), which ~~currently just~~ does abort(). However, it ~~looks like in~~ a ~~future update it will return~~ an event ~~handle of some kind~~.

* pm:shell now has a new command (9), which does abort() in normal FIRM. However, when in safe mode, it returns a handle to an event that is signaled on IShellService->NotifyBootFinished(), before the embedded safemode boot2 runs.

== System Titles ==

* 1 new title was added: [[#FunctionBlackList|FunctionBlackList]].

* All titles were updated, except for the following: dictionaries, UrlBlackList, PlatformConfigHoag, miiEdit, and flog.

[[SSL_services#CertStore|CertStore]] RomFs: "/ssl_TrustedCerts.bdf" was updated.
