RequestLoad

Takes a #SharedFontType (uint32), no output.

GetLoadState

Takes a #SharedFontType (uint32), returns the #LoadState (uint32).

LoadState

Value Description
0x00 Loading
0x01 Loaded

GetSize

Takes a #SharedFontType (uint32), returns the Font Size (uint32).

GetSharedMemoryAddressOffset

Takes a #SharedFontType (uint32), returns the offset (uint32) to the Font Address.

GetSharedMemoryNativeHandle

No input, returns an output SharedMemory handle.

User-processes map this SharedMemory with size=0x1100000 and permissions=R--.

Font data is TTF, located at the offset returned by #GetSharedMemoryAddressOffset.

GetSharedFontInOrderOfPriority

Takes an input u64 LanguageCode and 3 type-0x6 output buffers, returns an output u8 and u32. The u8 is a bool to specify if the fonts are loaded or not and the u32 is the font count. The first buffer contains a list of Shared font types, the second buffer contains the font offsets and the final buffer contains the font sizes. The buffers are an array of u32s which specify information about a specific font. Buffer1[n] is related to Buffer2[n] and Buffer3[n]. Example: Font index 0s offset is at Buffer2[0], size is at Buffer3[0]. The fonts are relative to the shared memory created by #GetSharedFontSharedMemoryHandle

SharedFontType

Value Description

6 [4.0.0+] SuspendUserAccountEventService

8 [6.0.0+]
9 [8.0.0+]

NotifyAppletEvent

Takes an input u8 #AppletEventType, an u8 AppletId, an u8 StorageId, an u8 #PlayLogPolicy, an u32 event_x8, and an u64 ProgramId. Returns no output.

When #PlayLogPolicy is 2 ("None") this will immediately return 0.

Logs a new #PlayEvent with the following data:

After the initial logging, additional code runs with some of the above input params.

NotifyOperationModeChangeEvent

Takes an input u8 inval, no output.

Logs a new #PlayEvent with the following data: clears the 0x20-bytes at +0x0, u8 +0x1C = 0x3, u8 +0x0 = inval, and sets the 3 timestamps.

NotifyPowerStateChangeEvent

Takes an input u8 inval, no output.

Logs a new #PlayEvent with the following data: clears the 0x20-bytes at +0x0, u8 +0x1C = 0x2, u8 +0x0 = inval, and sets the 3 timestamps.

After the initial logging, additional code runs which uses inval.

NotifyClearAllEvent

No input/output.

NotifyEventForDebug

Takes an input type-0x5 buffer containing an array of #PlayEvent, no output.

Gets the system-setting pdm!is_production, the size must be 1 and the value must be 0, otherwise an error is returned.

Each #PlayEvent entry is validated, throwing an error on failure. After an entry is successfully validated, it is written to the log.

Cmd8

Takes an input u8 #AppletEventType, an u8 LibraryAppletMode, an u8 AppletId, an u8 StorageId, an u8 #PlayLogPolicy, and an u64 ProgramId. Returns no output.

This is similar to #NotifyAppletEvent.

When #PlayLogPolicy is 2 ("None") this will immediately return 0.

Logs a new #PlayEvent with the following data:

After the initial logging, additional code runs with some of the above input params. This is handled the same as #NotifyAppletEvent, except that the value passed for event_x8 is value 0 here.

Cmd9

Takes an input u8 #AppletEventType, an u8 AppletId, an u8 StorageId, an 0x20-byte struct, an u8 bool flag, an u8 #PlayLogPolicy, an u32 event_x8, and an u64 program_id. Returns no output.

[10.0.0+] This now takes an additional input u64, new_program_id. At the very beginning a new func is now called, with params: ({constant value}, &#AppletEventType, &program_id, &new_program_id, &StorageId). Afterwards, where it would originally use program_id, it now uses new_program_id instead. The called func eventually writes the input to a buffer using msgpack, with the output from that being added to a list in state.

This is identical to #NotifyAppletEvent except for the additional struct/flag params.

After the initial logging, additional code runs with some of the above input params. This is handled the same as #NotifyAppletEvent, except that when the u8 bool flag is set the input struct is used with this.

[10.0.0+] New code at the very end of this func was added. When AppletId is 0x1, or 0x1F-0x20, the following runs:

  • If #AppletEventType is 1, 5, or 6, func1 is called with param &program_id. This runs msgpack code similar to the above, then does {other things}.
  • Otherwise, if #AppletEventType is 0, func0 is called with param &program_id.
    • This calls the same msgpack func at the start as func1. GetApplicationLaunchProperty is used, with the output being copied to state on success, otherwise the output Result is used with other msgpack code.
  • If #AppletEventType doesn't match any of these, nothing is done.

Notes

Various services are only available depending on the output of pm:bm GetBootMode, see above.

The func which initializes pl:* services calls a func, which then uses pm:bm GetBootMode. This checks for BootMode Normal - the functionality here has no affect on whether pl:* services are available however.
