Atmosphère 0.17.0

on GitHub

0.17.0 is Atmosphère's forty-second official release.

fusee-primary was last updated in: 0.17.0.

With thanks to the @switchbrew team, Atmosphère 0.17.0 is bundled with hbl 2.4.0, and hbmenu 3.4.0.

The following was changed since the last release:

• fusee was heavily rewritten in order to add support for Mariko hardware.
  • Please Note: Mariko hardware currently has no (and may not ever have any) software exploits; fusee works when loaded from bootloader context with the right keys in the security engine. No means of getting the system into this state is provided.
• An issue was fixed in the way shutdown was performed on Erista hardware.
  • This fixes an issue that caused OFW to black screen on boot after power off from atmosphere without first doing a reboot.
  • This also substantially improves power drain when the system is shut off; consoles powered off from Atmosphere should now drain battery at the same reduced rate as original firmware.
• A number of minor changes were made, including:
  • A number of inconsistencies in the build system were fixed.
    • For those building atmosphère at home, the boot sysmodule will no longer rebuild every time make is invoked.
    • This substantially improves build times during development iteration.
  • sm was updated to more accurately reflect how official code manages request deferral.
  • mesosphère was updated to more accurately reflect official kernel management of the trace buffer.
  • mesosphère was updated to improve kernel loader's logic by taking advantage of the assumption that we only boot our kernel, not Nintendo's.
• As it has been a few months with zero reported issues, mesosphère is now opt-out.
  • Users who wish to begin using or continue using mesosphere should use the standard/cool kids zip ("atmosphere-").
  • Users who wish to opt-out of mesosphere should download and extract the opt-out zip ("atmosphere-WITHOUT_MESOSPHERE-").
• Several issues were fixed, and usability and stability were improved.
