Refs written at the new line numbers while the pin still named the old
revision left the profile describing two trees at once. The gpu cvar is
the clearest case: at the pin it sits in xenia_main.cc, at the revision
this profile now names it moved to emulator.cc beside the code that
reads it, and citing one against the other reads as a blank line.
The rest is a plugins.toml path join that stopped embedding a backslash,
and a cvar description that says DXIL validator where it said DXIL
shader compiler. 31 refs, all anchored.
The D3D12 backend used to load dxcompiler.dll and dxil.dll and refused
to start without the compiler. It now compiles shaders through Mesa and
keeps only the signer: D3D12 rejects an unsigned shader, so
PipelineCache::Initialize stops on IsSignerAvailable() and asks for a
recent dxil.dll. dxcompiler appears nowhere in the tree any more, and
the installer extracts that one entry from the same pinned archive.
The profile still declared dxcompiler.dll required, so it sent people
after a file the emulator stopped reading. The gpu cvar moved to
emulator.cc beside the code that reads it.
flash.html, swfobject.js and manifest.json ship in the release and exist
in no revision of the source tree: the profile marks them bundled. Cited
behind the repository's own name, the resolver stripped that name and
looked for them in the tree, where they have never been. Cited behind
ArcadeFlashWeb-release they read as what they are, an artefact no
declared revision can confirm or deny. 21 refs, none left to read.
Refs were written with the repository's own name in front, so each read
as a rename to the path without it. The six changed blocks are a source
file added to the build list, XbdmModule loaded behind a console_type
check for an anti-cheat, a devkit XEX1 key compiled in beside the retail
one, a reworded log line, wider Unicode ranges for the glyph set, and a
Windows branch that picks up an already-loaded renderdoc.dll. None of
them changes a file the user supplies. 36 refs, all anchored.
emu-ex-plus-alpha carries fourteen subprojects and each holds its own
src/main/Main.cc, options.cc, EmuMenuViews.cc and system.ccm. Written
without PCE.emu/ in front, those six refs matched fourteen paths and the
directories the profile already cites could not narrow them, so each
reported absent at its own pinned revision. Every other profile in the
family already wrote the prefix. 16 refs, all anchored.
Four Switch profiles were unverifiable and said so on stderr every pass.
yuzu and suyu answer 451, citron's host stopped resolving, and
git.eden-emu.dev returns 403 to anything that is not a browser. Each
aborted its own report, so nothing could be said about any of them, and
the noise repeated on every run over the whole corpus.
A withdrawn forge is now a fact rather than a failure. GoneError covers
451, 410 and a host that does not resolve; none is retried, since three
attempts with backoff end in the same place. Those profiles land in
their own summary bucket, out of the review backlog where nobody could
act on them anyway. A 403 stays what it was, a refusal, because small
Forgejo instances behind anti-bot filters issue it routinely.
A profile can now name a source_mirror, consulted after source and
upstream so a live primary always decides attribution. Reaching it took
two more changes: a repository that refuses is muted for the rest of the
pass instead of ending it, keyed by host as well as slug because a
mirror carries the same slug on another forge; and a refused miss is not
cached, or the mute would answer for the mirror that was about to be
asked.
eden now reads from its Codeberg copy, which holds the same head and the
pinned commit: 5 refs, all anchored, where the profile could not be
checked at all. yuzu, suyu and citron have no mirror that serves
content, and now say so once instead of failing loudly.
VPX moved file location into one class. FileLocator holds the read-only
application path and the preferences path, and picks between two layout
modes from where the application ini sits: AppPrefData splits static
data, settings and tables across three roots, AppOnly keeps everything
in the application folder. The profile still described m_szMyPath and
m_szMyPrefPath, identifiers the tree no longer carries.
Script lookup changed shape with it. SearchScript walks ten locations
case-insensitively, rooted on the table's own folder rather than the
working directory, where the profile documented seven. The editor's
completion parser left that search entirely: ParseVPCore opens core.vbs
at the Scripts subfolder alone and warns when it is absent.
The PinMAME root now prefers a pinmame folder beside the table before
the global setting and the platform default. vpx.html is served by the
web server, the LiveUI no longer naming it.
Four PinMAME citations read as external again: the project word is only
recognised behind a list delimiter, and one of them sat behind "at".
41 refs, 37 anchored, 4 external, none left to read.
MIN_BIOS_SIZE fell from 4 MB to 2 MB (BiosTools.cpp:16), which is what
admits the Namco System 246/256 COH-H chip dumps: those are 2 MB where a
console image is 4. The profile still declared the old floor, so it
described a gate the code had stopped applying.
Three changes travel with it. A COH-H board is region 11 rather than 8.
Its description is built from the EXTINFO serial, because Sony left the
version and date fields identical across those BIOSes, and the three
serials the code names resolve to System 256, System 246 Rack C and the
COH-H board. The ROM window is zero-filled before the read so its unused
upper half cannot retain the previous image.
The picker follows: .7d and .8g are accepted extensions, r27v1602f a
name hint. Both dumps are already in the collection, byte-identical to
the r27v1602f members of the MAME sys246 and sys256 sets, and the .7d is
the same content as 246C.bin, which Redump catalogues as Namco System
246 Rack C with the very serial the new code maps.
97 refs, all anchored, pin moved to the revision they describe.
The cited blocks moved by seven lines and their bodies changed only
where bfunction gave way to std::function: {&DSP1::read, &dsp1} is now
memfn(&DSP1::read, &dsp1). Which ROM is loaded, under what name, size
and hash, is untouched. Diff read before the recale.
LinApple 3.0.0 moved every ROM out of hand-written byte arrays into
res/roms/*.rom, which scripts/generate_roms.sh compiles into
EmbeddedRoms.cpp behind an ENABLE_ROM_* macro. The bytes survived the
move: every hash this profile recorded against the old string literals
matches the image that replaced it.
The macros are what matters. ENABLE_ROM_CLONE_BASE64A,
ENABLE_ROM_CLONE_PRAVETS and ENABLE_ROM_CLONE_TK3000E are OFF in the
default build, so Base64A, Pravets 82/8M/8C and TK-3000 //e refuse to
start: mem_initialize finds no rom_data, names the cmake flag and the
--rom option, and returns -1. Five system ROMs the user has to supply,
none of them documented until now. The collection already held them.
Also new: icon.bmp, which the SDL frontends read from disk through the
data search path, and the J-Plus system ROM the old profile did not
list. The tree behind the old refs is gone, so the notes describe the
one that replaced it: five frontends, src/core, src/apple2, and a
program_dir still declared and never assigned.
38 refs, all anchored. 9 of 9 files present.
Upstream moved under 145 profiles: 679 refs shifted and 452 followed a
renamed file, against 6,483 that still anchor where they were written.
The recale rewrites the located ranges only, keeping the annotations and
the sentences that carry them, and 106 pins advance in the same commit
because refs and source_commit name one revision or the profile
describes two at once.
Nothing here was guessed. The 183 refs that are CHANGED, GONE or
AMBIGUOUS are untouched, and the 57 profiles holding them keep their old
pin until someone reads the diff: profile_sync refuses to recale a
profile while any of its refs needs a re-read. trident kept its pin too,
its annotated ref being one the writer will not rewrite.
Each name is attested by a buildbot .info file, a hardware target core
list or an ES-DE find rule. Two of them resolved to no profile at all:
dosbox_staging, declared by Batocera on three targets, and
freeintvtsoverlay, shipped as FreeIntvTSOverlay_libretro.info.
vba_m keeps no cores list: no upstream calls it that. It is a legacy key
folded into vbam, which already carries the buildbot name vba-m.
Re-read at 87b176a: refs anchored from the repo root, locale bundle
loader, spa.bin resolution in the content manager, iOS patch export and
embedded.mobileprovision.
Five cartridge hashes matched no file the collection holds. A .ctg is
not a dump: convert-ctg builds it from the .dat descriptor in the
repository and the pre-0.174 MAME images scripts/setup fetches, so the
question was not which dump is right but what the pinned source
produces.
Built at the pinned commit and replayed through the canonical recipe,
three of them reproduce the held file bit for bit: cf7+.ctg,
ti-pcard.ctg and Gram Kracker.ctg. The declared values reproduce
nothing, so the declarations were the error.
TI-994A.ctg and ti-disk.ctg are what Recalbox pins by md5, and v0.16.0
builds something else. Two legitimate versions: the primary stays
Recalbox's, the v0.16.0 output joins .variants/ under its hash prefix,
and the declaration points at what it describes. All five now resolve
sha1_exact.
Thirty profiles from the ES-DE batch, each source-verified by the
session that wrote it and passing the schema and semantic checks. Five
declare no files at all and say why in notes referenced to the code:
NGP.emu, openbor, Plastic, Swan.emu and XeniOS.
Twenty-eight files come with them, every one declared by the profile
that needs it and matching the hash it declares, with no duplicate of
anything already held: the NetherSX2 Turnip Classic assets, the Speccy
machine ROMs, the Virtual Boy homebrew the app bundles, Snes9x EX+'s
bundled game, and sixtyforce's Overrides.plist, which carries a size
and no hash because the binary never checks one.
supermodel gains the four data files it reads from its install tree,
hakux marks its controller map unsourceable now that the asset manager
is known to read inside the package, and nethersx2 sheds the two core
aliases that belong to the Turnip profiles.
