check_platform_folder.py, the script the site publishes, still accepted
a cut md5 by prefix. It now compares whole digests as Batocera does
(batocera-systems:1088), like verify since cut_md5_owner.
tests/__init__.py keeps a run offline, its scratch under tmp/ and its
installer cache its own, but only discover -s tests -t . imported it.
discover tests ran with RETROBIOS_OFFLINE unset, scratch on the /tmp
tmpfs and the user's real installer cache, the setting in which e2e
fixtures had written into the shared .cache/large. Every test module now
imports the package first, and a test fails on a module that does not.
test_verify_listing.py took its line with the previous commit.
_matching walked the reader's whole profile for each platform entry, 2,135 scans of MAME in one verify --all. Each profile is now indexed once per kind by name and by accepted hash. Over every registered platform, 10,524 lookups give the same answers as the scan, in 0.13 s instead of 2.42 s.
A platform entry that declares a hash is now answered by the profile entries accepting it. Batocera's scph1001.bin (md5 dc2b9bf8, v2.0) cited DuckStation's bios.cpp:36, the v2.2 line. A same-named entry is kept, marked by name, only when none accepts the hash and its own hashes do not contradict it. Categories are unchanged: verify --all prints the same report.
EntryCategories asked every core in turn: 3.8 million proofs for 7,430
entries. ProofIndex looks each key up once, and verify --all --json is
byte-identical (24 s to 17 s). generate_site and generate_readme now share
one coverage, cached in tmp/coverage-cache keyed by its inputs, so the
README step drops from 25 s to 3 s.
A system that lists the cores it runs is settled by those cores alone, so an unprofiled core of another system no longer leaves its entries open. Readers whose core runs the entry's system are named first, and cores that only share the file name are listed as such.
Two test modules still unpacked nine values from verify_pack_against_platform. The category evidence joined readers with semicolons, which the prose rule refuses on generated pages, and three comments used clause semicolons.
Each missing platform entry now carries its evidence: the profile entries that read it with their source reference, the cores of its system examined without finding a reader, or why the question stays open. verify --verbose prints it, --json carries it and the platform pages show it.
A platform list can name a game's data files or a file no core it runs opens. Verify gives each missing entry a category read from the profiles of the platform's cores: firmware, game data or unread. Only firmware gaps carry a severity and fail --strict; the others are counted on their own line, and the pack check no longer counts them as pack errors. Missing firmware stays a conformance error.
