validate_pr.py inspects paths chosen by whoever opened the pull
request, and it hashed the file before deciding whether it was a
symlink. A link to /dev/zero was read until the job timed out, and a
link out of the checkout was hashed and reported as though its target
had been contributed. The shape is now settled first, and a test that
used to hang the run covers it.
The gate had no tests at all, and neither did the 3DS crypto reached
by dynamic import from validation.py: RSA PKCS#1 v1.5, AES-128-CBC and
ECDSA over GF(2^233), all written by hand. Coverage goes from 0 to 95%
on the curve, 0 to 55% on the gate, 9 to 35% on the rest. The curve
tests check against the published SEC 2 parameters rather than against
the module: the generator satisfies the curve equation and the group
order takes it to infinity.
Loading the emulator profiles is the most expensive step of every
command here, and all forty call sites used the pure-Python scanner
while libyaml sat unused in the same wheel. One shared yaml_load picks
the C loader when pyyaml ships it: the 375 profiles parse in 0.18s
instead of 1.39s, and verify --platform retroarch drops from 2.17s to
0.73s. The loader class is the same restricted one safe_load uses.
es_bios.xml was parsed straight from the network while install.py
already refused a document declaring entities; both now share one
guard. Scrapers reach it through a single path bootstrap in the
package rather than two ad-hoc ones.
Run ruff check --fix: remove unused imports (F401), fix f-strings
without placeholders (F541), remove unused variables (F841), fix
duplicate dict key (F601).
Run isort --profile black: normalize import ordering across all files.
Run ruff format: apply consistent formatting (black-compatible) to
all 58 Python files.
3 intentional E402 remain (imports after require_yaml() must execute
after yaml is available).
batch re-profiled nekop2 through pokemini. mupen64plus renamed to
mupen64plus_next. new profiles: nes, mupen64plus_next.
validation functions (_build_validation_index, check_file_validation)
consolidated in common.py — single source of truth for verify.py
and generate_pack.py. pipeline 100% consistent on all 6 platforms.
