# This function is required for loading DOLs. If it's not present, newserv can't
|
|
# serve DOL files to GameCube clients.
|
|
|
|
# This is also the file I've chosen to document how to write code for newserv's
|
|
# functions subsystem. There are three kinds of functions: includes, patches,
|
|
# and general functions.
|
|
|
|
# General functions are not version-specific (usually) but are architecture-
|
|
# specific. This file, WriteMemoryGC, is a general function for all PowerPC
|
|
# versions of PSO, which means all GameCube versions. General functions are
|
|
# named like NAME.ARCH.s, where ARCH is sh4, ppc, or x86.
|
|
|
|
# Includes are snippets of code that are intended to be used as part of other
|
|
# general functions and patches. Includes are named like NAME.ARCH.inc.s, where
|
|
# ARCH has the same meaning as above. These can be used with the .include
|
|
# directive; there is an example of this in the code below.
|
|
|
|
# Patches are functions that are available to run upon client request. They can
|
|
# be made available in the Patches menu or via the $patch command. Patches
|
|
# should be named like PATCHNAME.VERS.patch.s, where VERS denotes which
|
|
# specific game version the patch is for. These version codes are listed in
|
|
# README.md, and directly correspond to values returned by the VersionDetect
|
|
# functions, also in this directory.
|
|
|
|
# For example, to use this function to write the bytes 38 00 00 05 to the
|
|
# address 8010521C, send_function_call could be called like this:
|
|
# auto fn = s->function_code_index->name_to_function.at("WriteMemoryGC");
|
|
# unordered_map<string, uint32_t> label_writes(
|
|
# {{"dest_addr", 0x8010521C}, {"size", 4}});
|
|
# string suffix("\x38\x00\x00\x05", 4);
|
|
# send_function_call(
|
|
# c, // Client to send function call to
|
|
# fn, // The function's code
|
|
# label_writes, // Variables to pass in to the function's code
|
|
# suffix); // Data to append after the code (not all functions use this)
|
|
# The meanings of label_writes and suffix are described in the comments below.
|
|
# Note that there is no way to specify label_writes or suffix for patches
|
|
# requested by the client, so those features should only be used in general
|
|
# functions.
|
|
|
|
# These directives tell newserv what to show to the player in the Patches menu.
|
|
# Neither of them is required; if the name is omitted, the filename is used
|
|
# instead.
|
|
.meta name="Write memory"
|
|
.meta description="Writes data to any location in memory"
|
|
|
|
# The .meta index directive tells newserv what value to use in the flag field
|
|
# when sending the B2 command. This is needed if the server needs to do
|
|
# something when the B3 response is received. If specified, the index must be in
|
|
# the range 01-FF. The DOL loading functionality, which this function is a part
|
|
# of, uses indexes E0, E1, and E2, but the WriteMemoryGC function can also be
|
|
# used for other purposes.
|
|
.meta index=E1
|
|
|
|
# To hide a patch from the Patches menu (so it can only be used with the $patch
|
|
# command), this directive can be used. This has no effect if used in includes
|
|
# or general functions.

# .offsetof directive that itself points to the actual entrypoint.
|
|
entry_ptr:
|
|
# All labels starting with reloc signify that the following PPC word (big-endian
|
|
# 32-bit value) is to be relocated at runtime. That is, when the code runs on
|
|
# the client, the PPC word will contain the actual memory address relative to
|
|
# the running code instead of the offset that it holds at assembly time. The
|
|
# entry_ptr label should almost always have a reloc label next to it.
