hekate v6.3.0 changes

• HOS 20.0.0 support
• Config: Added pkg3 key support that replaces fss0 with the same exact functionality fss0 will still work for compatibility reasons but it's now deprecated. At some point fss0 will become obsolete, so make sure you update your configs to use pkg3 instead. The templates were updated to use that.
• Config: Added pkg3kip1skip key support. Only for advanced users, read README.
• Config: atmosphere key is now renamed to kernelprocid to match what it does Only advanced users that do not use fss0/pkg3 are affected by this
• Config: fss0experimental key was renamed to pkg3ex
• Fixed parsing of system_settings.ini for usb3 enable. Thanks @new-waifu for reminding that.
• Fixed an issue that could have caused black screen on stock booting in some rare cases (kernelldr related)

emuMMC Changes

• HOS 20.0.0 support As always based on https://github.com/m4xw/emuMMC

Nyx v1.7.0 changes

• HOS 20.0.0 support
• SD/eMMC Benchmark now shows 95th and 5th percentile industry standard IOPS info. It also now uses in-spec A2 test sizes. Additionally, the window was made more compact so the info underneath it is still visible for sharing screenshots. It's preferable to compare between sd cards on the same updated benchmark, because of the changes. The 95% best accesses is generally your expected performance. The 5% worst accesses shows degraded nand parts or copies from SLC/MLC to TLC/QLC nands, big cache flushes, bad controller management, fw bugs, etc.
• SD info now checks if card's A2 support is proper or not. Green: full support, Yellow: needs quirks, Red: broken.
• SD info will now immediately show SDMMC errors before calculating free space in FAT partition
• Fixed an issue where emuMMC could fail to be found for backing up or restoring
• Fixed an issue where emuMMC could fail to be backed up
• RAM real capacity detection is now more robust
• Made Nyx a bit more faster.
• Fixed an issue where reserved Android partition size could be calculated wrong on the HOS leftover slider
• Fixed an issue where a window could not be closed with B button on Joy-Con
• Nyx reload will now check if nyx.bin still exists and not reload, so user can fix that with UMS again
• Various fixes and improvements

BDK changes

• DIRLIST: It now uses alphabetical ordering instead of ASCII based
• SDMMC: Do not allow out of bound accesses since they need a power cycle to clear the error
• SDMMC: Add performance extension register parsing support
• UITLS: qsort compare functions added for int, char and char case insensitive.
• SE: Support 0 sized SHA256 hashing
• SE and DISPLAY drivers do not use heap anymore

Notes

Check readme.md for more.

NOTE: For maximum performance of UMS in Windows, you need to run nyx_usb_max_rate__run_only_once_per_windows_pc.reg, only once per PC you have. It only affects hekate's usb device. You can also view that file with text editor and see what it does. Linux/Mac OS users do not need that.

How to update:

• Drag n drop bootloader folder into sd card root and hit merge/replace. No need to delete that folder first, especially if you want your configs and payloads.
• You can choose to update your RCM injection device or PC with the new hekate_ctcaer_x.x.x.bin or not. In any case, bootloader/update.bin, will be checked and if newer it will get loaded. update.bin is hekate and it is already copied with the bootloader folder drag n drop update process.
