Refactors the core guest memory access subsystem (guest.h) to be safer and portable accross host systems with different endianness. The previous implementation used direct pointer casting, which is not endian safe. 1. All read and write functions have been converted from unsafe pointer casts to memcpy(). This resolves alignment warning -Wcast-align. 2. The access functions no longer rely on asserts for error checking. They now perform explicit boundary and alignment checking and returns a guest_mem_access_result_t status code. 3. A new header (endian.h) provides cross platform byte swapping macros. The memory access functions use these macros to ensure that the guest always sees memory in the correct endian format, regardless of the host's native byte order. The host endianness is now automatically detected via CMake. 3. Asserts are now explicitly enabled in release builds to catch critical errors. Signed-off-by: Ronald Caesar <github43132@proton.me> |

Pound
“i think of getting pounded when i see that [name]” – Satisfied Customer
Note
Do you think the name "Pound" makes this a scam?
Do you think since the switch 2 hasn't been hacked this project is automatically a scam?
Do you think this project can't use switch 1 firmware dumps to set the foundation for when the switch 2 gets hacked?
Do you think the commits pushed to the main and arm64 branch are a scam?
Do you think the development progress posted on our discord are a scam?
If so then simply close this browser tab and move on.
if you have knowlege in Arm64 architecture please come to our server and help out. We have limited resources/time at the moment, if you want to contribute you are free to do so.
Overview
Join the Pound Discord Server!
Pound is an early-stage emulator for the Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, targeting Windows, Linux and macOS ( Intel and Apple Silicon).
Initial focus is on implementing the architectural similarities to the original Nintendo Switch. Later stages of development will address differences in hardware between the two console generations.
