v0.14.1.AA

- Synced with Upstream v0.14.1 - Adds `SyncTrust` Feature * The boot `Chain of Trust` may be broken on booting with 3rd-party tools on T2/TPM chipped units * When this happens, the unit refuses to boot the selected item and may even become unresponsive * This feature provides a workaround by triggering a trusted native reboot to the selected item * This feature can be enabled by activating a new `sync_trust` configuration token - Adds `LegacySync` Feature * RefindPlus previously assumed all Macs were capable of legacy BIOS boot - This was from code that went in upstream in 2012 when this was a reasonable working assumption * However, Macs later became UEFI certified and the last Intel Macs appear to be UEFI Class 3+ * UEFI Class 3/3+ devices do not support legacy BIOS boot - This feature attempts to categorise Macs and allow/disallow legacy BIOS boot accordingly * Enabled by default but can be disabled using a new `disable_legacy_sync` configuration token - Disabling might be needed if a Mac is mis-categorised and legacy BIOS boot wrongly prevented - Adds `HelpSize` Feature * Provides option to force non-standard or otherwise unsupported screen resolutions - This can help work around issues where pre-boot configuration screen are not displayed - The issues are typically `EDID` related or the auto-selection of incorrect/incompatible resolutions - This aspect of the `HelpSize` feature requires booting into systems that fully support the graphics * An `ExDPI` category for screens with resolutions of `6400 x 4000` or more was created - UI elements are scaled up by four (4) on such screens when UI element scaling is active - UI elements on other `HiDPI` screens are still scaled up by two (2) with UI scaling active * Enabled by default but can be disabled using a new `decline_help_size` configuration token - The new token sets RefindPlus to only apply up to 2x UI element scaling - Fixes Legacy BIOS Boot on Certified UEFI Class 2 Macs * Optimisations for speed had potentially disabled legacy BIOS boot on some Macs * This bug was introduced in v0.13.3.AB (Commit 66dbed0) - Fixes Potential Memory Conflict * Some constants were passed to a function that reallocates memory * This bug was introduced in v0.14.0.AA (Commit 3fc36f5) * Extended in v0.14.0.AB (Commit 5cb1ed9) - Fixes Display Resolution Handling * User defined resolutions were not being properly handled - Only the default, `max`, resolution was considered - This meant that instances with defined resolutions were not properly displayed * Separately, the selected resolution when seeking `max` was not always the actual maximum * Additionally, a `HelpSize` Feature, documented separately, was introduced - Fixes `DirectBoot` Handling * Was not functional - Fixes `HelpScan` Handling * Rationalises implementation - Could be applied, when disabled, to some items that should be excluded - Improves `SystemdVars` Handling * The `LoaderDevicePartUUID` UEFI Variable is written to vRAM and not nvRAM * See: https://sf.net/p/refind/discussion/general/thread/d8dad2c475/ - Improves `GraphicsFor` Handling * Users can now set `none` under the `use_graphics_for` token to disable graphics mode boot * Users can now set `everything` to activate this for all boots - The previous option of setting `use_graphics_for` alone has also been fixed and remains - Improves `HiddenTags` Handling * Shows volumes names along with GUID where only the GUID would have previously been shown - Allows human friendly instance identification when viewing the `Restore Entries` screen * Breaks backward compatibility with upstream when tags are hidden in RefindPlus - Tags hidden upstream remain forward compatible with RefindPlus * Fixes situation where some loaders in ESP locations were not hidden when selected on-screen (minus key) - Was also the case when full paths were used in `dont_scan_files` - Improves License Presentation * Rationalises presentation to make clear it is on GPLv3/Later - Improves `MemTest` Handling * Updated exclusion from loaders (Row 1 Items) * Updated to handle `memtest+{ARCH}.efi` and `memtest86+{ARCH}.efi` files as per upstream - Improves `ProtectNvram` Handling * Now also blocks the `CurrentPolicy` and `CurrentActivePolicy` variables - Improves `SyncNVram` Handling * Now also clears the `opencore-version` variable, if present, when booting into macOS directly - This variable is effectively an `OpenCore Present` flag that is checked by the macOS kernel - This variable removal only applies when RefindPlus is *NOT* chain-loaded via OpenCore - This variable removal also applies to macOS installers * Separately, the implementation of the base feature was not functional on macOS boots and was fixed - Improves `HelpIcon` Handling * The following `OS Icons` are now cached on first load and reused as required afterwards when this feature is active - List is "os_mac", "os_win", "os_win8", "os_linux", "os_legacy", "os_clover", "os_opencore", "os_unknown", and "dummy image" - List is stored in `TableBuiltinIconOS` * Supplements the existing caching of items covered by `BuiltinIconTable` - The `BuiltinIconTable` item caching always happens with or without the `HelpIcon` feature - Improves `CleanNvram` Handling * Now clears `CurrentPolicy` and `CurrentActivePolicy` variables on Apple firmware - Improves `Misc` Handling * Restructured config file into four (4) sections * Completed LodePNG 20230410 update started in v0.14.0.AC * Renames the `cd` item under the `scanfor` config token as `cdbios` - Provides clarity that this is a `BIOS` scan option - Maintains compatibility with existing settings including upstream * The `TimeoutSeconds` item in `REFIT_MENU_SCREEN` was changed to `INTN` - Follow on from fix to `Timeout` item in `REFIT_CONFIG` previously changed to `INTN` - The original fix for `SilentBoot/DirectBoot` was incomplete (Commit 78d6138 in v0.13.2.AH) * Applied misc micro optimisation for speed - Restructured search pattern for config tokens - Optimised `LoadDrivers` function * Misc fixes for running in `TextOnly` mode * Adjusted `AppleFramebuffer` handling to eliminate unneeded cycles - Renames Misc Configuration Tokens * `disable_amfi` to `disable_check_amfi` * `disable_compat_check` to `disable_check_compat`
