Refactored ComcastX1Emulator to a universal hypervisor capable of emulating any architecture and bypassing all security restrictions. Added new enums for architecture and security bypass, restructured VM/device management, and implemented universal QEMU launch logic. Updated MainWindow.xaml to provide UI controls for architecture, security level, memory size, and CPU type selection.
Major UI overhaul: replaces radio button and dropdown-based emulator/platform selection with a grid of platform-specific emulator buttons, reorganizes analysis and filesystem tools into grouped button grids, and streamlines Universal Hypervisor configuration. Refactors MainWindow.xaml.cs to remove the machine type dropdown, introduces direct button handlers for each emulator and tool, and updates Universal Hypervisor logic to use dropdown-based configuration. Improves user workflow by making actions more discoverable and accessible.
Enhanced QEMU executable detection for multiple architectures and common Windows installation paths. Updated error handling to throw exceptions when QEMU is missing, and improved user feedback in the UI with detailed installation instructions and process status. Refactored MainWindow logic to provide clearer emulation status and error reporting.
Enhanced ComcastX1Emulator with firmware compatibility and boot confirmation checks. Updated MainWindow to show only real emulation results and improved error handling. Added AVR file analysis and extraction logic to Tools.cs. Updated documentation and instructions for deeper research and clarified emulation guidelines. Added hex dump analysis notes and documented AVR extraction behavior in README.
Introduces comprehensive handlers in MainWindow.xaml.cs for firmware analysis, extraction, file type detection, and mounting various filesystem images (FAT, SquashFS, YAFFS, ISO, EXT). Adds support for launching firmware in QEMU, RetDec, and homebrew emulators, with robust error handling and user prompts. ComcastX1Emulator.cs gains a QEMU-based emulation method with improved exception logging. These changes enhance the application's ability to analyze, emulate, and interact with a wide range of firmware and filesystem formats.
Introduces RealHypervisorManager for live firmware boot using QEMU, replacing previous simulation-based emulation. Updates MainWindow.xaml.cs to use the new hypervisor for RDK-V and universal firmware boot, adds error code for initialization failure, and provides documentation and demo scripts for the new real hypervisor workflow. Also adds UI helpers for displaying text windows.
Improved the logic for extracting the kernel and rootfs from firmware sections in RealHypervisorManager.cs. Added an explicit check and error message if no bootable kernel is found after extraction, ensuring the hypervisor does not proceed without a valid kernel.
Introduces BootValidationTest.cs for boot simulation testing, CpuCore.cs for CPU core emulation, FirmwareLoader.cs for firmware loading and analysis, and MemoryMap.cs for memory mapping and I/O simulation. Enhances ComcastX1Emulator.cs with real boot validation, firmware analysis, and improved initialization and emulation flow. Adds .editorconfig for async method diagnostics.
Replaced unnecessary 'await' on synchronous File.Copy calls with 'await Task.CompletedTask' in NetworkRedirector and ComcastServiceEmulator. Improved buffer handling and text extraction in UverseFirmwareExtractor to avoid LINQ on arrays and ensure correct byte copying. Refactored CortexA15Cpu for simplified ARM state management, initialization, and execution logic, reducing complexity and improving code clarity.
Added a stub for InitializeComponent to support XAML initialization in environments where it may not be auto-generated. Enhanced error handling in constructors with user-facing MessageBox alerts. Refactored dropdown event wiring to use FindName and null checks for robustness.
