Fedora 42 XFCE Xlibre LUKS Setup

Setting Up Fedora 42 XFCE with LUKS Encryption and XLibre in VirtualBox

Download the Fedora 42 XFCE Spin ISO from the official Fedora Spins website and create a VirtualBox VM. I recommend creating one with 8GB RAM, 4 CPUs, and at least 40GB of disk space.

Important: If you have VirtualBox Extension Pack installed, uninstall it first as it may cause driver conflicts with XLibre.

Boot from the ISO and start the installer. When you reach the Installation Destination screen, select Custom/Manual partitioning.

Choose Standard Paritioning and check "Encrypt my data".

Prove that I had blackbird :)
There is a bug in SEPROM, at least up to A10 (the one I reversed), in the trustzone bounds checks.
The trustzone is setup by the main AP in an early boot stage and because of that SEPROM has to verify that it's setup correctly before continuing to boot SEPOS.
Otherwise the AP could write to SEPOS RAM and with that it might be able to get code execution on the SEP.
The verification is done by first checking if the trustzone values are locked and then if they are correct.
Those values are stored in hardware registers that both processors share.
The registers are 32 bit tho and because of that apple decided to shift the address down by 12 bits before putting it into the registers.
This means that if you want to lock down 0x1000000 to 0x2000000 you will actually write 0x1000 and 0x2000 to the registers.
On the other side SEPROM loads these values from the hardware registers again.
But instead of just comparing them against some constant it shifts up all of those values by 12 bits again before doing any check on

NetworkManager Wi-Fi powersaving configuration

NetworkManager WiFi Power Saving

NetworkManager supports WiFi powersaving but the function is rather undocumented.

From the source code: wifi.powersave can have the following value:

  • NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_DEFAULT (0): use the default value
  • NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_IGNORE (1): don't touch existing setting
  • NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_DISABLE (2): disable powersave

YIFY's Quality Encoding

For those that want to keep the YTS going (No, IDGAF about people that don't care for YTS quality) get HandbrakeCLI https://handbrake.fr/downloads... and use the following settings:

user@user:~$HandBrakeCLI -i /file/input.mp4 -o /file/out.mp4 -E fdk_faac -B 96k -6 stereo -R 44.1 -e x264 -q 27 -x cabac=1:ref=5:analyse=0x133:me=umh:subme=9:chroma-me=1:deadzone-inter=21:deadzone-intra=11:b-adapt=2:rc-lookahead=60:vbv-maxrate=10000:vbv-bufsize=10000:qpmax=69:bframes=5:b-adapt=2:direct=auto:crf-max=51:weightp=2:merange=24:chroma-qp-offset=-1:sync-lookahead=2:psy-rd=1.00,0.15:trellis=2:min-keyint=23:partitions=all

Reason to use CLI over GTK has to do with lack of support for advanced settings for Handbrake GTK
