boss:P also contains all of the commands from boss:U.

When Home Menu loads the SpotPass CBMD with Extended_Banner, it uses bossP command 0x040D0182 first. Then it uses GetNsDataHeaderInfoPrivileged, then ReadNsDataPrivileged for loading the actual banner data.

BOSS Service "boss:M"

Content Data Storage

SpotPass content for each application is stored under the extdata specified by BOSS:SetStorageInfo. That command and others verify that the PID associated with the current service session has access to the specified extdata by using FS:CheckAuthorityToAccessExtSaveData, returning an error on failure. This basically renders SpotPass unusable under user-processes(when initialized under those processes) which don't have access to any SD extdata(unless NAND extdata is used instead).

Custom SpotPass content

All data downloaded with SpotPass must use the signed+encrypted BOSS container. There doesn't seem to be any way to write to the SpotPass data stored in extdata via service commands either.

Therefore, the only known ways to use custom SpotPass content(homebrew usage etc) is: "CFW" / ARM11-kernelhax with the sigchecks for this patched, or some sort of BOSS-sysmodule exploit if there's any vulns to begin with.

BOSS Tasks

The TaskID is a 8-byte buffer containing a string including NUL-terminator(taskIDs are compared with: strncmp(str0, str1, 7)).

When disabling SpotPass, applications use BOSSU:CancelTask then BOSSU:UnregisterTask, to delete each task.

NsDataId

This is an u32 ID for SpotPass content, used with the NsData service commands etc.

NsDataHeaderInfo

When the input type is not one of the below or when the specified output size doesn't match the expected size for this type, an error is returned.

Type0

Total size is 0x8-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x8 programID

Type1

Total size is 0x4-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 ?

Type2

Total size is 0x4-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 ?

Type3

Total size is 0x4-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 Content size

Type4

Total size is 0x4-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 ?

Type5

Total size is 0x4-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 ?

Type6

Total size is 0x20-bytes.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x8 programID. Same data as Type0.
0x8 0x4 Same data as Type1.
0xC 0x4 ?
0x10 0x4 Same data as Type3.
0x14 0xC ?

PropertyIDs

ID Size Description
0x0 0x1 Unknown. Usually 0x7D?
0x1 0x1 Unknown. Usually 0x1?
0x2 0x4 Unknown. Usually 0x0?
0x3 0x4 Interval in seconds.
0x4 0x4 Duration, ~1 = infinite. 0x1 can be used for running the task just once.
0x5 0x1 Unknown. Usually 0x2?
0x7 0x200 URL
0xC BOSSU:SendPropertyHandle is used for this. This property is only setup for HTTP uploads?
0xD 0x360 Contains additional HTTP headers to send in the request, otherwise this is all-zero. This is an array of 3 entries: +0x0 size 0x20 is the header name, and +0x20 size 0x100 is the header value. Example: header-name "Content-Type" at 0x0, with header-value "application/octet-stream" at offset 0x20.
0x35 0x2 u16 total_tasks. BOSSU:GetTaskIdList is used before reading this.
0x36 0x400 List of TaskIDs. BOSSU:GetTaskIdList is used before reading this.
