Description

This manually syncs all pending notifications that are present on the sysmodule "boss savedata". The news sysmodule queries the list of notifications with BOSS command 0x00100102 (GetNsDataIdList), then gets some NS data information for each data ID with command 0x002700C2 (GetNsDataHeaderInfo) type=5 and command 0x002D0040 (GetNsDataLastUpdate), and finally reads the notification data.

The sysmodule then extracts all the notification data from the BOSS notification and saves it to the savedata.

BOSS notification

The BOSS notification data is a modified version of a regular notification. It combines a custom header, a fully allocated message (size: 0x1780 bytes) and an optional image, all appended in a single file.
