# QMK Breaking Changes - 2021 May 29 Changelog

## Notable Changes {#notable-changes}

### RGB Matrix support for split common ([#11055](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/11055)) {#rgb-matrix-split-common}

Split boards can now use RGB Matrix without defining a custom matrix.

### Teensy 3.6 support ([#12258](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12258)) {#teensy-3-6-support}

Added support for MK66F18 (Teensy 3.6) microcontroller.

### New command: qmk console ([#12828](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12828)) {#new-command-qmk-console}

A new `qmk console` command has been added for attaching to your keyboard's console. It operates similiarly to QMK Toolbox by allowing you to connect to one or more keyboard consoles to display debugging messages.

### Improved command: qmk config {#improve-command-qmk-config}

We've updated the `qmk config` command to show only the configuration items you have actually set. You can now display (almost) all of the available configuration options, along with their default values, using `qmk config -a`.

### LED Matrix Improvements ([#12509](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12509), [#12580](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12580), [#12588](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12588), [#12633](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12633), [#12651](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12651), [#12685](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12685)) {#led-matrix-improvements}

LED Matrix has been improved with effects, CIE1931 curves, and a task system.

## Changes Requiring User Action {#changes-requiring-user-action}

### Updated Keyboard Codebases {#updated-keyboard-codebases}

* Durgod keyboard refactor in preparation for adding additional durgod keyboards ([#11978](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/11978))
* Updated Function96 with V2 files and removed chconf.h and halconf.h ([#12613](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12613))
* [Keyboard] updated a vendor name / fixed minor keymap issues ([#12881](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12881))
* [Keyboard] Corne - Remove legacy revision support ([#12226](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12226))

The following keyboards have had their source moved within QMK:

Old Keyboard Name | New Keyboard Name
:---------------- | :----------------
crkbd/rev1/common | crkbd/rev1
function96 | function96/v1
nckiibs/flatbread60 | delikeeb/flatbread60
nckiibs/vaguettelite | delikeeb/vaguettelite
nckiibs/vanana/rev1 | delikeeb/vanana/rev1
nckiibs/vanana/rev2 | delikeeb/vanana/rev2
nckiibs/vaneela | delikeeb/vaneela
nckiibs/vaneelaex | delikeeb/vaneelaex
nckiibs/waaffle/rev3/elite_c | delikeeb/waaffle/rev3/elite_c
nckiibs/waaffle/rev3/pro_micro | delikeeb/waaffle/rev3/pro_micro

The [Function96 V2](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/0.13.0/keyboards/function96/v2) has also been added as part of these changes.

The codebase for the [Durgod K320](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/0.13.0/keyboards/durgod/k320) has been reworked in anticipation of additional Durgod keyboards gaining QMK support.

Additionally, the `crkbd/rev1/legacy` keyboard has been removed.

### Bootmagic Deprecation and Refactor ([#12172](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12172)) {#bootmagic-deprecation-and-refactor}

QMK has decided to deprecate the full Bootmagic feature and leave Bootmagic Lite as the only remaining option.

This pull request changes the behavior of `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` such that specifying `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = yes` enables Bootmagic Lite instead of full Bootmagic.

If attempts to use Bootmagic functionality result in unexpected behavior, check your `rules.mk` file and change the `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` setting to specify either `lite` or `full`.

#### Tentative Deprecation Schedule

This is the current planned roadmap for the behavior of `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE`:

- From 2021 May 29, setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = yes` will enable Bootmagic Lite instead of full Bootmagic.
- From 2021 Aug 28, `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` must be either `yes`, `lite`, or `no` – setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = full` will cause compilation to fail.
- From 2021 Nov 27, `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE` must be either `yes` or `no` – setting `BOOTMAGIC_ENABLE = lite` will cause compilation to fail.

### Removal of LAYOUT_kc ([#12160](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12160)) {#removal-of-layout-kc}

We've removed support for `LAYOUT_kc` macros, if your keymap uses one you will need to update it use a regular `LAYOUT` macro.

### Encoder callbacks are now boolean ([#12805](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12805), [#12985](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/12985)) {#encoder-callback-boolean}

To allow for keyboards to override (or not) keymap level code the `encoder_update_kb` function has been changed from `void` to `bool`. You will need to update your function definition to reflect this and ensure that you return a `true` or `false` value.

Example code before change:

```c
void encoder_update_kb(uint8_t index, bool clockwise) {
    encoder_update_user(index, clockwise);
}

void encoder_update_user(uint8_t index, bool clockwise) {
    if (index == 0) { /* First encoder */
        if (clockwise) {
            tap_code(KC_PGDN);
        } else {
            tap_code(KC_PGUP);
        }
    } else if (index == 1) { /* Second encoder */
        if (clockwise) {
            tap_code(KC_DOWN);
        } else {
            tap_code(KC_UP);
        }
    }
}
```

Example code after change:

```c
bool encoder_update_kb(uint8_t index, bool clockwise) {
    return encoder_update_user(index, clockwise);
}

bool encoder_update_user(uint8_t index, bool clockwise) {
    if (index == 0) { /* First encoder */
        if (clockwise) {
            tap_code(KC_PGDN);
        } else {
            tap_code(KC_PGUP);
        }
    } else if (index == 1) { /* Second encoder */
        if (clockwise) {
            tap_code(KC_DOWN);
        } else {
            tap_code(KC_UP);
        }
    }
    return true; 
    // If you return true, this will allow the keyboard level code to run, as well. 
    //Returning false will override the keyboard level code. Depending on how the keyboard level function is set up.
}
```
