Console-unique keys seem to be derived from here, though it is unknown how. This is very likely the console-unique data store, including CTCert and other unit info values, that ends up in ITCM at 0x01FFB800. Bootrom would decrypt it, check for magic (0xDEADB00F), and then set CFG_UNITINFO, etc to match the specific console at hand. This is a guess based on the matching size of both sets of data (ITCM's is padded to 0x100, specifically) and the lack of another known source for this data on the system (it is not sourced from eMMC). Access to this region is disabled once the ARM9 writes 0x2 to REG_SYSPROT9.
Originally the console-unique TWL keyinit + region disable was done by Kernel9. However, with the New_3DS FIRM ARM9 binary this is now done in the FIRM ARM9 binary loader, which also uses the 0x10012000 region for key generation.
On development units (UNITINFO!=0) ARM9 uses the first 8-bytes from 0x10012000 for the TWL Console ID. This region doesn't seem to be used by NATIVE_FIRM on retail at all, besides New3DS key-generation in the ARM9-loader. It is unknown if bootrom reads from it, but it is likely.
| Offset | Size | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x0 | 0x100 | Console-unique data. This data appears appears to be random, even when multiple consoles' dumps from this area are XORed. None of the raw data here seems to match any of the console-unique keys (tested: keyX, keyY and normal-key, both big and little u32 endianness for all keyslots) for the AES engine. It's unknown whether there's any encryption on this area. |
| 0x100 | 0x8 | Before writing REG_SYSPROT9 bit1, the ARM9 copies the 8-byte TWL Console ID here. This sets the registers at 0x4004D00 for ARM7. |
