The NS system module is the first module launched from a CTR-NAND title after the FIRM processes are loaded. This module is launched by the pm process, with the titleID loaded from NSTID. NS first launches ErrDisp, then the menu. On retail the menu TID is loaded from MENUTID, while on dev/debug the menu TID is loaded from config. On dev-units if the menu TID block doesn't exist in config, NS will attempt to launch the alternate menu instead. The TID of the launched menu is then written to ACTIVEMENUTID. NS uses pm:app to launch titles.
Like home menu NS is constantly running while the system is in 3DS-mode.
When launching the regular menu fails, NS will then attempt to launch the alternate menu. This title could be used as a recovery process, however it's normally not used after the factory. This title is used at the factory for installing system titles, this title seems to be installed from a factory gamecard. This installer title likely deletes itself from NAND once it's finished installing titles.
NS Workaround
A "ns_workaround" was added in NS to workaround the flaw added with 5.0.0-11. When NS is loading before launching any ARM11 processes and certain Configuration Memory fields are set, NS will launch AM then use command AM:InstallNATIVEFIRM. NS will then use command PMApp:SetFIRMLaunchParams, then "ptm:sysm" service command 0x04090080.
NS will only execute this code-path when 0x1FF80016 is value zero, when KERNEL_VERSIONMAJOR is value 2, and when KERNEL_VERSIONMINOR is less than 35. Therefore, this code-path is only executed when the running NATIVE_FIFM version is prior to 5.0.0-11.

These "APT:U" and "APT:S" applet services can handle launching "applets", these services handle signaling for home/power button as well. Only one session for either APT service can be open at a time, normally processes close the service handle immediately once finished using the service.
