Originally the above 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 ([[CONFIG|UNITINFO]]!=0) ARM9 uses the first 8-bytes from 0x10012000 for the TWL keydata. This doesn't seem to be used by NATIVE_FIRM on retail, besides New3DS key-generation in the [[FIRM|ARM9-loader]].
