===0x17E10000===
 +
The 32-bit register at <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x100</code> only has bit 0 set when, on New 3DS, [[PTMSYSM:ConfigureNew3DSCPU]] was used with bit 1 set for the input value (the L2 cache flag). All other bits in this register are normally all-zero. Therefore, bit 0 set = new cache hardware enabled, bit 0 clear = new cache hardware disabled. This bit is how the ARM11 kernel checks whether the additional cache hardware is enabled).
 +
 
 +
To enable the additional cache hardware, the following is used by the ARM11 kernel:
 +
* Sets bit 0 in 32-bit register <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x100</code>.
 +
 
 +
To disable the additional cache hardware, the following is used by the ARM11 kernel:
 +
* Writes value <code>0xFFFF</code> to 32-bit register <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x77C</code>.
 +
* Waits for bit 0 in 32-bit register <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x730</code> to become clear.
 +
* Writes value <code>0x0</code> to 32-bit register <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x0</code>.
 +
* Clears bit 0 in 32-bit register <code>0x17E10000</code>+<code>0x100</code>.
 +
 
 +
=== <code>0x1F000000</code> ([[New 3DS]] only) ===
 +
This area is used by [[QTM Services]] and Kernel11,starting at offset <code>0x200000</code>, size <code>0x180000</code>. This area is not accessible to the GPU on the old 3DS. The old 3DS and New 3DS GSP module has <code>vaddr-&gt;physaddr</code> conversion code for this entire region. On the New 3DS, only the first <code>0x200000</code> bytes (half of this memory) are accessible to the GPU.

The above is the MPU region settings setup by the ARM9-kernel in the crt0.
 +
 
 +
The New3DS ARM9-kernel MPU region settings are the same as the Old3DS MPU region settings for >=[[8.0.0-18|8.0.0-X]].
 +
 
 +
At the start of the Process9 function executed in kernel-mode via svc7b during firm-launching, it changes some MPU region settings. At the end of that function, before it uses the ARM9/ARM11 entrypoint fields, it disables MPU.

The first 0x10-bytes are checked by the v6.0/v7.0 NATIVE_FIRM keyinit function, when non-zero it clears this block and continues to do the key generation. Otherwise when this block was already all-zero, it immediately returns. This memclear was probably an attempt at destroying the RSA slot0 modulus, that missed (exactly 0x1000-bytes away).

The entire FCRAM is cleared during NATIVE_FIRM boot. This is done by the ARM11 kernel in order by region as it initializes after loading [[FIRM]] launch parameters from FCRAM.

== FCRAM memory-regions layout ==
 +
FCRAM is partitioned into three regions of memory (APPLICATION, SYSTEM, and BASE). Most applications can only allocate memory from one of these regions (which is encoded in the [[NCCH/Extended_Header#ARM11_Kernel_Flags|process kernel flags]]). There is a fixed set of possible size of each memory region, determined by the APPMEMTYPE value in [[Configuration_Memory#APPMEMTYPE|configuration memory]] (which in turn is set up according to the [[FIRM#FIRM_Launch_Parameters|firmware launch parameters]]).
 +
 +
Support for APPMEMTYPEs 6 and 7 (and 8?) was implemented in [[NS]] with [[8.0.0-18]]. These configurations are only supported in the [[New_3DS]] ARM11-kernel, and are in fact the only ones supported there at all. Applications only get access to the larger memory regions when this is specified in their [[NCCH/Extended Header#New3DS System Mode|extended header]].

Support for type6/7 was [[NCCH/Extended Header|implemented]] in [[NS]] with [[8.0.0-18]], these are only supported in the [[New_3DS]] ARM11-kernel not the regular 3DS kernel. These two types are the only ones supported by the New3DS kernel.
      
All memory allocated by the kernel itself for kernel use is located under BASE. Most system-modules run under the BASE memregion too.

Each [[KThread|thread]] is allocated a 0x1000-byte page in this region: the first page at 0xFF401000 is for the first created thread, 0xFF403000 for the second thread. This region is used to store the SVC-mode stack for the thread, and thread context data used for context switching. When the IRQ handler, prefetch/data abort handlers, and undefined instruction handler are entered where the SPSR-mode=user, these handlers then store LR+SPSR for the current mode on the SVC-mode stack, then these handlers switch to SVC-mode.

For NATIVE_FIRM the memory pages for this region are located in FCRAM, however for TWL_FIRM these are located in AXI WRAM. For TWL_FIRM v6704 the first thread's page for this region is located at physical address 0x1FF93000, the next one at 0x1FF92000, etc.

== IO Process virtual addressing equivalence ==

It seems an IO register's process virtual address can be calculated by adding 0xEB00000 to its physical address. However for kernel mappings there is no fixed address equivalence.
