This region (0x10012000-0x10012100) is used as persistent storage on SoC and for passing the TWL console ID around (0x10012100-0x10012108).
== Overview ==
Console-unique keys are derived from here. Access to this region is disabled once the ARM9 writes 0x2 to [[CONFIG|REG_SYSPROT9]].
On development units ([[CONFIG|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 [[FIRM|ARM9-loader]]. It is unknown if bootrom reads from it, but it is likely.
This is the console-unique data store, including [[CTCert]] etc, that ends up in ITCM at 0x01FFB800. After decryption, the first 0x90-bytes of plaintext are copied to 0x01FFB800 if hash verification passes. Refer to [[Memory_layout#ARM9_ITCM]] for what is contained in the decrypted OTP.
On [[FIRM]] versions prior to [[3.0.0-6|3.0.0-X]], this region was left unprotected. On versions since [[3.0.0-6|3.0.0-X]], this has been fixed, and the region disable is now done by Kernel9 after doing console-unique TWL keyinit, by setting bit 1 of [[CONFIG|REG_SYSPROT9]]. 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 New 3DS key generation.
On development units ([[CONFIG|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 [[FIRM|ARM9-loader]].
Normally [[Bootloader|Boot9]] will pass plaintext_otp+0x90 to the AES keyinit function, but when hash verification fails it will pass 0x10012000(otp+0) instead.

| Console-unique data. This data 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.
| Console-unique data encrypted with AES-CBC. The normalkey and IV are stored in Boot9(retail/devunit have seperate normalkey+IV for this). The last 0x20-bytes of plaintext are a SHA256 hash over the first 0xE0-bytes of plaintext.

| This determines if the OTP is for a dev system; it indicates the [[CTCert]] issuer type: 0 = retail "Nintendo CA - G3_NintendoCTR2prod", non-zero = dev "Nintendo CA - G3_NintendoCTR2dev".

| Manufacturing date (of the SoC?). Usually month(s) before the dates in the logs stored in [[Flash_Filesystem|TWLNAND]]. Each byte is one field: year, month, day, hour, minute, second. Year is encoded as year-1900 so that it fits in one byte. This order matches up with the layout of a <code>struct tm</code>.

| Used by Boot9 for generating the console-unique AES [[AES_Registers|keyXs]]. However, due to a bug(?) in Boot9, only the first 0x1C-bytes here actually affect console-unique key generation. The rest of the data is used for hashing, but that output hash only gets overwritten without being used afterwards.
Note that the size passed to the Boot9 keyinit code for console-unique-buffer-size is 0x70, hence this includes the below OTP hash.
