GetRandomBytes
Takes a type-6 buffer and fills it with random data. Same command for "spl:" and "csrng" services.
spl:
This is "nn::spl::detail::IGeneralInterface".
[2.0.0+] Where previously only one AES engine was utilized, there is now support for 4 of them.
[2.0.0+] When the session closes, all AES engines that were locked are automatically unlocked.

PCV configures memory profiles based on id2.
| Platform | Version @ 40800 | Revision | id2 |

Hardware Types
nx-abcb is the SDEV unit. Among other differences, this has extra hardware to support HDMI output.
nx-abca2 hardware types are variations of the retail form factor.
Notes
SPL uses id3 for setting up the security engine IRQ.
NIM checks that id8 output must match the set:cal DeviceId with byte7 cleared, otherwise panic.
[3.0.0+] RO checks id11, if set then skipping NRR rsa signatures is allowed.
Kernel uses id11 to determine behavior of svcBreak positive arguments. It will break instead of just force-exiting the process which is what happens on retail. [2.0.0+] This is also used with certain debug SVCs.
Kernel reads id12 when setting up memory-related code. If bit0 is set, it will memset various allocated memory-regions with 0x58, 0x59, 0x5A ('X', 'Y', 'Z') instead of zero. This allows Nintendo devs to find uninitialized memory bugs. If bit17-16 is 0b01, the kernel assumes 6GB of DRAM instead of 4GB.
UserExpMod
Takes one type-10 (C descriptor) buffer (data_out_buf) and 3 type-9 (X descriptor) buffers (data_in_buf, exp_in_buf and mod_in_buf).

Returns a scrambled sealed KEK (Key Encryption Key used as key_x).
LoadAesKey
Takes a u32 (keyslot) and two 16-byte keys (key_x and key_y).
Sets the specified keyslot with a key generated from key_x and key_y.
[2.0.0+] Now verifies that the engine in use (0..3) is locked/owned by the current spl session, otherwise errors with 0xD21A. Previously engine was hardcoded to 0.
GenerateAesKey
Takes a 16-byte KEK (key_x) and a 16-byte encrypted key (enc_key).
Generates a new key by decrypting enc_key with a key generated from the supplied key_x and a fixed key_y.
[2.0.0+] Previously, it always used engine 0. Now it tries to allocate an engine to be used and returns 0xD01A if they're all busy. When the command is done, the engine is released.
SetConfig
Takes a u32 (ConfigItem) and a u64 (ConfigVal).
| ConfigItem | Name |
|---|---|
| 13 | BatteryProfile |
Any other ConfigItem, besides 13, can't be set.
LoadRsaOaepKey
Takes one type-9 (X descriptor) buffer (enc_privk_in_buf), a 16-byte KEK (key_x), a 16-byte key (key_y) and a u32 (version). version is 0 for normal keys or 1 for extended keys.
Decrypts enc_privk_in_buf with a key generated from key_x and key_y and imports it for later usage.
UnwrapRsaOaepWrappedTitleKey
Takes one type-10 (C descriptor) buffer (data_out_buf) and 3 type-9 (X descriptor) buffers (data_in_buf, mod_in_buf and label_hash_in_buf).
Decrypts data_in_buf into data_out_buf using the private key imported with #UnwrapRsaOaepWrappedTitleKey and the supplied mod_in_buf. Afterwards, verifies RSA-OAEP encoding using label_hash_in_buf.
Returns an u32 (dec_data_size).
IsDevelopment

LoadSecureExpModKey
Takes one type-9 (X descriptor) buffer (enc_privk_in_buf), a 16-byte KEK (key_x), a 16-byte key (key_y) and a u32 (version). version is 0 for normal keys or 1 for extended keys.
Decrypts enc_privk_in_buf with a key generated from key_x and key_y and imports it for later usage.

LockAesEngine
Returns the id of the engine that was locked, or 0xD01A if all engines are busy. You need to lock an engine before using AES functions.
UnlockAesEngine
Takes a single u32 and unlocks the engine with that id. It must be owned by current session otherwise 0xD21A will be returned.
GetSplWaitEvent
Returns an event handle for synchronizing with the locked AES engine.
Sets a static dword in spl .bss to the user input u32.
[4.0.0+] returns 0xD41A if a value has been previously set without being gotten.
Returns the static dword in spl .bss that can be set via #SetSharedData.
[4.0.0+] returns 0xD61A if a value has not previously been set, and unsets the value after getting it.
