# About
Keyset files are ASCII text files containing one key per line, in the form "__key_name = HEXADECIMALKEY__". Case and whitespace do not matter, ';' character can be used to insert comments.
# Loading keyset files automatically
If a keyset file is located in ___$HOME/.switch/___ it will be loaded automatically.
# General Keys (prod.keys and dev.keys)
Some switch files formats feature encryption and or cryptographic signatures. In order to process these file formats, some keys are required. These keys can be supplied via a keyfile: ___prod.keys___ (or ___dev.keys___ for devkit variants).
This keyset file can be provided via the command line (refer to usage for details).
## Format
The following keys are recognised (## represents a hexadecimal number between 00 and 1F):
```
; Key Sources
master_key_## : Master key, used to derive other keys. (0x10 bytes)
aes_kek_generation_source : Used to derive other aes-keks. (0x10 bytes)
aes_key_generation_source : Used to derive other aes-keys. (0x10 bytes)
package2_key_source : Used with master_key_## to derive package2_key_##. (0x10 bytes)
ticket_commonkey_source : Used with master_key_## to derive ticket_commonkey_##. (0x10 bytes)
nca_header_kek_source : Used with master_key_00, aes_kek_generation_source and aes_key_generation_source to generate nca_header_kek. (0x10 bytes)
nca_header_key_source : Used with nca_header_kek to generate nca_header_key. (0x20 bytes)
nca_body_keak_application_source : Used with master_key_##, aes_kek_generation_source and aes_key_generation_source to generate nca_body_keak_application_##. (0x10 bytes)
nca_body_keak_ocean_source : Used with master_key_##, aes_kek_generation_source and aes_key_generation_source to generate nca_body_keak_ocean_##. (0x10 bytes)
nca_body_keak_system_source : Used with master_key_##, aes_kek_generation_source and aes_key_generation_source to generate nca_body_keak_system_##. (0x10 bytes)

; XCI Keys
xci_header_key : AES128 Key (0x10 bytes)
xci_header_sign_key_modulus : RSA2048 Modulus (0x100 bytes)

; ACID Keys
acid_sign_key_##_modulus : RSA2048 Modulus (0x100 bytes)

```
## Legacy Keynames
Since firmware `9.0.0+` support for signature key generations was retroactively added for RSA-PSS signatures in NRR, ACID and NCA. The old names for these keys are still valid:
```
nca_header_sign_key_modulus : alias for nca_header_sign_key_00_modulus
2020-03-10 12:33:26 +00:00
nca_header_sign_key_private : alias for nca_header_sign_key_00_private
acid_sign_key_modulus : alias for acid_sign_key_00_modulus
acid_sign_key_private : alias for acid_sign_key_00_private
```

## Compatibility with hactool keyset files
`prod.keys` (and `dev.keys`) keyset files share the same keyset file format as [hactool](https://github.com/SciresM/hactool/blob/master/KEYS.md), but names of keys may differ. For compatibility, hactool names for equivalent keys are accepted.
```
