25.6.2 ICM Hash Area

The ICM Hash Area is a contiguous area of system memory that the controller and the processor can access. The physical location is configured in the ICM hash area start address register. This address is a multiple of bytes. If the CDWBN bit of the context register is cleared (i.e., Write Back activated), the ICM controller performs a digest write operation at the following starting location: *(HASH) + (RID<<), where RID is the current region context identifier. If the CDWBN bit of the context register is set (i.e., Digest Comparison activated), the ICM controller performs a digest read operation at the same address.
