Cbox data register. A HW_MTPR instruction to this register causes six

 

 

 

bits of data to be placed into a serial shift register. When the

 

 

 

HW_MTPR instruction is retired, the data is shifted into the Cbox. After

 

 

 

the Cbox shift register has been accessed, performing a HW_MFPR

 

 

 

instruction to this register will return six bits of data.

W1

Writing a 1 to this register bit causes six bits of Cbox IPR data to shift into

 

 

 

the Cbox data register. Software can then use a HW_MFPR read operation

 

 

 

to the Cbox data register to read the six bits of data.

 

 

 

 

5.4.3 Cbox WRITE_ONCE Chain Description

The WRITE_ONCE chain order is contained in Table 5–24.In the table:

Many CSRs are duplicated for ease of hardware implementation. These CSRs are indicated in italics. They must be written with values that are identical to the values written to the original CSRs.
