HASH start register (HASH_STR)

Address offset: 0x08
Reset value: 0x0000 0000
The HASH_STR register has two functions:
●
It is used to define the number of valid bits in the last word of the message entered in
the hash processor (that is the number of valid least significant bits in the last data
written into the HASH_DIN register)
●
It is used to start the processing of the last block in the message by writing the DCAL
bit to 1

Bits 31:9 Reserved, forced by hardware to 0.

Bit 8 DCAL: Digest calculation
Writing this bit to 1 starts the message padding, using the previously written
value of NBLW, and starts the calculation of the final message digest with all data
words written to the IN FIFO since the INIT bit was last written to 1.
Reading this bit returns 0.
Note
Bits 7:5 Reserved, forced by hardware to 0.
Bits 4:0 NBLW: Number of valid bits in the last word of the message in the bit string
organization of hash processor
When these bits are written and DCAL is at '0', they take the value on the AHB
databus:
0x00: All 32 bits of the last data written in the bit string organization of hash
processor (after data swapping) are valid.
0x01: Only bit [31] of the last data written in the bit string organization of hash
processor (after data swapping) are valid
0x02: Only bits [31:30] of the last data written in the bit string organization of
hash processor (after data swapping) are valid
0x03: Only bits [31:29] of the last data written in the bit string organization of
hash processor (after data swapping) are valid
...
0x1F: Only bits [0] of the last data written in the bit string organization of hash
processor (after data swapping) are valid
When these bits are written and DCAL is at '1', the bitfield is not changed.
Reading them returns the last value written to NBLW.
Note: These bits must be configured before setting the DCAL bit, else they are not
taken into account. Especially, it is not possible to configure NBLW and set
DCAL at the same time.
