forced compare against “Empty” locations automatically
masks all 64 bits of data to find all locations with the validity
bits set to “Empty,” while the other forced compares are
only masked as selected in the Control register.
Automatic compares perform a compare of the contents of the
Comparand register against Memory locations that are tagged
as “Valid,” and occur whenever the following happens:
Ø The Destination Segment counter in the Segment
Control register reaches its end limit during writes to
the Comparand or mask registers.
VERTICAL CASCADING
Ø After a command write of a TCO CT is executed (except
for a software reset), so that a compare is executed
with the new settings of the Control register.
LANCAMs can be vertically cascaded to increase system
depth. Through the use of flag daisy-chaining, multiple
devices will respond as an integrated system. The flag
daisy chain allows all commands to be issued globally,
with a response only in the device containing the Highest-
Forced compares are initiated by CMP instructions
using one of the four validity conditions: V, R, S, and E. The
