REGISTER INTEGRITY CHECK IN CONFIGURABLE DEVICES

Embodiments herein describe integrity check techniques that are efficient and flexible by using local registers in a segment to store check values which can be used to detect errors in the local configuration data in the same segment. In addition to containing local registers storing the check values, each segment can include a mask register indicated which of the configuration registers should be checked and which can be ignored. Further, the segments can include a next segment register indicating the next segment the check engine should evaluate for errors.
