Datasheet:
Cadence DDR Controller Register Reference Manual For DDR4 Memories
Chapter 2: Detailed Register Map
If that datasheet is not public, no need to mention it here. At least a
quick web search cannot find something relevant.
Maybe it could be denoted, that is not public (and also the version),
but even mentioning non-public datasheets is useful, as they could be
made public in the future, and allows everyone to contact people with
access to these datasheets to take a look into the specific datasheet.
Kind regards,
Paul
