Checking configuration bitstream integrity (Cyclone IV)

I believe the configuration bitstream contains checksums or similar which the target FPGA checks for errors or corruption. Are the details of this integrity checking published? I'd like to have a hos...

Greetings!

I have a similar problem, I use a host processor configuring a Cyclone II using PS configuration Scheme, and I don't use the INIT_DONE pin.

I want to use the host processor to calculate FPGA's SRAM checksum after configuration and compare with the .RBF checksum sent by PC.

So, there is my question, it's possible read Configuration SRAM data?
