     Allow sending bitstreams to ICAPE2 of Xilinx 7-Series FPGAs.
+
+    The CPU can push stream of data to the ICAPE2 by reading `sink_ready` CSR to verify that there is
+    space available in the FIFO; then write the data to `sink_data` register. Each word written to the
+    FIFO is transmitted to the ICAPE2 using the slow icap_clk (with expected bit/byte reordering).
+
+    The CPU accesses/FIFO must be fast/large enough to ensure there is no gap in the stream sent to
+    the ICAPE2.
