If it's not clear, GHASH is the underlying hash algorithm for GCM and addition to the AES encryption track, but it somehow needs a key and a way to specify content and somewhere to place the result. GCM provides the framework for that hence GMAC is additional authenticated data without encrypted plaintext. Since there is no encryption in GMAC, GMAC is essentially GHASH, but with a clear way to specify the input/output parameters. There is probably an extra AES block encryption in GMAC to derive the GHASH key, and possibly an extra AES block encryption on the output, compared to raw GHASH, but I do not remember exactly.
