Enhanced Three-Speed Ethernet Controllers
14.6.8.2
Data is presented to the eTSEC for transmission by arranging it in memory buffers referenced by the
TxBDs. In the TxBD the user initializes the R, PAD, W, I, L, TC, PRE, HFE, CF, and TOE bits and the
length (in bytes) in the first word, and the buffer pointer in the second word. Unused fields or fields written
by the eTSEC must be initialized to zero. For transmission over the FIFO interface the Ethernet specific
bits (PRE, DEF, HFE, LC, CF, RL and RC) have no meaning.
The eTSEC clears the R bit in the first word of the BD after it finishes using the data buffer. The transfer
status bits are then updated. Additional transmit frame status can be found in statistic counters in the MIB
block.
Software must expect eTSEC to prefetch multiple TxBDs, and for TCP/IP checksumming an entire frame
must be read from memory before a checksum can be computed. Accordingly, the R bit of the first TxBD
in a frame must not be set until at least one entire frame can be fetched from this TxBD onwards. If eTSEC
prefetches TxBDs and fails to reach a last TxBD (with bit L set), it halts further transmission from the
current TxBD ring and report an underrun error as IEVENT[XFUN]; this indicates that an incomplete
frame was fetched, but remained unprocessed. The relevant TBPTR register points to the next unread
TxBD following the error.
