14.10.9 Transmit Data FIFO Tail Register - TDFT
(03418h; R/WS)
This register stores the head of the on–chip transmit data FIFO. Since the internal FIFO is organized in
units of 64-bit words, this field contains the 64-bit offset of the current Transmit FIFO Tail. A value of 8h
in this register corresponds to an offset of 8 Qwords into the Transmit FIFO space. This register is
available for diagnostic purposes only, and should not be written during normal operation.
14.10.10 Transmit Data FIFO Head Saved Register -
TDFHS (03420h; R/WS)
This register stores a copy of the Transmit Data FIFO Head register in case that internal register needs
to be restored. This register points to the header of the last packet in the packet buffer, even if it was
already transmitted. This register is available for diagnostic purposes only, and should not be written
during normal operation.
14.10.11 Transmit Data FIFO Tail Saved Register - TDFTS
(03428h; R/WS)
This register stores a copy of the Transmit Data FIFO Tail register in case the internal register needs to
be restored. This register points to the tail of the last packet in the packet buffer, even if it was already
transmitted. This register is available for diagnostic purposes only, and should not be written during
normal operation.
FIFO Head 12:0 0b Transmit FIFO Head pointer. Note that the initial value equals PBA.RXA times 128.
Reserved 30:13 10000h Reads as 0b. Should be written to 0b for future compatibility.
Tx Memory Full 31 0b Tx FIFO memory full indication.
