Section 21 Ethernet Controller Direct Memory Access Controller (E-DMAC)
21.2.3
E-DMAC Receive Request Register (EDRRR)
EDRRR is a 32-bit readable/writable register that issues receive directives to the E-DMAC. When
the receive request bit is set, the E-DMAC reads the relevant receive descriptor. If the receive
descriptor active bit in the descriptor has the "active" setting, the E-DMAC prepares for a receive
request from the EtherC. When one receive buffer of data has been received, the E-DMAC reads
the next descriptor and prepares to receive the next frame. If the receive descriptor active bit in the
descriptor has the "inactive" setting, the RR bit is cleared and operation of the receive DMAC is
halted.

Note:
* If the receive function is disabled during frame reception, write-back is not performed
successfully to the receive descriptor. Following pointers to read a receive descriptor
become abnormal and the E-DMAC cannot operate successfully. In this case, to make
the E-DMAC reception enabled again, execute a software reset by the SWR bit in
EDMR. To make the E-DMAC reception disabled without executing a software reset,
set the RE bit in ECMR. Next, after the E_DMAC has completed the reception and
write-back to the receive descriptor has been confirmed, disable the receive function of
this register.
