Ethernet MAC (EMAC) Registers
Description
–
When the remaining entries of TXFIFO are less
than this threshold, TXFIFO_almost_empty will
be asserted. This value is used in conjunction
with Buffer Manager Mode register bit31 to
prevent EMAC TXFIFO underrun.
Specifies the number of good frames to receive
after RX MBUF Low Watermark has been
reached. After the RX MAC receives this number
of frames, it will drop subsequent incoming
frames until the MBUF High Watermark is
reached.
Default to zero (i.e., drop frames ones RX MBUF
Low Watermark is reached).
Description
