Description
Turn off all frame cracking functionality in both
the read DMA engine and the MAC receive
engine. On receive, the TCP/UDP checksum
field is replaced by raw checksum for the whole
frame except the Ethernet header.
On transmit, IP and TCP/UDP checksum
generation is always disabled when this bit is set.
Also, the raw checksum is calculated over the
entire frame except the Ethernet header and
CRC.
When this bit is written 1, the chip enters IOV-
MODE.
When this bit is written 0, the chip operates in
legacy mode.
This bit must only be configured during boot-up
and must not be changed afterwards.
Defined by Legacy
This bit must be 1 for proper B2HRX operation in
case of Little-Endian Host machines.

PCIE bus.
Byte swap data when DMAing it across the PCIE
bus.
When this bit is set, it means PCIE is in FLR state
for this MAC core.
