Pause Frame Support
Receive Block
The start of an 802.3 pause frame is as follows:
Table 41-3.
The network configuration register contains a receive pause enable bit (13). If a valid pause
frame is received, the pause time register is updated with the frame’s pause time, regardless of
its current contents and regardless of the state of the configuration register bit 13. An interrupt
(12) is triggered when a pause frame is received, assuming it is enabled in the interrupt mask
register. If bit 13 is set in the network configuration register and the value of the pause time reg-
ister is non-zero, no new frame is transmitted until the pause time register has decremented to
zero.
The loading of a new pause time, and hence the pausing of transmission, only occurs when the
EMAC is configured for full-duplex operation. If the EMAC is configured for half-duplex, there is
no transmission pause, but the pause frame received interrupt is still triggered.
A valid pause frame is defined as having a destination address that matches either the address
stored in specific address register 1 or matches 0x0180C2000001 and has the MAC control
frame type ID of 0x8808 and the pause opcode of 0x0001. Pause frames that have FCS or other
errors are treated as invalid and are discarded. Valid pause frames received increment the
Pause Frame Received statistic register.
The pause time register decrements every 512 bit times (i.e., 128 rx_clks in nibble mode)
once transmission has stopped. For test purposes, the register decrements every rx_clk cycle
once transmission has stopped if bit 12 (retry test) is set in the network configuration register. If
the pause enable bit (13) is not set in the network configuration register, then the decrementing
occurs regardless of whether transmission has stopped or not.
An interrupt (13) is asserted whenever the pause time register decrements to zero (assuming it
is enabled in the interrupt mask register).
The receive block checks for valid preamble, FCS, alignment and length, presents received
frames to the DMA block and stores the frames destination address for use by the address
checking block. If, during frame reception, the frame is found to be too long or rx_er is asserted,
a bad frame indication is sent to the DMA block. The DMA block then ceases sending data to
memory. At the end of frame reception, the receive block indicates to the DMA block whether the
frame is good or bad. The DMA block recovers the current receive buffer if the frame was bad.
The receive block signals the register block to increment the alignment error, the CRC (FCS)
error, the short frame, long frame, jabber error, the receive symbol error statistics and the length
field mismatch statistics.
The enable bit for jumbo frames in the network configuration register allows the EMAC to receive
jumbo frames of up to 10240 bytes in size. This operation does not form part of the IEEE802.3
specification and is disabled by default. When jumbo frames are enabled, frames received with a
frame size greater than 10240 bytes are discarded.
