operation from the upper layer transmit queue
into the Data Register.
FIFO" - This command writes the number
present in the Packet Number Register into the
TX FIFO. The transmission is now enqueued.
No further CPU intervention is needed until a
transmit interrupt is generated.

Non-PCI Single-Chip Full Duplex Ethernet Controller with Magic Packet
The enqueued packet will be transferred to the
MAC block as a function of TXENA (nTCR) bit
and of the deferral process (1/2 duplex mode
only) state.
a)
b)
Upon transmit completion the first word in
memory is written with the status word. The
packet number is moved from the TX FIFO
into the TX completion FIFO. Interrupt is
generated by the TX completion FIFO being
not empty.
If a TX failure occurs on any packets, TX
INT is generated and TXENA is cleared,
transmission sequence stops. The packet
number of the failure packet is presented at
the TX FIFO PORTS Register.
