7.1.15. Priority Flow Control
Description: PFC Control parameters
Byte Offset: 0x4000 + 0x200 x (0 - 19)
Addressing Mode: 32 bits
Bit | Type | Reset | Description |
---|---|---|---|
31:5 | RO | 0 | Reserved |
5 | RW | 0 | 1'b0 – Normal 1'b1 – Clear RX packet statistics |
4 | RW | 0 | 1'b0 – Normal 1'b1 – Clear TX packet statistics |
3 | RW | FLOW_CONTROL_EN | cfg_flow_control_en: Enable Flow Control 1'b1 – Flow control enabled (PFC or PAUSE – determined by CFG_PFC_SEL) 1'b0 – Flow control disabled, no PFC or PAUSE generation
A switch may cause packet dropping or mixing for a brief time (Maximum of number of queue entries * 8 cycles).
|
2 | RW | 0 | cfg_pfc_sel: Select between Priority Flow control vs Standard Flow Control (Pause), valid only when CFG_FLOW_CONTROL_EN is set to 1’b1. 1’b1 – PFC is enabled. tx_pfc[7:0] is generated, rx_pfc[7:0] is consumed 1’b0 – SFC is enabled. tx_pause is generated, rx_pause is consumed A switch may cause packet dropping or mixing for a brief time (Maximum of number of queue entries * 8 cycles). |
1 | RW | 0 | Indicate PFC RX queue arbiration scheme. 1’b1 – Priority arbitration priority order (queue 7 - queue 0) 1’b0 – Round-robin arbitration |
0 | RW | 0 | Indicate PFC TX queue arbiration scheme. 1’b1 – Priority arbitration priority order (queue 7 - queue 0) 1’b0 – Round-robin arbitration |
