gmacgrp_lpi_control_status

         <b> Register 12 (LPI Control and Status Register) </b>  

The LPI Control and Status Register controls the LPI functions and provides the LPI interrupt status. The status bits are cleared when this register is read. This register is present only when you select the Energy Efficient Ethernet feature during core configuration.

Important: The value of a reserved bit must be maintained in software. When you modify registers containing reserved bit fields, you must use a read-modify-write operation to preserve state and prevent indeterminate system behavior.

LPI TX Automate

This bit controls the behavior of the MAC when it is entering or coming out of the LPI mode on the transmit side. This bit is not functional in the GMAC-CORE configuration in which the Tx clock gating is done during the LPI mode. 
If the LPITXA and LPIEN bits are set to 1, the MAC enters the LPI mode only after all outstanding frames (in the core) and pending frames (in the application interface) have been transmitted. The MAC comes out of the LPI mode when the application sends any frame for transmission or the application issues a TX FIFO Flush command. In addition, the MAC automatically clears the LPIEN bit when it exits the LPI state. If TX FIFO Flush is set, in Bit 20 of Register 6 (Operation Mode Register), when the MAC is in the LPI mode, the MAC exits the LPI mode.

When this bit is 0, the LPIEN bit directly controls behavior of the MAC when it is entering or coming out of the LPI mode.

PHY Link Status Enable

This bit enables the link status received on the RGMII, SGMII, or SMII receive paths to be used for activating the LPI LS TIMER. 

When set, the MAC uses the link-status bits of Register 54 (SGMII/RGMII/SMII Status Register) and Bit 17 (PLS) for the LPI LS Timer trigger. When cleared, the MAC ignores the link-status bits of Register 54 and takes only the PLS bit.

This bit is RO and reserved if you have not selected the RGMII, SGMII, or SMII PHY interface.

PHY Link Status

This bit indicates the link status of the PHY. The MAC Transmitter asserts the LPI pattern only when the link status is up (okay) at least for the time indicated by the LPI LS TIMER.
When set, the link is considered to be okay (up) and when reset, the link is considered to be down.

LPI Enable

When set, this bit instructs the MAC Transmitter to enter the LPI state. When reset, this bit instructs the MAC to exit the LPI state and resume normal transmission. 

This bit is cleared when the LPITXA bit is set and the MAC exits the LPI state because of the arrival of a new packet for transmission.

Receive LPI Exit

When set, this bit indicates that the MAC Receiver has stopped receiving the LPI pattern on the GMII or MII interface, exited the LPI state, and resumed the normal reception. This bit is cleared by a read into this register.

Note: 
This bit may not get set if the MAC stops receiving the LPI pattern for a very short duration, such as, less than 3 clock cycles of CSR clock.

When set, this bit indicates that the MAC Receiver has received an LPI pattern and entered the LPI state. This bit is cleared by a read into this register.

This bit may not get set if the MAC stops receiving the LPI pattern for a very short duration, such as, less than 3 clock cycles of CSR clock.
