●

Byte-aligned addressing for data buffer support

●

Dual-buffer (ring) or linked-list (chained) descriptor chaining

●

Descriptor architecture that allows large blocks of data transfer with minimum CPU

intervention

●

Comprehensive status reporting for normal operation and transfers with errors

●

Individual programmable burst size for transmit and receive DMA engines for optimal

host bus utilization

●

Programmable interrupt options for different operational conditions

●

Complete per-frame transmit/receive interrupt control

●

Round-robin or fixed-priority arbitration between receive and transmit engines

●

Start/stop modes

●

Separate ports for host CSR access and host data interface

The GMAC audio video (AV) enables transmission of time-sensitive traffic over bridged

local area networks (LANs). The GMAC AV has the following features:

●

Compliant to IEEE 802.1-AS standard, version D6.0: specifies the protocol and

procedures used to ensure that the synchronization requirements are met for time-

sensitive applications

●

Compliant to IEEE 802.1-Qav standard, version D6.0: allows the bridges to provide

time-sensitive and loss-sensitive real-time audio video data transmission (AV traffic). It

specifies the priority regeneration and controlled bandwidth queue draining algorithms

that are used in bridges and AV traffic sources

●

Supports one additional channel (channel 1) on the transmit and receive paths for AV

traffic in 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps modes. The channel 0 is available by default and

carries the legacy best-effort Ethernet traffic on the transmit side.

●

Supports IEEE 802.1-Qav specified credit-based shaper (CBS) algorithm for the

additional transmit channels

●

Provides separate DMA, TxFIFO, and RxFIFO MTL for the additional channel (to avoid

“head of line blocking” issues); the system-side interface remains the same.

The GMAC has the following additional features for monitoring, testing, and debugging:

●

Supports internal loopback on the GMII/MII for debugging

●

Provides DMA states (Tx and Rx) as status bits

●

Provides debug status register that gives status of FSMs in transmit and receive data-

paths and FIFO fill-levels

●

Application abort status bits

●

MMC (RMON) module in the GMAC core

●

Current Tx/Rx buffer pointer as status registers

●

Current Tx/Rx descriptor pointer as status registers

●

Statistical counters that help in calculating the bandwidth served by each transmit

channel when AV support is enabled
