CNTR_RX_CONFIG

Bits[2:0]: Configuration of RX statistics counters:
  • Bit[2]: Shadow request (active high): When set to the value of 1, RX statistics collection is paused. The underlying counters continue to operate, but the readable values reflect a snapshot at the time the pause flag was activated. Write a 0 to release.
  • Bit[1]: Parity-error clear. When software sets this bit, the IP core clears the parity bit CNTR_RX_STATUS[0]. This bit (CNTR_RX_CONFIG[1]) is self-clearing.
  • Bit[0]: Software can set this bit to the value of 1 to reset all of the RX statistics registers at the same time. This bit is self-clearing.
Bits[31:3] are Reserved. 		RW
0x946 CNTR_RX_STATUS
  • Bit[1]: Indicates that the RX statistics registers are paused (while CNTR_RX_CONFIG[2] is asserted).
  • Bit[0]: Indicates the presence of at least one parity error in the RX statistics counters.
Bits [31:2] are Reserved. 		RO

If VLAN detection is turned off for the RX MAC (bit [1] of the RXMAC_CONTROL register at offset 0x50A has the value of 1), the IP core counts the VLAN header bytes (4 bytes for VLAN and 8 bytes for stacked VLAN) as payload bytes. This register is compliant with the requirements for aOctetsReceivedOK in section 5.2.2.1.14 of the IEEE Standard 802.3-2008. RO

0x962 RxFrameOctetsOK_LO Number of received bytes in frames with no FCS, undersized, oversized, or payload length errors.
