2.1.1.18. F-Tile 400G Ethernet Intel FPGA Hard IP RX Priority Flow Control Issue

Description

When using the F-Tile 400G Ethernet Intel FPGA Hard IP with Priority Flow Control (PFC) enabled, the RX MAC might incorrectly turn a priority queue from the XOFF state to the XON state when all of the following conditions are met:

  • The RX MAC receives 2 back-to-back PFC frames with no other type of Ethernet frame between them
  • The second PFC frame is sent before the quanta of the first PFC frame expires
  • The Priority Enable Vector (PEV) of the second PFC frame has some of the same classes enabled as the first PFC frame
  • The packet arrangement on the RX MAC MII interface is such that the second PFC frame’s PEV and End-of-Packet appear in the same MII clock cycle

Workaround

None.
