2.4. Packet Client Registers

Table 9.  Packet Client Registers for MAC Segmented Interface and MAC Avalon® ST InterfaceYou can customize the F-Tile Ethernet Intel FPGA Hard IP hardware design example by programming the packet client registers.
Note: All address offsets are specified in the byte address format.
Address Name Bit Offset Default Value Access Description
0x00 hw_pc_ctrl 0 1'b0 RW Indicates start and stop of the TX packet.
  • 0: Stop packet generator
  • 1: Start packet generator
2 1'b0 RW Indicates packet transmission mode.
  • 0: One time mode
  • 1: Continuous mode

When you switch from continuous to one time mode, you must set hw_pc_ctrl[0] to 1 to ensure the pending packet transmission is completed.

4 1'b0 RW Indicates packet client loopback.
  • 0: Packet generator data path
  • 1: Loopback client data path
6 1'b0 RW Indicates the snapshot status for all statistics counter registers.
  • 0: No snapshot
  • 1: Snapshot available
7 1'b0 RW Indicates the clear status of the snapshot registers.
  • 0: Do not clear the internal registers
  • 1: Clear the internal registers
8 1'b0 RW Indicates the EOP of TX packet and clears counters.
0xC Loopback_FIFO_status [0] 0 RW Loopback FIFO write full error
[1] 0 RW Loopback FIFO read empty error
[15"2] 14'h0000 RW Reserved. Default 0s.
0x1C Cfg_rom_pkt_gap_addr [4:0] 0 RW

Gap insertion between the packets. mac seg : min gap = 1 (to avoid multiple inframes in a cycle); max gap = 31, avst: min gap = 0; max gap = 31

[31:5] 0 RW Reserved. Default 0s.
0x04 hw_test_loop_cnt [15:0] 16'd1 RW Indicates the number of times the ROM packet data are sent.
0x08 hw_test_rom_addr [15:0] 16'd0 RW ROM packet data start address
[31:16] 16'd0 RW ROM packet data end address
0x10 Latency Reg [7:0] 8'h00 RO Latency Value in terms of o_clk_pll

0x14 cfg_rom_da_addr [31:0] 0 RW Destination address LSB 32 bits
0x18 Cfg_rom_da_adr_h [15:0] 0 RW Destination address LSB 16 bits
[16] 0 RW 16th bit = 1/10 to enable/disable DA insertion
[31:17] 0 RW Reserved. Default 0s

0x24 stat_tx_sop_cnt_msb [31:0] 32'b0 RO Upper 32-bits of the TX start-of-packet (SOP) counter

0x38 stat_rx_sop_cnt_lsb [31:0] 32'b0 RO Lower 32-bits of the RX start-of-packet (SOP) counter
0x3C stat_rx_sop_cnt_msb [31:0] 32'b0 RO Upper 32-bits of the RX start-of-packet (SOP) counter
