[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/5] hw/net/stellaris_enet: Correctly implement the


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/5] hw/net/stellaris_enet: Correctly implement the TR and THR registers
Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2014 17:53:06 +0100

Packet transmission for the stellaris ethernet controller can be triggered
in one of two ways:
 * by setting a threshold value in the THR register; when the FIFO
   fill level reaches the threshold, the h/w starts transmitting.
   Software has to finish filling the FIFO before the transmit
   process completes to avoid a (silent) underrun
 * by software writing to the TR register to explicitly trigger
   transmission

Since QEMU transmits packets instantaneously (from the guest's
point of view), implement "transmit based on threshold" with
our existing mechanism of "transmit as soon as we have the whole
packet", with the additional wrinkle that we don't transmit if
the packet size is below the specified threshold, and implement
"transmit by specific request" properly.
