Bit 15
ES:
Error summary
Indicates the logical OR of the following bits:
RDES0[1]: CRC error
RDES0[3]: Receive error
RDES0[4]: Watchdog timeout
RDES0[6]: Late collision
RDES0[7]: Giant frame (This is not applicable when RDES0[7] indicates an IPV4 header
checksum error.)
RDES0[11]: Overflow error
RDES0[14]: Descriptor error.
This field is valid only when the last descriptor (RDES0[8]) is set.
Bit 14
DE:
Descriptor error
When set, this bit indicates a frame truncation caused by a frame that does not fit within the current
descriptor buffers, and that the DMA does not own the next descriptor. The frame is truncated.
This field is valid only when the last descriptor (RDES0[8]) is set.
Bit 13
SAF:
Source address filter fail
When set, this bit indicates that the SA field of frame failed the SA filter in the MAC Core.
Bit 12
LE:
Length error
When set, this bit indicates that the actual length of the received frame does not match the value in
the Length/ Type field. This bit is valid only when the Frame type (RDES0[5]) bit is reset.
Bit 11
OE:
Overflow error
When set, this bit indicates that the received frame was damaged due to buffer overflow.
Bit 10
VLAN:
VLAN tag
When set, this bit indicates that the frame pointed to by this descriptor is a VLAN frame tagged
by the MAC core.
Bit 9
FS:
First descriptor
When set, this bit indicates that this descriptor contains the first buffer of the frame. If the size of the
first buffer is 0, the second buffer contains the beginning of the frame. If the size of the second buffer
is also 0, the next descriptor contains the beginning of the frame.
Bit 8
LS:
Last descriptor
When set, this bit indicates that the buffers pointed to by this descriptor are the last buffers of
the frame.
Bit 7
IPHCE/TSV:
IPv header checksum error / time stamp valid
If IPHCE is set, it indicates an error in the IPv4 or IPv6 header. This error can be due to inconsistent
Ethernet Type field and IP header Version field values, a header checksum mismatch in IPv4, or an
Ethernet frame lacking the expected number of IP header bytes. This bit can take on special
meaning as specified in
If enhanced descriptor format is enabled (EDFE=1, bit 7 of ETH_DMABMR), this bit takes on
the TSV function (otherwise it is IPHCE). When TSV is set, it indicates that a snapshot of the
timestamp is written in descriptor words 6 (RDES6) and 7 (RDES7). TSV is valid only when
the Last descriptor bit (RDES0[8]) is set.
Bit 6
LCO:
Late collision
When set, this bit indicates that a late collision has occurred while receiving the frame in Half-
duplex mode.
