Introduction
14.1.2 Unsupported Features
There are 18 level interrupts from the CPGMAC module and 2 (used) level interrupts from the MDIO
module. The CPSW_3GSS includes an interrupt combiner/pacer to combine these interrupts together to
produce 4 interrupt outputs (per processing core). This device does not split processing among multiple
cores but allows servicing of the Core0 interrupts by the Cortex A8 or the PRU-ICSS.
The unsupported CPGMAC features in the device are shown in the following table.
Table 14-1. Unsupported CPGMAC Features
Feature
Reason
Multi-core split processing
Core 1 and Core 2 interrupts not connected.
GMII
Only 4 Rx/Tx data pins are pinned out for each port. The device
supports MII (on GMII interface), RGMII, and RMII interfaces
only
Phy link status
The MLINK inputs are not pinned out. Phy link status outputs
can be connected to device GPIOs.
Internal Delay mode for RGMII
RGMII Internal Delay mode is not supported.
RMII reference clock output mode
RMII reference clock does not satisfy input requirements of RMII
Ethernet PHYs.
Reset isolation
Silicon bug. For more information, see AM335x ARM Cortex-A8
