TABLE 3-3Transmit and Receive Parameters

Parameter

Description

 

 

xcvr_inits

Number of physical layer re-initializations incremented every time

 

you change link parameters using ndd.

rev_id

Revision ID of the ipge device, useful for recognition of device

 

being used in the field.

xcvr_addr

GMII/MII physical layer device address for management interface.

xcvr_id

GMII/MII physical layer device Identification Decimal copy of MII

 

registers 2 and 3.

lb_mode

Copy of the Loopback mode the device is in, if any.

qos_mode

When zero, the TX queues operate in a simple round robin

 

queueing scheme, based on TCP/UDP destination port number.

 

When set, the TX queues operate in a scheme designed to provide

 

VLAN priorities.

tx_starts

Number of times that the driver attempted to transmit a packet.

tx_dma_bind_fail Number of times a page table entry was not available for enabling the driver to map the kernel memory to device-accessible memory

 

for transmission.

tx_queue0

Number of packets queued for transmission on the first hardware

 

transmit queue.

tx_queue1

Number of packets queued for transmission on the second

 

hardware transmit queue.
