RXnFREEBUF  | 
  | Receive free buffer count. These bits contain the count of free buffers available. The  | |
  | 
  | 
  | RXFILTERTHRESH value is compared with this field to determine if low priority frames should be  | 
  | 
  | 
  | filtered. The RXnFLOWTHRESH value is compared with this field to determine if receive flow  | 
  | 
  | 
  | control should be issued against incoming packets (if enabled). This is a   | 
  | 
  | 
  | This field rolls over to zero on overflow. If hardware flow control or QOS is used, the host must  | 
  | 
  | 
  | initialize this field to the number of available buffers (one register per channel). The EMAC  | 
  | 
  | 
  | decrements (by the number of buffers in the received frame) the associated channel register for  | 
  | 
  | 
  | each received frame. The host must write this field with the number of buffers that have been freed  | 
  | 
  | 
  | due to host processing.  |
