Receive Overrun
The types of receive overrun are:
•
FIFO start of frame overrun (FIFO_SOF)
•
FIFO middle of frame overrun (FIFO_MOF)
•
DMA start of frame overrun (DMA_SOF)
•
DMA middle of frame overrun (DMA_MOF)
The statistics counters used to track these types of receive overrun are:
•
Receive start of frame overruns register (RXSOFOVERRUNS)
•
Receive middle of frame overruns register (RXMOFOVERRUNS)
•
Receive DMA overruns register (RXDMAOVERRUNS)
Start of frame overruns happen when there are no resources available when frame reception begins. Start
of frame overruns increment the appropriate overrun statistic(s) and the frame is filtered.
Middle of frame overruns happen when there are some resources to start the frame reception, but the
resources run out during frame reception. In normal operation, a frame that overruns after starting the
frame reception is filtered and the appropriate statistic(s) are incremented; however, the RXCEFEN bit in
the receive multicast/broadcast/promiscuous channel enable register (RXMBPENABLE) affects overrun
frame treatment.
shows how the overrun condition is handled for the middle of frame overrun.

As much frame data as possible is transferred to the promiscuous channel
until overrun. The appropriate overrun statistic(s) is incremented and the
OVERRUN and NOMATCH flags are set in the SOP buffer descriptor. Note
that the RXMAXLEN number of bytes cannot be reached for an overrun to
occur (it would be truncated and be a jabber or oversize).
