Ethernet (ETH): media access control (MAC) with DMA controller
RM0008
The checksum is calculated for the TCP, UDP, or ICMP payload and inserted into its
corresponding field in the header. It can work in the following two modes:
– In the first mode, the TCP, UDP, or ICMPv6 pseudo-header is not included in the
checksum calculation and is assumed to be present in the input frame’s checksum
field. The checksum field is included in the checksum calculation, and then
replaced by the final calculated checksum.
– In the second mode, the checksum field is ignored, the TCP, UDP, or ICMPv6
pseudo-header data are included into the checksum calculation, and the
checksum field is overwritten with the final calculated value.
Note that: for ICMP-over-IPv4 packets, the checksum field in the ICMP packet must
always be 0x0000 in both modes, because pseudo-headers are not defined for such
packets. If it does not equal 0x0000, an incorrect checksum may be inserted into the
packet.
The result of this operation is indicated by the payload checksum error status bit in the
Transmit Status vector (bit 12). The payload checksum error status bit is set when
either of the following is detected:
– the frame has been forwarded to the MAC Transmitter in Store-and-forward mode
without the end of frame being written to the FIFO
– the packet ends before the number of bytes indicated by the payload length field in
the IP header is received.
When the packet is longer than the indicated payload length, the bytes are ignored as
stuff bytes, and no error is reported. When the first type of error is detected, the TCP,
UDP or ICMP header is not modified. For the second error type, still, the calculated
checksum is inserted into the corresponding header field.
MII/RMII transmit bit order
Each nibble from the MII is transmitted on the RMII a dibit at a time with the order of dibit
transmission shown in Figure 296. Lower order bits (D1 and D0) are transmitted first
followed by higher order bits (D2 and D3).
