These counts are used to generate flow control (half-duplex backpressure or full-duplex pause frames) and to limit the amount of buffer space that can be used by any individual receiver (hard drop limit). The flow control and drop limit thresholds are dynamic and adapt based on the current buffer usage. Based on the number of active receiving ports, the drop level and flow control pause and resume thresholds adjust between fixed settings and two user programmable levels via the Buffer Manager Drop Level Register (BM_DROP_LVL), Buffer Manager Flow Control Pause Level Register (BM_FC_PAUSE_LVL), and Buffer Manager Flow Control Resume Level Register (BM_FC_RESUME_LVL) respectively. The BM also keeps a count of the number of buffers that are queued for multiple ports (broadcast queue). This count is compared against the Buffer Manager Broadcast Buffer Level Register (BM_BCST_LVL), and if the configured drop level is reached or exceeded, subsequent packets are dropped. 6.5.2 Random Early Discard (RED) Based on the ingress flow monitoring detailed in Section 6.4.6, "Ingress Flow Metering and Coloring," on page 73, packets are colored as Green, Yellow, or Red. Packets colored Red are always discarded if the Drop on Red bit in the Buffer Manager Configuration Register (BM_CFG) is set. If the Drop on Yellow bit in the Buffer Manager Configuration Register (BM_CFG) is set, packets colored Yellow are randomly discarded based on the moving average number of buffers used by the ingress port. The probability of a discard is programmable into the Random Discard Weight table via the Buffer Manager Random Discard Table Command Register (BM_RNDM_DSCRD_TBL_CMD), Buffer Manager Random Discard Table Write Data Register (BM_RNDM_DSCRD_TBL_WDATA), and Buffer Manager Random Discard Table Read Data Register (BM_RNDM_DSCRD_TBL_RDATA). The Random Discard Weight table contains sixteen entries, each 10-bits wide. Each entry corresponds to a range of the average number of buffers used by the ingress port. Entry 0 is for 0 to 15 buffers, entry 1 is for 16 to 31 buffers, etc. The probability for each entry us set in 1/1024’s. For example, a setting of 1 is 1-in-1024, or approximately 0.1%. A setting of all ones (1023) is 1023-in-1024, or approximately 99.9%. Refer to Section 13.3.4.10, "Buffer Manager Random Discard Table Command Register (BM_RNDM_DSCRD_TBL_CMD)," on page 366 for additional details on writing and reading the Random Discard Weight table. 6.5.3 Transmit Queues Once a packet has been completely received, it is queued for transmit. There are four queues per transmit port, one for each level of transmit priority. Each queue is virtual (if there are no packets for that port/priority, the queue is empty), and dynamic (a queue may be any length if there is enough memory space). When a packet is read from the memory and sent out to the corresponding port, the used buffers are released. 6.5.4 Transmit Priority Queue Servicing When a transmit queue is non-empty, it is serviced and the packet is read from the buffer RAM and sent to the transmit MAC. If there are multiple queues that require servicing, one of two methods may be used: fixed priority ordering, or weighted round-robin ordering. If the Fixed Priority Queue Servicing bit in the Buffer Manager Configuration Register (BM_CFG) is set, a strict order, fixed priority is selected. Transmit queue 3 has the highest priority, followed by 2, 1, and 0. If the Fixed Priority Queue Servicing bit in the Buffer Manager Configuration Register (BM_CFG) is cleared, a weighted round- robin order is followed. Assuming all four queues are non-empty, the service is weighted with a 9:4:2:1 ratio (queue 3,2,1,0). The servicing is blended to avoid burstiness (e.g. queue 3, then queue 2, then queue 3, etc.). |
