Description
Position In Current Buffer[15:0]—RO. These bits represent the number of DWords left to be
processed in the current buffer. Once again, this means, the number of samples not yet read from
15:0 memory (in the case of reads from memory) or not yet written to memory (in the case of writes to
memory), irrespective of the number of samples that have been transmitted/received across AC-
link.
Software can read the registers at the offsets 08h, 0Ah, and 0Bh by performing a 32-bit read from
the address offset 08h. Software can also read this register individually by doing a single 16-bit
read to offset 08h.
x_PIV—Prefetched Index Value Register
I/O Address:
Default Value:
Lockable:
NABMBAR + 0Ah (PIPIV),
NABMBAR + 1Ah (POPIV),
NABMBAR + 2Ah (MCPIV)

Description
7:5 Hardwired to 0.
4:0
Prefetched Index Value[4:0]—RO. These bits represent which buffer descriptor in the list has
been prefetched. The bits in this register are also modulo 32 and roll over after they reach 31.
Software can read the registers at the offsets 08h, 0Ah, and 0Bh by performing a 32-bit read from
the address offset 08h. Software can also read this register individually by doing a single 8-bit read
to offset 0Ah.
