Section 12 Ethernet Controller Direct Memory Access Controller (E-DMAC)
1. TFP = 00 or 01 (frame continuation):
Descriptor write-back is performed after DMA transfer.
2. TFP = 01 or 11 (frame end):
Descriptor write-back is performed after completion of frame transmission.
The E-DMAC continues reading descriptors and transmitting frames as long as the setting of the
TACT bit in the read descriptors is "active." When a descriptor with an "inactive" TACT bit is
read, the E-DMAC resets the transmit request bit (TR) in the transmit register and ends transmit
processing (EDTRR).
