129 / 203 page ![]() DS3134 129 of 203 8.2.2 Packet Descriptors In main memory resides a contiguous section up to 65,536 quad dwords that make up the Transmit Packet Descriptors. The Transmit Packet Descriptors are aligned on a quad dword basis and can be placed anywhere in the 32-bit address space via the Transmit Descriptor Base Address (see Table 8.2.2A). Associated with each descriptor is a data buffer. The data buffer can be up to 8191 bytes long and must be a contiguous section of main memory. The host will inform the DMA of the actual size of the data buffer via the Byte Count field that resides in the Packet Descriptor. If an outgoing packet requires more space than the data buffer allows, then Packet Descriptors will be link-listed together by the Host to provide a chain of data buffers. Figure 8.2.2A is an example of how three descriptors were linked together for an incoming packet on HDLC Channel 7. Channel 3 only required a single data buffer and hence only one Packet Descriptor was used. Figure 8.2.1A shows a similar example for channels5 and 1. Packet Descriptors can be either pending (i.e. queued up by the host and ready for transmission by the DMA) or completed (i.e. have been transmitted by the DMA and are available for processing by the host). Pending Packet Descriptors are pointed to by the Pending Queue Descriptors and completed Packet Descriptors are pointed to by the Done Queue Descriptors.
