Hardware and software interfacing and communication

The acceleration path introduced in the end-to-end communication path between the ETM switch and the software running on the Cortex-A9 is only necessary for the UDP packets received over the Ethernet port. Anything else that’s received over this Ethernet port, such as Ethernet management frames and ARP frames, we have no interest in accelerating, so we would like the acceleration path to be transparent to them. However, we can’t do this by simply returning the received Ethernet packets that aren’t of interest to our acceleration hardware to the Ethernet controller. This is because the received buffer within the Ethernet controller is a FIFO that the Ethernet frames can’t be written back to once they’ve been consumed from it. One approach would be to let the Cortex-A9 processor perform the Ethernet frames receive management and pass them to the hardware acceleration PE, which behaves like a packet...
