Q: Thresholds
Syntax:
8430-tool ethn -Q headroom [get|set value ]
highwater [get|set value ]
irqdelay [get|set value ]
txdivisor [get|set value ]
Description:
This command option causes the driver to display or set the headroom, watermark interrupt and RX
interrupt delay threshold values.
Operands:
headroom
Keyword to display or specify how many queue buffers to hold as overflow
protection.
highwater
Keyword to display or specify how many queue buffers are to be consumed before
a high watermark interrupt is generated.
irqdelay
Keyword to display or specify the RX interrupt delay.
txdivisor
Keyword to display or specify the TX completion frequency. The value is given by
the equation: value = (2^n -1), for n, from 0 to 6, inclusive. This gives a minimum
of 0 and a maximum of 63 (0x3F). TX completions are serviced on the completion
of this number of transmissions.
[get|set value] get
displays the current value for the keyword it follows. set value specifies a new
value for the keyword it follows.
