Page 62 : "The RX PTP Packet buffers are only available when the AVB functionality is included in the TEMAC core."
Given that:
1/ I have Full license of TEMAC but only eval license of Ethernet AVB endpoint.
2/ I am able to synthesize my design all the way to bitfile with TEMAC with Enable AVB option checked.
My general question is:
1/ Is there any limitation about implementing packet managers of 802.1AS?
More specific questions:
1/ Is the rx ptp packet buffers exist on my design above?
More detail of my experience:
- When the 802.1AS packet arrive, I can see the packet being recognized as good multicast frames(based on those statistic counters and statistics vectors);however, I when I tried to dump all rx_ptp buffers it is look like this all the time (even when there is nothing in the RX)

Code to print the above:
void print_rx_ptp_buffer(){
uint32_t base_address = 0x10000;
uint8_t response ;
for (int i=0; i<16;i++){
xil_printf("page %d (%x): \n\r",i,base_address);
for(int j=0; j < 256; j++){
response=Xil_In8(MAC_BASEADDR+base_address+j);
if (response !=0){
xil_printf("\t\t%x (%x): \t%x\n\r",j,base_address+j,response);
}
}
base_address += 256;
}
