(1) The μC/TCP-IP’s Network Interface Transmit calls NetOS_Dev_TxRdyWait() to wait for a specific network interface device semaphore to become ready and/or available to transmit a packet by waiting (with or without timeout) for the specific network interface’s Device Tx Ready Signal to be signaled. |
...
(2) When a device is ready and/or available to transmit a packet, the device generates an interrupt which calls the device’s BSP-level ISR handler. |
...
(3) The device’s BSP-level ISR handler determines which network interface number the specific device’s interrupt is signaling and then calls NetIF_ISR_Handler() to handle the transmit complete interrupt. |
...
(4) The specific device ISR handlers NetDev_ISR_Handler() calls NetOS_Dev_TxRdySignal() to signal the Device Tx Ready Signal for each packet or descriptor that is now available to transmit by the device. |
...
(5) μC/TCP-IP’s Network Interface Transmit’s call to NetOS_Dev_TxRdyWait() returns since the semaphore is made ready by each available device transmit complete that signals the Device Tx Ready Signal. |
...
(6) The Network Interface Transmit then calls the specific network interface and device transmit handler functions to prepare the packet for transmission by the device. |
