16.3.3.1 Inbound Message Controller Initialization
The sequence of events to initialize the inbound message controller is as follows:
1.
Initialize the frame queue dequeue pointer address registers (IMxFQDPAR) and the
frame queue enqueue pointer address registers (IMxFQEPAR) to the same value for
proper operation. These registers must also be queue size aligned, that is, they must be
aligned on a boundary equal to the number of queue entries
×
frame size in byte. For
example, if there are eight entries in the queue and the frame size is 128 bytes, the
register must be 1024-byte aligned.
2.
Clear the status register (IMxSR).
3.
In the inbound message mode register (IMxMR), set the mailbox enable bit
(IMxMR[ME]) along with the other control parameters (frame queue size,
message-in-queue threshold, frame size, snoop enable, and the various interrupt
enables).
