LLFIFO Standalone Driver
Table of Contents
Introduction
This page gives an overview of the llfifo driver which is available as part of the Xilinx Vivado and SDK distribution.The LogiCORE™ IP AXI4-Stream FIFO core allows memory mapped access to an AXI4-Stream interface.
The core can be used to interface to AXI Streaming IPs, Similar to the LogiCORE IP AXI Ethernet core,
Without having to use a full DMA solution. The principal operation of this core allows the write or read
Of data packets to or from a device without any concern over the AXI4-Stream interface signaling.
You can easily manage the AXI4-Stream interfaces as they are transparent.
How to enable

xllfifo_interrupt_example.c : This example is the interrupt example for the FIFO it assumes that at the
H/w level FIFO is connected in loopback. In these, we write a known amount of data to the FIFO and wait for interrupts and after
Completely receiving the data compares it with the data transmitted.
xllfifo_polling_example.c : This example is the polling example for the FIFO it assumes that at the h/w level FIFO is connected in
Loopback. In these we write a known amount of data to the FIFO and Receive the data and compare with the data transmitted.

Features Supported
Controller Features
- 32-bit AXI4-Lite slave interface
- Configurable data interface type (AXI4 or AXI4-Lite)
- Configurable data width of 32, 64, 128, 256 or 512 bits (AXI4 Data Interface only). For AXI4-Lite, the FIFO data width is 32 bits and for AXI4, it is identical to AXI4 data width.
- Configurable FIFO depth of 512 to 128k locations.
- Independently configurable internal TX and RX data FIFOs
- Full duplex operation
- Supports AXI Ethernet basic mode
- Provides interrupts for error and status conditions
- TX and RX cut-through mode
Standalone Driver Supported Features
The LLFIFO Standalone driver supports the below things.- Supports Configurable data interface types (AXI4 or AXI4-lite).
- Supports Configurable data widths
- Supports Configurable FIFO depth feature
- Supports TX and RX cut-through mode feature
- Supports Independent configuration of the Tx and Rx data FIFO's.
- Supports Full duplex operation.
Test cases
- Refer below pah for testing different examples for each feature of the IP.
xllfifo_interrupt_example.c : This example is the interrupt example for the FIFO it assumes that at the
H/w level FIFO is connected in loopback. In these, we write a known amount of data to the FIFO and wait for interrupts and after
Completely receiving the data compares it with the data transmitted.
xllfifo_polling_example.c : This example is the polling example for the FIFO it assumes that at the h/w level FIFO is connected in
Loopback. In these we write a known amount of data to the FIFO and Receive the data and compare with the data transmitted.
Known issues and Limitations
- All IP features are supported by the driver.
