Missed Packets Count
MPC (04010h; R)
Counts the number of missed packets. Packets are missed when the receive FIFO has insufficient
space to store the incoming packet. This can be caused because of too few buffers allocated, or
because there is insufficient bandwidth on the PCI bus. Events setting this counter cause RXO, the
Receiver Overrun Interrupt, to be set. This register does not increment if receives are not enabled.
