24.5. Programming with the Intel FPGA Avalon FIFO Memory

This section describes the low-level software constructs for manipulating the Intel FPGA Avalon FIFO memory core hardware. The table below lists all of the available functions.
Table 268.  On-Chip FIFO Memory Functions
Function Name Description
altera_avalon_fifo_init() Initializes the FIFO.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_status() Returns the integer value of the specified bit of the status register. To read all of the bits at once, use the ALTERA_AVALON_FIFO_STATUS_ALL mask.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_ienable() Returns the value of the specified bit of the interrupt enable register. To read all of the bits at once, use the ALTERA_AVALON_FIFO_EVENT_ALL mask.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_almostfull() Returns the value of the almostfull register.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_almostempty() Returns the value of the almostempty register.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_event() Returns the value of the specified bit of the event register. All of the event bits can be read at once by using the ALTERA_AVALON_FIFO_STATUS_ALL mask.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_level() Returns the fill level of the FIFO.
altera_avalon_fifo_clear_event() Clears the specified bits and the event register and performs error checking.
altera_avalon_fifo_write_ienable() Writes the specified bits of the interruptenable register and performs error checking.
altera_avalon_fifo_write_almostfull() Writes the specified value to the almostfull register and performs error checking.
altera_avalon_fifo_write_almostempty() Writes the specified value to the almostempty register and performs error checking.
altera_avalon_fifo_write_fifo() Writes the specified data to the write_address.
altera_avalon_fifo_write_other_info() Writes the packet status information to the write_address. Only valid when the Enable packet data option is turned on.
altera_avalon_fifo_read_fifo() Reads data from the specified read_address.
altera_avalon_fifo_read__other_info() Reads the packet status information from the specified read_address. Only valid when the Enable packet data option is turned on.
