Software flow control is enabled through the enhanced feature register (UARTi.UART_EFR) and the modem control register (UARTi.UART_MCR). Different combinations of software flow control can be enabled by setting different combinations of the UARTi.UART_EFR[3:0] bit field (see Table 24-113).
Two other enhanced features relate to software flow control:
The XON-any character is written into the RX FIFO even if it is a software flow character.
