I use GEM_GXL 1p9 and 1p10 but I should be comatible with old version as well.

From documentation:

Receive Buffer Descriptor Entry
Word 0:
Bit 2:
Address [2] of beginning of buffer.
Or
In Extended Buffer Descriptor Mode (DMA configuration register[28] = 1), indicates a valid timestamp in the BD entry

Transmit Buffer Descriptor Entry
Word 1:
Bit 23:
For Extended Buffer Descriptor Mode this bit Indicates a timestamp has been captured in the BD. Otherwise Reserved.
