hi all,
there seems to be a clear definition of "bufferable" in both the AHB and AXI specs, pertaining to where write responses must be issued from. but, then there are tables like the following from an ARM10 manual, which makes it seems like bufferable doesn't mean anything by itself:
C B Notes
0 0 Uncached, unbuffered
0 1 Uncached, buffered
1 0 Write-through cached, buffered
1 1 Write-back cached, buffered[/font]
for both AHB and AXI, does the bufferable bit always have to be interpreted along with the cacheable bit?
another thread seems to imply this:

any other official statements to this effect?
thanks!

The answer is slightly different for AXI and AHB. I suggest you get copies of both of the specifications, you can request them through ARM's website.
