如何理解read-allocate / write-allocate in AXI4 spec

hi, experts:

AXI4 Memory attributes有: Read-Allocate / Write-Allocate.

请问:

它和L2 Cache的Read-allocate/write-allocate policy是一回事吗?

如果read miss,则会在L2 Cache中分配一个entry?

best wishes,

  • Hi chinatiger,

    >AXI4 Memory attributes有: Read-Allocate / Write-Allocate.

    AXI4中,对AxCACHE信号的定义作出了更新:

    AWCACHE[3]: Allocate

    AWCACHE[2]: Other Allocate

    ARCACHE[3]: Other Allocate

    ARCACHE[2]: Allocate

    详细介绍请看 0022E,Table A4-3和A4-4。

    我假定“L2 Cache”指的是PL310。

    你的理解基本上是正确的。
