Hi,
In AXI4, spec changed the definition of the definition of AxCACHE[3:2] from Write Allocate/Read Allocate to be Allocate/Other Allocate.
But is there any concrete reason for this change? Actually I found some related statements from spec, but I couldn't get the point.
"The change to the definition of AxCACHE means that these signals can differ for a read and write transaction to the same location."
Does it mean with this change, we can distinguish the transaction type (i.e., read/write) from AxCACHE signal? However, from memory type encoding, the AxCACHE of "Read and Write-allocate" are the same for both read and write transactions.
Thanks.
