7.3.5.3. FPGA-to-HPS CCU to Memory (Cache-Allocate)
The interface from the FPGA to the HPS CCU is ACE-Lite*. These transactions go through the CCU, but can be cached or not cached, based on AxCACHE parameters. Transactions can be privileged or non-privileged depending on memory allocation.
If you do a Cache Allocate transaction, the CCU maintains coherency and allocates in the cache. This is useful when you want to maintain coherency and keep data available in the system with minimal latency, so the masters avoid traversing to the external memory for each transaction.
Reads
- On cache hits, read data is returned by the cache.
- On cache misses, read data is returned from main memory and allocated (stored) in cache.
