11.8.3.2. FPGA-to-HPS CCU to Memory (Cache Non-Allocate)
The interface from the FPGA to the HPS CCU is ACE5-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 your logic issues a cache non-allocate transaction, the CCU maintains coherency but does not allocate in the cache. This is useful when you want to maintain coherency but not thrash the cache.
Reads are processed as follows:
- On cache hits, read data is returned by the cache.
- On cache misses, read data is returned from main memory and not allocated (stored) in cache.
The following table shows the read data attribute list.
Attribute | Value | Note |
---|---|---|
ARDOMAIN[1:0] | ‘b01 | Inner sharable |
ARBAR[1:0] | ‘b00 | Normal access, respecting barriers |
ARSNOOP[3:0] | ‘b0000 | ReadOnce |
ARCACHE[3:0] | ‘b1011 | Write-back no-allocate |
AxUSER[7:0] | ‘b00000100 | 0x04 = CCU |
AxPROT[2:0] | ‘b001 | Data access. Secure access. Privileged access. |
AxLEN[7:0] |
- | The burst length for:
|
AxSIZE[2:0] | - | The number of bytes in a transfer must be equal to the data bus width. |
AxBURST[1:0] | ‘b01 or ‘b10 | Must be INCR(‘b01) or WRAP(‘b10) |
AxLOCK[1:0] | ‘b00 | Must be normal access |
AxQOS | - | Do not care |
Writes are processed as follows:
- On cache hits, write data is stored in cache.
- On cache misses, write data is stored to main memory.
