New AMBA 5 ACE/AXI Specification and Its Support in Cadence ACE/AXI VIP
April 4, 2018
As discussed in the previous installments of the blog, the recent update of the AMBA® 5 ACE/AXI specification introduced several performance improvement features which align the AMBA5 ACE/AXI protocol with AMBA 5 CHI (Coherent Hub Interface) specification. Among them is the new class of atomic transactions, discussed in-depth previously.
Another new transaction class includes the new cache stash transactions which install a cache line in the cache of another component in the system, moving it closer to the point of use, thus improving the overall system performance.
