Address structure

Burst Length no. of data transfers that can occur within each burst AWLEN/ARLEN[7:0] The burst length for AXI3 is defined as, Burst_Length = AxLEN[3:0] + 1 The burst length for AXI4 is defined as, Burst_Length = AxLEN[7:0] + 1,

Locked Access
Normal access, AR(W)LOCK[1:0]=b00 Exclusive access, b01
Exclusive read Exclusive write If no intervening write to the address region, EXOKAY response. If not, OKAY response.

Locked access, b11


Start with b11, and end with b00 During the period, only the lock initiating master can access the address region (not the slave!!!)

Transaction ID is used to identify data transfer at all channels


ARID, AWID, RID, WID, & BID

Ordering by transaction ID
Master needs to finish data transfers with the same transaction ID in the order of request issue. Slave can handle data transfers with different transaction IDs out-of-order

AHB vs. AXI Burst


AHB Burst
Address and Data are locked together (single pipeline stage) HREADY controls intervals of address and data

AXI Burst
One Address for entire burst

AXI Out of Order Completion


With AHB
If one slave is very slow, all data is held up

With AXI Burst


Multiple outstanding addresses, out of order (OO) completion allowed Fast slaves may return data ahead of slow slaves

Write Interleaving
Interleaving rule
Data with different ID can be interleaved. The order within a single burst is maintained The order of first data needs to be the same with that of request Write Interleave Cability The maximum number of transactions that master can interleave
