Arm CoreSight System-on-Chip SoC-600 Technical Reference Manual : 9 Read Buffer Register, RDBUFF

9 Read Buffer Register, RDBUFF

The RDBUFF register captures data from the AP, presented as the result of a previous read.

Access to this register is DATA LINK DEFINED. On JTAG-DP, Read Buffer is always RAZ/WI. On SW-DP, the behavior is as follows.

The RDBUFF register characteristics are:

Attributes

Offset	`0x000C`
Type	Read-only
Reset	`0x00000000`
Width	32

The following figure shows the bit assignments.

[31:0]	`0x0`	RDATA	Performing a read of the Read Buffer captures data from the AP, presented as the result of a previous read, without initiating a new AP transaction. This means that reading the Read Buffer returns the result of the last AP read access, without generating a new AP access. After you have read the DP Read Buffer, its contents are no longer valid. The result of a second read of the DP Read Buffer returns the result of last AP read access.
