The SCU connects one to four Cortex-A9 processors to the memory system through the AXI interfaces.
The SCU functions are to:
maintain data cache coherency between the Cortex-A9 processors
initiate L2 AXI memory accesses
arbitrate between Cortex-A9 processors requesting L2 accesses
manage ACP accesses.
The Cortex-A9 SCU does not support hardware management of coherency of the instruction cache.
