                            1.3.2. Read and Write to Main Memory
CCI-P defines upstream memory read and write requests for accessing the processor main memory using physical addresses. In a non-virtualized system, the AFU is expected to drive a host physical address. When in a virtualized system, the AFU is expected to drive a guest physical address. The addressing mode is transparent to the AFU hardware developer. The software application developer must ensure that software provides a physical address to the AFU.
CCI-P specification defines a weak memory consistency model for upstream memory requests.
