Chapter 32: LPC24XX General Purpose DMA (GPDMA) controller
shows the value of the 3 bit SWidth or DWidth fields and the corresponding
transfer width.
6.2.5 Protection and Access Information
AHB access information is provided to the source and destination peripherals when a 
transfer occurs. The transfer information is provided by programming the DMA channel 
(the Prot bit of the DMACCxControl Register, and the Lock bit of the 
DMACCxConfiguration Register). These bits are programmed by software and 
peripherals can use this information if necessary. Three bits of information are provided, 
and 
shows the purpose of the three protection bits.

Value
28
Privileged or User. This bit controls the AHB HPROT[1] signal.
Indicates that the access is in User, or privileged mode:
0
0
User mode.
1
Privileged mode.
29
Bufferable or not bufferable. This bit indicates that the access 
is bufferable. This bit can, for example, be used to indicate to 
an AMBA bridge that the read can complete in zero wait states 
on the source bus without waiting for it to arbitrate for the 
destination bus and for the slave to accept the data. This bit 
controls the AHB HPROT[2] signal.
Indicates that the access is bufferable, or not bufferable:
0
0
Not bufferable.
1
Bufferable.
