Enables state coverage of signals. State Coverage covers all possible states of a signal.
type: Dynamic

Enables coverage. Toggle Coverage gives us information on whether a bit toggled from 0 to 1 and back from 1 to 0. This does not indicate that every value of a multi-bit vector was seen, but measures if individual bits of a multi-bit vector toggled. This coverage gives information on whether a system is connected properly or not.

  • Eg: apb_sys_cfg.slave_cfg[0].trace_file_name = “periph_slave_i2c.log”;
• When this is set to a null string (default value), the trace file name follows standard SVT VIP naming conventions.
• Note:
  • The string settings should follow the standard SystemVerilog string literal requirements. For example, should not include following charaters: [, ], \, :, /, "
  • In case there are multiple agents, user needs to ensure that the trace file name settings across the agents are unique for a given simulation.

This attribute controls the unaligned address support. Enabling this configuration provides the VIP support for Unaligned transfers.

• This will generate unaligned addresses and perform any checks for the unaligned addresses which the manager generate.
• Subordinate will not flag any errors or warnings for unaligned addresses and manage the unaligned address by aligning it to appropriate aligned address and write/read for the correct byte lane using PSTRB or address alignment.

In active mode, creates an AMBA-PV-compatible socket that can be used to connect APB Master VIP component to an AMBA-PV master model.

Enabling this functionality causes the instantiation of socket b_fwd of type uvm_tlm_b_target_socket in class svt_apb_master_agent.

Generic payload transactions received through the forward b_fwd interface are executed on the tlm_generic_payload_sequencer in the agent.

When this option is set, it implies that use_tlm_generic_payload is also set, whether it actually is or not.

In active mode, creates a tlm_generic_payload_sequencer sequencer capable of generating UVM TLM Generic Payload transactions and connects the sequencer to it. The master sequencer starts a layering sequence that gets transactions from the tlm_generic_payload_sequencer, converts them to (one or more) APB transaction(s) and sends them to the driver.

APB transactions observed by the agent are also made available as TLM GP transactions through the tlm_generic_payload_observed_port in the monitor. Note that the TLM GP transactions issued through the analysis port may not match one to one with GP sequence items created by the tlm_generic_payload_sequencer because the GP sequence items may have to be mapped to multiple APB transactions according to protocol requirements. The TLM GP that is available through the tlm_generic_payload_observed_port of the monitor is a direct mapping of the observed APB transactions converted to a TLM GP. No attempt is made to re-assemble a set of APB transaction into a larger TLM GP.

The layering sequence that converts the TLM GP to APB transactions is the svt_apb_tlm_gp_to_apb_sequence and is available at $DESIGNWAREHOME/vip/svt/amba_svt//apb_master_agent_svt/sverilog/src/vcs/svt_apb_tlm_gp_sequence_collection.svp Transactions created by the layering sequence are of type cust_svt_tlm_gp_to_apb_master_transaction. Any user constraints specific to APB must be provided in a class extended from this class.

In passive mode, observed APB transactions are made available as TLM GP transactions through the tlm_generic_payload_observed_port in the monitor.
