23 UVM Event

发布时间:2023年12月31日

even机制提供进程之间的同步。与System Verilo event相比,UVM event提供了额外的灵活性,如保持事件等待器/event waiters的数量和设置回调。

uvm_event类声明:

virtual class uvm_event_base extends uvm_object
class uvm_event#(type T=uvm_object) extends uvm_event_base;

1 uvm_event class hierarchy

对于UVM 1.2,uvm_event_base类是System Verilog event构造上的抽象包装类,uvm_event类是uvm_event_base类的扩展。
对于UVM1.1d,抽象的uvm_event_base类不存在。uvm_event类直接派生自uvm_object类。

event通过从一个进程触发事件并等待另一个进程中的事件触发来提供进程之间的同步。UVM事件也可以在触发时传递数据,这使其与SV event不同。

4 UVM Event Examples

4.1? I. Event is triggered and waiting for the event to be triggered via the wait_trigger method

例如,有两个进程A和B。process_A任务用于触发事件e1,process_B任务用于等待事件。

4.1.1 Type A: An event is triggered after waiting for the event trigger

process_A任务有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发后触发事件e1。使用wait_trigger方法调用等待事件触发,一旦触发e1事件,该方法调用将被解除阻止。

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_trigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: waiting for the event e1
@10: Before triggering event e1
@10: After triggering event e1
@10: event e1 is triggered

4.1.2 Type B: An event is triggered before waiting for the event trigger

process_B任务有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发之前触发事件e1。由于之前触发了e1事件,因此不会解除对事件触发的等待。因此,等待触发器后的语句将不会执行。

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_trigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: Before triggering event e1
@0: After triggering event e1
@10: waiting for the event e1

4.1.3 Type C: An event is triggered at the same time as waiting for the event trigger

process_A和process_B没有延迟,以确保触发事件并等待事件触发同时发生。由于这两个进程是同时触发的,因此wait_trigger方法不会检测到事件触发。uvm_event提供了一个wait_ptrigger方法来解决这个race-around问题.

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_trigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: Before triggering event e1
@0: After triggering event e1
@0: waiting for the event e1

4.2 II. Event is triggered and waiting for the event to be triggered via the wait_ptrigger method

例如,有两个进程A和B。process_A任务用于触发事件e1,process_B任务用于使用wait_ptrigger等待事件。

4.2.1 Type A: An event is triggered after waiting for the event trigger.

process_A任务有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发后触发事件e1。一旦e1事件被触发,通过wait_ptrigger()方法触发事件的等待将被解除阻止。

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_ptrigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: waiting for the event e1
@10: Before triggering event e1
@10: After triggering event e1
@10: event e1 is triggered

4.2.2 Type B: An event is triggered before waiting for event trigger

process_B任务有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发之前触发事件e1。由于之前触发了e1事件,因此通过wait()构造触发事件的等待不会被解除阻止。因此,等待触发器(使用@operator)后的语句将不会执行。

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_ptrigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: Before triggering event e1
@0: After triggering event e1
@10: waiting for the event e1

4.2.3 Type C: An event is triggered at the same time as waiting for the event trigger.

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    e1.trigger;
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_ptrigger;
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered", $time);
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

Output:

@0: Before triggering event e1
@0: After triggering event e1
@0: waiting for the event e1
@0: event e1 is triggered

4.3 III. Event is triggered with data and waiting for the event to be triggered and retrieve data using wait_on and get_trigger_data.

例如,有两个进程A和B。process_A任务用于触发事件e1,将事务对象作为数据发送,process_B任务用于等待事件和检索数据。

4.3.1 Type A: retrieve data using wait_on and get_trigger_data.

process_A任务具有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发后触发事件e1。使用wait_on方法调用等待事件触发,一旦触发e1事件,就会取消阻止该方法调用。get_trigger_data用于检索上次调用触发器方法提供的数据。

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

class transaction extends uvm_object;
  rand bit [7:0] addr;
  rand bit [7:0] data;
  
  function new(string name = "transaction");
    super.new(name);
  endfunction
  
  `uvm_object_utils_begin(transaction)
    `uvm_field_int(addr, UVM_PRINT);
    `uvm_field_int(data, UVM_PRINT);
  `uvm_object_utils_end
endclass

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    transaction tr_A = new();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    assert(tr_A.randomize);
    tr_A.print();
    e1.trigger(tr_A);
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    uvm_object event_data;
    transaction tr_B;
    
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_on();
    event_data = e1.get_trigger_data();
    $cast(tr_B, event_data);
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered and data received = \n%s", $time, tr_B.sprint());
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

output:

@0: waiting for the event e1
@10: Before triggering event e1
-------------------------------------
Name         Type         Size  Value
-------------------------------------
transaction  transaction  -     @336 
  addr       integral     8     'ha3 
  data       integral     8     'h8f 
-------------------------------------
@10: After triggering event e1
@10: event e1 is triggered and data received = 
-------------------------------------
Name         Type         Size  Value
-------------------------------------
transaction  transaction  -     @336 
  addr       integral     8     'ha3 
  data       integral     8     'h8f 
-------------------------------------

相似的,也可以用wait_on和get_ptrigger_data。

4.3.2 Type B: retrieve data using wait_trigger_data

process_A任务具有10ns的延迟,确保在等待事件触发后触发事件e1。使用wait_trigger_data方法调用等待事件被触发,一旦e1事件被触发,该方法调用将被取消阻止。

wait_trigger_data = wait_trigger + get_trigger_data.

// wait_trigger_data definition
virtual task wait_trigger_data (output T data); 
  wait_trigger();
  data = get_trigger_data();
endtask

Example:

`include "uvm_macros.svh"
import uvm_pkg::*;

class transaction extends uvm_object;
  rand bit [7:0] addr;
  rand bit [7:0] data;
  
  function new(string name = "transaction");
    super.new(name);
  endfunction
  
  `uvm_object_utils_begin(transaction)
    `uvm_field_int(addr, UVM_PRINT);
    `uvm_field_int(data, UVM_PRINT);
  `uvm_object_utils_end
endclass

module event_example();
  uvm_event e1;
  
  task process_A();
    transaction tr_A = new();
    #10;
    $display("@%0t: Before triggering event e1", $time);
    assert(tr_A.randomize);
    tr_A.print();
    e1.trigger(tr_A);
    $display("@%0t: After triggering event e1", $time);
  endtask
  
  task process_B();
    uvm_object event_data;
    transaction tr_B;
    
    $display("@%0t: waiting for the event e1", $time);
    e1.wait_trigger_data(event_data);
    $cast(tr_B, event_data);
    $display("@%0t: event e1 is triggered and data received = \n%s", $time, tr_B.sprint());
  endtask

  initial begin
    e1 = new();
    fork
      process_A();
      process_B();
    join
  end
endmodule

output:

@0: waiting for the event e1
@10: Before triggering event e1
-------------------------------------
Name         Type         Size  Value
-------------------------------------
transaction  transaction  -     @1798
  addr       integral     8     'h2f 
  data       integral     8     'hb3 
-------------------------------------
@10: After triggering event e1
@10: event e1 is triggered and data received = 
-------------------------------------
Name         Type         Size  Value
-------------------------------------
transaction  transaction  -     @1798
  addr       integral     8     'h2f 
  data       integral     8     'hb3 
-------------------------------------

类似的,可以用wait_ptrigger_data。
