摘要：verilog中的module用于描述 硬件，它可以始终包含initial和assign语句。SV引入了program，其中包含了完整的测试平台 。

1. program与module

• program 的目的：
  • • 为testbench提供接入点；
    • 创建了一个域来封装program的数据、任务和函数；
    • 便于资源在Reactive region的调度。
• program不能包含always块；
• program可以有ports，interfaces，final，initial statement；
• program可以调用modul中的函数和方任务，而module则不可以调用program中 的任务和函数 。

16     repeat (5) @ (posedge clk);
17     enable = 0;
18     // Call task in module

2. progam control tasks

• SV引入 $exit 来关闭当前程序以及其衍生的所有线程。
• 默认情况下，当程序运行到initial块末尾时，$exit会被自动调用。

 2 // Simple Program with ports
 3 //+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 4 program exit_simple(input wire clk,output logic reset,
 5             enable, input logic [3:0] count);
 6   //=================================================
 7   // Initial block inside program block
 8   //=================================================
 9   initial begin
10     $monitor("@%0dns count = %0d",$time,count);
11     fork
12        do_something();
13     join_none
14     reset = 1;
15     enable = 0;
16     #20 reset = 0;
17     @ (posedge clk);
18     enable = 1;
19     repeat (5) @ (posedge clk);
20     enable = 0;
21     #10 $exit();
22     #100 $display("%0dns Terminating simulation", $time);
23     $finish;
24   end
25   //=================================================
26   // Simple task
27   //=================================================
28   task do_something();
29     while (1) begin
30        #5 $display("%0dns inside do_something task", $time);
31     end
32   endtask
33 
34 endprogram
35 //=================================================
36 //  Module which instanciates program block
37 //=================================================
38 module exit_program();
39 logic clk  = 0;
40 always #1 clk ++;
41 logic [3:0] count;
42 wire reset,enable;
43 //=================================================
44 // Simple up counter
45 //=================================================
46 always @ (posedge clk)
47  if (reset) count <= 0;
48  else if (enable) count ++;
49 //=================================================
50 // Program is connected like a module
51 //=================================================
52 exit_simple prg_simple(clk,reset,enable,count);

3. program with interface

使用interface处理大量接口的连接问题。

 2 // Define the interface

 5   input  wire         clk,
 6   output logic        reset,
 7   output logic        enable,
 8   input  wire [3:0]   count
 9 );
10 endinterface

12 // Simple Program with ports

14 program if_program(mem_if mem);
15   //=================================================
16   // Initial block inside program block
17   //=================================================
18   initial begin
19     $monitor("@%0dns count = %0d",$time,mem.count);
20     mem.reset = 1;
21     mem.enable = 0;
22     #20 mem.reset = 0;
23     @ (posedge mem.clk);
24     mem.enable = 1;
25     repeat (5) @ (posedge mem.clk);
26     mem.enable = 0;
