UVM实战CH2:09 把monitor和driver封装成agent

把monitor和driver封装成agent

monitor

• driver和monitor处理的是同一种协议。由于二者相似，UVM中将二者封装在一起，成为一个agent。
• 不同的agent就代表了不同的协议

my_agent代码

`ifndef MY_AGENT__SV
`define MY_AGENT__SV

class my_agent extends uvm_agent ;
//所有的agent都要派生自uvm_agent类
   my_driver     drv;
   my_monitor    mon;
   
   function new(string name, uvm_component parent);
      super.new(name, parent);
   endfunction 
   
   extern virtual function void build_phase(uvm_phase phase);
   extern virtual function void connect_phase(uvm_phase phase);

   `uvm_component_utils(my_agent)
   //使用uvm_component_utils宏来实现factory注册
endclass 


function void my_agent::build_phase(uvm_phase phase);
   super.build_phase(phase);
   if (is_active == UVM_ACTIVE) begin
   //is_active是uvm_agent的一个成员变量
   //build_phase中根据is_active这个变量的值来决定是否创建driver的实例
       drv = my_driver::type_id::create("drv", this);
   end
   mon = my_monitor::type_id::create("mon", this);
endfunction 

function void my_agent::connect_phase(uvm_phase phase);
   super.connect_phase(phase);
endfunction

`endif

agent的UVM_PASSIVE和UVM_ACTIVE

• is_active是uvm_agent的一个成员变量，agent的build_phase中根据is_active这个变量的值来决定是否创建driver的实例
• is_active的值默认为UVM_ACTIVE
• active下，创建driver，用作input端；passive下，不创建driver，只有monitor，用作output端
  

env中例化agent

把driver和monitor封装成agent后，在env中需要实例化agent

`ifndef MY_ENV__SV
`define MY_ENV__SV

class my_env extends uvm_env;

   my_agent  i_agt;
   my_agent  o_agt;
   //声明两个agent，一个input，一个output
   
   function new(string name = "my_env", uvm_component parent);
      super.new(name, parent);
   endfunction

   virtual function void build_phase(uvm_phase phase);
      super.build_phase(phase);
      //agent的build_phase中创建两个agent的实例，并且指定is_active的值
      i_agt = my_agent::type_id::create("i_agt", this);
      o_agt = my_agent::type_id::create("o_agt", this);
      i_agt.is_active = UVM_ACTIVE;
      o_agt.is_active = UVM_PASSIVE;
   endfunction

   `uvm_component_utils(my_env)
endclass
`endif

在top_tb中修改config_db set的路径

`timescale 1ns/1ps

module top_tb;

my_if output_if(clk, rst_n);

dut my_dut(.clk(clk),
           .rst_n(rst_n),
           .rxd(input_if.data),
           .rx_dv(input_if.valid),
           .txd(output_if.data),
           .tx_en(output_if.valid));

initial begin
   clk = 0;
   forever begin
      #100 clk = ~clk;
   end
end

initial begin
   rst_n = 1'b0;
   #1000;
   rst_n = 1'b1;
end

initial begin
   run_test("my_env");
   //run_test只创建my_env实例，my_env中的agent在build_phase中创建
end

initial begin
//config_db的set函数中修改driver和monitor的路径
   uvm_config_db#(virtual my_if)::set(null, "uvm_test_top.i_agt.drv", "vif", input_if);
   uvm_config_db#(virtual my_if)::set(null, "uvm_test_top.i_agt.mon", "vif", input_if);
   uvm_config_db#(virtual my_if)::set(null, "uvm_test_top.o_agt.mon", "vif", output_if);
end

endmodule

UVM树形图

• 只有uvm_component才能作为树的结点
• build_phase的从树根到树叶的执行顺序
• UVM要求UVM树最晚在build_phase时段完成
