极简UVM RAL示例(PART3--后门访问，PART4--内建ral sequence)

基于part2，修改支持ral 后门仿问

tests代码

第一处修改build_phase

rgm.reset();
rgm.set_hdl_path_root("tb_top.u_dut");

第二处修改main_phase

//backdoor
rgm.reg2_reg.write(status,'h20,UVM_BACKDOOR);
rgm.reg2_reg.read(status,value,UVM_FRONTDOOR);
`uvm_info(get_full_name(),$sformatf("frontdoor read %s:%0h",rgm.reg2_reg.get_full_name(),value),UVM_MEDIUM);
rgm.reg2_reg.read(status,value,UVM_BACKDOOR);
`uvm_info(get_full_name(),$sformatf("backdoor read  %s:%0h",rgm.reg2_reg.get_full_name(),value),UVM_MEDIUM);
rgm.reg2_reg.read(status,value,UVM_FRONTDOOR);
`uvm_info(get_full_name(),$sformatf("frontdoor read %s:%0h",rgm.reg2_reg.get_full_name(),value),UVM_MEDIUM);
rgm.reg2_reg.peek(status,value);
`uvm_info(get_full_name(),$sformatf("backdoor peek  %s:%0h",rgm.reg2_reg.get_full_name(),value),UVM_MEDIUM);
rgm.reg2_reg.read(status,value,UVM_FRONTDOOR);
`uvm_info(get_full_name(),$sformatf("frontdoor read %s:%0h",rgm.reg2_reg.get_full_name(),value),UVM_MEDIUM);

基于part3，还可以实验内建ral序列

1）检查后门路径的序列

修改tests的main_phase

uvm_reg_mem_hdl_paths_seq chk_bkdoor;
phase.raise_objection(this);
chk_bkdoor =new("chk_bkdoor");
chk_bkdoor.model = rgm;
chk_bkdoor.start(null);

检查结果

2）检查默认值的序列

修改tests的main_phase

uvm_reg_hw_reset_seq chk_default;
phase.raise_objection(this);
chk_default = new("chk_default");
chk_default.model = rgm;
chk_default.start(null); 

检查结果

问题分析：检查默认值时，reg3的镜像值来自 reg3.configure()。所以，可以修改reg3的初始配置值。

3）检查读写的序列

修改tests的main_phase

uvm_reg_hw_reset_seq chk_default;
phase.raise_objection(this);
chk_default = new("chk_default");
chk_default.model = rgm;
chk_default.start(null); 

检查结果

问题分析

因为reg3(WRC), reg4(RS) 不像 reg1是只读，所以会被检查，但是reg3/4的 dut值随着read动作变化，导致比较不通过。或者设置 NO_REG_TEST, NO_REG_ACCESS_TEST。但是奇怪的是，reg4(RS)应该推测出是ffff。
