uvm_sequence_item——sequence机制(一)
让子弹飞一会
UVM框架,将验证平台和激励分开,env以下属于平台部分,test和sequence属于激励,这样各司其职。我们可以将sequence_item 比喻成子弹,sequencer 类比成弹夹,UVM平台就是个枪。如图所示uvm_sequence 的类继承关系。
The sequence item is written by extending the uvm_sequence_item, uvm_sequence_item inherits from the uvm_object via the uvm_transaction class.
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------ // // CLASS: uvm_sequence_item // // The base class for user-defined sequence items and also the base class for // the uvm_sequence class. The uvm_sequence_item class provides the basic // functionality for objects, both sequence items and sequences, to operate in // the sequence mechanism. // //------------------------------------------------------------------------------ class uvm_sequence_item extends uvm_transaction; local int m_sequence_id = -1; protected bit m_use_sequence_info; protected int m_depth = -1; protected uvm_sequencer_base m_sequencer; protected uvm_sequence_base m_parent_sequence; static bit issued1,issued2; bit print_sequence_info; // Function: new // // The constructor method for uvm_sequence_item. function new (string name = "uvm_sequence_item"); super.new(name); endfunction function string get_type_name(); return "uvm_sequence_item"; endfunction // Macro for factory creation `uvm_object_registry(uvm_sequence_item, "uvm_sequence_item") ...... endclass
