rxd	std_logic_vector(7 downto 0)	RX data lines (from DUT)
rxdv	std_logic	RX data valid

Configuration Record

t_gmii_bfm_config

Default value for the record is C_GMII_BFM_CONFIG_DEFAULT.

Record element	Type	Default	Description
max_wait_cycles	integer	12	The maximum number of clock cycles to wait for the DUT signals before reporting a timeout alert
max_wait_cycles_severity	t_alert_level	ERROR	The above timeout will have this severity
clock_period	time	-1 ns	Period of the clock signal
clock_period_margin	time	0 ns	Input clock period margin to specified clock_period. Will check ‘T/2’ if input clock is low when BFM is called and ‘T’ if input clock is high.
clock_margin_severity	t_alert_level	TB_ERROR	The above margin will have this severity
setup_time	time	-1 ns	Generated signals setup time. Suggested value is clock_period/4. An alert is reported if setup_time exceeds clock_period/2.

bfm_sync	t_bfm_sync	SYNC_ON_CLOCK_ONLY	When set to SYNC_ON_CLOCK_ONLY the BFM will enter on the first falling edge, estimate the clock period, synchronize the output signals and exit ¼ clock period after a succeeding rising edge. When set to SYNC_WITH_SETUP_AND_HOLD the BFM will use the configured setup_time, hold_time and clock_period to synchronize output signals with clock edges.
match_strictness	t_match_strictness	MATCH_EXACT	Matching strictness for std_logic values in check procedures. MATCH_EXACT requires both values to be the same. Note that the expected value can contain the don’t care operator ‘-‘. MATCH_STD allows comparisons between ‘H’ and ‘1’, ‘L’ and ‘0’ and ‘-’ in both values.
id_for_bfm	t_msg_id	ID_BFM	Message ID used for logging general messages in the BFM

Methods

All signals are active high.
All parameters in brackets are optional.

For clarity, data_array is required to be ascending, e.g.

variable v_data_array : t_slv_array(0 to C_MAX_BYTES - 1)(7 downto 0);

gmii_write()

Writes data to the DUT. The length and data are defined by the “data_array” argument, which is a t_slv_array. data_array(0) is written first, while data_array(data_array’high) is written last.

gmii_write(data_array, msg, gmii_tx_if, [action_when_transfer_is_done], [scope, [msg_id_panel, [config]]])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
constant	data_array	in	t_slv_array	An array of bytes containing the data to be written
constant	msg	in	string	A custom message to be appended in the log/alert
signal	gmii_tx_if	inout	t_gmii_tx_if	GMII TX signal interface record
constant	action_when_transfer_is_done	in	t_action_when_transfer_is_done	Whether to release or hold the TXEN line after the procedure is finished. Useful when transmitting a packet of data through several procedures, e.g. from Ethernet HVVC. Default value is RELEASE_LINE_AFTER_TRANSFER.

gmii_read()

Reads data from the DUT. The received data is stored in the data_array output, which is a t_slv_array. The number of valid bytes in the data_array is stored in data_len. data_array(0) is read first, while data_array(data_array’high) is read last.

gmii_read(data_array, data_len, msg, gmii_rx_if, [scope, [msg_id_panel, [config]]])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
variable	data_array	out	t_slv_array	An array of bytes containing the data to be read
variable	data_len	out	natural	The number of valid bytes in the data_array. Note that the data_array can be bigger and that is why the length is returned.
constant	msg	in	string	A custom message to be appended in the log/alert
signal	gmii_rx_if	inout	t_gmii_rx_if	GMII RX signal interface record
constant	scope	in	string	Describes the scope from which the log/alert originates. Default value is C_BFM_SCOPE (“GMII BFM”).

gmii_read(v_data_array, v_num_bytes, "Read GMII data", gmii_rx_if, C_SCOPE, shared_msg_id_panel, gmii_bfm_config);

gmii_expect()

Calls the gmii_read() procedure, then compares the received data with data_exp.

gmii_expect(data_exp, msg, gmii_rx_if, [alert_level, [scope, [msg_id_panel, [config]]]])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
constant	data_exp	in	t_slv_array	An array of bytes containing the data to be expected
constant	msg	in	string	A custom message to be appended in the log/alert
signal	gmii_rx_if	inout	t_gmii_rx_if	GMII RX signal interface record

gmii_expect(v_data_array(0 to v_num_bytes - 1), "Expect v_num_bytes bytes", gmii_rx_if, ERROR, C_SCOPE, shared_msg_id_panel, gmii_bfm_config);

init_gmii_if_signals()

Initializes the GMII interface. All the BFM outputs are set to ‘0’, and BFM inputs are set to ‘Z’.

t_gmii_rx_if := init_gmii_if_signals
t_gmii_tx_if := init_gmii_if_signals

-- Examples:
gmii_rx_if <= init_gmii_if_signals;
gmii_tx_if <= init_gmii_if_signals;

Local BFM overloads

A good approach for better readability and maintainability is to make simple, local overloads for the BFM procedures in the TB process. This allows calling the BFM procedures with the key parameters only, e.g.

gmii_write(v_data_array(0 to 1), "msg");

rather than

gmii_write(v_data_array(0 to 1), "msg", gmii_tx_if, C_SCOPE, shared_msg_id_panel, C_GMII_BFM_CONFIG_DEFAULT);

By defining the local overload as e.g.

procedure gmii_write(
  constant data_array : in t_slv_array;
  constant msg        : in string) is
begin
  gmii_write(data_array,               -- Keep as is
             msg,                      -- Keep as is
             gmii_tx_if,               -- Signal must be visible in local process scope
             C_SCOPE,                  -- Use the default
             shared_msg_id_panel,      -- Use global, shared msg_id_panel
             C_GMII_BFM_CONFIG_LOCAL); -- Use locally defined configuration or C_GMII_BFM_CONFIG_DEFAULT
end procedure;

Using a local overload like this also allows the following – if wanted:

Set up defaults for constants. May be different for two overloads of the same BFM
Apply dedicated message ID panel to allow dedicated verbosity control

Note

cmd/result queue parameters in the configuration record are unused and will be removed in v3.0, use instead the entity generic constants.

The configuration record can be accessed from the Central Testbench Sequencer through the shared variable array, e.g.

shared_gmii_vvc_config(RX, C_VVC_IDX).inter_bfm_delay.delay_in_time := 50 ns;
shared_gmii_vvc_config(TX, C_VVC_IDX).bfm_config.id_for_bfm := ID_BFM;

Status Record

vvc_status accessible via shared_gmii_vvc_status

The current status of the VVC can be retrieved during simulation. This is achieved by reading from the shared variable from the test sequencer. The record contents can be seen below:

Record element	Type	Description
current_cmd_idx	natural	Command index currently running
previous_cmd_idx	natural	Previous command index to run
pending_cmd_idx	natural	Pending number of commands in the command queue

Methods

All VVC procedures are defined in vvc_methods_pkg.vhd (dedicated to this VVC).
See Common VVC Methods for procedures which are common to all VVCs.
It is also possible to send a multicast to all instances of a VVC with ALL_INSTANCES as parameter for vvc_instance_idx.
All parameters in brackets are optional.

For clarity, data_array is required to be ascending, e.g.

variable v_data_array : t_slv_array(0 to C_MAX_BYTES - 1)(7 downto 0);

gmii_write()

Adds a write command to the GMII VVC executor queue, which will run as soon as all preceding commands have completed. When the command is scheduled to run, the executor calls the BFM gmii_write() procedure. data_array(0) is written first, while data_array(data_array’high) is written last.

gmii_write(VVCT, vvc_instance_idx, channel, data_array, msg, [action_when_transfer_is_done], [scope])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
signal	VVCT	inout	t_vvc_target_record	VVC target type compiled into each VVC in order to differentiate between VVCs
constant	vvc_instance_idx	in	integer	Instance number of the VVC
constant	channel	in	t_channel	The VVC channel of the VVC instance
constant	data_array	in	t_slv_array	An array of bytes containing the data to be written

-- Examples:
gmii_write(GMII_VVCT, 0, TX, (x"01", x"02", x"03", x"04"), "Write 4 bytes");
gmii_write(GMII_VVCT, 0, TX, v_data_array(0 to v_num_bytes - 1), "Write v_num_bytes bytes", HOLD_LINE_AFTER_TRANSFER, C_SCOPE);

gmii_read()

Adds a read command to the GMII VVC executor queue, which will run as soon as all preceding commands have completed. When the command is scheduled to run, the executor calls the BFM gmii_read() procedure.

The value read from DUT will not be returned in this procedure call since it is non-blocking for the sequencer/caller, but the read data will be stored in the VVC for a potential future fetch (see example with fetch_result below). If the data_routing is set to TO_SB, the read data will be sent to the GMII VVC dedicated scoreboard where it will be checked against the expected value (provided by the testbench).

gmii_read(VVCT, vvc_instance_idx, channel, [num_bytes], [data_routing,] msg, [scope])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
signal	VVCT	inout	t_vvc_target_record	VVC target type compiled into each VVC in order to differentiate between VVCs
constant	vvc_instance_idx	in	integer	Instance number of the VVC
constant	channel	in	t_channel	The VVC channel of the VVC instance
constant	num_bytes	in	t_channel	Number of bytes to be read
constant	data_routing	in	t_data_routing	Selects the destination of the read data
constant	msg	in	string	A custom message to be appended in the log/alert
constant	scope	in	string	Describes the scope from which the log/alert originates. Default value is C_VVC_CMD_SCOPE_DEFAULT.

-- Examples:
gmii_read(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, "Read data and store it in the VVC");
gmii_read(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, 10, "Read 10 bytes of data", C_SCOPE);
gmii_read(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, TO_SB, "Read data and send to Scoreboard for checking");

-- Example with fetch_result() call: Result is placed in v_result
variable v_cmd_idx : natural;                       -- Command index for the last read
variable v_result  : work.vvc_cmd_pkg.t_vvc_result; -- Result from read.
...
gmii_read(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, "Read data in VVC");
v_cmd_idx := get_last_received_cmd_idx(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX);
await_completion(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, v_cmd_idx, 1 us, "Wait for read to finish");
fetch_result(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, v_cmd_idx, v_result, "Fetching result from read operation");

Hint

t_vvc_result is defined in the corresponding vvc_cmd_pkg.vhd for the VIP.

gmii_expect()

Adds an expect command to the GMII VVC executor queue, which will run as soon as all preceding commands have completed. When the command is scheduled to run, the executor calls the BFM gmii_expect() procedure. The gmii_expect() procedure will perform a read operation, then check if the read data is equal to the expected data in the data parameter. If the read data is not equal to the expected data parameter, an alert with severity ‘alert_level’ will be issued. The read data will not be stored in this procedure.

gmii_expect(VVCT, vvc_instance_idx, channel, data_exp, msg, [alert_level, [scope]])

Object	Name	Dir.	Type	Description
signal	VVCT	inout	t_vvc_target_record	VVC target type compiled into each VVC in order to differentiate between VVCs
constant	vvc_instance_idx	in	integer	Instance number of the VVC
constant	channel	in	t_channel	The VVC channel of the VVC instance
constant	data_exp	in	t_slv_array	An array of bytes containing the data to be expected
constant	msg	in	string	A custom message to be appended in the log/alert
constant	alert_level	in	t_alert_level	Sets the severity for the alert. Default value is ERROR.
constant	scope	in	string	Describes the scope from which the log/alert originates. Default value is C_VVC_CMD_SCOPE_DEFAULT.

-- Examples:
gmii_expect(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, (x"01", x"02", x"03", x"04"), "Expect 4 bytes from DUT");
gmii_expect(GMII_VVCT, 0, RX, v_data_array(0 to v_num_bytes - 1), "Expect v_num_bytes from DUT", ERROR, C_SCOPE);

Activity Watchdog

The VVCs support a centralized VVC activity register which the activity watchdog uses to monitor the VVC activities. The VVCs will register their presence to the VVC activity register at start-up, and report when ACTIVE and INACTIVE, using dedicated VVC activity register methods, and trigger the global_trigger_vvc_activity_register signal during simulations. The activity watchdog is continuously monitoring the VVC activity register for VVC inactivity and raises an alert if no VVC activity is registered within the specified timeout period.

Include activity_watchdog(num_exp_vvc, timeout, [alert_level, [msg]]) in the testbench to start using the activity watchdog. Note that setting the exact number of expected VVCs in the VVC activity register can be omitted by setting num_exp_vvc = 0.

More information can be found in Essential Mechanisms - Activity Watchdog.

Transaction Info

This VVC supports transaction info, a UVVM concept for distributing transaction information in a controlled manner within the complete testbench environment. The transaction info may be used in many different ways, but the main purpose is to share information directly from the VVC to a DUT model.

GMII transaction info record fields. Transaction Type: t_base_transaction (BT) - accessible via **shared_gmii_vvc_transaction_info.bt**
Info field	Type	Default	Description
operation	t_operation	NO_OPERATION	Current VVC operation, e.g. INSERT_DELAY, POLL_UNTIL, READ, WRITE
data_array	t_slv_array(0 to 2047)(7 downto 0)	0x0	Data for GMII read or write transaction
vvc_meta	t_vvc_meta	C_VVC_META_DEFAULT	VVC meta data of the executing VVC command
-> msg	string	“”	Message of executing VVC command
-> cmd_idx	integer	-1	Command index of executing VVC command
transaction_status	t_transaction_status	INACTIVE	Set to INACTIVE, IN_PROGRESS, FAILED or SUCCEEDED during a transaction

More information can be found in Essential Mechanisms - Distribution of Transaction Info.

Scoreboard

This VVC has built in Scoreboard functionality where data can be routed by setting the TO_SB parameter in supported method calls, i.e. gmii_read(). Note that the data is only stored in the scoreboard and not accessible with the fetch_result() method when the TO_SB parameter is applied. The GMII scoreboard is accessible from the testbench as a shared variable GMII_VVC_SB, located in the vvc_methods_pkg.vhd, e.g.

GMII_VVC_SB.add_expected(C_GMII_VVC_IDX, v_expected, "Adding expected");

See the Bitvis VIP Scoreboard for a complete list of available commands and additional information. All of the listed Generic Scoreboard commands are available for the GMII VVC scoreboard using the GMII_VVC_SB.

Unwanted Activity Detection

This VVC supports detection of unwanted activity from the DUT. This mechanism will give an alert if the DUT generates any unexpected bus activity. It assures that no data is output from the DUT when it is not expected, i.e. read/receive/check/expect VVC methods are not called. Once the VVC is inactive, it starts to monitor continuously on the DUT outputs. When unwanted activity is detected, the VVC issues an alert.

The unwanted activity detection can be configured from the central testbench sequencer, where the severity of alert can be changed to a different value. To disable this feature in the testbench, e.g.

shared_gmii_vvc_config(RX, C_VVC_INDEX).unwanted_activity_severity := NO_ALERT;

The unwanted activity detection is ignored when the rxdv signal goes low within one clock period after the VVC becomes inactive. This is to handle the situation when the read command exits before the next rising edge, causing signal transitions during the first clock cycle after the VVC is inactive.

For GMII VVC, the unwanted activity detection is enabled by default with severity ERROR.

Note

This feature is only implemented on gmii_rx_vvc.

More information can be found in Essential Mechanisms - Unwanted Activity Detection.

Compilation

The GMII VVC must be compiled with VHDL-2008 or newer. It is dependent on the following libraries:

UVVM Utility Library (UVVM-Util)

UVVM VVC Framework

Bitvis VIP Scoreboard

GMII BFM

Before compiling the GMII VVC, assure that uvvm_util, uvvm_vvc_framework and bitvis_vip_scoreboard have been compiled.

See Essential Mechanisms - Compile Scripts for information about compile scripts.
