|
20 | 20 | ## Testbench architecture |
21 | | -USBDEV testbench has been constructed based on the [CIP testbench architecture](../../../dv/sv/cip_lib/README.md). |
| 21 | +The USBDEV testbench is based on the [CIP testbench architecture](../../../dv/sv/cip_lib/README.md). |
22 | 22 |
|
23 | 23 | ### Top level testbench |
24 | | -Top level testbench is located at `hw/ip/usbdev/dv/tb/tb.sv`. |
| 24 | +The top-level testbench is located at `hw/ip/usbdev/dv/tb/tb.sv`. |
25 | 25 | It instantiates the USBDEV DUT module `hw/ip/usbdev/rtl/usbdev.sv`. |
26 | | -In addition, it instantiates the following interfaces, connects them to the DUT and sets their handle into `uvm_config_db`: |
27 | | -* [Clock and reset interface for the TL and USB domains](../../../dv/sv/common_ifs/README.md) |
28 | | -* [TileLink host interface](../../../dv/sv/tl_agent/README.md) |
29 | | -* USBDEV IOs |
30 | | -* Interrupts ([`pins_if`](../../../dv/sv/common_ifs/README.md) |
31 | | - |
32 | | -### Common DV utility components |
33 | | -The following utilities provide generic helper tasks and functions to perform activities that are common across the project: |
34 | | -* [dv_utils_pkg](../../../dv/sv/dv_utils/README.md) |
35 | | -* [csr_utils_pkg](../../../dv/sv/csr_utils/README.md) |
36 | | - |
37 | | -### Compile-time configurations |
38 | | -None for now. |
39 | | - |
40 | | -### Global types & methods |
41 | | -All common types and methods defined at the package level can be found in `usbdev_env_pkg`. |
42 | | -Some of them in use are: |
43 | | -```systemverilog |
44 | | -[list a few parameters, types & methods; no need to mention all] |
45 | | -``` |
46 | 26 |
|
47 | | -### TL_agent |
48 | | -USBDEV testbench instantiates (already handled in CIP base env) [tl_agent](../../../dv/sv/tl_agent/README.md) which provides the ability to drive and independently monitor random traffic via TL host interface into USBDEV device. |
| 27 | +USBDEV has the following interfaces, which the testbench instantiates and connects and registers with `uvm_config_db`: |
| 28 | +- [Clock and reset interfaces](../../../dv/sv/common_ifs/README.md) for the USB and AON clock domains. |
| 29 | +- A [TileLink interface](../../../dv/sv/tl_agent/README.md). |
| 30 | + USBDEV is a TL-UL device, which expects to communicate with a TL-UL host. |
| 31 | + In the OpenTitan SoC, this will be the Ibex core. |
| 32 | +- A `usb20_block_if` representing the actual USB interface. |
| 33 | + This is using a class that has been developed in parallel with `usb20_if`. |
| 34 | + Eventually, they will hopefully be merged again. |
| 35 | +- An [alert interface](../../../dv/sv/alert_esc_agent/README.md) |
| 36 | +- Interrupts, modelled with the basic [`pins_if`](../../../dv/sv/common_ifs/README.md) interface. |
49 | 37 |
|
50 | | -### USB20 Agent |
51 | | -The [usb20_agent](../../../dv/sv/usb20_agent/README.md) is currently a skeleton implementation. |
52 | | -It does not offer any functionality yet. |
| 38 | +### Agents |
| 39 | +USBDEV has dedicated agents for two interfaces. |
53 | 40 |
|
54 | | -### UVM RAL Model |
55 | | -The USBDEV RAL model is created with the [`ralgen`](../../../dv/tools/ralgen/README.md) FuseSoC generator script automatically when the simulation is at the build stage. |
| 41 | +- The dedicated [usb20_agent](../../../dv/sv/usb20_agent/README.md), which has its own documentation. |
| 42 | + This handles the USB interface itself. |
56 | 43 |
|
57 | | -It can be created manually by invoking [`regtool`](../../../../util/reggen/doc/setup_and_use.md): |
| 44 | +- The generic [tl_agent](../../../dv/sv/tl_agent/README.md) inherited from CIP base environment. |
| 45 | + This handles TileLink traffic (accessing both CSRs and packet buffers) |
58 | 46 |
|
59 | 47 | ### Reference models |
60 | | -There are no reference models in use currently. |
| 48 | +The only reference model for USBDEV is a RAL model for CSR reads and writes. |
| 49 | +For this, there is a dedicated RAL model, which is created by [`ralgen`](../../../dv/tools/ralgen/README.md) as part of the build flow. |
61 | 50 |

62 | 51 | ### Stimulus strategy |
63 | 52 | #### Test sequences |
64 | 53 | All test sequences reside in `hw/ip/usbdev/dv/env/seq_lib`. |
65 | 54 | The `usbdev_base_vseq` virtual sequence is extended from `cip_base_vseq` and serves as a starting point. |
66 | 55 | All test sequences are extended from `usbdev_base_vseq`. |
67 | | -It provides commonly used handles, variables, functions and tasks that the test sequences can simple use / call. |
68 | | -Some of the most commonly used tasks / functions are as follows: |
69 | | -* `usbdev_init()`: Do basic USB device initialization. |
| 56 | +It provides commonly used handles, variables, functions and tasks that the test sequences can simply use / call. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +USBDEV virtual sequences normally also run a `usbdev_init` task at the start of the simulation. |
| 59 | +This does basic USB device initialization and is only disabled for `usbdev_common_vseq` (which tests CSR behaviour and doesn't need to enable USB itself). |
70 | 60 |
|
71 | 61 | #### Functional coverage |
72 | | -To ensure high quality constrained random stimulus, it is necessary to develop a functional coverage model. |
73 | | -The following covergroups have been developed to prove that the test intent has been adequately met: |
74 | | -* TBD |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +Covergroups for functional coverage (as collected by `usbdev_env_cov`) are listed in the testplan at `hw/ip/usbdev/data/usbdev_testplan.hjson`. |
75 | 64 |
|
76 | 65 | ### Self-checking strategy |
77 | 66 | #### Scoreboard |
78 | | -The `usbdev_scoreboard` is primarily used for end to end checking. |
79 | | -It creates the following analysis ports to retrieve the data monitored by corresponding interface agents: |
80 | | -* TBD |
| 67 | +The `usbdev_scoreboard` is currently in skeleton form and doesn't really contain any checks. |
| 68 | +TODO: Extend the scoreboard far enough that there's something to document, then document it here. |
81 | 69 |
|
82 | 70 | #### Assertions |
83 | 71 | * TLUL assertions: The `tb/usbdev_bind.sv` binds the `tlul_assert` [assertions](../../tlul/doc/TlulProtocolChecker.md) to the IP to ensure TileLink interface protocol compliance. |
84 | 72 | * Unknown checks on DUT outputs: The RTL has assertions to ensure all outputs are initialized to known values after coming out of reset. |
85 | | -* TBD |
86 | 73 |
|
87 | 74 | ## Building and running tests |
88 | 75 | We are using our in-house developed [regression tool](../../../../util/dvsim/README.md) for building and running our tests and regressions. |
