Table of Contents

This example shows connecting analysis port to multiple analysis imp ports.
TLM Analysis ports TesetBench Components are,

Implementing analysis port in comp_a
class component_a extends uvm_component; transaction trans; //Step-1. Declaring analysis port uvm_analysis_port#(transaction) analysis_port; `uvm_component_utils(component_a) //--------------------------------------- // Constructor //--------------------------------------- function new(string name, uvm_component parent); super.new(name, parent); //Step-2. Creating analysis port analysis_port = new("analysis_port", this); endfunction : new //--------------------------------------- // run_phase //--------------------------------------- virtual task run_phase(uvm_phase phase); phase.raise_objection(this); trans = transaction::type_id::create("trans", this); void'(trans.randomize()); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" tranaction randomized"),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Printing trans, \n %s", trans.sprint()),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Before calling port write method"),UVM_LOW) //Ste-3. Calling write method analysis_port.write(trans); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" After calling port write method"),UVM_LOW) phase.drop_objection(this); endtask : run_phaseendclass : component_a |
Implementing analysis imp_ports in comp_b
Implementing analysis imp_ports in a component involves below steps,
1. define the analysis_imp_ports using macro
`uvm_analysis_imp_decl(port_identifier)//port_identifier is the user defined name to differentiate the imp ports |
defining ports with the name _port_a and _port_b
`uvm_analysis_imp_decl(_port_a)`uvm_analysis_imp_decl(_port_b) |
2. Declare the analysis ports
uvm_analysis_imp<> #(t,T) port_name; |
declaring two ports using the above syntax,
uvm_analysis_imp_port_a #(transaction,component_b) analysis_imp_a; uvm_analysis_imp_port_b #(transaction,component_b) analysis_imp_b; |
3. Implement the write methods for each port,
function void write_port_identifier; |
Implementing write methods with the above syntax,
Method for analysis_imp_a
virtual function void write_port_a(transaction trans); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Inside write_port_a method. Received trans On Analysis Imp Port"),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Printing trans, \n %s",trans.sprint()),UVM_LOW)endfunction |
Method for analysis_imp_b
virtual function void write_port_b(transaction trans); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Inside write_port_b method. Received trans On Analysis Imp Port"),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Printing trans, \n %s",trans.sprint()),UVM_LOW)endfunction |
Complete comp_b code,
`uvm_analysis_imp_decl(_port_a)`uvm_analysis_imp_decl(_port_b)class component_b extends uvm_component; transaction trans; uvm_analysis_imp_port_a #(transaction,component_b) analysis_imp_a; uvm_analysis_imp_port_b #(transaction,component_b) analysis_imp_b; `uvm_component_utils(component_b) //--------------------------------------- // Constructor //--------------------------------------- function new(string name, uvm_component parent); super.new(name, parent); analysis_imp_a = new("analysis_imp_a", this); analysis_imp_b = new("analysis_imp_b", this); endfunction : new //--------------------------------------- // Analysis port write method //--------------------------------------- virtual function void write_port_a(transaction trans); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Inside write_port_a method. Recived trans On Analysis Imp Port"),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Printing trans, \n %s", trans.sprint()),UVM_LOW) endfunction //--------------------------------------- // Analysis port write method //--------------------------------------- virtual function void write_port_b(transaction trans); `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Inside write_port_b method. Recived trans On Analysis Imp Port"),UVM_LOW) `uvm_info(get_type_name(),$sformatf(" Printing trans, \n %s", trans.sprint()),UVM_LOW) endfunction endclass : component_b |
Connecting Analysis port with the imp_ports in env
function void connect_phase(uvm_phase phase); //Connecting analysis_port to imp_ports comp_a.analysis_port.connect(comp_b.analysis_imp_a); comp_a.analysis_port.connect(comp_b.analysis_imp_b);endfunction : connect_phase |
