Is your intention to observe DUT register value do decide your sequence in the driver/monitor?
I am not sure why you want to pass the register map through config_db. If you want to have access then UVM RAL is the way to go.
But if RAL is not set up for you, and you quickly want to access a couple of registers, you can use the interface approach.
- Add those registers in the interface,
- do the necessary connections using ‘assign’ at the top tb. (given that you take care of VHDL datatype (register type) conversion to logic/reg [31:0])
- pass on the interface to the UVM_Component through uvm_config_db::set, so the component can retrieve it and can reads the register value.
