Memory abstraction base class
A memory is a collection of contiguous locations. A memory may be accessible via more than one address map.
Unlike registers, memories are not mirrored because of the potentially large data space: tests that walk the entire memory space would negate any benefit from sparse memory modelling techniques. Rather than relying on a mirror, it is recommended that backdoor access be used instead.

Creates an instance of a memory abstraction class with the specified name.
size specifies the total number of memory locations. n_bits specifies the total number of bits in each memory location. access specifies the access policy of this memory and may be one of “RW for RAMs and “RO” for ROMs.
has_coverage specifies which functional coverage models are present in the extension of the register abstraction class. Multiple functional coverage models may be specified by adding their symbolic names, as defined by the uvm_coverage_model_e type.
function void configure ( uvm_reg_block parent, string hdl_path = "" )
Instance-specific configuration
Specify the parent block of this memory.
If this memory is implemented in a single HDL variable, its name is specified as the hdl_path. Otherwise, if the memory is implemented as a concatenation of variables (usually one per bank), then the HDL path must be specified using the add_hdl_path() or add_hdl_path_slice() method.
Modify the offset of the memory
The offset of a memory within an address map is set using the uvm_reg_map::add_mem() method. This method is used to modify that offset dynamically.
diverge from the specification that was used to create it.

Write the specified value in a memory location
Write value in the memory location that corresponds to this abstraction class instance at the specified offset using the specified access path. If the memory is mapped in more than one address map, an address map must be specified if a physical access is used (front-door access). If a back-door access path is used, the effect of writing the register through a physical access is mimicked. For example, a read-only memory will not be written.
virtual task read( output uvm_status_e status, input uvm_reg_addr_t offset, output uvm_reg_data_t value, input uvm_path_e path = UVM_DEFAULT_PATH, input uvm_reg_map map = null, input uvm_sequence_base parent = null, input int prior = -1, input uvm_object extension = null, input string fname = "", input int lineno = 0 )

Read and return value from the memory location that corresponds to this abstraction class instance at the specified offset using the specified access path. If the register is mapped in more than one address map, an address map must be specified if a physical access is used (front-door access).
virtual task burst_write( output uvm_status_e status, input uvm_reg_addr_t offset, input uvm_reg_data_t value[], input uvm_path_e path = UVM_DEFAULT_PATH, input uvm_reg_map map = null, input uvm_sequence_base parent = null, input int prior = -1, input uvm_object extension = null, input string fname = "", input int lineno = 0 )
Write the specified values in memory locations
Burst-write the specified values in the memory locations beginning at the specified offset. If the memory is mapped in more than one address map, an address map must be specified if not using the backdoor. If a back-door access path is used, the effect of writing the register through a physical access is mimicked. For example, a read-only memory will not be written.
virtual task burst_read( output uvm_status_e status, input uvm_reg_addr_t offset, ref uvm_reg_data_t value[], input uvm_path_e path = UVM_DEFAULT_PATH, input uvm_reg_map map = null, input uvm_sequence_base parent = null, input int prior = -1, input uvm_object extension = null, input string fname = "", input int lineno = 0 )
Read values from memory locations
Burst-read into values the data the memory locations beginning at the specified offset. If the memory is mapped in more than one address map, an address map must be specified if not using the backdoor. If a back-door access path is used, the effect of writing the register through a physical access is mimicked. For example, a read-only memory will not be written.
virtual task poke( output uvm_status_e status, input uvm_reg_addr_t offset, input uvm_reg_data_t value, input string kind = "", input uvm_sequence_base parent = null, input uvm_object extension = null, input string fname = "", input int lineno = 0 )

function void set_frontdoor( uvm_reg_frontdoor ftdr, uvm_reg_map map = null, string fname = "", int lineno = 0 )
Set a user-defined frontdoor for this memory
By default, memories are mapped linearly into the address space of the address maps that instantiate them. If memories are accessed using a different mechanism, a user-defined access mechanism must be defined and associated with the corresponding memory abstraction class
If the memory is mapped in multiple address maps, an address map must be specified.
function uvm_reg_frontdoor get_frontdoor( uvm_reg_map map = null )

function void set_backdoor ( uvm_reg_backdoor bkdr, string fname = "", int lineno = 0 )

By default, memories are accessed via the built-in string-based DPI routines if an HDL path has been specified using the uvm_mem::configure() or uvm_mem::add_hdl_path() method. If this default mechanism is not suitable (e.g. because the memory is not implemented in pure SystemVerilog) a user-defined access mechanism must be defined and associated with the corresponding memory abstraction class
function uvm_reg_backdoor get_backdoor( bit inherited = 1 )
Returns the user-defined backdoor for this memory
If null, no user-defined backdoor has been defined. A user-defined backdoor is defined by using the uvm_reg::set_backdoor() method.
If inherit is TRUE, returns the backdoor of the parent block if none have been specified for this memory.
function void clear_hdl_path ( string kind = "RTL" )

function void add_hdl_path_slice( string name, int offset, int size, bit first = 0, string kind = "RTL" )
Add the specified HDL slice to the HDL path for the specified design abstraction. If first is TRUE, starts the specification of a duplicate HDL implementation of the memory.
function bit has_hdl_path ( string kind = "" )
Check if a HDL path is specified
Returns TRUE if the memory instance has a HDL path defined for the specified design abstraction. If no design abstraction is specified, uses the default design abstraction specified for the parent block.
function void get_hdl_path ( ref uvm_hdl_path_concat paths[$], input string kind = "" )
Get the incremental HDL path(s)
Returns the HDL path(s) defined for the specified design abstraction in the memory instance. Returns only the component of the HDL paths that corresponds to the memory, not a full hierarchical path
If no design abstraction is specified, the default design abstraction for the parent block is used.
function void get_full_hdl_path ( ref uvm_hdl_path_concat paths[$], input string kind = "", input string separator = "." )
Get the full hierarchical HDL path(s)
Returns the full hierarchical HDL path(s) defined for the specified design abstraction in the memory instance. There may be more than one path returned even if only one path was defined for the memory instance, if any of the parent components have more than one path defined for the same design abstraction
If no design abstraction is specified, the default design abstraction for each ancestor block is used to get each incremental path.

Get design abstractions for which HDL paths have been defined

Multiple functional coverage models can be specified by adding the functional coverage model identifiers. All other functional coverage models are turned off. Returns the sum of all functional coverage models whose measurements were previously on.
This method can only control the measurement of functional coverage models that are present in the memory abstraction classes, then enabled during construction. See the uvm_mem::has_coverage() method to identify the available functional coverage models.
