pure virtual function void order( ref uvm_reg_bus_op q[$] )
the order() function may reorder the sequence of bus transactions produced by a single uvm_reg transaction (read/write). This can be used in scenarios when the register width differs from the bus width and one register access results in a series of bus transactions. the first item (0) of the queue will be the first bus transaction (the last($) will be the final transaction
Address map abstraction class
This class represents an address map. An address map is a collection of registers and memories accessible via a specific physical interface. Address maps can be composed into higher-level address maps.
Address maps are created using the uvm_reg_block::create_map() method.

static function uvm_reg_map backdoor()
Return the backdoor pseudo-map singleton
This pseudo-map is used to specify or configure the backdoor instead of a real address map.
function void configure( uvm_reg_block parent, uvm_reg_addr_t base_addr, int unsigned n_bytes, uvm_endianness_e endian, bit byte_addressing = 1 )
Instance-specific configuration
Configures this map with the following properties.
| parent | the block in which this map is created and applied |
| base_addr | the base address for this map. All registers, memories, and sub-blocks will be at offsets to this address |
| n_bytes | the byte-width of the bus on which this map is used |
| endian | the endian format. See uvm_endianness_e for possible values |
| byte_addressing | specifies whether the address increment is on a per-byte basis. For example, consecutive memory locations with ~n_bytes~=4 (32-bit bus) are 4 apart: 0, 4, 8, and so on. Default is TRUE. |
virtual function void add_reg ( uvm_reg rg, uvm_reg_addr_t offset, string rights = "RW", bit unmapped = 0, uvm_reg_frontdoor frontdoor = null )
Add a register
Add the specified register instance rg to this address map.
The register is located at the specified address offset from this maps configured base address.
The rights specify the register’s accessibility via this map. Valid values are “RW”, “RO”, and “WO”. Whether a register field can be read or written depends on both the field’s configured access policy (see uvm_reg_field::configure and the register’s rights in the map being used to access the field.
The number of consecutive physical addresses occupied by the register depends on the width of the register and the number of bytes in the physical interface corresponding to this address map.
If unmapped is TRUE, the register does not occupy any physical addresses and the base address is ignored. Unmapped registers require a user-defined frontdoor to be specified.
A register may be added to multiple address maps if it is accessible from multiple physical interfaces. A register may only be added to an address map whose parent block is the same as the register’s parent block.
virtual function void add_mem ( uvm_mem mem, uvm_reg_addr_t offset, string rights = "RW", bit unmapped = 0, uvm_reg_frontdoor frontdoor = null )
Add a memory
Add the specified memory instance to this address map. The memory is located at the specified base address and has the specified access rights (“RW”, “RO” or “WO”). The number of consecutive physical addresses occupied by the memory depends on the width and size of the memory and the number of bytes in the physical interface corresponding to this address map.
If unmapped is TRUE, the memory does not occupy any physical addresses and the base address is ignored. Unmapped memories require a user-defined frontdoor to be specified.
A memory may be added to multiple address maps if it is accessible from multiple physical interfaces. A memory may only be added to an address map whose parent block is the same as the memory’s parent block.
virtual function void add_submap ( uvm_reg_map child_map, uvm_reg_addr_t offset )
Add an address map
Add the specified address map instance to this address map. The address map is located at the specified base address. The number of consecutive physical addresses occupied by the submap depends on the number of bytes in the physical interface that corresponds to the submap, the number of addresses used in the submap and the number of bytes in the physical interface corresponding to this address map.
An address map may be added to multiple address maps if it is accessible from multiple physical interfaces. An address map may only be added to an address map in the grand-parent block of the address submap.
virtual function void set_sequencer ( uvm_sequencer_base sequencer, uvm_reg_adapter adapter = null )

virtual function int get_physical_addresses( uvm_reg_addr_t base_addr, uvm_reg_addr_t mem_offset, int unsigned n_bytes, ref uvm_reg_addr_t addr[] )
Translate a local address into external addresses
Identify the sequence of addresses that must be accessed physically to access the specified number of bytes at the specified address within this address map. Returns the number of bytes of valid data in each access.
Returns in addr a list of address in little endian order, with the granularity of the top-level address map.
A register is specified using a base address with mem_offset as 0. A location within a memory is specified using the base address of the memory and the index of the location within that memory.
virtual function uvm_reg get_reg_by_offset( uvm_reg_addr_t offset, bit read = 1 )
Get register mapped at offset
Identify the register located at the specified offset within this address map for the specified type of access. Returns null if no such register is found.
The model must be locked using uvm_reg_block::lock_model() to enable this functionality.
virtual function uvm_mem get_mem_by_offset( uvm_reg_addr_t offset )
Get memory mapped at offset
Identify the memory located at the specified offset within this address map. The offset may refer to any memory location in that memory. Returns null if no such memory is found.
The model must be locked using uvm_reg_block::lock_model() to enable this functionality.
function void set_auto_predict( bit on = 1 )
Sets the auto-predict mode for his map.
When on is TRUE, the register model will automatically update its mirror (what it thinks should be in the DUT) immediately after any bus read or write operation via this map. Before a uvm_reg::write or uvm_reg::read operation returns, the register’s uvm_reg::predict method is called to update the mirrored value in the register.
When on is FALSE, bus reads and writes via this map do not automatically update the mirror. For real-time updates to the mirror in this mode, you connect a uvm_reg_predictor instance to the bus monitor. The predictor takes observed bus transactions from the bus monitor, looks up the associated uvm_reg register given the address, then calls that register’s uvm_reg::predict method. While more complex, this mode will capture all register read/write activity, including that not directly descendant from calls to uvm_reg::write and uvm_reg::read.
By default, auto-prediction is turned off.
function void set_check_on_read( bit on = 1 )
Sets the check-on-read mode for his map and all of its submaps.
When on is TRUE, the register model will automatically check any value read back from a register or field against the current value in its mirror and report any discrepancy. This effectively combines the functionality of the uvm_reg::read() and uvm_reg::mirror(UVM_CHECK) method. This mode is useful when the register model is used passively.
When on is FALSE, no check is made against the mirrored value.
At the end of the read operation, the mirror value is updated based on the value that was read regardless of this mode setting.
By default, auto-prediction is turned off.
function bit get_check_on_read()
Gets the check-on-read mode setting for this map.
virtual task do_bus_write ( uvm_reg_item rw, uvm_sequencer_base sequencer, uvm_reg_adapter adapter )
