Using Eplanner with UVM

rdalibor
rdalibor over 13 years ago
I am trying to implement checkers in my UVM environment from my vPlan and to map them in Eplanner. However, in the Eplanner I can only see the checks that I implemented as assertions in interfaces but not the checkers I implemented as assertions in my UVM monitor. Could anyone explain me how should I implement checkers in my UVM monitor in order to see them in Eplanner in order to be able to map them.

    I'm assuming that you're referring to UVM-SV since you mention interfaces. If you'd been talking UVM-e it's easy, just enable coverage of checks in Specman using the "collect_checks_expects" option.

    For SV, Incisive doesn't currently collect coverage of immediate assertions in classes, though it's something that we're planning to do. As such, it's not possible for Enterprise Planner to show you the SV assertions, since the simulator didn't put them into the coverage model.

    I recently wrote an application note that shows a fairly straight-forward way round the limitation. You can read it here and see the example code: http://support.cadence.com/wps/mypoc/cos?uri=deeplinkmin:ViewSolution;solutionNumber=11784374
