Defining Transition Coverage Items
|
|
|
Transition items are items for which value changes are collected in the coverage data. The transition coverage group item is used to define transition items. |
| |
|
|
|
|
Syntax |
| |
|
|
|
|
transition item-name [using coverage-item-option, ...]
|
| |
|
|
|
|
Where |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
Parameter
|
Description
|
|
item-name
|
A coverage item defined previously in the current coverage group.
|
|
coverage-item- option
|
An option for the cross item.
|
|

|
|
|
Option
|
Description
|
|
at_least=num
|
The minimum number of samples for each bucket of the item. Anything less than num is considered a hole.
|
|
ignore=item-bool-exp
|
Define values that are to be completely ignored. They do not appear in the statistics at all. The expression is a Boolean expression that can contain a coverage item name and constants.
|
|
illegal=item-bool-exp
|
Define values that are illegal. An illegal value causes a DUT error. If the check_illegal_immediately coverage configuration option is FALSE, the DUT error occurs during the check_test phase of the test. If that configuration option is TRUE, the DUT error occurs immediately (on the fly). Note that checking illegal values immediately has a significant negative impact on Specman performance.
|
|
name=label
|
Specifies a name for a cross coverage item. No white spaces are allowed in the label. The default is cross__item-a__item-b
|
|
no_collect=bool
|
When no_collect[=TRUE], this coverage item is not displayed in coverage reports and is not saved in the coverage files.
|
|
per_instance=bool
|
When per_instance[=TRUE], coverage data is collected and graded for all the other items in a separate sub-group for each bucket of this item. This option can only be used for gradeable items.
|
|
text=string
|
A text description for this coverage item. This can only be a quoted string, not a variable or expression. In the ASCII coverage report the text is shown along with the item name at the top of the coverage information for the item. In the Show Coverage GUI, the text is shown for each item.
|
|
weight=uint
|
Specifies the weight of the current item relative to other items in the same coverage group. It is a non-negative integer with a default of 1.
|
|
when=bool-exp
|
The item is sampled only when bool-exp is TRUE. The bool-exp is evaluated in the context of the parent struct.

Example
|
| |
|
|
|
|
1 <'
2 type cpu_state: [START, FETCH1, FETCH2, EXEC];
3 struct cpu {
4 st: cpu_state;
5 event state_change;
6 cover state_change is {
7 item st;
8 transition st;
9 };
10
11 post_generate() is also {
12 emit state_change;
13 }
14 };
15
16 extend sys {
17 cpu : cpu;
18 run() is also {
19 for {var i: uint = 0; i < 10 ; i = i + 1} do {
20 gen cpu;
21 print cpu;
22 };
23 };
24 };
