1 Experiences and Challenges of Transaction-Level Modelling with SystemC 2.0 Alain CLOUARD STMicroelectronics Central R&D (Grenoble, France) STMicroelectronics
2 TLM is useful SoC HW/SW design flow Standard Flow Spec Archi Design Fab Breadboard Software development System Integration System Validation SysAr Extension Software development System Integration System Validation GAIN Time
3 Users of SoC TLM Platforms Target users SW developers (drivers/firmware/appli) SoC Architects Technical marketing Enabled activities Functional software development Early architecture evaluation (Reuse of test data)
4 TLM a concept, not a language Logic MCU DSP ADC / DAC DRAM LAN I/F TRANSACTIONS C/C++/SystemC TLM - SoC Architecture UNTIMED & TIMED Logic MCU DSP ADC / DAC DRAM LAN I/F VHDL/Verilog SystemC CA (SIGNALS or NOT) SoC Micro-Architecture CYCLE-ACCURATE
5 TLM Positioning RTL SysC CA TLM (incl SysC) Speed (Hz) k 50k 500k Effort 1 /3 /10 ratio /50 SystemC: free public domain simulator Numbers provided as rule of thumb
6 Defining a TLM approach Need to formalise abstraction level Semantics Ex. System scheduling occurs at transaction boundaries or by explicit synchronisation Then define communication / synchro scheme Set of APIs with defined behaviour Avoid current proliferation of TLM dialects *Then* develop productivity tools
7 Background C models Cycle-Accurate CoVerification platforms: RTL models TLM experiment Timed models Transactional Level Modeling C functional model SystemC 2.0 TLM models
8 TLM Platform Our case SoC Model Developed by HW provider No need to model cycles and bus protocols Bit-true functional model of peripherals reg. etc Transactions to model communications l Data exchange between 2 system synchronizations Reuse of existing C models from architects Becomes SoC golden model for RTL
9 MPEG4 SoC Transactional Model Objective Enable application software development concurrently with HW design Users Used by MPEG4 IVT team for software development 6 months before RTL top netlist ready Used by SoC team for ARM software development
10 MPEG4 SoC Transactional Model Key benefits - Close to emulation speed - Debug facilities - Fast development (days to few mm) VHDL simulation x20 Cosimulation C+VHDL C transactional model HW emulation x4 x45 1 picture (coding + decoding) Simulation time for 1 image (coding + decoding)
11 Simple example of TLM platform TIMER Slave interface ITC Slave interface TRAFFIC GENERATOR (esw) Master interface MEMORY Slave interface SYSTEMC 2.0 TLM CHANNEL (Read, Write) STANDARD CHANNEL (sc_signal, sc_fifo, ) Master interface Embedded SW
12 #include "systemc.h" #include "common.h" #include "tac_prim_slave.h TAC_MODULE_SLAVE(timer) { // Timer interrupt signals sc_out<int> int_timer1; sc_out<int> int_timer2; // Timer internal registers DATA_TYPE timer1_value; DATA_TYPE timer1_load; // Registers init. void init_register(); Example: timer.h // Constructor TAC_CTOR_SLAVE(timer) { // Slave minimum service ( channel interface ) TAC_MINIMUM_SLAVE_SERVICE; // Timer main function SC_METHOD(Compute); sensitive << dummy_event; // out port init ( interrrupt ) int_timer1.initialize(0); int_timer2.initialize(0); // Module read access overload ( specific timer interface behavior ) DATA_TYPE ReadAccess(const ADDRESS_TYPE addr_in); // Module write access overload ( specific timer interface behavior ) void WriteAccess(const ADDRESS_TYPE addr_in,const DATA_TYPE data); // Timer main function void Compute(); // Registers init. init_register(); } // Destructor ~timer() { } };
13 Platform code - read by tool
14 Transaction Level Modeling Platform Software Developers Drivers Firmware Application Source Level Debug Timed TLM Platform Untimed System Architects Early Architecture Evaluation Transaction Visualization Key benefits Enable early functional software development Easy to implement (C / SystemC 2.0 functional models) Efficient simulation speed Source level debug Transaction visualization
15 Annotating models with time Ex. Transaction duration - Slave model Additional, optional parameter in serveread / servewrite Fixed value or complex, parameterised law Master duration between 2 transactions Insert wait() statements
16 SoC TLM debug and analysis Generate VCD files for signal tracing Generate database to record, visualise, analyse Untimed or timed TLM
17 The SystemC TLM challenge Avoid current proliferation of TLM dialects Differentiate only where required Adopt common core set of modelling guidelines promote interoperability
