60// DMI interfaces for getting and invalidating DMI pointers:
61//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
62
63// The semantics of the forward interface are as follows:
64//
65// - An initiator that wants to get direct access to a target's memory region
66//   can call the get_direct_mem_ptr method with the 'trans' parameter set to
67//   the address that it wants to gain access to. It sets the trans.m_command
68//   to specify if the initiator intended use (read or write)
69//   to the target's DMI region. The initiator is responsible for calling the
70//   method with a freshly initialized tlm_dmi object either by using a newly
71//   constructed object, or by calling an existing object's init() method.
72// - Although a reference to a complete 'TRANS' type is passed to the get_
73//   direct_mem_ptr call, only the address command, and extension fields are of
74//   interest in most cases.
75// - Read and write ranges are not necessarily identical. If they are, a target
76//   can specify that the range is valid for all accesses with the tlm_data
77//   m_type attribute in the.
78// - The interconnect, if any, needs to decode the address and forward the
79//   call to the corresponding target. It needs to handle the address exactly
80//   as the target would expect on a transaction call, e.g. mask the address
81//   according to the target's address width.
82// - If the target supports DMI access for the given address, it sets the
83//   data fields in the DMI struct and returns true.
84// - If a target does not support DMI access it needs to return false.
85//   The target can either set the correct address range in the DMI struct
86//   to indicate the memory region where DMI is disallowed, or it can specify
87//   the complete address range if it doesn't know it's memory range. In this
88//   case the interconnect is responsible for clipping the address range to
89//   the correct range that the target serves.
90// - The interconnect must always translate the addresses to the initiator's
91//   address space. This must be the inverse operation of what the
92//   interconnect needed to do when forwarding the call. In case the
93//   component wants to change any member of the tlm_dmi object, e.g. for
94//   its own latency to the target's latency, it must only do so *after* the
95//   target has been called. The target is always allowed to overwrite all
96//   values in the tlm_dmi object.
97// - In case the slave returned with an invalid region the bus/interconnect
98//   must fill in the complete address region for the particular slave in the
99//   DMI data structure.
100//
101// DMI hint optimization:
102//
103// Initiators may use the DMI hint in the tlm_generic_payload to avoid
104// unnecessary DMI attempts. The recommended sequence of interface
105// method calls would be:
106//
107// - The initiator first tries to check if it has a valid DMI region for the
108//   address that it wants to access next.
109// - If not, it performs a normal transaction.
110// - If the DMI hint in this transaction is true, the initiator can try and
111//   get the DMI region.
112//
113// Note that the DMI hint optimization is completely optional and every
114// initiator model is free to ignore the DMI hint. However, a target is
115// required to set the DMI hint to true if a DMI request on the given address
116// with the given transaction type (read or write) would have succeeded.

124};
125
126// The semantics of the backwards call is as follows:
127//
128// - An interconnect component or a target is required to invalidate all
129//   affected DMI regions whenever any change in the regions take place.
130//   The exact rule is that a component must invalidate all those DMI regions
131//   that it already reported, if it would answer the same DMI request
132//   with any member of the tlm_dmi data structure set differently.
133// - An interconnect component must forward the invalidate_direct_mem_ptr call
134//   to all initiators that could potentially have a DMI pointer to the region
135//   specified in the method arguments. A safe implementation is to call
136//   every attached initiator.
137// - An interconnect component must transform the address region of an
138//   incoming invalidate_direct_mem_ptr to the corresponding address space
139//   for the initiators. Basically, this is the same address transformation
140//   that the interconnect does on the DMI ranges on the forward direction.
141// - Each initiator must check if it has a pointer to the given region and
142//   throw this away. It is recommended that the initiator throws away all DMI
143//   regions that have any overlap with the given regions, but this is not a
144//   hard requirement.
145//
146// - A full DMI pointer invalidation, e.g. for a bus remap can be signaled
147//   by setting the range: 0x0 - 0xffffffffffffffffull = (sc_dt::uint64)-1
148// - An initiator must throw away all DMI pointers in this case.
149//
150// - Under no circumstances a model is allowed to call the get_direct_mem_ptr
151//   from within the invalidate_direct_mem_ptr method, directly or indirectly.

161// debug interface for memory access
162/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
163//
164// This interface can be used to gain access to a targets memory or registers
165// in a non-intrusive manner. No side effects, waits or event notifications
166// must happen in the course of the method.
167//
168// Semantics:
169// - The initiator calls the transport_dbg method with transaction 'trans' as
170//   argument. The commonly used parts of trans for debug are:
171//   . address: The start address that it wants to peek or poke.
172//   . length:  The number of bytes that it requests to read or write.
173//   . command: Indicates a read or write access.
174//   . data:    A pointer to the initiator-allocated data buffer, which must
175//              be at least num_bytes large. The data is always organized in
176//              the endianness of the machine.
177//   . extensions: Any extension that could affect the transaction.
178// - The interconnect, if any, will decode the address and forward the call to
179//   the appropriate target.
180// - The target must return the number of successfully transmitted bytes, where
181//   this number must be <= num_bytes. Thus, a target can safely return 0 if it
182//   does not support debug transactions.
