peakrdl-bsv 0.0.4

Export BSV description from the systemrdl-compiler register model

peakrdl-bsv Generating BSV Configuration registers from SystemRDL code.

Peakrdl plugin for generated bluespec rtl from system RDL file.

This plugin takes an input file.rdl and generates three bluespec files

1. file_signal.bsv This contains the module definition of each individual signal in the rdl file.
2. file_reg.bsv This groups the signals into their containing register module.
3. file_csr.bsv This creates a module with the registers, address decoding and S/W read write methods.

Installation and usage

Installing the application

pip3 install peakrdl-bsv

Generating BSV files from test.rdl

	peakrdl bsv test.rdl -o .

This can then be used in your design as follows

import file_csr::*;
...
ConfigCSR_file csr <- mkConfigCSR_file;

rule xyz;
csr.reg.signal.write(...)
endrule

The hardware side methods defined on a signal module are

• method Bool pulse() returns true when a 1 is written to the signal. self clearing.
• method Bool swacc() returns true when a s/w read or write operation is performed.
• method Bool swmod() returns true when a write or a read with sideeffect operation is performed.
• method Bool anded() Returns an AND reduced value of the signal.
• method Bool ored(); Returns an OR reduced value of the signal.
• method Bool xored() Returns an XOR reduced value of the signal.
• method Action clear() Set's the signal to 0.
• method Action _write(Bit#(n) data) writes data to the register.
• method Bit#(n) _read Returns the value of the register.

Example

To see an example

cd tests
make

This will generate the required files from the test.rdl file
