7.3.1. Simulation Testbench Flow for Single Instance with SyncE
The testbench executes the following activities in MAC mode:
- Assert global reset (i_rst_n) to reset the GTS Ethernet Intel® FPGA Hard IP.
- Wait until reset acknowledgment. The o_rst_ack_n signal goes low.
- Deassert the global reset.
- Wait until o_tx_lanes_stable bit is set to 1, indicating TX path is ready.
- Wait until o_rx_pcs_ready bit is set to 1, indicating RX path is ready.
- Instruct packet client to transmit data. Write 0x1 to bit 0 of hardware packet client control hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00 to start the packet generator.
- Read RX packet data information from the following registers.
- Set snapshot enable bit to read the RX packet statistics (set bit 6 of hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00 to 1’b1).
- 0x38/0x3C: RX start of packet counter (LSB/MSB)
- 0x40/0x44: RX end of packet counter (LSB/MSB)
- 0x48/0x4C: RX error counter (LSB/MSB)
- Disable snapshot bit (set bit 6 of hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00 to 1'b0).
- Read TX packet data information from the following registers:
- Set snapshot enable bit to read the TX packet statistics (set bit 6 of hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00 to 1’b1).
- 0x20/0x24: TX start of packet counter (LSB/MSB)
- 0x28/0x2C: TX end of packet counter (LSB/MSB)
- 0x30/0x34: TX error counter (LSB/MSB)
- Disable snapshot bit (set bit 6 of hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00 to 1'b0).
- Compare read counters to ensure 16 packets were sent and received.
- Instruct packet client to stop data transmission and clear the counters by writing 0x100 (clear bit 0 and set bit 8) of hardware packet client control hw_pc_ctrl register 0x00.
- Perform Avalon® memory-mapped interface test. Write and read the following Ethernet IP registers.
- 0x104: Scratch register
- 0x108: IP soft reset register
- 0x014: Lower 32 bits of TX MAC Source address Register
- 0x018: Upper 16 bits of TX MAC Source address Register
- 0x01C: Max RX frame size register
- Perform Avalon® memory-mapped interface 2 test. Write and read transceiver registers.
