Summary
What's included
1. Coverage environment (
scala/verdi_coverage/,scala/test/src/UcieSimBackend.scala)UCIE_SIM_BACKEND=vcsswitches ChiselSim from Verilator to VCS with coverageenabled, via an implicit
HasSimulatorin the test package objects — existingtests need no changes. Default behavior is unchanged (Verilator).
run_verdi_coverage.shruns the suites, merges the databases per design, andwrites per-suite reports;
view_coverage.shopens a database in Verdi;area_summary.shmaps coverage per subsystem (logphy / sideband / protocol / ...).2. Sideband coverage closure (
SidebandLinkSerdesTest.scala)3. CDC fix (
SidebandLinkSerdes.scala)SidebandLinkDeserializerflagged the idleindication: the combinational
counter == 0output crossed the asynchronousforwarded-clock → local-clock boundary directly, so a glitch during a
multi-bit counter transition could be sampled by the local clock and falsely
clear the timeout watchdog. Registering it in the source domain confines
glitches there. Cost is one forwarded-clock cycle on a 512-cycle threshold.
