[sv-bc] RE: [sv-ec] query reagrding sequence method "triggered"

Hi Sarani,

 

reset ##1 seq1.triggered ##1 out is illegal according to the current LRM, since this method is used in your example in a sequence context. This syntax will however become legal in the coming LRM.

 

Regards,

Dmitry

Subject: [sv-ec] query reagrding sequence method "triggered"

 

Hi, 

According to LRM1800-2005  section 17.12.6 "The value of method triggered evaluates to true if the given 
 sequence has reached its end point at that particular point in time and false otherwise. The triggered 
status of the sequence is set in the Observe region and persists through the remainder of the time step. 
This method shall only be used in wait statements or boolean expressions (see 10.11) outside of 
sequence context or in the disable iff boolean expression for properties. " 

module top (clk, reset, out); 

input clk, reset; 
output[3:0] out; 
wire clk, reset; 
reg [3:0] out; 

always @(posedge clk) 
    begin 
        if (reset== 1'b1) 
           out <= 0; 
        else 
           out <= out + 1; 
    end 


sequence seq1; 
  @(posedge clk) 
   out[0] ##1 out[1] ; 
endsequence 

property p1; 
  @(posedge clk) 
   reset ##1 seq1.triggered ##1 out;  // Wrong syntax ???
endproperty 

assert property (p1); 

endmodule 

Some tools are failing but it is not explicitly written in the LRM that it is an error.

Regards,
Sarani
