ARM® RealView® ESL API v2.0 Developer’s Guide 2.2.12. CASIModule::casi

2.2.12. CASIModule::casi_clocked()

This function is provided for clocking the component to the default clock master.

By default, calling this function ensures that the model clock slave is registered with the default clock master of the model during the interconnect stage. Using this function requires that the function CASIModule::interconnect() is called for the model.

The longer version of the casi_clocked() function is provided for conditionally clocking the component.

virtual void casi_clocked(void)

virtual void casi_clocked(CASIPhase _phases, uint32_t _numOfTimes=0,
                uint32_t _ratio=1, uint32_t _offset=0)

where:

phases

specifies the phase to register the slave for:

CASI_PHASE_BOTH
CASI_PHASE_COMMUNICATE
CASI_PHASE_UPDATE

numOfTimes

specifies the number of times the component is to be called. 0 means the component will be called indefinitely.

Note

This parameter has been deprecated and must not be used in new code.

ratio

specifies the clock ratio between the master clock and the local clock to be used. A ratio of n means that the component will be called once every n cycles. It must be greater than 0.

Note

This parameter has been deprecated and must not be used in new code.

offset

denotes the number of master clock cycles to elapse before the component is called for the first time. Default is 0.

Note

This parameter has been deprecated and must not be used in new code.

Note

Conditional registration requires a more complex scheduling mechanism that can impact performance.

Conditional registration is only recommended for components that are only called occasionally. In this case, the simulation performance benefits.
