Writing Rules/Transactors

@@ -32 +32 @@
 If the VCI initiator can receive interrupts, the transactor provides an optional service of translation : When an IRQ is received on the TLM-DT IRQ port (by the interface nb_transport_fw() method)  this information is registered, and the IRQ is transmited on the IRQ CABA port by the behaviour() thread.

+= D) Target VCI Transactor modeling =
 All transactions received on the TLM-DT port are registered in a 2 dimensions buffer, indexed by both the VCI SRCID, and VCI TRDID fields. Each entry in this Pending-Transaction_Buffer contains a transaction status, a transaction time, and a pointer on the transaction payload. 
 As any TLM-DT target, the VciTargetTransactor component has a purely reactive behaviour : the behavior() thread is running only when a command is received, and keeps running until the last response to the last pending transaction has been transmited. When it is running,  it is descheduled twice per simulated cycle to drive the CK signal on the CABA interface.

 For both transactors, each entry in the Pending_transaction_Buffer can be in three different states :
-* '''EMPTY''' : No registered transaction.
-* '''OPEN''' : Command registered, waiting the response. 
-* '''COMPLETED''' : The response has been received

 The main differences between the initiator & target transactors are the following :
-* The Pending_Transaction_Buffer is larger for a target, because it is a two dimensionnal array, indexed by SRCID and TRDID. The target entry is simpler, because each entry contains only a pointer on the transaction payload.
-* The behavior() thread is always runable for an initiator purely reactive for a target : It is not runable when the Pending_Transaction_Buffer is empty.
