Generate VHDL, SystemVerilog, html, rst, pdf from an IPXACT description

Project description

ipxact2systemverilog ipxact2rst ipxact2vhdl

This software takes an IP-XACT description of register banks, and generates synthesizable VHDL and SystemVerilog packages and ReStructuredText documents. It ONLY considers register bank descriptions. The software does not generate OVM or UVM testbench packages. In the example/tb directory there is an example of how to use the generated packages.

Usage

pip3 install ipxact2systemverilog
ipxact2systemverilog --srcFile FILE --destDir DIR
ipxact2rst --srcFile FILE --destDir DIR
ipxact2vhdl --srcFile FILE --destDir DIR

Development

See https://github.com/oddball/ipxact2systemverilog

Testing the example file

make

If Modelsim is installed:

make compile
make sim

Note

From the reStructuredText file, together with http://docutils.sourceforge.net and http://rst2pdf.ralsina.com.ar it is possible to generate pdf and html files of the IP-XACT register bank descriptions.

Validation

To validate your xml

xmllint --noout --schema ipxact2systemverilog/xml/component.xsd  example/input/test.xml

Dependencies

pip3 install docutils
pip3 install lxml

pip2 install rst2pdf

Working in development mode for pypi

pip install -e .
python setup.py sdist
python setup.py sdist upload -r pypitest
python setup.py sdist upload -r pypi

TODO

  • A better testbench for the generated packages should be implemented.

  • More complicated IPXACT files should be added and tried out.

  • Add support for the SystemVerilog generator to have a register field of an enumerated type.

  • Use http://pyxb.sourceforge.net to enable dumping out the modified XML

  • Support DIM
