This is only applicable if the block contains regwen and locakable CSRs.

V2 long_msg hmac_long_msg

Long_msg test is based on the smoke test. The message length is between 0 and 10,000 bytes.

V2 test_vectors hmac_test_sha_vectors
hmac_test_hmac_vectors

From NIST and IETF websites, this test intends to use HMAC and SHA test vectors to check if the reference model predicts correct data, and check if DUT returns correct data.

V2 burst_wr hmac_burst_wr

Burst_wr test is based on the long_msg test. The test intends to test burst write a pre-defined size of message without any status or interrupt checking.

V2 datapath_stress hmac_datapath_stress

Datapath_stress test is based on the long_msg test. It enabled HMAC and message length is set to N*64+1 in order to stress the datapath.

This error case runs sequences that will cause interrupt bit hmac_err to set. This sequence includes:

  • Write msg_fifo or set hash_start when sha is disabled
  • Update secret key when hash is in process
  • Set hash_start when hash is active
  • Write msg before hash_start is set

  • Before entering HMAC secret keys. This scenario represents wiping secrets when HMAC is idle.
  • Before issuing HMAC start command. This scenario represents wiping secrets when HMAC entered secret keys.
  • Before issuing HMAC process command. This scenario represents wiping secrets when HMAC is streaming in message data.
  • Before HMAC finishes hashing process. This scenario represents wiping secrets when HMAC is hashing messages and keys. Checks: The scoreboard will check if digest data are corrupted.

Stress_all test is a random mix of all the test above except csr tests.

V2 alert_test hmac_alert_test

Verify common alert_test CSR that allows SW to mock-inject alert requests.

  • Enable a random set of alert requests by writing random value to alert_test CSR.
  • Check each alert_tx.alert_p pin to verify that only the requested alerts are triggered.
  • During alert_handshakes, write alert_test CSR again to verify that: If alert_test writes to current ongoing alert handshake, the alert_test request will be ignored. If alert_test writes to current idle alert handshake, a new alert_handshake should be triggered.

regwen_val_when_new_value_written_cg

Cover each lockable reg field with these 2 cases:

  • When regwen = 1, a different value is written to the lockable CSR field, and a read occurs after that.
  • When regwen = 0, a different value is written to the lockable CSR field, and a read occurs after that.

This is only applicable if the block contains regwen and locakable CSRs.

status_cg

Covers the status bits below and cross them with different configurations above:

  • fifo_empty
  • fifo_full
  • fifo_depth
tl_errors_cg

Cover the following error cases on TL-UL bus:

  • TL-UL protocol error cases.
  • OpenTitan defined error cases, refer to testpoint tl_d_illegal_access.
tl_intg_err_cg

Cover all kinds of integrity errors (command, data or both) and cover number of error bits on each integrity check.

Cover the kinds of integrity errors with byte enabled write on memory if applicable: Some memories store the integrity values. When there is a subword write, design re-calculate the integrity with full word data and update integrity in the memory. This coverage ensures that memory byte write has been issued and the related design logic has been verfied.
