name: target_mode_arbitration_lost_interference
desc: '''
The DUT-Target should lose-arbitration under the condition of simultaneously acting as a
Target-Transmitter with another Target, and observing the conflicting value of SDA. This
is possible during read transactions when two connected bus Targets have the same address.
When this occurs, the DUT behaves as though it has determined it should NACK, then going
on to NACK (release bus) for the remainder of the transaction, effectively awaiting the
transaction to end.
This testpoint uses the TB to manually induce an arbitration loss by pulling SDA low during
the transmit-phase of a read transaction. Once the DUT-target has determined it has lost
arbitration, it should go on to NACK, causing the transaction to end. Once the Agent-Controller
sends the stop condition, the DUT-Target will return to idle, awaiting the next transaction.
Testbench
- Common I2C bus, with the following connected devices:
- DUT
- x1 Agent-Controller
Stimulus
- Enable Target-Mode in the DUT, and pre-populate the TXFIFO with read data.
- Drive a read transaction addressed to the DUT-Target using the Agent-Controller
- During the transaction, yank SDA low to cause the DUT-Target to lose arbitration.
- Await the end of the transaction.
- Clear the FIFO state, then stimulate a new transaction to test recovery.
Checking
- ACQFIFO entries for bytes before arbitration is lost are inline with normal expectations.
- Once the DUT-Target loses arbitration, the 'cmd_complete' interrupt is asserted, and
TARGET_EVENTS.ARBITRATION_LOST is set.
- The DUT-Target does not attempt to drive the bus until the end of the transaction.
- Once the transaction has concluded with a STOP condition, the final ACQFIFO.SIGNAL entry
is NACK_STOP.
- After clearing any fifo state and TARGET_EVENTS, the DUT-Target resumes normal operation
for both reads and writes.

- Common I2C bus, with the following connected devices:
- DUT
- x1 Agent-Controller
- x1 Agent-Target
Stimulus
- Configure the DUT and the Agent-Target to contain identical addresses.
- Configure each Target with different response data.
- Select randomized response data, where the start of the data component is identical
between both Targets, and the end of the datastream diverges.
- Use the Agent-Controller to drive a read transaction with the common address.
- After the identical-addressed transaction has concluded, disable the Agent-Target, and
stimulate a new transaction to test recovery.

- Check data integrity of the read transaction based on a pre-formed expectation of which
target should win arbitration.

name: target_mode_smbus_maxlen
desc: '''
The I2C ACQFIFO has been sized such that it can absorb a max-length SMBus message (a 255-byte
Block-Write) without software intervention.
This directed test confirms this use-case is viable by generating a stimulus message of this
size, while disabling any interrupt/polling handlers from interacting with the DUT. The
message content is checked by the scoreboard to be correct and complete.
