Error while starting the uvm_reg_mem_hdl_paths_seq.

Hi Taichi,

I'm able to run my RAL testcase by starting uvm_reg_hw_reset_seq and uvm_reg_access_seq. But when I'm trying to start uvm_reg_mem_hdl_paths_seq, the following errors are comming for every register.

I'm thinking like if the hdl path is wrong, then above two sequences should have created the issues. Suggest me, should I ignore these errors?

Generated RAL models do not support PLI based backdoor access so I think you can ignore these errors.

Okay, thankyou for confirming

Can I know in brief what this PLI is?

PLI is a specification of software interface.
By using PLI, you can access/update Verilog objects (e.g. reg variables) from oher programing langurage such as C.
By default, UVM bacdoor access feature is implemented by using PLI to allow hierchical access using string variable.

PLI is a useful feature but it may cause slower simulation runtime.
To avoid this problem, I introduce virtual interface based backdoor access feature.
