File Name

Description

avalon_bfm_wrapper.sv

A wrapper for the Avalon BFMs that the avalon_driver.sv file
uses.

avalon_driver.sv

A SystemVerilog HDL driver that utilizes the BFMs to exercise
the transmit and receive path, and access the Avalon-MM
interface.

avalon_if_params_pkg.sv

A SystemVerilog HDL testbench that contains parameters to
configure the BFMs. Because the configuration is specific to
the DUT, you must not change the contents of this file.

avalon_st_eth_packet_monitor.sv

A SystemVerilog HDL testbench that monitors the Avalon-ST
transmit and receive interfaces.

eth_mac_frame.sv

A SystemVerilog HDL class that defines the Ethernet frames.
The avalon_driver.sv file uses this class.

eth_register_map_params_pkg.sv

A SystemVerilog HDL package that maps addresses to the
Avalon-MM control registers.

tb_run.tcl

A Tcl script that starts a simulation session in the ModelSim
simulation software. Not applicable for Stratix V design.

tb_run_sv.tcl

A Tcl script that starts a simulation session in the ModelSim
simulation software for Stratix V design only.

tb.sv

The top-level testbench file. This file includes the customized
10GbE MAC which is the device under test (DUT), a client
packet generator, and a client packet monitor along with
other logic blocks. Not applicable for Stratix V design.

tb_sv.sv

The top-level testbench file for Stratix V design only. This file
includes the customized 10GbE MAC which is the device
under test (DUT), a client packet generator, and a client
packet monitor along with other logic blocks.

wave.do

A signal tracing macro script to be used with the ModelSim
simulation software to display testbench signals.
