execute_transaction()

This procedure executes a master transaction that is uniquely identified by the transaction_id
argument previously created by the

create_master_transaction()

procedure. A transaction can

be blocking (default) or nonblocking, based on the setting of the transaction operation_mode
field.

It calls the

execute_transfer()

procedure for each transfer within a packet, with the number of

transfers defined by the transaction burst_length field.

Example

-- Create a master transaction containing 3 transfers
-- Creation returns tr_id to identify the transaction.
create_master_transaction(3, tr_id, bfm_index,
axi4stream_tr_if_0(bfm_index));

-- Set the ID to 1 for this transaction
set_id(1, tr_id, bfm_index, axi4stream_tr_if_0(bfm_index));

-- Execute the tr_id transaction.
execute_transaction(tr_id, bfm_index, axi4stream_tr_if_0(bfm_index));
