get_burst_length()

This nonblocking procedure gets the burst_length field for a transaction that is uniquely
identified by the transaction_id field previously created by the

create_monitor_transaction()

procedure.

Note

The burst_length field is the value that appears on the AWLEN and the ARLEN protocol
signals. The number of data phases (beats) in a data burst is therefore burst_length + 1.

AXI3 Example

-- Create a monitor transaction. Creation returns tr_id to identify
-- the transaction.
create_monitor_transaction(tr_id, bfm_index, axi_tr_if_0(bfm_index));

....

-- Get the burst length field of the tr_id transaction.
get_burst_length(burst_length, tr_id, bfm_index, axi_tr_if_0(bfm_index));
