Function Documentation

AlwaysValidProducer()

channel_arbiter.AlwaysValidProducer

(

int

tag

)

Never idles: `valid` is tied high, so the only thing limiting the
arbiter's delivery rate is the arbiter itself.

ChannelArbiterListTestMod()

channel_arbiter.ChannelArbiterListTestMod

(

bool

pipelined_scheduler

)

Contending list producers -> arbiter -> contiguity checker. Message
atomicity is the property most at risk from any arbitration change, so it is
covered for both arbitration modes.

Definition at line 187 of file channel_arbiter.py.

ChannelArbiterThroughputTestMod()

channel_arbiter.ChannelArbiterThroughputTestMod

(

bool

pipelined_scheduler

)

`THROUGHPUT_NUM_INPUTS` never-idle producers -> arbiter -> throughput
probe. Pins the arbiter's sustained delivery rate: a scheduler which needs a
refill/turnaround cycle between grants shows up here as a throughput well
below one beat per cycle, while correctness tests stay green.

HostMux()

channel_arbiter.HostMux	(	int	num_inputs,
			mux_pipeline_levels = None,
			pipelined_scheduler = False
	)

A host-driven single-flit multiplexer: `num_inputs` `from_host` UInt(32)
channels muxed into a single `to_host` channel. `mux_pipeline_levels` pipelines
the selection mux tree; `pipelined_scheduler` selects the decoupled
grant-queue arbitration.

ListProducer()

channel_arbiter.ListProducer	(	int	src_id,
		int	length
	)

A module which continuously emits back-to-back list messages of `length`
flits tagged with `src_id`. `items` counts 0..length-1 and `last` is set on
the final flit. Always valid, so two of these contend for the arbiter.

TokenProducer()

channel_arbiter.TokenProducer

(

int

count

)

Emits exactly `count` zero-width (`i0`) tokens then idles: `valid` stays
high until `count` tokens have been accepted. There is no payload -- only the
valid/ready handshake carries information.
