- Introduced for deterministic corpus framing, CRC checks, and regression evidence for NPU-P6.
- Added to validate NPU-P6 reference execution.
- Created a new RTL model for gate-level NPU transactions.
- Updated to instantiate and streamline the testbench.
- Enhanced with capability checks and added NPU-P6 reference contract tests.
- Modified to include in the source list and refactor rejection logic.
- Updated README.md to document new test scripts and their purposes.
This commit introduces a comprehensive set of unit tests for the NPU-P3 job execution, covering the DMA engine, job decoder, and core functionalities. The tests utilize Icarus and Verilator for simulation and include descriptor validation, fault handling, and various operational scenarios. Key features include:
- Descriptor construction and validation mirroring ABI 1.0.
- Detailed test cases for valid and invalid descriptors.
- Core testbench scenarios for various operations including convolution, pooling, and fully connected layers.
- Integration of golden model comparisons for output verification.
These tests aim to ensure robust functionality and adherence to specifications for the NPU-P3 architecture.
- Introduced for comprehensive testing of the NPU vector module, covering bias preload, lane-masked accumulation, and fault conditions.
- Created to implement differential tests for NPU compute-core RTL using Icarus Verilog and Verilator, ensuring bit-exact results against a numerical oracle.
- Added to validate NPU memory and patch packer functionality, including SRAM models and various packing scenarios.
