This is pretty big, wonder if anybody will notice?
Why am I doing this?
Because the elink has been haunting us for years. This way we will finally have a "golden reference" simulator model for those who insist on designing their own elink protocol (aginst my recommendation). This is equivalent to having a "bfm-bus functional model" for AXI. The spec is nice, but it's always up for interpretation. We have had some issues with documenting the protocol corretly. While we will fix the documentation, please note that the source code and design verification environment will always be the golden version. This is after all "the silicon".
For me and everyone else, it becomes part of the open source design verification environment to test the elink.
Enjoy....
