RE: [sv-bc] interface port direction in modport

The two declarations are unconnected, so to speak. That is, there is no
requirement or need for the two directions to be the same; they are
declaring different ports. Other rules, such as multiple variable
assignment restrictions may prevent certain combinations of directions.

Subject: [sv-bc] interface port direction in modport

 

Hi,

 

Is it legal to declare an interface with a port with a direction and
then declare a modport with that port with a different direction?

 

E.g.,

 

interface i(input clk);

 

modport m(output clk);

 

endinterface

 

Thanks,

Shalom
