Hi Jay and Francoise,

In the last SVEC face-to-face meeting I had off-line conversations with both

of you. Francoise mentioned a problem that has been solved with the way that

various simulators had implemented the read-write tf_synchronize() PLI call.

As I understood it there were two additional callbacks introduced so that

the existing simulators would be backward compatible while at the same time

allowing users to use the same PLI code with the different simulators.

 

Jay mentioned that there was a writeup on this and that the various

simulator providers had implemented this capability. I have been unable

to locate any documentation or references to this.

Could one of you send this out to the sv-ec reflector? I believe that this

information would be useful in the context of the discussion that is

currently taking place on the Verilog scheduling semantics.
