Integrate AXI protocol checkers

Opened this issue · 1 comments

There is Xilinx IP that checks for violations of the AXI protocol on a bus: https://www.xilinx.com/products/intellectual-property/axi_protocol_checker.html

When designing a HDL core through SNAP it might be useful to insert this protocol checker on the action AXI interface (probably during simulation only).

Obviously a designer can do this inside an action design but I thought it would be a nice feature to have this integrated in the SNAP platform itself.

Considering integration of AXI protocol checkers for one of the next iterations
