Format of testvectors required by the Buffer Controller

1) L1CTT data

The format is the same as that of  test vectors required by the FRC .

2) SCL data

For each CTT event above there should be two SCL events i.e. four 32-bit data words. The first SCL word should have a L1_Period (bits 0 and 3 should be set to 1) while the second SCL word should have the L1_QUAL information as before . The third SCL word (for L2 information)should have either L2_Reject or L2_Accept (bits 0, 4 and 5/6 should be set to 1).  The L1_BX and L1_TURN for both the first and third words should match the L1_BX and L1_TURN of the CTT event as before. The low 16 bits of the fourth word should be for the L3 Transfer Number.

An example of the SCL data for a CTT event with L1_BX=1 and L1_TURN=1 is as follows:
0x00010109            # L1_Period
0x00000009
0x00010151            # L2_Period & L2_Accept
0x00001234

Therefore, if there are n events in the CTT testvector file, then the SCL testvector file should have 2n events. For examples look at files cttdata_bc.txt  and  scldata_bc.txt .
