8.1.1. Pattern Generator and Checker

The pattern generator generates different data streams targeting the Symmetric Cryptographic IP core. Each data stream depends on the parameter settings selected in the IP parameter editor and the selected profile.
Before sending any traffic to the Symmetric Cryptographic IP core, the pattern generator performs these tasks:
  • Clears all internal states and registers by triggering the reset.
  • Ensures the AES/SM4 Inline Cryptographic Accelerator is in cryptographic mode before submitting any traffic into the Symmetric Cryptographic IP core. To ensure no errors occur, it polls the error log CSR registers at the end of the test.
  • Selects profile type and profile-specific settings.
