RE: [sv-ac] Porposal assertion action control tasks

Hi Manisha,

2 comments:

1) The on/off should NOT affect currently running (in-flight)
assertions. Note that the asserton/off tasks do not, so we need to be
consistent + it makes sense to be this way.

2) Appropriate VPI control/callbacks will need to be added as well
(clause 28 see the on/off tasks and corresponding VPI for reference)
for:
- scope control/callbacks (note: no levels in current API ... applies to
whole scope, no need to extend this... Too fine grain) [for on/off this
is the SysOn/Off callbacks/control]
- assertion control/callbacks [for on/off this is the Enable/Disable
callbacks/control]

Note the handle can be a "vpiCollection" so lists are covered in API.

Thx.
-Bassam.

Hi All,

I am including a proposal for controlling action block execution. Please
send your feedback. Do we need another errata on this issue or this
proposal can be added to the errata on disable iff (which already has
another proposal).

Thanks.
Manisha
