uvm_reg_model——寄存器模型（一）

　　对于一个复杂设计，寄存器模型要能够模拟任意数量的寄存器域操作。UVM提供标准的基类库，UVM的寄存器模型来自于继承自VMM的RAL（Register Abstract Layer），现在可以先将寄存器模型进行XML建模，再通过脚本工具直接生产寄存器模型。首先来看看uvm_reg_model的代码，该文件用来保存Register Layer的全局变量和文件include。

除了声明了基本的寄存器模型外，还定义了一些全局变量和枚举的定义：

// Type: uvm_hdl_path_slice
//
// Slice of an HDL path
//
// Struct that specifies the HDL variable that corresponds to all
// or a portion of a register.
//
// path    - Path to the HDL variable.
// offset  - Offset of the LSB in the register that this variable implements
// size    - Number of bits (toward the MSB) that this variable implements
//
// If the HDL variable implements all of the register, ~offset~ and ~size~
// are specified as -1. For example:
//|
//| r1.add_hdl_path('{ '{"r1", -1, -1} });
//|
//

   string path;
   int offset;
