发明名称 Firmware and hardware verification using Opcode comparison
摘要 A verification method is provided and includes randomly choosing a hardware executed instruction in a predefined program to force Opcode Compare on, determining an identity of a corresponding opcode from the chosen instruction and initializing Opcode Compare logic to trap the chosen instruction to firmware and creating firmware to initiate performance of hardware verification in the firmware and re-initiating performance of the hardware verification in hardware.

主权项 1. A computer program product for performing a verification operation, the computer program product comprising a non-transitory tangible storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit for performing a method comprising: randomly choosing a hardware executed instruction in a predefined program to force Opcode Compare on; determining an identity of a corresponding opcode from the chosen instruction and initializing Opcode Compare logic to trap the chosen instruction to firmware; and creating firmware to initiate performance of hardware verification in the firmware and re-initiating performance of the hardware verification in hardware.
