Abstract
Simulated interaction between processor hardware as part of processor functional verification includes, in an example, commencing a simulation in a simulation environment. The simulation executes a test case using a model of a processor core for functional verification of the processor core. It also includes monitoring progression of the simulation for a trigger condition for simulated interaction. Based on recognizing the trigger condition for simulated interaction at a point in the test case, it additionally includes changing an architected state of the model, where the changing directs the progression of the simulation, at the point in the test case, to simulate interaction between the processor core and another executing entity. Based on a determination to end the simulated interaction, it further includes continuing progression of the simulation from the point in the test case.
