UVM提供uvm_barrier对多个组件进行同步协调，同时为了解决组件独立运作的封闭性需要，定义了新的类uvm_barrier_pool来全局管理uvm_barrier对象。

 uvm_barrier 可以设置一定的等待阈值，仅在有不少于该阈值的进程在等待该对象时才会触发该事件，同时激活所有正在等待的进程，使其基础进行。 

wait_for	Waits for enough processes to reach the barrier before continuing.
reset	Resets the barrier.
set_auto_reset	Determines if the barrier should reset itself after the threshold is reached.
set_thresh_hold	Sets the process threshold.
get_thresh_hold	Gets the current threshold setting for the barrier.
get_num_waiters	Returns the number of processes currently waiting at the barrier.
cancel	Decrements the waiter counter by one.

virtual function void reset (bit wakeup = 1)

       Resets the barrier.  This sets the waiter count back to zero.

       The threshold is unchanged.  After reset, the barrier will force processes to wait for the threshold again.

       If the wakeup bit is set, any currently waiting processes will be activated.

virtual function void set_auto_reset (bit value = 1)

      The default is on, so when a barrier hits its threshold it will reset, and new processes will block until the threshold is reached again.

      If auto reset is off, then once the threshold is achieved, new processes pass through without being blocked until the barrier is reset.

virtual function void set_threshold (int  threshold)

This determines how many processes must be waiting on the barrier before the processes may proceed.

Once the threshold is reached, all waiting processes are activated.

If threshold is set to a value less than the number of currently waiting processes, then the barrier is reset and waiting processes are activated.

41   uvm_barrier b1;
42   ...
43   function void build_phase(uvm_phase phase);
44     super.build_phase(phase);
45     c1 = comp1::type_id::create("c1",this);
46     c2 = comp1::type_id::create("c2",this);
47     b1 = uvm_barrier_pool::get_global("b1");
48   endfunction
49  
50   task run_phase(phase);
51     b1.set_threshold(3);
52     #20ns;
53     b1.set_threshold(2);
54     `uvm_info("BAR",$sformatf("set b1 thrd %0d at %0t fs",b1.get_threshold(),$time),UVM_NONE)
55   endtask
56 endclass

为了同步c1和c2而定义了b1,b1为c1,c2和env共享。c1和c2通过wait_for()来等待激活，env通过设置阈值来调控“开闸”的时间。
