VCS使用问题记录

本文作为vcs学习记录，不定期更新；

Q1:

使用vlogan deepfifo_pkg.sv -ntb_opts uvm

Error-[SV-LCM-PND] Package not defined
test/deepfifo_pkg.sv, 2
deepfifo_pkg, "uvm_pkg::"
  Package scope resolution failed. Token 'uvm_pkg' is not a package. 
  Originating module 'deepfifo_pkg'.
  Make sure that uvm_pkg is analyzed before analyzing other files that use 
  uvm_pkg.

A1:

vlogan不能同时编译uvm和用户程序，需要预先编译；使用

vlogan -ntb_opts uvm

vlogan deepfifo_pkg.sv -ntb_opts uvm

Q2:

编译程序后，运行simv

Error-[DPI-DIFNF] DPI import function not found
/opt/Synopsys/VCS2014/etc/uvm/base/uvm_resource.svh, 390
  The definition of DPI import function/task 'uvm_glob_to_re' does not exist.
  Please check the stated DPI import function/task is defined, and its 
  definition is either passed in a source file at compile-time, or provided in
  a shared library specified using the LRM Annex-J options at run-time.

A2:

这是vcs编译过程没有夹-ntb_opts uvm，加上即可

Q3:

VCS2016+Verdi2016:

在编译之后使用./simv -verdi或./simv -gui=verdi，打开后Verdi界面一直处于Running状态，SimCMD也无法输入， 如下图

A3：

这是LD_LIBRARY_PATH没有配置的缘故，使用

# 64位Verdi
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$Verdi_HOME/share/PLI/VCS/linux64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
# 32位Verdi
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$Verdi_HOME/share/PLI/VCS/linux:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

其中Verdi_HOME为Verdi的安装目录，linux64或linux根据实际决定；配置完成后，打开就可以正常工作：

Q4:

VCS2017+Verdi2017

现象为：Failed to invoke simulator;打开File->View Simulation Log，可以看到如下：

Command: /home/IC/Desktop/p9/simv -ucli +UVM_VERDI_TRACE=UVM_AWARE +fsdb+gate=off +fsdb+delta=2 -ucli2Proc -lca -l /home/IC/Desktop/p9/verdiLog/sim.log
