Instructions
-
Run the following command:
For FASTSIM + PIPE mode:Note: The Enable PIPE Mode Simulation option in the IP Parameter Editor must be enabled before generating the design example.sh vcs_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS="" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-ignore\ initializer_driver_checks\ +vcs+lic+wait\ -full64\ -hsopt=gates\ -debug_pp\ +define+gdrb_GDR_PCIE_SS_DV\ +define+GDR_FASTSIM_AIB_BYPASS\ +define+RTLSIM\ +define+IP7581SERDES_UX_SIMSPEED\ +define+SSM_SEQUENCE\" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="" | tee simulation.log
Note: The command above is a single-line command. - A successful simulation ends with the following message,
"Simulation stopped due to successful completion!"
in the simulation.log file that was generated.
Note: To run a simulation in interactive mode, use the following steps: (if you already generated a simv executable in noninteractive mode, delete the simv and simv.daidir)
- Open the vcs_setup.sh file and add a debug option to the VCS command:
vcs -debug_access+all
-
Compile the design example:
For FASTSIM + PIPE mode:Note: The Enable PIPE Mode Simulation option in the IP Parameter Editor must be enabled before generating the design example.sh vcs_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS="" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-ignore\ initializer_driver_checks\ +vcs+lic+wait\ -full64\ -hsopt=gates\ -debug_pp\ +define+gdrb_GDR_PCIE_SS_DV\ +define+GDR_FASTSIM_AIB_BYPASS\ +define+RTLSIM\ +define+IP7581SERDES_UX_SIMSPEED\ +define+SSM_SEQUENCE\" SKIP_SIM=1
Note: The command above is a single-line command. - Start the simulation in interactive mode:
simv -gui &
