3.6.1.1.3. VCS* MX Simulator

Perform the following steps to execute the simulation via a command line:

  1. Go to the simulation working directory:

    cd <my_design>/pcie_ss_ed_tb/pcie_ss_ed_tb/sim/synopsys/vcsmx.

  2. Execute the following command:

    sh run_vcsmx.sh

  3. A successful simulation includes the following message: "Simulation stopped due to successful completion!"
Note: To run a simulation in interactive mode, use the following steps: (If you have already generated a simv executable in non-interactive mode, you need to delete the simv file and simv.diadir directory).
  1. Execute the following command:

    sh vcsmx_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS="+define+rnrb_one_lib_RNR_OVERCLK_FASTSIM\ +define+RTILE_PIPE_MODE\ +define+RNR_FASTSIM_AIB_BYPASS\ +define+rnrb_one_lib_RNR_PCIE_TOP_EQ_BYPASS_FASTSIM\ +define+rnrb_one_lib_RNR_PCIE_TOP_EQ_BYPASS_FASTSIM_H2H\ +define+rnrb_one_lib_RNR_FASTSIM_FORCE_PLL_LOCK_TIME\ +define+XTOR_PCIECXL_LM_SVS_SERDES_ARCHITECTURE\ +define+rnrc_one_lib_RNR_OVERCLK_FASTSIM\ +define+rnrc_one_lib_RNR_PCIE_TOP_EQ_BYPASS_FASTSIM\ +define+rnrc_one_lib_RNR_PCIE_TOP_EQ_BYPASS_FASTSIM_H2H\ +define+rnrc_one_lib_RNR_FASTSIM_FORCE_PLL_LOCK_TIME\ +define+XTOR_PCIECXL_LM_SVS_SERDES_ARCHITECTURE" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="" TOP_LEVEL_NAME="pcie_ss_ed_sim_tb.pcie_ss_ed_sim_tb" SKIP_SIM=1 | tee simulation.log

  2. Start the simulation in interactive mode:

    simv -gui &
