VCS MX and UVM

[krb]

Hi,

Trying to compile my mixed vhdl/ SV-UVM code with vcs. dut is in vhdl and uvm testbench is in SV.

I am using the multi-step analyse/eloborate method and have problem here.

1) vhdlan -full64 -work work -file ${vhdl_f} -l compile.vcslog

-- works fine

2) vlogan -ntb_opts uvm-1.1 -full64 -work work -sverilog -lca -f ${filelist} -l compile.vcslog

reports this error:

Error-[sV-LCM-PND] Package not defined

my_pkg.sv, 141

my_pkg, "uvm_pkg::"

Package scope resolution failed. Token 'uvm_pkg' is not a package.

Originating module 'my_pkg'.

Move package definition before the use of the package.

3) vcs -full64 -work work -time_resolution 1ps +vpi +vcsd +memcbk -sverilog -lca -ntb_opts uvm-1.1 +define+UVM_TR_RECORD my_tb_top -l compile.vcslog

-- didn't reach here.

How can I fix these issues. BTW the same code works in IUS/irun.

Is there a single step analyse/elaborate method for compiling mixed hdl ?

What is the -lcs option here, I copied it from one of the examples.

Thanks for any help

hi,

It is unlikely you will want to recompile UVM library everytime so the flow is designed for you to analyze UVM files once per project per VCS version.

Update your synopsys_sim.setup with the path to where you want to store your analyzed UVM_LIB

vhdlan -full64 -work work -file ${vhdl_f} -l compile.vcslog

vlogan -q -ntb_opts uvm-1.1 -full64 -work UVM_LIB -sverilog

vlogan -q -ntb_opts uvm-1.1 -full64 -work work -sverilog -f ${filelist} -l compile.vcslog

vcs -full64 -time_resolution 1ps +vpi +vcsd +memcbk -sverilog -ntb_opts uvm-1.1 my_tb_top -l compile.vcslog -debug_all

./simv +UVM_TESTNAME=foobar_test -gui

If you have any problem then please email vcs_support@synopsys.com

thanks,

adiel.

Thanks for the prompt reply and helpful suggestion.

A small correction for your suggestion, in case anyone looks at this thread for help.

The second vlogan should include the uvm src path:

vlogan -full64 -work work -sverilog +incdir+${UVM_HOME}/env/uvm-1.1 -f ${filelist} -l compile.vcslog

hi,

Nah you dont need the +incdir+blah, the -ntb_opts uvm takes care of it for you.

Perhaps you omitted the -ntb_opts uvm from the second vlogan.

thanks,

adiel.
