【開發環境】 irun(ncverilog)無法dump fsdb波形問題解決方法

一、前言

　　本人使用IRUN仿真並通過調用$fsdbDumpfile函數生成波形時，IRUN無法識別$fsdbDumpfile函數。先總結解決方法如下，供大家參考。

 

二、問題

　　1. 在TestBeach中，調用以下函數生成fsdb波形文件；

//Enable dump fsdb
initial
begin
  $fsdbDumpfile("test.fsdb");
  $fsdbDumpvars(0,TB);
end

 

　　2. IRUN運行時出現如下錯誤：$fsdbDumpfile和$fsdbDumpvars 函數不能識別；

　　原因： irun未能正確加載debpli.so導致；

 

二、方法

　　1. 設置LD_LIBRARY_PATH如下：

　　　其中NOVAS_HOME為VERDI安裝目錄，注意此處CentOS為32位系統，64位系統需要直到的目錄；　　

#32bit CentOS

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$NOVAS_HOME/share/PLI/lib/LINUX:$NOVAS_HOME/share/PLI/IUS/LINUX/boot" 

#64bit CentOS

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$NOVAS_HOME/share/PLI/lib/LINUX64:$NOVAS_HOME/share/PLI/IUS/LINUX64/boot" 

 

　　2. 設置IRUN運行參數如下：

irun -access +rwc -loadpli1 debpli:novas_pli_boot -f XXXXXXX.f

 

　　3.設置完成后可正常運行；
