问题描述

我在 SystemVerilog 中设计并用相同的语言编写测试平台。我希望能够在模拟过程中编译我的设计并测试不同的功能,就像使用带有 e 的解释器一样。理想情况下,当模拟器达到某条线时,我会在模拟时弹出一个终端。

潜在的想法

我查看了 DPI-C,似乎我必须“导出”我项目中的所有任务才能从解释器中运行它们。但是,我不确定如何自动执行此操作,或者是否有更好的方法。此外,我不知道如何让 C 打开第二个 shell 让我输入 SystemVerilog 任务(我想运行)。

这是我的同事提出的一个问题,如果在编译一个测试平台之间不必等待 10 分钟,这会让生活变得不那么痛苦。

嗨,我为我的两美分提供了另一个例子。

示例 SV 代码

 ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
 //IMPORT FUNCTION DPI DECLARATION FROM C

import "DPI-C" function void python_sign_msg(string key_file_name, string msg_file_name, string signed_file_name );
import "DPI-C" function string return_string_in_c(string text, inout string output_txt);    
    

typedef class keycontrol_seq_handles;
//-----------------------
class keycontrol_predictor#(int PARAM_PLACEHOLDER = 1) extends pve_predictor#(keycontrol_seq_handles);//extends uvm_component;
………..
//////////////////////
//USE OF DPI

string output_c,output2_c;
output_c = return_string_in_c("This text",output2_c); 
python_sign_msg("file.txt","bla","blo");

PYTHON SCRIPT - TEST.py, 删除 TABS 非常重要!!!!!!

#!/usr/bin/python
# This program adds two numbers
import sys
 
if( len( sys.argv ) < 3 ) :
    raise( Exception( "Usage: test.py number1 number2" ) )
 
num1 = int(sys.argv[ 1 ])
print "sys.argv[ 1 ] : ",int(sys.argv[ 1 ])
num2 = int(sys.argv[ 2 ])
print "sys.argv[ 2 ] : ", int(sys.argv[ 2 ])
 
#the suma function definition
def suma( arg1, arg2 ):
    # Add both the parameters and return them."
    total = arg1 + arg2; # Here total is local variable.
    print "Inside the function local total : ", total
    return total;
 
# Display the suma
print('The sum using suma function of {0} and {1} is {2}'.format(num1, num2, suma(num1,num2)))
 
#num1 = 1.5
#num2 = 6.3
# Add two numbers
sum = float(num1) + float(num2)
# Display the sum
print('The sum of {0} and {1} is {2}'.format(num1, num2, sum))
 
 
#a dummy function definition
def multiply():
   c = 12345*6789
   print 'The result of 12345 x 6789 :', c
   return c

最后,您必须使用供应商流程编译文件。例如, Questa 1) 您使用 ccflags编译 C 代码并引入您要添加的定义。在我们的例子中,我们的 C 代码需要定义 PYTHON_PATH

vlog $DUT_VLOG_ARGS ${TB_DIR}/your_C_code.c -ccflags "-I/usr/include/python2.6/  -D 'PYTHON_PATH=\"$PYTHON_DIR\"'"

2) 在 Questa 中,如果你有 python,你必须调用vsim ,包括-ldflags '-lpython2.6' 类似:

vsim -ldflags '-lpython2.6'  -voptargs="+acc" -solvefaildebug -assertdebug -onfinish stop +UVM_TESTNAME=${TESTCASE_STRING}  yourtop_tb_top \

Synopsys VCS 1) 您使用 ccflags编译 C 代码并引入您要添加的定义。在我们的例子中,我们的 C 代码需要定义 PYTHON_PATH

#GCC in two steps for shared object
gcc -g -D 'PYTHON_PATH="'$PYTHON_DIR'"'  -fPIC -Wall -I${VCS_HOME}/include -I/usr/include/python2.6/ -lpython2.6 -c ${PROJECTDIR}/verification/PVE/keycontrol/tb/keycontrol_C_code_wrapper.c 
gcc -fPIC -shared -o keycontrol_C_code_wrapper.so  keycontrol_C_code_wrapper.o 

2)你做VCS阐述将python库与-LDFLAGS'-lpython2.6'链接起来

vcs -timescale=1ps/1ps -ntb_opts uvm -lca -kdb -full64 keycontrol_tb_top -debug_access+all+reverse  -LDFLAGS '-lpython2.6'

3) 您运行创建的模拟文件。您调用包含-sv_lib keycontrol_C_code_wrapper 的simv来导入 C 共享对象。

#RUN C CODE
./simv -gui -ucli +DVE +UVM_NO_RELNOTES  -l simv.log  +UVM_TESTNAME=keycontrol_basic_test -do ../../verification/PVE/keycontrol/tools/keycontrol_ucli_init.synopsys -sv_lib keycontrol_C_code_wrapper

另一个工具会有另一个流程。

在您的 python 脚本中嵌入 python 是一种比 FILE IO [b] 更有效[/b] 的解决方案。

如果您的 python 脚本从文件中读取输入和输出,那么从 Systemverilog 调用 python 的最简单方法就是执行系统调用

$system("python yourscript.py filenamein filenameout ")

您当然必须在 systemverilog 中写入您的输入文件并在 systemverilog 中读取输出文件以进行比较。

去模拟器的交互式命令行终端怎么样。这不是典型的 shell 终端,例如来自 unix。它是绑定到模拟器的供应商特定交互模式。在大多数情况下,它是由 Verilog 的$stop. 它是特定于供应商的,因此您需要参考您的手册了解所有功能,有些确实允许调用 Verilog/SystemVerilog 中定义的任务和功能。

听起来您不需要在一次模拟中运行所有条件。一次编译并运行多次策略应该适用于您的情况。SystemVerilog 系统函数可以检测用于启动模拟的参数$test$plusargs$value$plusargs参见IEEE Std 1800-2012 § 21.6命令行输入

// ...
int testid;
// ...
initial begin
  // ...
  if(!$value$pluseargs("TESTID=%d",testid)) begin
    // code if +TESTID= is not an argument
  end
  case(testid)
  0 : run_task_test0(/*...*/);
  1 : run_task_test1(/*...*/);
  2 : run_task_test2(/*...*/);
  3 : run_task_test3(/*...*/);
  // ...
  endcase
  // ...
end

然后编译一次并根据需要多次启动模拟。

% [compile-cmd]
% [sim-cmd] +TESTID=0
% [sim-cmd] +TESTID=3
% [sim-cmd] +TESTID=1
% [sim-cmd] +TESTID=2

最好的选择可能是使用带有某种脚本语言的 DPI 进行测试。例如,我已经看到这个工作很好:Python -> Boost.Python -> C++ -> DPI -> Verilog/SystemVerilog

它确实限制了您在测试中可以做的事情(将其作为两种语言之间的 TLM 接口,即仅在它们之间来回传递事务),但实际上这通常会迫使您使用良好的抽象实践。阅读 Python 中的“yield”以了解如何在 Python 和模拟器之间来回传递控制。
