2.3.1.3. VCS* MX Simulator

Perform the following steps to execute the simulation via a command line:
  1. Change to the simulation working directory: cd <my_design>/pcie_ed_tb/pcie_ed_tb/sim/synopsys/vcsmx.
  2. Execute the following command: sh vcsmx_setup.sh USER_DEFINED_COMPILE_OPTIONS="" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-xlrm\ uniq_prior_final" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="" TOP_LEVEL_NAME="pcie_ed_tb.pcie_ed_tb" | tee simulation.log
    Note: The command above is a single-line command.

A successful simulation will include the following message: "Simulation stopped due to successful completion!"

Perform the following steps to execute the simulation in interactive mode. Note that in case 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="-kdb" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-debug_access+all" USER_DEFINED_ELAB_OPTIONS="-xlrm\ uniq_prior_final" USER_DEFINED_SIM_OPTIONS="" SKIP_SIM=1 TOP_LEVEL_NAME="pcie_ed_tb.pcie_ed_tb"
  2. Start the simulation in interactive mode: simv -gui &
