Support FSDB & SHM Waveforms #72
Conversation
Just learned from @kenhoberkeley that Xcelium prefers SHM output, which is a directory, so this method will not work. Will probably need to emit a key from the sim tool for the output waveform format. |
Edit: SHM as default from Xcelium produces |
Based on testing, also found out that Voltus reads FSDBs via it's internally-included copy of Verdi. Unfortunately, the Verdi version is a few years old (P-2019.06) even in the latest Voltus 21.12 so it is unable to read FSDBs from later VCS versions that made this switch to FSDB anyway. |
ucb-bar/chipyard#1072 and ucb-bar/chipyard#1102 added FSDB support in Chipyard because newer VCS versions now require FSDB output.
This PR selects the waveform format based on the extension. Now, the supported formats are VCD/VPD, FSDB, and SHM (default output of Xcelium).
Includes small bugfixes for PG view generation.
