Problem Linking mixed vhdl-verilog env with specman

archive
archive over 18 years ago

Hi All,
            I am hoping someone can help me with this problem I am having:
1."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      RTL is vhdl, top level testbench is Verilog and verification env is specman.
2."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      I am using Specman 5.0 with MTI Vhdl 6.1f_p2 on Amd64 running linux.
 
My compilation & Link Steps Are:
1."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      specman –c “load top.e; write stubs –verilog; write stubs –qvh;”
2."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      sn_compile.sh –shlib –exe top.v
3."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      vlib work
4."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      vcom specman_qvh.vhd –f file_list.f
5."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      vlog specman.v top.v
6."; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">      specview –p “load test.e; test” –sio vsim –keepstdout –pli $(SPECMAN_HOME)/linux/libmti_sn_boot.so top specman
 
When I run this, all works well until MTI tries to load the libmti_sn_boot.so and it complains that it is not able to load the shared object.
·"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">         Is there a different shared object that needs to be loaded for Amd64?
·"; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal;">         Are the steps I am using correct?
 
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rahul

    Rahul,
         Are you using 64 bit versions of MTI & Specman? If so maybe you need to use a different libmti_sn_boot.so file. Look for "*64*" files inside Specman install dir.
