RTL Compiler command questions: pwd, multicore options, and program name

menime54

Hi,

We are switching over to RTL Compiler.  I am moving our scripts over to the RTL Compiler flow.

1)  When I type pwd into RTL Compiler I get back /  .  I need the path where I started RTL Compiler, similar to doing a pwd in linux.  Is there a command to get the full path and not just the path from where you started RTL Compiler?

2)  The following option is not available in RTL Compiler.  How do I set the multicore CPU option in RTL Compiler?

set_host_options -max_cores 2

3)  Is there an RTL Compiler command that is similar to the synopsys command:  synopsys_program_name

Thanks,


Stephanie

  • Hi Stephanie,

    (1)

    To determine the path in the unix hierarchy where RC/Genus is executing, the command is 

    lpwd  (stands for local pwd)

    pwd would point to the RC (or Genus legacy mode) internal hierarchy

    (2) 

    attribute is 'max_cpus_per_server'

    In addition, user can also configure attribute 'super_thread_servers' when using multiple hosts

    (3)

    I am assuming this does the same as

    legacy_genus:/> get_attr program_name /
    Genus(TM) Synthesis Solution
    legacy_genus:/> get_attr program_short_name /
    genus
    legacy_genus:/> get_attr program_version /
    15.10
    legacy_genus:/> info nameofexecutable
    /home/tools/15.10/bin/linux/genus

    hope this helps,

    gh-
