SoCFoundationFlow (SFF)

Setting up SFF

Bash:

Add the following lines to your ~/.bashrc file.

export SFF_ADMIN=<absolute path to admin directory of SFF>
source $SFF_ADMIN/setup_env.bash
export SFF_SIM_ENV=<Simulation Environment>

Tcsh:

Add the following lines to your ~/.cshrc file.

setenv SFF_ADMIN <absolute path to admin directory of SFF>
source $SFF_ADMIN/setup_env.tcsh
setenv SFF_SIM_ENV <Simulation Environment>

Running WAF

All files created by WAF will end up in the build directory.

Clearing the build directory:

waf distclean

Setting up your project:

waf configure --top_level=<top_level>

Running a simulation without the gui:

waf verify_source

Running a simulation with the gui:

waf sim_source

Outputting source and include file lists:

waf dump_source

The file dumps will be in a subdirectory of build. The name of this directory will be the name of the directory will be:

build/<dir_of_wscript>/work_dump/

Currently Supported Simulation Environments

The simulation environment dictates what tools will be used when simulating designs. The following list are values that can be set in the SFF_SIM_ENV variable to choose the respective environment.

• incisive
• modelsim

The following environments will be supported in future updates.

• iverilog

Dependencies

The following tools must be installed for all simulation environments.

• Veripool Verilog-Perl
  • Requires the command "vppreproc" to be on your path

Incisive

The following tools must be installed for the incisive simulation environment.

Modelsim

The following tools must be installed for the modelsim simulation environment.

Iverilog

The following tools must be installed for the iverilog simuation environment.
