Simulator Configuration Guide for Synopsys Models

Appendix A: Using LMTV with Synopsys ModelsSimulator Configuration GuideStatic Linking with LMTVSynopsys provides LMTV in the form of dynamically loadable libraries for NC-Verilogand MTI-Verilog. This is generally the preferred method for using LMTV. If you areusing NC-Verilog and cannot use the Synopsys-supplied swiftpli shared library, refer tothe Cadence documentation for information on using the PLIWizard to build your ownPLI library. If you are using MTI Verilog, and cannot use the Synopsys-suppliedswiftpli_mti shared library, refer to the MTI documentation for information on buildingyour own PLI and locating it for the simulator. Synopsys still ships the files needed tobuild your own PLI. These include:●●●Edited copy of veriuser.c in the $LMC_HOME/sim/pli/src directory (see Editedveriuser.c File)LMTV object file (lmtv.o) in the $LMC_HOME/lib/platform.lib directoryC-Pipe object file (slm_pli.o), in the $LMC_HOME/lib/platform.lib directoryNoteThe C-Pipe is required for FlexModels and DesignWare Memory Models,but is not needed for regular SmartModels.Edited veriuser.c FileHere is an example of the edited veriuser.c file that is shipped in the$LMC_HOME/sim/pli/src directory. The edits that are required for Synopsys modelsare highlighted. If you build your own PLI and want to use Synopsys models, be sure toadd these highlighted lines to your veriuser.c file.#include "veriuser.h"#include "vxl_veriuser.h"#include "ccl_lmtv_include.h"/************************************//* extern PLI function declarations *//************************************//* ------------- cut here - section 1 -------------- *//* C-pipe interface */extern int pli_slm_post();extern int slm_mempro_handle();extern int slm_mempro_width_info();extern int slm_transport();extern int slm_transport_checktf();extern int slm_inertial();extern int slm_inertial_checktf();/* ------------- end section 1 -------------- */268 Synopsys, Inc.
