SystemVerilog probes · 20Vivado: not supported
set membership: x inside {1,3,[8:10]} and case (x) inside
Vivado: not supported. The open-source chain: all four stages pass.
| stage | today |
|---|---|
| rtl, simulation | pass |
| synth, synthesis | pass |
| netlist, the netlist | pass |
| bit, the bitstream | pass |
What does Vivado do with it?
Not supported. UG901 v2023.2 Ch.10 Table 27 (p.287): 'Set membership operator: Not Supported', 'Set membership case statement: Not Supported'; the same in UG901 v2022.2 Table 8-1. Whether a newer Vivado accepts it: unverified
What does the open-source chain do with it?
since #28 rtl: PASS: iverilog refuses the design, 'design.sv:3: sorry:' (inside expressions, not supported yet), and dewfpga sim goes on with 'design.sv:3: note [sim-from-build]' (the simulation runs on the design as the build reads it, 'read by yosys-slang, the second reader', written back as Verilog and compiled with the testbench and yosys' cell models), then 'PASS'; since #4; built by yosys-slang, yosys' own reader refused this code (the note in bit.log); iverilog alone refuses it, 'design.sv:3: sorry:' (inside expressions, not supported yet); bit: 'pnr ok: 3 LUT, 0 FF, no clocked paths, timing not applicable (full log: top.log)'; netlist: PASS, 'EQV SKIP: iverilog cannot compile the RTL, so only the testbench checked the netlist'
Which error pages explain the messages?
- sim-from-build: Not an error: iverilog refused a construct in the design, so the testbench ran against the design as the build elaborates it, read by the reader the note names.
What is the probe's code?
From test/sv/20_inside.
