Description
I have two questions,
1. I want to measure the area of the various component on rocket chip ( L1, core, accelerator etc.) how can I do this
2. To build the VCS simulator
$ cd vsim
$ make
it shows the following error :
Error-[SVA-SSTINSC] SVA-system task in non-SVA context.
Attempt to use a SVA-system task in non-SVA context.
"/home/is/riazulhaque-m/Desktop/riaz/chipyard/generators/rocket-chip/rocket-chip/vsim/generated-src/freechips.rocketchip.system.DefaultConfig.v",
846: $fatal;
1 error
make: *** [simv-freechips.rocketchip.system-DefaultConfig] Error 255
Contributor guide
Research direction
Reproduce the failure by running make from vsim, then inspect generators/rocket-chip/rocket-chip/vsim/generated-src/freechips.rocketchip.system.DefaultConfig.v around line 846. Determine why the VCS build rejects the reported SVA system task, and document a confirmed way to complete the simulator build; the separate area-measurement question also needs clarification.
