Running a Simple Evaluation about constellation HOT 7 OPEN

Can you try chipyard 1.9.1?

from constellation.

Update on this.

There was an issue with makefile which always took TestHarness as top-module. I changed it to EvalHarness, it worked.

However, I came up with new errors: /home/mypc/chipyard/.conda-env/bin/../lib/gcc/x86_64-conda-linux-gnu/12.1.0/../../../../x86_64-conda-linux-gnu/bin/ld: TrafficEval.o: in function netrace_traffic_eval_t::ingress_tick(unsigned long, unsigned long, char, bool, bool)': TrafficEval.cpp:(.text+0x15f5): undefined reference to nt_read_packet'
and few more undefined references to others as well.

Finally an error: make: *** [Makefile:232: /home/mypc/chipyard/sims/verilator/simulator-constellation.test-EvalTestConfig00-debug] Error 2

from constellation.

I'll try this right now,

from constellation.

I tried setting 1.9.1 from scratch. I got upto this point with no problems: Setup complete!
To generate simulator RTL and run metasimulation simulation, source env.sh
To use the manager to deploy builds/simulations on EC2, source sourceme-f1-manager.sh to setup your environment.
To run builds/simulations manually on this machine, source sourceme-f1-full.sh to setup your environment.
.
.
Then I got an error:

However, The env.sh was incomplete. So, I used the env.sh of 1.8.1 and made an env.sh file with necessary changes. Simulating a rocket core, hello world worked fine.

Coming to constellation's test harness, no errors.
Evaluation framework worked further than it was before(1.8.1) but I still got an error with the make.

This is what I got:

from constellation.

Sorry, it looks like the way verilator invokes g++ just fundamentally breaks the netrace headers.
If you have access to VCS, you can follow the VCS flow.

If not, then the only other solution would be to comment out all references to trace in the evaluation harness C++ driver, including the #includes on netrace.h.

from constellation.

Alright. What might cause on commenting out the references and netrace.h?

from constellation.

You would not be able to run the C++ evaluation harness with netrace-provided trace files as the traffic source.
