Detailed Description

Some technical terms used in the embodiments of the present application are exemplarily explained below.

Embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

After the design of the target chip is completed, functional verification needs to be performed on the target chip, and whether the target chip can complete the function designed by a developer is detected. In this process, the target chip needs to be simulated, and the verification environment for the target chip is used to simulate the target chip. Much log information is printed during the simulation. Simulation refers to the reproduction of an intrinsic process occurring in an actual system by using a model, and the existing or designed system is researched through experiments on the system model, which is also called simulation. Wherein the model may be a verification environment for the target chip.

Taking UVM as an example, the log information in UVM includes levels such as Fatal, error, warning, info, etc. for representing the severity of different problems during simulation: fatal indicates that the environment has serious and cannot run, and the simulation is directly terminated; error indicates that the environment has a problem, but the simulation is performed, and the simulation result is failure after the simulation is finished; warning indicates that the environment has an alarm, but the severity is lower than Error; info is common information that can track and debug various information and data streams that occur in an IC verification environment. Among them, an IC is an integrated circuit, also called a chip, formed from a large number of microelectronic components (transistors, resistors, capacitors, etc.).

The UVM can set the log printing level of the components in the verification environment, and the types of information printed under different log printing levels are different. For example, the log print level may include levels of UVM_NONE, UVM_LOW, UVM_MEDIUM, UVM_HIGH, UVM_DEBUG, and the like. The level of uvm_none is highest, and the level of information is always printed, but may be only rough printed information, the information types obtained by printing are less, the uvm_low print level is lower than uvm_none, and the lower print level means that more detailed printed information is printed in the log, that is, the information types obtained by printing at the uvm_low print level are more.

In the process of verifying regression, more log information is printed so that the speed of simulation is reduced and the disk occupied by the simulation is enlarged, therefore, when the first simulation is carried out, the initial log printing level of the components in the verification environment is usually set higher, the regression efficiency is improved, and the disk consumption is reduced. If the use case passes, the verification environment does not need to be checked, and if the verification environment runs, log information of an Error or Fatal level appears, at this time, in order to facilitate positioning of a component with a problem, the log printing level is lowered to print more log information when the verification environment runs again. After the log printing level of the component is reduced, the use case is subjected to repeated simulation for the second time, so that more log information is printed, and the problem can be conveniently positioned. Wherein a use case is the definition and description of a certain coherent functional unit of a system or subsystem without revealing the internal structure of the system or subsystem. In other words, a use case describes a system function, and a use case describes a part of the whole system function, which is a logically relatively complete functional flow.

In a complex verification environment, such as a subsystem or even a verification environment of the entire chip, the object under test (Design under test, DUT) has many inputs and outputs, and the verification environment generally simulates all inputs and samples and outputs for detection, i.e. the verification environment provided by the IP provider for verifying VIP components, integrated subsystems or chip sub-modules is used for overall simulation, and the components of the entire verification environment are very large. In addition, since the setting rules of the VIP component, the verification component developed by the user, and the verification environment of the inherited module may be different for the log print level, (for example, the VIP component sets uvm_high as the log print level of the detailed DEBUG information, and the verification environment of the inherited module adopts uvm_debug or other levels as the log print level of the detailed DEBUG information), when the use case DEBUG fails, a great amount of log information is printed from other module components or VIP components when the log print level is required to be reduced for re-simulation, and in this way, the log becomes huge, the simulation efficiency is low, and the invalid information is much, which is unfavorable for problem location. Wherein IP is also commonly referred to as an IP core. IP core refers to the mature design of circuit modules with independent functions in the chip. The authentication VIP component may be included in the IP core. The circuit module design can be applied to other chip design projects comprising the circuit module, so that the design workload is reduced, the design period is shortened, and the success rate of chip design is improved.

In view of this, the embodiment of the present application provides a log printing method, which can run an authentication environment for a target chip to obtain a log control file, where the log control file includes log printing levels of a plurality of components. By updating the log print level of the first component in the log control file, the degree of detail of the log information about the first component in the printed log can be controlled, for example, the kind of information printed by the log can be increased. The log printing device can print the log according to the updated log control file to obtain a first log, and the detail degree of the log information about the first component in the first log meets the requirement of a user. The log printing level of some components is accurately controlled, the log scale is reduced, the disk space is saved to the maximum extent, the simulation efficiency is effectively improved, and the problem is conveniently positioned.

The method according to the embodiment of the present application will be described in detail.

Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a log printing method according to an embodiment of the present application.

The log printing method as shown in fig. 1 may include a plurality of steps among steps S101 to S103. It should be understood that the present application is described by the order of steps S101-S103 for convenience of description, and is not intended to be limited to being necessarily performed by the above order. The embodiment of the application is not limited to the execution sequence, execution time, execution times and the like of the one or more steps. The steps S101-S103 are specifically as follows:

S101: the log printing device runs the verification environment aiming at the target chip to obtain a first log control file.

The log printing device is a device with processing capability, which may be a physical device such as a server, cloud, or host, or a virtual device such as a virtual machine, software, program code, or container.

The verification environment (simply referred to as verification environment) for the target chip is used for performing functional verification on the target chip, and checking whether the target chip can complete the function designed by the developer. For example, the verification environment for the target chip may be mainly used for chip EDA front-end verification, where the verification environment for the target chip includes a plurality of components, and the plurality of components form a plurality of layers in a tree structure. Taking UVM methodology as an example, please refer to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a hierarchy of components in a verification environment according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 2, the components in fig. 2 form a plurality of layers in a tree structure, and fig. 2 includes a plurality of components, for example, the first component 1 is located at layer 1, and the seventh component 7 is located at layer 4. The UVM is a verification platform development framework taking a SystemVerilog class function library as a main body, and a verification engineer can construct a functional verification environment with a standardized hierarchical structure and interfaces by using reusable components of the verification engineer. UVM is formed by fusing previous authentication methodologies (OVM, VMM, etc.).

As one possible embodiment, the first log control file is obtained by directly running the verification environment by the log printing apparatus, and the log printing apparatus sets the log print level of the plurality of components in the verification environment in the first log control file. The first log control file contains component names of a plurality of components in the verification environment, a hierarchy where the components are located and a log print level of the components.

As yet another possible embodiment, the first log control file is a file formed by intermediate processing of a first file generated when the log printing device runs the log printing control component. When the log printing device runs the log printing control component, the component names of the components in the verification environment and the hierarchy where the components are located are printed in the file to form the first file.

The first log control file is obtained by intermediate processing, as a possible implementation manner, the intermediate processing includes: the log printing device filters components in the first file having a hierarchy of components below a first threshold. Optionally, the log printing device deletes the component name of the component and the level where the component is located in the first file, where the component is lower than the first threshold, or annotates the component name of the component and the level where the component is located in the first file, where the component is lower than the first threshold, to form the second file. The annotation is used for annotating and describing the program, and the annotated program code usually appears in the program source code and is not compiled and executed by the program. Therefore, the first log control file is convenient for the subsequent user to operate, and the first log control file can be operated more efficiently through the script.

Optionally, the first threshold is used to represent a condition that the hierarchy of components in the first file needs to satisfy. Wherein the first threshold is predefined or predefined. For example, the first threshold may be a value higher than α.

For example, the first threshold is a value higher than 2, as shown in fig. 2, the first component 1 is in a layer 1, the second component 2 is in a layer 2, the layer is lower than the first threshold, the log printing device deletes the component names of the first component 1 and the second component 2 and the layer of the component in the first file or the log printing device annotates the component names of the first component 1 and the second component 2 and the layer of the component in the first file to form the second file.

As yet another possible implementation, the intermediate processing further includes: the log printing device sets an initial log printing level corresponding to each component in the second file to form a first log control file. Wherein, the initial log print level is simply referred to as initial level.

Optionally, the setting, by the log printing device, the initial log printing level corresponding to each component in the second file may include the following embodiments:

embodiment one:

the log printing device sets the initial log printing level of the component whose class is the preset class in the second file to be highest. For example, the preset category is a VIP component provided by an IP provider, and at this time, the log printing device sets an initial log print level of the VIP component to be highest, and the information category obtained at the highest log print level is small. Alternatively, the same applies to the case where the higher the log print level is, the more the kind of information log printed is.

Embodiment two:

the log printing device sets an initial log printing level of the component of the category selected by the user for the category of the component in the second file according to the requirement of the user. The log print level includes a plurality of levels, and the higher the level among the plurality of levels, the smaller the kind of information to be printed is. For example, the user selects a category of "user developed verification component", the user's demand is to set the initial log print level of the user developed verification component to the highest, at which time the log printing apparatus sets the initial log print level of the component of the second file, the category of which is the "user developed verification component", to the highest, and the kind of information printed at the highest log print level is the smallest.

It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary examples, and that many more embodiments may be implemented in the specific implementation, and that many more embodiments may be combined.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of a first log control file according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 3, the first log control file includes a component name (also referred to as a component path name in fig. 3) of at least one of the plurality of components, a hierarchy at which the at least one of the plurality of components is located (also referred to as a hierarchy at which the component is located in fig. 3), and a log print level corresponding to the at least one of the plurality of components. At least one component is a component with a hierarchy higher than a first threshold value, and/or at least one component is a component with a category which is a preset category and/or a category selected by a user in a plurality of components. Alternatively, the hierarchy in which the components reside may also be represented numerically. Illustratively, as shown in fig. 3, the first component 1 (i.e., the component having the component path name of component path 1) is at level 1, the log print level is uvm_none, the second component 2 (i.e., the component having the component path name of component path 2) is at level 3, the log print level is uvm_low, the third component 3 (i.e., the component having the component path name of 3) is at level 1, the log print level is uvm_high, the fourth component 4 (i.e., the component having the component path name of component path 4) is at level 1, the log print level is uvm_none, the fifth component 5 (i.e., the component having the component path name of component path 5) is at level 2, the log print level is uvm_low, and 14/15/16/17/18 in fig. 3 is the number of lines of program codes.

As one possible implementation, the log print control component is added by the user in the verification environment.

As yet another possible implementation manner, when the log print control component is in the emulation operation, the verification environment checks that the log print control component does not exist in the verification environment, and the log print control component is added in the verification environment.

As a possible implementation manner, the log printing device instantiates the log printing control component in the verification environment, starts the log printing control component (the first file is generated when the log printing control component runs) before the task phase runs, compiles the verification environment to generate the SIMV executable file, runs the verification environment and obtains the first log control file. Wherein the SIMV executable file is used to parse the print level of the component of the non-annotated line in the first log control file. The parsing may be to parse the data of the file into an object, obtain information such as package name, application name, version number, etc., and may form the running file after parsing. In UVM methodology, each component needs to use a phase mechanism, and the phase overall can be divided into two major categories, namely a function phase and a task phase, wherein the function phase does not consume simulation time, and the task phase needs to consume simulation time. Compilation is the conversion of high-level language into a binary language that can be recognized by a computer.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating an exemplary log print control component in a verification environment according to an embodiment of the present application. The log printing device instantiates the log printing control component in the verification environment, and the mode has strong adaptability in different UVM verification environments and can be directly instantiated for use. Instantiation refers to the process of converting an abstract concept into a concrete instance. In programming, it is often necessary to describe an object by class, and each object is an instance of that class. This process is to create objects by classes, also known as instantiations. As shown in fig. 4, the log print control component is instantiated in the environment by the corresponding program code (e.g., the pseudo code "log print control component" in fig. 4 is instantiated in the environment "), and the log print control component can also be started in the environment by the corresponding program code (e.g., the pseudo code" log print control component "in fig. 4 is started in the environment"), 16 and 94 in fig. 4 being the number of lines where the program code is located.

As a possible implementation, the second log may also be obtained after running the verification environment for the target chip. The second log is used for indicating log information generated by the plurality of components in the running process, and the log information can comprise names of the components with errors, error types of the components with errors and error time points of the components with errors.

S102: the log printing device updates the log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to the first level to obtain a second log control file.

The first component belongs to the aforementioned at least one component. The first component may be any one or more of the components in the first log control file.

Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of a log print level of an update component according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 5, the log print level of the first component 1 (i.e., the component whose component path name is the component path 1) is updated to uvm_high, and the log print level of the second component 2 (i.e., the component whose component path name is the component path 2) is updated to uvm_low.

The log printing device may update the initial log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to the first level in the following embodiments:

embodiment one:

the log printing device updates the log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to the first level according to the first level of the first component input by the user. The information types printed at the first level are more than the information types printed at the initial log print level. Optionally, the first level is lower than the initial log print level, and the information printed at the first level is more detailed.

Illustratively, the initial log print level of the first component is uvm_none, and the user wants to update the log print level of the first component to uvm_debug, and the log printing apparatus updates the initial log print level uvm_none of the first component to the first level uvm_debug according to the uvm_debug input by the user. The information category printed at the uvm_debug level is more than the information category printed at the uvm_none level. Therefore, the user can conveniently and rapidly operate the first log control file, update of the log printing level of the problem component is achieved, operation is simple, and user experience is improved.

In one possible implementation, the log printing apparatus may determine an interested component, which is a component that recommends a user to adjust a log printing level, based on the log information recognition model. Optionally, the log printing device can distinguish other components of the related information of the interested component on the interface in a mode of font amplification, setting striking color, brightness enhancement and the like. The related information may be a name of the component of interest, a category of the component of interest, a hierarchy in which the component of interest is located, log information of the component of interest, and the like. Accordingly, the user may select some or all of the components to adjust their print level based on the presented components of interest. Of course, the user may not select the component of interest at the time of selection (i.e., the first component may not belong to the component of interest), and the present application is equally applicable to the case where the first component does not belong to the component of interest. The identification of the interested component can be intelligently obtained, the interested component can be a wrong component or a component focused by a user, the user does not need to select the interested component from a large number of components, the interested component of the user is automatically identified, the related information of the interested component is set up remarkably, the user can select conveniently, and the user experience is improved.

Optionally, the log printing device may input a second log obtained by running the verification environment into the log information identification model to obtain the identification of the component of interest.

In some scenarios, the log information recognition model may be trained from training samples. Specifically, the training device inputs the training sample into the model to be trained, and labels the interesting components selected by the user in the sample. The annotated data may be input to the model to be trained, which outputs an identification of the predicted component of interest. The sample predicted interested component and the corresponding real interested component are further used for training the model to be trained, the training target is to enable the sample predicted interested component to be as close to the corresponding real interested component as possible, and the log information identification model is obtained after training is finished. The training sample may include a name of the component, a class of the component, a level of the component, log information of the component, and a component of interest selected by a user, where the log information of the component is log information generated in the running process of the component, and the log information of the component belongs to the second log.

Further, the log information identifying module may further determine a recommended adjustment level of the interested component, where the recommended adjustment level is a log print level of the interested component adjusted by the recommended user. Illustratively, the initial log print level of the second component 2 is uvm_none, the log printing device inputs the second log into the log information recognition model to obtain the recommended adjustment level of the second component 2 as uvm_medium, the log printing device displays the relevant information of the second component 2 on the interface in a striking manner, and the user can update the initial log print level (uvm_none) of the second component 2 in the first log control file to the recommended adjustment level (uvm_medium) of the second component 2 according to the recommended adjustment level (uvm_medium) of the second component 2.

Therefore, the recommended adjustment level of the interested component can be automatically output according to the log information identification model, the log information identification model is obtained by training for many times according to the training sample, the output recommended adjustment level is the log printing level of recommending certain components accurately while meeting the requirements of users, the log scale is reduced, the disk space is saved to the maximum extent, the user can conveniently set the first level, and the user experience is improved.

It will be appreciated that the training sample of the log information recognition model also contains recommended adjustment levels for the user-selected component of interest. And inputting the training sample into a model to be trained, and labeling the recommended adjustment level of the interested component selected by the user in the sample. The annotated data may be input to the model to be trained, which outputs a recommended adjustment level for the predicted component of interest. The recommended adjustment level of the sample predicted interested component and the recommended adjustment level of the corresponding real interested component are further used for training the model to be trained, the training target is to enable the recommended adjustment level of the sample predicted interested component to be as close as possible to the recommended adjustment level of the corresponding real interested component, and the log information identification model is obtained after training is finished.

Furthermore, when the verification environment for the target chip is actually operated, verification regression is generally performed through each test case, and the log printing device can reserve log files of each test case, so that components contained in the log files corresponding to each test case may have different log printing levels. The training sample of the log information identification model also comprises log files of each test case, and the log files or the log files generated in the whole verification regression process are analyzed, counted and trained, so that the recommended adjustment level of the interested component predicted by the sample is as close as possible to the recommended adjustment level of the corresponding real interested component, and the log information identification model is obtained after the training is finished.

Optionally, when the verification environment for the target chip is operated, the log printing device may further call the log printing level corresponding to the component included in the log file corresponding to each test case to print log information, and more customized printing level may be used, so that the problem positioning is more efficient.

As yet another possible implementation, the first component may be a component that reports errors in the second log, where the component that reports errors is a component that generates log information at the Error or Fatal level when the verification environment for the target chip is first run.

Embodiment two:

the log printing device inputs the second log into the log information identification model, determines the interested component and the recommended adjustment level of the interested component, and adjusts the log printing level of the interested component to the recommended adjustment level. The related description refers to the description of the first embodiment.

Thus, the components needing to be adjusted can be intelligently identified, and then the log printing level can be intelligently adjusted.

Embodiment III:

the log printing device determines the component that reported the error in the second log, for example, the component that reported the error in the second log may be determined by script parsing the second log. And the log printing device updates the log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to a first level according to the error reporting component, wherein the first component belongs to the error reporting component.

The script is a pre-written program, the Error reporting is log information of Error or Fatal level when the verification environment is operated, the component name of the first component is the same as the component name of the Error reporting, and the first level is lower than the initial log printing level. The log printing device automatically analyzes the second log through the script to determine that the component with the error report is the first component 1, the initial log printing level of the first component 1 is uvm_low, and the log printing device updates the log printing level of the first component 1 in the first log control file to uvm_debug according to the script and the first component 1. The information types printed at the uvm_debug level are more than the information types printed at the uvm_low level. Therefore, scripting operation can be realized in regression, log printing levels of related problem components can be conveniently and flexibly controlled through scripts in places where simulation fails, log scale is reduced, disk space is saved to the maximum extent, verification regression operation occupies fewer resources, regression is more efficient, and simulation efficiency is effectively improved.

For example, the log printing device may also prominently display the components that reported errors, for example, by distinguishing other components by font enlargement, setting a conspicuous color, brightness enhancement, and the like.

Embodiment four:

the log printing device determines a first level according to the attention level and the initial level of the first component, and updates the log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to the first level.

Specifically, the log printing device determines the attention level of the first component according to the error type of the first component and the call times of the first component, and the log printing device determines the first level according to the attention level and the initial level of the first component and updates the log printing level of the first component in the first log control file to the first level.

The second log comprises log information of the first component, the log information of the first component comprises error types of the first component and calling times of the first component, the attention level of the first component is positively correlated with the calling times of the first component, and the level difference between the first level and the initial level is positively correlated with the attention level of the first component.

Optionally, the log printing device may preset weights of each component in the verification environment for the target chip, classify and count the components with problems in each regression, and for the components with high weights and high error reporting frequency, automatically adjust the log printing level.

For example, the initial level of the third component 3 is uvm_medium, the more the call number of the third component 3 is, the higher the attention level is, the lower the log print level is, the more the types of information printed are, the level difference between the initial level and the first level is increased along with the increase of the attention level, at this time, the log printing device may set the level difference between the first level of the third component 3 and the initial level of the third component 3 to be greater, for example, the first level is uvm_debug, and the log printing device updates the initial level (uvm_medium) of the third component 3 in the first log control file to the first level (uvm_debug).

It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary examples, and that many more embodiments may be implemented in the specific implementation, and that many more embodiments may be combined. The method is simple and convenient, convenient for user operation and capable of improving user experience.

As a possible implementation manner, the log printing device determines a log printing start time and a log printing end time of the first component, and the second log control file further includes the log printing start time and the log printing end time of the first component.

Wherein the log print start time and the log print end time of the first component may be user entered or automatically generated by a script. Further, when the log print start time and the log print end time of the first component are automatically generated by the script, the error reporting time point is located between the log print start time and the log print end time.

Illustratively, when there is a case report error in the simulation regression, the component in which the report error is the first component 1, the first component 1 reports the error at the simulation time of 300ns, at this time, the log printing device determines the log printing start time and the log printing end time of the first component 1, optionally, as shown in fig. 5, the log printing start time of the first component 1 (i.e., the component whose component path name is component path 1) is set to 100ns, the log printing end time is set to 500ns, the log printing start time of the second component 2 (i.e., the component whose component path name is component path 2) is set to 100ns, the log printing end time is set to 1500ns, and 70 and 71 in fig. 5 are the number of lines where the program code is located. The setting of the log printing start time and the log printing end time may be manually set by a user or set by a log printing apparatus through a script.

S103: and the log printing device reruns the verification environment aiming at the target chip according to the second log control file to obtain a first log.

The second log control file is obtained after the first log control file is updated. The log printing device does not recompile the verification environment when re-running the verification environment for the target chip. The first log is synchronously generated when the verification environment is rerun, and the first log is used for problem positioning by a user. The first log includes log information printed at a first level by the first component.

As a possible implementation manner, the log printing device reruns the verification environment according to the second log control file to obtain the first log and the target waveform. The waveform is a signal waveform formed by combining vector data, the position of rising/falling edges and an input voltage value, and is used for a user to locate a problem.

As one possible embodiment, the log printing means prints the log information of the first component at the first level when the running time of the verification environment is between the log printing start time and the log printing end time of the first component. Illustratively, the first component 1 (i.e., component path name is a component of component path 1) shown in fig. 5 prints log information of the first component 1 using uvm_high level when the verification environment is re-run for a run period of 100ns-500ns, and the second component 2 (i.e., component path name is a component of component path 2) shown in fig. 5 prints log information of the second component 2 using uvm_low level when the verification environment is re-run for a run period of 100ns-1500 ns.

Alternatively, when the verification environment is re-run, the log printing apparatus may run the first component using the initial log print level of the first component for a period of time other than when the run period of time of the verification environment is between the log print start time and the log print end time of the first component.

Therefore, the verification environment can use the updated log printing level to run the corresponding problem component in the time period when the problem occurs, and use the initial log printing level to run the problem component in other time periods, because the updated log printing level is lower than the initial log printing level, more detailed log information can be printed, and the initial log printing level is used to run the problem component in the time period when no problem occurs, so that the possibility of printing invalid log information can be effectively reduced, the log scale is reduced as much as possible, the disk space is saved to the maximum extent, and the simulation efficiency is effectively improved.
