3.8. Building the Example

3.8.1. Command Files
3.8.2. Additional Flags

To facilitate building the models, a Makefile is provided in the top level directory. Three targets are provided.

make simulate will run an event driven simulation using Icarus Verilog (in the sim sub-directory).
make verilate will build and then run a SystemC cycle accurate model using Verilator
make clean will clean out all generated files.

For the simulate target, the time used by the iverilog compilation and the vvp execution are recorded (with time -p).

For the verilate target, the time used to create the Verilated model and the execution time of the complete SystemC model are recorded (also with time -p).
