UVM_MAX_QUIT_COUNT Usage

UVM

Hi ,

Even though i pass +UVM_MAX_QUIT_COUNT=1000 , simulation stops after 5 errors. My understanding is simulation should stop after 1000 errors. may i know, what is the issue?

Thanks

The +UVM_MAX_QUIT_COUNT=1000 is the threshold for up to max 1000 errors. When simulation reaches to 1000 uvm_error then it will exit from the simulation. It’s possible that you don’t get any uvm_error and your test passes even thought after passing this switch. This is expected behavior only.

In general, you don’t want to set +UVM_MAX_QUIT_COUNT to 1000. As per your expectations, you can set 1 to 10 which can help to save simulation cycle.

Did you check if there is an

set_report_max_quit_count = 5;

statement in your code?

Hi ,

You can set the simulator quit count from the SV code and from the command line.
I asked you if there is in your code the quit count set.
See my last post.
And please check if you do not face a fatal. A fatal stops the simulation immediately.
