(vlog-13006) Could not find the package (avalon_mm_pkg). See line 32, 33 in Transcript Code generated by modelsim. Where can i find this avalon_mm_pkg.sv code, and where should i put it? Thanks, PVanL

[PVanL]

i built a PHY for the cyclone10GX. I now want to connect the LL 10G MAC to it, and as test now trying to run the alt_em_10g32_EXAMPLE_DESIGN generated by QUARTUS version 18.0.0 build 219 04/24/2018 SJ Pro Edition with Cyclone10GX libraries. Modelsim version starter edition 10.6C, revision 2017.07.

I managed to get the msim_setup.tcl script running, until i face the following issue : when it compiles avalon_driver.sv, in line 66 it wants to import avalon_mm_pkg, but this file does not exist.

I then found in Quartus II software 11.1 release notes (2011!) the following:

Simulating an Avalon MM master or slave BFM with msim_setup.tcl in ModelSim leads to errors

Description

If you attempt to simulate an Altera Avalon Memory-Mapped (MM) Master bus functional model (BFM), or an Altera Avalon MM Slave BFM using the generated Model-

Sim script msim_setup.tcl, ModelSim may issue error messages similar to the following:

Error: test_module.sv(2): Could not find the package (avalon_mm_pkg).

Error: (vsim-8386) ./test_module.sv(75): An enum variable may only be assigned the same enum typed variable or one of its values.

Workaround

Perform one to the following steps:

• At a command prompt, run “ip-make-simscript --spd=<generated_spd_file>

--compile-to-work” to regenerate the ModelSim simulation script that compiles

all component into a single work library, or

• Manually modify the msim_setup.tcl script to compile all files into a single work

library.

i tried to follow this, but don't have a clue what i am doing....

 “ip-make-simscript --spd=avalon_mm_pkg --compile-to-work”

# invalid command name "“ip-make-simscript"

 do ip-make-simscript --spd=avalon_mm_pkg --compile-to-work

# Cannot open macro file: ip-make-simscript

How do I edit my own question?

I found an avalon_mm_pkg.sv.

I added avalon_mm_pkg.sv to EXAMPLE/simulation/ed_sim/models, where the other verilog code is located. (avalon_various.sv, eth_various.sv, default_test_params_pkg.sv and tb_top.sv)

I added in tb_top.sv line 22  `include "avalon_mm_pkg.sv".

I added in avalon_driver.sv line 20  `include "avalon_mm_pkg.sv".

See code snippet 1

Msim Transcript reports: see sode snippet 2.

Line 8: In line 38 of avalon_mm_pkg.sv, a packet is called but not found. [encrypted]. There is no vopt-7 error.

Line 10: As a result of course, the avalon_driver cannot import the avalon_mm_pkg parameters @ Line 67    import avalon_mm_pkg::*;

Please advice

Hi,

I was facing the similar problem and here is the solution -

1. Add avalon_mm_pkg.sv and verbosity_pkg.sv in the model folder where tb_top.sv is located.

2. Compile the verbosity_pkg.sv using the command "vlog -reportprogress 300 -sv "+incdir+../../models" ../../models/verbosity_pkg.sv" .

3. Now compile avalon_mm_pkg.sv using "vlog -reportprogress 300 -sv "+incdir+../../models" ../../models/avalon_mm_pkg.sv" .

4. Compile the tb_top.sv file " vlog -reportprogress 300 -sv "+incdir+../../models" ../../models/tb_top.sv".

5. Now try running again using ld_debug.

Foe me it solved using these steps. I was using Questa (Quartus prime 22.2).

Thank you

Hi Pieter,

Apologize for idle for a while, has the issue solved? Do you need my help with your inquiry?
