Hi all,
I tried to run analysis & synthesis on a rather large design on Quartus Prime Pro 21.2, and got a popup saying "Sorry! The Quartus Prime software quit unexpectedly."
The following is the problem report:

Hi,
I do not find this internal error in our database.
Could you help to share your design .qar file that could duplicate this error?
As without duplication of the error from our side, it would be hard for the engineering team to debug it.
Best Regards,
Richard Tan

Hi Richard,
There might be a confidential issue when sharing the .qar file.
Is there any other option for us to help you get the information you need?

You can create a simplified design that could duplicate the error, which will take time.
Or you could send me the .qar through email. I will you send you a personal email and you can attach the design on top of it.
Else, there is not much we can do to resolve the internal error.

Hi Richard,
The email option sounds good to me.
Thank you again!

I run your design and got the below internal error.
Could you help to confirm? It is slightly different from the previous post. Line: 1143 vs 1142

If it is below internal error:
Internal Error: Sub-system: QIS, File: /quartus/synth/qis/qis_parallel_helper.cpp, Line: 1142
I found that this issue has been fixed in the latest Quartus released version 22.1 and will generate a real error message now.
You may try to download the Quartus version and run the design to check if the issue fix.
Best Regards,
Richard Tan

Btw, may I know how long do you run the Analysis and synthesis with your design?
For my case, it never stops running after 1 day until I force stop it and the IE pop up.

Hi Richard,
The error message popped up around 2 hours after Analysis & Synthesis started.
Also, I think I found the problem.
- When instantiating a one-word 512-bit 2-port RAM, it takes around 13 M20K block memory instead of just one, which makes the memory usage of the device on which quartus is running increase dramatically and finally causes the error and fails the compilation. (PS: I instantiated around 400 512-bit 2-port RAM, which might take 400*13 block memory for quartus to synthesize)
After some architecture transformation on 2-port RAM, I was able to compile the design properly.
Thanks.

Great to hear that you are able to find the root cause and resolve the issue! I will update this IE in our Knowledge DataBase for other users that might come across similar issue.
With that, I will now transition this thread to community support. If you have a new question, feel free to open a new thread to get the support from Intel experts. Otherwise, the community users will continue to help you on this thread. Thank you.
Best Regards,
Richard Tan
