Quartus Prime v. 21.1.1: Fatal Error: Segment Violation

Hi,

I am using Quartus Prime ver. 21.1.1 Build 850 06/23/2022 SJ Lite Edition for development on a Cyclone V board (DE10-Nano). I am using the Linux version of the software.

When compiling a project from the Quartus Prime GUI, the program sometimes crashes with a segfault. I am not 100% sure, but I think this mostly happens when the simulation netlist generation is enabled in the settings.

Here is the complete crash log:

Hi,

I have to correct myself: the segfaults happen not when the simulation netlist generation is enabled, but when the option "Run Design Assistant during compilation" is enabled in the options.

Hope this can be easily fixed.

BR,

Hi Stanislav,


Sometime means intermittently when the option "Run Design Assistant during compilation" is enabled in the options?

May I know if it is possible for you to attach the archived design for me to replicate, might be design dependent.

If yes, seem to me like a valid bug

Hi,

Yes, here "sometimes" means occasionally, from time to time. By the way, recently I got another segfault even when the option "Run Design Assistant during compilation" was disabled in settings. So, the problem can be more complex. Unfortunately, I cannot send you the project files because it is a confidential information. I can send you crash reports. Here is the last crash report:

Hello Stanislav,


Without a small design, its hard to debug. Since there is confidential information, you can still send me your compilation database without sending my source design files. May follow below kdb.

This will expedite the process.

Hello Stanislav,


I miss the kdb link, here it is, you can sen your compilation database without sending the source design files. Let me know any concern on this.
