HPS BFM simulation error

[Altera_Forum]

Hi, 

 When I tried to run the BFM Simulation Example from (https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/design-examples/design-software/qsys/exm-hps-axi-bfm.html), I got an error saying that cannot compile export_tramp.so. The error message is as the following. What is the file "export_tramp.so"? I don't see it in any of the Verilog file or simulation script. Why the vsim invoke gcc? Based on the error message, should I install a 32-bit glibc? Thanks!  *************************************************  eval vsim -t ps $ELAB_OPTIONS -L work -L work_lib -L altera_common_sv_packagess -L border -L id_pad -L hps_io -L fpga_interfaces -L rst_controller -L mm_intercconnect_0 -L hps_0 -L demo_axi_memory_0 -L HPS_h2f_axi_sim_inst_reset_bfm -L HPS__h2f_axi_sim_inst_clk_bfm -L HPS_h2f_axi_sim_inst $TOP_LEVEL_NAME# vsim -t ps -L work -L work_lib -L altera_common_sv_packagess -L border -L id_pad -L hps_io -L fpga_interfaces -L rst_controller -L mm_intercconnect_0 -L hps_0 -L demo_axi_memory_0 -L HPS_h2f_axi_sim_inst_reset_bfm -L HPS__h2f_axi_sim_inst_clk_bfm -L HPS_h2f_axi_sim_inst HPS_h2f_axi_sim_tb # Start time: 20:54:15 on May 15,2018# ** Warning: ** Warning: (vsim-7032) the 32-bit glibc rpm does not appear to be installed on this machine. calls to gcc may fail.# # ** Warning: ** Warning: (vsim-7032) The 32-bit glibc RPM does not appear to be installed on this machine.

It looks like Modelsim compiling and using a shared library, maybe to emulate the ARM processor? From the look of it it looks like you need the 32-bit glibc to compile that library.

However, I got another error SAYING "Failed to find user specified function 'axi_data_resp_Complete_Join_SystemVerilog' "  Is this something related to the license? I'm running Modelsim_ae with license.
