Zynq-7000 HW-SW Co-Simulation QEMU-QuestaSim

Introduction This is a step-by-step guide to enable hardware (PL) – software (PS) Co-Simulation with QEMU and QuestaSim for a Vivado Zynq project running a Linux operating system and applications. Being able to simulate the interactions between the software running on the ARM processing system (PS) and the FPGA Programmable Logic (PL) allows for full-system simulation and can help development of drivers as well as embedded software that relies on the PL. Prequisites Linux-based operating system Vivado (this guide uses…

Running Questasim on any OS through Docker

Questasim When doing HDL simulation Questasim is one of our main tools. However it only runs on Windows and GNU/Linux. Although we  mostly use GNU/Linux machines Questasim is not compatible with all distributions. This mainly because of library version compatibility, albeit this being fixable, it is a pain to do (find out which library is the culprit and which version is needed). So creating a Docker image seems like a good solution. It provides a known fixed environment to Questasim…
