SoC program execution display positioning method and device, computer equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The invention relates to a SoC program execution display positioning method and device, computer equipment and a storage medium, and the method comprises the steps: carrying out the analysis of an Elffile through operating a script program, and obtaining a corresponding relation between a program source file and a pointer address; generating a corresponding symbol file and an address file according to the corresponding relationship between the program source file and the pointer address; loading the symbol file and the address file into an SoC verification environment; forming a character variable signal according to the character and address relationship of the symbol file and the address file, and displaying an address interval between the two characters by using a first character; whenthe verification program skips from one address interval to another address interval, dynamically displaying a skipping process through the character variable signal. According to the invention, therelationship between the pointer and the source file can be automatically matched and displayed on an interface such as a waveform in a manner such as a signal variable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chip verification, in particular to a display positioning method, device, computer equipment and storage medium for SoC program execution. Background technique [0002] SoC (System on Chip, chip-level system) is an integrated circuit with a dedicated target, which contains a complete system and has all the content of embedded software. All SoC chips are inseparable from the execution of the CPU, and the movement of the pointer is involved in the execution process of the CPU. [0003] Usually in the verification of SoC, the CPU is used to operate the functional modules. These operations are written in a software language, and then converted into binary files for the CPU to execute through assembly, linking and other processes. For example, use ARM type processors, use C language to write programs, use ARM development kits to compile, link and other processes, and finally convert them into binary files and...

Problems solved by technology

This method needs to manually take out the pointer and search for confirmation in file A, so there is more manual participation

And because when locating, often only locate the code position where the program is executed, but the understanding of the entire code execution process is not intuitive, and it is impossible to see the entire program execution process at a glance

Obviously, the traditional positioning method requires manual intervention and repeated searches for pointers and file relationships to confirm the process relationship of program execution, which not only brings efficiency problems to people in locating the program execution location, but also the process of program execution is not intuitive.
