I'm experiencing the same issue on linux-x64 (in my case the workaround has been unsetting the VERILATOR_ROOT
variable set by oss-cad-suite/environment
)
Same here on darwin-x64. Apparently happened with commit 07326f28199f882c6bfadea5f502452990273121.
This is what they have said about it on the verilator github #5047:
VERILATOR_ROOT is intended to point to the directory that contains the bin and include subdirectories, like in a source tree. This was always the intention, even before the change, and is describe in the installation manual here: https://github.com/verilator/verilator/blob/master/docs/guide/install.rst#1-run-in-place-from-verilator_root
You are using installation method 2 from here: https://github.com/verilator/verilator/blob/master/docs/guide/install.rst#2-install-into-a-specific-prefix Albeit it's not explicitly said, this does not require setting VERILATOR_ROOT. The scripts know what it should be, and hence the error if you set it to something inconsistent. As the error suggests, you should leave VERILATOR_ROOT unset and just run the verilator executable, it should take care of everything else for you.
If you want to know what VERILATOR_ROOT is (though ideally you shouldn't have to care), run verilator --getenv VERILATOR_ROOT
Platform: MinGW64
Problem: The Verilator binary exists in two locations (
oss-cad-suite/share/verilator/bin/
andoss-cad-suite/bin
), but using the one inoss-cad-suite/bin
leads to an errorVERILATOR_ROOT is set to inconsistent path. Suggest leaving it unset.
.Since when: This seems to have been trigger on March 12 by commit 07326f2.
Workaround: Removing the binary from
oss-cad-suite/bin
and using the one inoss-cad-suite/share/verilator/bin/
works. [edit: ensuring the correct executable if found first in the path works too]
