Verdi VC Apps除了能在Verdi gui中启动之外，其实还可以使用batch mode. 下面我简单介绍一下如何使用：

$VERDI_HOME/share/VIA/Apps/Bin/ 目录下有各个Apps对应的perl脚本，我们使用该脚本来启动batch mode.

以listRegisters.pl 为例：

perl $VERDI_HOME/share/VIA/Apps/Bin/listRegisters.pl

有如下输出：

[VC App]listRegisters.pl[Path]/share/VIA/Apps/Bin/[Abstract]Run listRegisters in batch mode
[Usage]./listRegisters.pl <design_import> \[-target_scope <target_scope>] \[-o <output_log>] \[-non_reset_flop] \[-report_sync_reset] [Example]./listRegisters.pl -f run.f -path Design -target_scope "tb_CPUsystem.i_CPUsystem" -non_reset_flop[Options]-target_scope: optional.specify the target scope full hierarchical name to list registers.-o: specify the output log name; default is "listRegisters.log"-non_reset_flop: optional.specify whether to only dump the non-resettable flop-report_sync_reset: optional.specify whether to dump the synchronous reset pin by the RTL coding style in the flop

如果仅仅用上面help 中提到的几个option，执行如下命令：

 perl $VERDI_HOME/share/VIA/Apps/Bin/listRegisters.pl -non_reset_flop  -target_scope ipsec_ss_tb_top.dut.core_0

是会报错的，因为找不到design的database
 

[listRegisters] Begin to list the inferred registers in the design...
[listRegisters] Target scope: ipsec_ss_tb_top.dut.core_0novas: Please import design first![listRegisters]-Error. Failed to find the scope "ipsec_ss_tb_top.dut.core_0" in design.

其实listRegisters.pl 脚本隐含了一个-dbdir的option，上面的命令改为：
 

perl $VERDI_HOME/share/VIA/Apps/Bin/listRegisters.pl -dbdir /xxx/xxx/simv.daidir -non_reset_flop  -target_scope ipsec_ss_tb_top.dut.core_0

就能正确生成
 

[listRegisters] Begin to list the inferred registers in the design...
[listRegisters] Target scope: ipsec_ss_tb_top.dut.core_0
[listRegisters] Write to the log file "listRegisters.log"...
[listRegisters] End...
