core-v-verif

Functional verification project for the CORE-V family of RISC-V cores.

NEWS UPDATES:

2021-03-23: The verificaton environment for the cv32e40x is up and running.
2020-12-16: The cv32e40p_v1.0.0 of core-v-verif is released. This tag clones the v1.0.0 release of the CV32E40P CORE-V core and will allow you to reproduce the verification environment as it existed at RTL Freeze.
More news is available in the archive.

Getting Started

First, have a look at the OpenHW Group's website to learn a bit more about who we are and what we are doing.
Reading the Verification Strategy is strongly recommended.

Getting started with CV32E40P

If you want to run a simulation there are two options:

1. To run the CORE testbench, go to cv32e40p/sim/core and read the README.
2. To run the CV32E40P UVM environment, go to cv32e40p/sim/uvmt and read the README.

Getting started with CVA6

To run CVA6 testbench, go to cva6 directory and read the README.
