FAQPage Schema
How do I automate SystemVerilog linting in a CI/CD pipeline?

You can automate SystemVerilog linting by running Verilator checks that output a structured, parseable result block. This enables automated code quality verification directly within your CI/CD pipeline.

What is the best way to get structured output from Verilator lint checks?

The best way to get structured output from Verilator lint checks is to use a linting skill that categorizes errors and warnings into a parseable block. This structured format includes explanations for common SystemVerilog issues for easier orchestration.

How do I fix common SystemVerilog linting warnings?

To fix common SystemVerilog linting warnings, you can reference the predefined mapping of warning types provided during the lint process. This mapping offers specific explanations and suggested resolutions for each identified issue.

Can I lint multiple SystemVerilog files without specifying each one?

Yes, you can lint multiple SystemVerilog files without specifying each one because the linting process supports auto-detection. If no files are provided, the tool automatically detects and processes the available SV files.

Does Verilator linting separate errors from warnings for prioritization?

Verilator linting categorizes issues into distinct errors and warnings to provide clear prioritization. This classification helps developers focus on critical errors first before addressing less severe SystemVerilog warnings.
