crash during synthesis - crash during synthesis
Hi, when I run synthesis and analysis in my project it crashes after 6min. The crash happens every time (with fresh sources and quartus project). I cannot share whole project and stack trace gives no clues where the problem could be. Please find below report: Problem Details Error: *** Fatal Error: Segment Violation: faulting address=(nil), PC=(nil) : 0: Module: quartus_syn Stack Trace: Err Handler 0x122f8: ERR_UNWINDER_BACKTRACE::get_stack_trace(void const**, int, int, void*) + 0xe0 (ccl_err) Err Handler 0x8a1f6: msg_ie_get_call_stack(void*) + 0xc4 (ccl_msg) Err Handler 0x8ba52: MSG_INTERNAL_ERROR::report_fatal(char const*, void*, bool) + 0x40 (ccl_msg) Err Handler 0x14fd2: err_report_fatal_exception(char const*, void*, bool) + 0x6f (ccl_err) Err Handler 0x15b1c: err_sigaction_handler + 0x191 (ccl_err) System 0x12980: (pthread) End-trace Executable: quartus Comment: crash during synth System Information Platform: linux64 OS name: Ubuntu 18.04.1 OS version: 18 Quartus Prime Information Address bits: 64 Version: 22.2.0 Build: 94 Edition: Pro Edition

Hi, thank you for the update. Fix in Quartus 23.1 will be enough for me. I do not need workaround. Thanks, Piotr

Re: crash during synthesis
Hi Wija, Update: The fix has been ported to 23.1, and will branch to 22.4 around next week for fix. Regarding current version you are using, I am pending reply on requesting a workaround or possibly a patch. Let me know if that is okay.

Hi Wija, Understood. I had filed a report to the developer for further debug and this is a real bug. I will let you know once there is any update.

Re: crash during synthesis
Hi, I can't see any correlation between my case and KDB that you send. 1. I do not use import inside modport 2. I do not have localparam which depends on other parameter in the interface 3. I checked it on Quartus 22.2 and KDB was fixed since 22.1

Hi Wija, I found a KDB related to your issue, Please take a look as this might resolve your issue. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000090049.html

I am able to reproduce the issue. Let me check this internally.

Re: crash during synthesis
HI Wija, Apologize for the delay as i was in a long holiday. May I know what device you use? S10? A10? Can just achieve the design with your top.sv and attach the qar here?

Hi Wija, Thank you. I will replicate the issue and let you know any findings.

Re: crash during synthesis
I was lucky! Please find attached the test case. Regards, Piotr

Re: crash during synthesis
Wija, Understood, Since you are not able to attach the design, is it possible to attach the database here? You may refer to link below to compile database without sending your source design files. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/articles/000076181.html We need at least some input other than the message to debug.

Re: crash during synthesis
Hi, As I wrote before its not possible to create small test case in situation where Quartus gives mi no clue what part of code is it processing. Is it possible increase verbosity, or add patch with additional logs? With that, I will try to prepare the test case. Regards, Piotr

Re: crash during synthesis
Hi Wija, Seem this is valid bug as you had hit fatal error. Is it possible to create small test case replicating the issue? This could help us to investigate and fix the issue - 2022-09-09
