How can we add functional coverage while running simulation using NCSIM
cadence, system-verilog, uvm
Solution
By default, Incisive does not collect functional coverage. You need to enable it with the compile-time `-covfile` option, specifying `select_functional`.
Also, in the source code, you must explicitly call the `sample` function on all covergroups (this applies to all simulators).
Problem
I am trying to run a coverage regression using the NC tool from Cadence. I can see RTL coverage, but functional coverage in the scoreboard is missing. How can I add this scoreboard to the `covdut` option in NCSIM arguments? The scoreboard contains covergroups.
