Currently vvp_reg.py uses `returncode >= 256` to distinguish execution errors from ordinary compile or simulation failures. That matches the encoded status returned by wait(), but subprocess.run() does not expose that value. Its returncode is the decoded process exit status, or `-N` if the process was terminated by signal N. Shell wrappers can also report signal termination as `128 + N`. As a result a compiler crash can be reported as `-11` or `139`. Both values pass the old check and a CE test can be accepted as a normal compiler error. Treat negative return codes and return codes greater than or equal to 128 as execution errors before accepting CE and EF results. Also make sure that CE gold mismatches are reported as failures.

#################### # # Main test script # #################### There are a group of tests that are meant to exercise the compiler and the run time. To run them just type: ./regress or perl vvp_reg.pl or if perl is located in /usr/bin ./vvp_reg.pl The output from these tests are displayed on the screen and are also placed in the regression_report.txt file. The expected output for the current development release is located in the regression_report-devel.txt file. The expected output for stable (released) versions can be found in files named regression_report-v<version>.txt. The results from individual tests can be found in the log directory and gold files, when needed, are in the gold directory. The source files can be found in the ivltests and contrib directories. The list of tests and how they are run are in the regress-*.list files. To check a specific suffixed version of Icarus Verilog use the --suffix=<suffix> flag to tell the script which version to run e.g.(--suffix=-10 will test iverilog-10, etc.). You can also run the test with valgrind (very very slow) by giving the script the --with-valgrind flag. #################### # # VPI test script # #################### To test the VPI interface type: perl vpi_reg.pl or if perl is located in /usr/bin ./vpi_reg.pl All these tests should pass. The individual test results are found in the vpi_log directory and the gold files are in the vpi_gold directory. The source files are in the vpi directory. The vpi_regress.list file has the tests to perform. This script also takes the --suffix=<suffix> and the --with-valgrind flags described above. #################### # # VHDL test script # #################### ** Note this is no longer maintained ** This test script require that ghdl be installed in your path and is used to test the Verilog to VHDL translation. perl vhdl_reg.pl or if perl is located in /usr/bin ./vhdl_reg.pl The tests are expected to pass except for the tri* tests. This script also takes the --suffix=<suffix> and the --with-valgrind flags described above. #################### # # BLIF test script # #################### This test script require that abc be installed in your path and is used to test the Verilog to VHDL translation. python blif_reg.py There is no expected output as of yet so to check for regressions simply run with and without your patches. #################### # # Windows (MinGW) test issues # #################### When running under Windows using a MinGW build in a MSYS2 shell, the expected output from vvp_reg.pl can be found in regression_report-msys2.txt. The MinGW/MSYS2 specific test exceptions can be found in regress-msys2.list. Exceptions for the VPI tests can be found in the vpi_regress.list file. With Windows 10 and MSYS2, there are now very few differences between the Windows and Linux builds.
