vcd2fst – Converts VCD files to FST files
Syntax
vcd2fst [option]… [VCDFILE] [FSTFILE]Description
Converts VCD files to FST files.Options
- -v,–vcdname <filename>
- Specify VCD/FSDB/VPD/WLF input filename. Processing of filetypes other than VCD requires that the appropriate 2vcd converter was found during ./configure.
- -f,–fstname <filename>
- Specify FST output filename.
- -4,–fourpack
- Indicates that LZ4 should be used for value change data (default).
- -F,–fastpack
- Indicates that fastlz should be used instead of LZ4 for value change data.
- -4,–zlibpack
- Indicates that zlib should be used instead of LZ4 for value change data.
- -c,–compress
- Indicates that the entire file should be run through gzip on close. This results in much smaller files at the expense of a one-time decompression penalty on file open during reads.
- -p,–parallel
- Indicates that parallel mode should be enabled. This spawns a worker thread to continue with FST block processing while conversion continues on the main thread for new FST block data.
- -h,–help
- Show help screen.
Examples
Note that you should specify dumpfile.vcd directly or use "-" for stdin.- vcd2fst dumpfile.vcd dumpfile.fst –compress
- This indicates that the FST file should be post-compressed on close.
