NAME
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.
