· Level up and perform full System HW-SW verification at pre-silicon level
- ·Iterate HW and SW changes 10X faster at RTL compared to FPGA or system prototypes
- ·Begin HW-SW integration much sooner in development process
· Virtual machine to VIP co-sim/co-emulate environment extends existing SV/UVM testbench + VIPs
· Run OS and SW unmodified from actual system configuration
· Debug trace shows QEMU to remote PCIe/CXL/AXI ports transactions
· Avery's implementation of QEMU co-simulation is optimized for fastest performance including KVM mode and iWARP technology
· Simulations are scalable to 10s to 100s of instances for regression over OS versions and HW configurations
