Why do I get an error when simulating the R-Tile Multi Channel DMA Intel® FPGA IP for PCI Express* Design Example using the VCS simulator?

Environment

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition
  • OS Independent family

    BUILT IN - ARTICLE INTRO SECOND COMPONENT
    Description

    Due to a problem in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software version 22.4, an error will be observed when trying to simulate the R-Tile  Multi Channel DMA Intel® FPGA IP for PCI Express* Design Example for Intel Agilex® devices using the VCS simulator.

    The following error message will be seen:                                                                  

    INFO:          497636 ns Starting DMA Read....H2D

    Resolution

    There is no workaround for this problem.

    This problem has been fixed starting with version 23.1 of the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition Software.
