[sv-cc] RE: Current SV-CC Errata?

Team,

By now, you have probably seen the email that
David has sent on bug database. As we move to
this new system, it will be much easier for us
to maintain the bug lifecycles, even though we
may encounter some teething problem initially.

Here are some suggestins from my side. Please
feel free to debate them or add yours to the
list.

o Joao will publish a last rev of the buglist
in Excel format. Joao, please do this ASAP as
we are little behind in maintaining that list.

o We will switch over to the bug system after that
and I will initially assign all the bugs to Joao
during the period of transition. (One is already
assigned to him as a test).

o I will ask David to give logins to Francoise,
Doug, Michael and Bassam as representatives of
various companies. Ghassan, Joao and I already
have logins.

o We will dynamically assign/re-assign the
ownership of a bug after that depending on
how things move.

o So far, I believe, we have three classes
of bugs (1) Agreed upon: mainly typos and text
changes. (2) Under discussion and (3) Noted
but not yet discussed. Initially I will keep
ALL of them open but I expect to move type (1)
to move quickly to a CLOSED status in one
meeting or so.

Given these and the timing of other things,
we will have a special meeting on next Wednesday
(07/14). Note that we will NOT have a meeting
tomorrow.

Sorry, I have been a bit delayed with updating the spreadsheet (Synopsys is
in a shutdown,
I've had some vacation to enjoy, etc). Anyway, I should have the errata
updated soon.

  Francoise,

  I don't know what the most current errata source is. Possible sources
are:
  . Joao's XL errata file, but the last one I've seen may date from a 5/25
email.
  . The 'new bug system' at www.eda.org/svdb touted in a Dave Smith email of
6/2.
    (I just checked it as a 'guest' user and it reported only 1 SV-CC open
errata).

  Swapnajit, Joao, do you have any advice?

  Thanks, regardless,
  Ralph

      1. Obsolete Definition of Import Task Return Type (27.4.4)
      The text states that a DPI import task has a return type of void but
      the required return type is int (LRM 3.1a sections 27.7, 27.8).
      where:  Section 27.4.4, paragraph 2, final sentence.
      Before: "Imported tasks never return a result, and thus are always
declared in
              foreign code as void functions."
      After:  "Imported tasks always return an int result as part of the DPI
disable
              protocol and, thus, are declared in foreign code as int
functions (see
              Sections 27.7 and 27.8)."
