Generating and adding additional control information to logic under test to facilitate debugging and comprehension of a simulation

Abstract

Provided are systems, methods, and media for handling simulation of logic under test. An example method includes receiving a simulation model for the logic under test. Generating second logic that is configured to create a set of output logic signals based on an existing set of input logic signals of the logic under test. Rebuilding the simulation model based, at least in part, on the second logic. Examining a netlist of the rebuilt simulation model to identify the set of output logic signals created by the second logic. Generating during the execution of the simulation, a bus trace that is configured to capture at least the identified set of output logic signals.
