From 114253cd54808d929022014928eff9cd5eb0f275 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ethan Mahintorabi Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2022 00:32:33 +0000 Subject: Improves ABC command runtime by 10-100x After speaking with the author of ABC he let me know that ifraig is a very old command, and that &get; &fraig -x; &put is over 100x faster than ifraig with improved PPA results. After making the change I confirmed that this is in fact a major speed up. On our internal designs in O(millions) of standard cells we saw multi hour reductions in runtime. Also included is an improvement to the dress command. Using AIG based transformations removes the spec it SATs against. Proving the input blif will make sure that no matter what commands are run the dress command can still do its job. I noticed a regression against some LUT mapping jobs that prompted me to fix this. --- passes/techmap/abc.cc | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'passes/techmap/abc.cc') diff --git a/passes/techmap/abc.cc b/passes/techmap/abc.cc index 656c36b84..49849b1c7 100644 --- a/passes/techmap/abc.cc +++ b/passes/techmap/abc.cc @@ -29,11 +29,11 @@ // Kahn, Arthur B.
