Synopsis [Implements SPFD-based placement independent logic optimization command, spfd_pilo, for combinational circuits mapped to LUT-based FPGAs.]

CommandName [spfd_pilo]

CommandSynopsis [Perform SPFD-based placement independent logic optimization.]

CommandArguments [\[-a <\[0,1\]>\] \[-D <depth>\] \[-f <file>\] \[-h\] \[-i <freq>\] \[-p <percent>\] \[-r\] \[-S <n>\] \[-t <sec>\] \[-v <n>\] \[-w <file>\] ]

CommandDescription [This command performs SPFD-based wire removal/replacement and reprogramming of combinational circuits mapped to LUT-based FPGAs to reduce the number of wires and nodes in the circuit. The flexibilities in the circuit are represented by SPFDs. The following references explain in detail the theory behind SPFDs.

S. Yamashita, H. Sawada, and A. Nagoya. A new method to express functional permissibilities for LUT based FPGAs and its applications. In International Conference on Computer Aided Design, pages 254-261, 1996.

Subarnarekha Sinha and Robert K. Brayton. Implementation and use of SPFDs in optimizaing Boolean networks. In International Conference on Computer Aided Design, 1998.

Instead of computing the flexibilities for every node in the network at once, the algorithm computes the flexibilities for one cluster at a time. Working with clusters allows us to avoid the BDD explosion problem and hence, handle large circuits. The SPFDs are computed for the cluster and the cluster nodes are reprogrammed based on the flexibility derived. Switching activity is used to drive the choice of alternate function to be implemented at the node. In the absence of switching activity information, the function that can reduce support of the node can be chosen (not implemented). Currently, an arbitrary choice is made from the flexibilities provided by SPFDs. (-S 0, -S 2, and -S 4)

Before calling this command a network should be created for the design (use flatten_hierarchy) and MDD ids for every node in the network should be created (static_order -o all -n append, for example). Dynamic variable ordering (dvo -e sift) can be enabled to reduce BDD sizes.

Command options:

-a <alpha>

A convex combination of switched capacitance (switching activity * fanout count, SWC) and topological depth is used to sort the fanin nodes during SPFD computation. alpha is between 0 and 1.0. The cost function is alpha*SWC + (1.0-alpha)*topDepth. The default value is 0.5.

-D <depth>

A cluster is computed which includes nodes within the specified 'depth'. The default value is 1.

-f <file>

File with simulation vectors. The file format is as below. The format is simple but strict and hence, few checks are made.

.i c n d o e p f q g r h s i t j u k a l b m
.s
0 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 ;
0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 ;
0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 ;
0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 1 ;

The .i statement specifies the primary inputs of the network. The patterns start after .s key word. Each vector is a space separated list of bits and ends in a semi-colon. The length of any vector should be equal to the number of signals specified in the .i statement. A line starting with # is a comment.

-h

Print usage.

-i <freq>

Number of iterations after which to update node switching activity. This is valid only if patterns are provided in a file using -f option. The default value is every 5 iterations.

-m <n>

Heuristics to optimize a selected node.
0: Reduce the selected node's support.
1: Reprogram the selected node.
2: Reprogram the selected node's fanin nodes. (default)
3: Reduce the selected node's fanout wires.

-p <percent>

The percentage of vectors, specified via -f option, used to perform simulation (to update switching activity) during logic optimization. The default value is 10%.

-r

Do not reprogram LUTs if no structural changes have been performed with in the cluster, i.e., if no nodes or wires have been removed do not change the local implementation of LUTs even if alternate implementations are availabe from SPFD information. The default is to reprogram.

-S <n>

Method used to sort nodes. The nodes are then optimized in that order.
0: Random node is chosen. (default)
1: If switching activity is available, node with maximum SWC is chosen.
2: Node with maximum fanout is chosen.
3: If switching activity is available, node with minimum SWC is chosen.
4: Node with minimum fanout is chosen.

-t <sec>

Time in seconds allowed to complete the command. If the computation time goes above that limit, the process is aborted. The default is no limit.

-v <n>

Verbosity level. Default value is 0.

-w <file>

File to output final optimized circuit.

]

Relevant flags to be set by the set command:

spfd_repl_rem
If no, the logic optimization performs only wire removal. If yes, both wire replacement and removal are performed.

SideEffects [The network is changed to reflect the wires/nodes removed or replaced. The internal function of the nodes is also changed. The partition attached to the network is changed accordingly.]

Synopsis [Implements SPFD-based simultaneous placement and logic optimization command, spfd_pdlo, for combinational circuits mapped to LUT-based FPGAs.]

CommandName [spfd_pdlo]

CommandSynopsis [Perform SPFD-based simultaneous placement and logic optimization.]

CommandArguments [\[-D <depth>\] \[-h\] \[-n <file>\] \[-r\] \[-t <sec>\] \[-v <n>\] \[-w <file>\] net_file arch_file place_file route_file]

CommandDescription [This command performs SPFD-based combined logic and placement optimization of combinational circuits mapped to LUT-based FPGAs to improve circuit area and speed. The flexibilities in the circuit are represented by SPFDs. The following references explain in detail the theory behind SPFDs.

S. Yamashita, H. Sawada, and A. Nagoya. A new method to express functional permissibilities for LUT based FPGAs and its applications. In International Conference on Computer Aided Design, pages 254-261, 1996.

Subarnarekha Sinha and Robert K. Brayton. Implementation and use of SPFDs in optimizaing Boolean networks. In International Conference on Computer Aided Design, 1998.

The command implements a technique that tightly links the logic and placement optimization steps. The algorithm is based on simulated annealing. Two types of moves, directed towards global reduction in the cost function (total wire length), are accepted by the simulated annealing algorithm: (1) wire removal/replacement, and (2) swapping of a pair of blocks in the FPGA. Feedback from placement is valuable in making an informed choice of a target wire during logic optimization moves. The logic optimization steps performed are similar to those of spfd_pilo, except that the placement information is now used instead of the fanout count. More information on this technique can be found in :

Balakrishna Kumthekar and Fabio Somenzi. Power and delay reduction via simultaneous logic and placement optimization in FPGAs. In Design, Automation and Test in Europe, 2000.

The command produces a placement file which is used by VPR for routing.

This command can be used only if VIS is linked with VPR 4.22 (Versatile Place and Route), the FPGA place and route tool VPR, from the University of Toronto. Please follow the instructions provided in the release notes to use VPR with VIS. You can also contact kumtheka@avanticorp.com if you need more help.

Before calling this command a network should be created for the design (use flatten_hierarchy) and MDD ids for every node in the network should be created (static_order -o all -n append). Dynamic variable ordering (dvo -e sift) can be enabled to reduce BDD sizes.

Command options:

-D <depth>

A cluster is computed which includes nodes within the specified 'depth'. The default value is 1.

-n <file>

File to output the optimized circuit in VPR's .net format.

-r

Do not reprogram LUTs if no structural changes have been performed with in the cluster, i.e., if no nodes or wires have been removed do not change the local implementation of LUTs even if alternate implementations are availabe from SPFD information. The default is to reprogram.

-t <sec>

Time in seconds allowed to complete the command. If the computation time goes above that limit, the process is is aborted. The default is no limit.

-v <n>

Verbosity level.

-w <file>

File to output final optimized circuit.

The following is needed by VPR:

net_file

The description of the circuit in the .net format. Logic optimization uses the circuit described in .BLIF format whereas VPR needs the same circuit described in .net format. VPack (which comes with VPR) converts a .BLIF format into a .net format.

arch_file

Architecture description file for FPGAs. More information can be found in VPR's manual.

place_file

File to dump placement information.

route_file

File to dump routing information.

Relevant flags to be set by the set command:

spfd_pdlo_logic_move_freq "r1 m1 r2 m2 ..."

Perform m1 logic moves whenever the rate of acceptance during simulated annealing is greater than or equal to r1, and so on. r1, r2, r3 ... should be monotonically decreasing, else the results would be unpredictable. 0 <= ri <= 1.0. For example:

set spfd_pdlo_logic_move_freq "0.8 0 0.5 5 0.2 10"

In the above logic schedule, zero logic moves per temperature will be performed when the rate of acceptance is above 0.8, 5 logic moves between 0.8 and 0.5, 10 moves between 0.5 and 0.2. As no value is specified for acceptance rate close to 0.0, by default, 1 logic move per temperature will be performed. In this example it will be 1 logic move between 0.2 and 0.0. The quotes around the schedule are necessary.

spfd_repl_rem

If no, the logic optimization performs only wire removal. If yes, both wire replacement and removal are performed.

spfd_pdlo_timing

If set, use timing driven method to remove or replace wires on the critical path. If not set, use bounding box of the wires as the cost function.

spfd_pdlo_timing_nodeorwire

Remove/replace all the wires belonging to the most critical net. If not set, attempt to remove/replace only the most critical wire.

spfd_pdlo_out_crit_nets_first

Output the circuit in VPR's .net format with the nets appearing in the increasing order of their slack. If not set, the initial net order specified in the original circuit's .net file is used. The file is specified with -n option. This variable is valid only if spfd_pdlo_timing is set.

spfd_pdlo_remap_clb_array

During logic optimization, due to the removal of nodes in the network, the current size of FPGA might be bigger than it is necessary. In such cases, if this variable is set, the size of the FPGA is reduced to fit the current logic network.

Relevant flags that are options to VPR:

For detailed information on the following options please refer to the manual that accompanies VPR source distribution.

vpr_nodisp
vpr_fix_pins
vpr_nx
vpr_ny
vpr_fast
vpr_init_t
vpr_alpha_t
vpr_exit_t
vpr_inner_num
vpr_seet
vpr_place_cost_exp
vpr_place_chan_width

]

SideEffects [The network is changed to reflect the wires/nodes removed or replaced. The internal function of the nodes is also changed. The partition attached to the network is changed accordingly.]
