Rsyn

Getting Started | Tutorials | Wiki | Benchmarks

Rsyn is an open-source C++ framework for physical synthesis research and education.

Typical optimizations that can be built on top of Rsyn include but not limited to placement, routing, sizing and buffering.

The framework integrates parsers for common academic and industrial formats as Bookshelf, LEF/DEF, Verilog, Liberty, SDC and SPEF. It provides support for benchmarks from several EDA contests (e.g ISPD, ICCAD).

Standard tools as static timing analysis (STA), routing and congestion estimation are included. A built-in graphics user interface (GUI) is also available.

The netlist data model makes use of the new features of C++11. So it becomes very natural and easy to traverse the netlist.

// Traverse pins in reverse topological order.
for (Rsyn::Pin pin : module.allPinsInReverseTopologicalOrder()) {
	for (Rsyn::Arc arc : pin.allOutgoingArcs()) { /**/ }
	for (Rsyn::Arc arc : pin.allIncomingArcs()) { /**/ }

	Rsyn::Net net = pin.getNet();
	if (!net) {
		std::cout << “Unconnected pin ‘” + pin.getFullName() + “‘\n”;
	} // end if
} // end for 

Objects can be extended via attributes, which internally handle modifications in the netlist.

// Creating a new attribute called “visited” to the nets
Rsyn::Attribute<Rsyn::Net, int> attr = design.createAttribute();

for (Rsyn::Net net : module.allNets()) {
	attr[net] = computeSomething(net); 
} // end for

Rsyn::Net newNet = module.createNet();
attr[newNet] = computeSomething(net);
