# toymap: Toy technology mapper

Toymap maps logic networks onto LUTs or simple logic gates. The basic principle is cutting up an And-Inverter Graph representing the desired logic function into small subgraphs such that each subgraph can be implemented with (mapped onto) a LUT or a simple gate. Technology mapping like this is a step in the compilation of logic designs to be programmed onto an FPGA or manufactured as an IC.

Some features:

* Employs the method of "priority cuts" to come up with candidate cuts of the graph (see the reference below)

* Attempts to preserve wire names

* Uses internal representation capable of expressing sequential circuits

* This isn't useful yet since only acyclic graphs can be mapped and sequential elements are ignored in depth estimation. Import, export and emission of LUTs do handle sequential circuits correctly.

* Integrates into [Yosys](https://github.com/yosysHQ/yosys)

* Comes with a pass for basic LUT4 graph rewriting

## Build

python3 pmgen.py lutcuts.pmg > lutcuts_pmg.h && yosys-config --build toymap.so toymap.cc lutdepth.cc post.cc --std=c++20

## Benchmarks

Following is a result of comparing ABC (invoked with the `abc -lut N` Yosys command) against toymap on the EPFL benchmarks (the `benchmarks/` submodule). On each benchmark LUT4 and LUT6 mappings are attempted, once with ABC, once with toymap, and once with toymap after ABC preprocessed the AIG (labeled abc+toymap). See `run_benchmark.tcl` for detailed commands.

Results as of toymap commit `8587180`:

Benchmark | abc LUT4 area | toymap LUT4 area | toymap/abc relative area | abc+toymap LUT4 area | abc+toymap/abc relative area | abc LUT4 depth | toymap LUT4 depth | abc+toymap LUT4 depth | abc LUT6 area | toymap LUT6 area | toymap/abc relative area | abc+toymap LUT6 area | abc+toymap/abc relative area | abc LUT6 depth | toymap LUT6 depth | abc+toymap LUT6 depth | extra toymap args (LUT4) | extra toymap args(LUT6)
