✨ FSP ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to the CAO-VLSI Reference Manual entry for fsp β€” she's giving formal proof between two FSM descriptions and honestly? iconic. πŸ’…


🌸 ORIGIN 🌸

So this software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM, developed by the ASIM team at the LIP6 laboratory of UniversitΓ© Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. Like, literally Paris. Ooh la la. πŸ₯


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

fsp [-V] format1 format2 file1 file2

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Made to run on FSM descriptions, fsp supports the same subset of VHDL as syf (for further information about this subset see SYF(1) and FSM(5)). No cap.

fsp uses a Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams representation and computes the product of the two FSM descriptions. After this step, it explores the resulting FSM product and proves formally the equivalence between the two initial FSM descriptions. Those two descriptions must have the same interface (VHDL entity). Periodt. πŸ‘‘


🌈 ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES 🌈

  • MBK_WORK_LIB β€” gives the path for the FSM descriptions. The default value is the current directory.
  • MBK_CATA_LIB β€” gives some auxiliary paths for the FSM descriptions. The default value is the current directory.

πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

  • -V β€” Sets verbose mode on. Each step of the formal proof is displayed on the standard output. So you can literally watch her work. Obsessed. πŸ”₯

That's the whole vibe, bestie β€” go prove some equivalences and slay. πŸ’œβœ¨
