ACT Passes

The ACT hardware description framework permits users to define their own analysis passes and insert them into the silicon compilation flow. This repository contains an example pass that can be loaded in dynamically into the interact interactive ACT system.

A number of existing core passes are written this way, including the layout generation passes.

For additional documentation, run doxygen.

Running the example

To run this example, you need the ACT standard library and interact installed. After that,

  • Build the pass using make This will install test_pass.so into $ACT_HOME/lib

To see the pass in action, run the interact script test.ia provided.

$ interact
interact> source test.ia
Hello, initialized pass!
