Package: yosys

Dear Maintainer,
I use yosys to synthesize for the iCE40UP and GateMate FPGAs. IMO, the current
upstream release 0.38 has substantial improvements over the 0.33 release
currently in Debian. In particular, I use the improved support for abc9 and
SystemVerilog. I currently have upstream yosys installed, but it would be nice
to be able to just use the Debian package instead.
Regards,
Philipp
Hi,
Just an additional argument for upgrading yosys to a recent version.
There is a promising SystemVerilog frontend plugin "yosys-slang"
(https://github.com/povik/yosys-slang) that has even be used for real
asic tapeout (http://asic.ethz.ch/2024/MLEM.html).
Because of changes in yosys internal API it only supports yosys version
above 0.44 (yosys 0.49 was release this week).
Also, it would be nice to consider packaging this plugin (even if
actually it is not very mature).
