<TITLE>CRC Algorithms</TITLE>
<PARTINTRO>
<PARA>
The CRC package provides implementation of CRC algorithms. This
includes the POSIX CRC calculation which produces the same result as
the cksum command on Linux, another 32 bit CRC by Gary S. Brown and a
16bit CRC. The CRC used for Ethernet FCS is also implemented.

<TITLE>CRC API</TITLE>
<para>
The package implements a number of CRC functions as described below.
The API to these functions is in the include file
<filename>cyg/crc/crc.h</filename>.
</para>
<sect2 id="services-crc-api-cyg-posix-crc32">
<title>cyg_posix_crc32</title>
<para>
This function implements a 32 bit CRC which is compliant to the POSIX
1008.2 Standard. This is the same as the Linux cksum program.
</para>
<programlisting>
cyg_uint32 cyg_posix_crc32(unsigned char * s, int len);
</programlisting>
<para>
The CRC calculation is run over the data pointed to by
<parameter>s</parameter>, of length <parameter>len</parameter>. The
CRC is returned as an unsigned long.</para>

<sect2 id="services-crc-api-cyg-crc32">
<title>cyg_crc32</title>
<para>
These functions implement a 32 bit CRC by Gary S. Brown. They use the
polynomial
X^32+X^26+X^23+X^22+X^16+X^12+X^11+X^10+X^8+X^7+X^5+X^4+X^2+X^1+X^0.

<programlisting>

cyg_uint32 cyg_crc32_accumulate(cyg_uint32 crc, unsigned char * s, int len);
</programlisting>
<para>
The CRC calculation is run over the data pointed to by
<parameter>s</parameter>, of length <parameter>len</parameter>. The
CRC is returned as an unsigned long.</para>
<para> The CRC can be calculated over data separated into multiple
buffers by using the function <parameter> cyg_crc32_accumulate()
</parameter>. The parameter <parameter>crc</parameter> should be the
result from the previous CRC calculation.

<sect2 id="services-crc-api-cyg-ether-crc32">
<title>cyg_ether_crc32</title>
<para>
These functions implement the 32 bit CRC used by the Ethernet FCS word.

<sect2 id="services-crc-api-cyg-crc16">
<title>cyg_crc16</title>
<para>
This function implements a 16 bit CRC. It uses the polynomial
x^16+x^12+x^5+1.
</para>

CRC is returned as an unsigned short.</para>
