init_rs(9)
NAME
init_rs - Find a matching or allocate a new rs control structure
SYNOPSIS
struct rs_control * init_rs(int symsize, int gfpoly, int fcr, int prim,
int nroots);
ARGUMENTS
- symsize
- the symbol size (number of bits)
- gfpoly
- the extended Galois field generator polynomial coefficients, with
the 0th coefficient in the low order bit. The polynomial must be
primitive; - fcr
- the first consecutive root of the rs code generator polynomial in
index form - prim
- primitive element to generate polynomial roots
- nroots
- RS code generator polynomial degree (number of roots)
