The init function init_rs returns a pointer to an
rs decoder structure, which holds the necessary
information for encoding, decoding and error correction
with the given polynomial. It either uses an existing
matching decoder or creates a new one. On creation all
the lookup tables for fast en/decoding are created.
The function may take a while, so make sure not to
call it in critical code paths.

The expanded data can be inverted on the fly by
providing a non-zero inversion mask. The expanded data is

ECC, where the all 0xFF is inverted to an all 0x00.
The Reed-Solomon code for all 0x00 is all 0x00. The
code is inverted before storing to FLASH so it is 0xFF
too. This prevents that reading from an erased FLASH
results in ECC errors.

Reed-Solomon Library Programming Interface
==========================================
:Author: Thomas Gleixner
Introduction
============
The generic Reed-Solomon Library provides encoding, decoding and error
correction functions.
Reed-Solomon codes are used in communication and storage applications to
ensure data integrity.
This documentation is provided for developers who want to utilize the
functions provided by the library.
Known Bugs And Assumptions
==========================
None.
Usage
=====
This chapter provides examples of how to use the library.
Initializing
------------
The init function init_rs returns a pointer to an rs decoder structure,
which holds the necessary information for encoding, decoding and error
correction with the given polynomial. It either uses an existing
matching decoder or creates a new one. On creation all the lookup tables
for fast en/decoding are created. The function may take a while, so make
sure not to call it in critical code paths.
::
/* the Reed Solomon control structure */
static struct rs_control *rs_decoder;
/* Symbolsize is 10 (bits)
* Primitive polynomial is x^10+x^3+1
* first consecutive root is 0
* primitive element to generate roots = 1
* generator polynomial degree (number of roots) = 6
*/
rs_decoder = init_rs (10, 0x409, 0, 1, 6);
Encoding
--------
The encoder calculates the Reed-Solomon code over the given data length
and stores the result in the parity buffer. Note that the parity buffer
must be initialized before calling the encoder.
The expanded data can be inverted on the fly by providing a non-zero
inversion mask. The expanded data is XOR'ed with the mask. This is used
e.g. for FLASH ECC, where the all 0xFF is inverted to an all 0x00. The
Reed-Solomon code for all 0x00 is all 0x00. The code is inverted before
storing to FLASH so it is 0xFF too. This prevents that reading from an
erased FLASH results in ECC errors.
The databytes are expanded to the given symbol size on the fly. There is
no support for encoding continuous bitstreams with a symbol size != 8 at
the moment. If it is necessary it should be not a big deal to implement
such functionality.
::
/* Parity buffer. Size = number of roots */
uint16_t par[6];
/* Initialize the parity buffer */
memset(par, 0, sizeof(par));
/* Encode 512 byte in data8. Store parity in buffer par */
encode_rs8 (rs_decoder, data8, 512, par, 0);
Decoding
--------
The decoder calculates the syndrome over the given data length and the
received parity symbols and corrects errors in the data.
If a syndrome is available from a hardware decoder then the syndrome
calculation is skipped.
The correction of the data buffer can be suppressed by providing a
correction pattern buffer and an error location buffer to the decoder.
The decoder stores the calculated error location and the correction
bitmask in the given buffers. This is useful for hardware decoders which
use a weird bit ordering scheme.

no support for decoding continuous bitstreams with a symbolsize != 8 at
the moment. If it is necessary it should be not a big deal to implement
such functionality.
Decoding with syndrome calculation, direct data correction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
::
/* Parity buffer. Size = number of roots */
uint16_t par[6];
uint8_t data[512];
int numerr;
/* Receive data */
.....
/* Receive parity */
.....
/* Decode 512 byte in data8.*/
numerr = decode_rs8 (rs_decoder, data8, par, 512, NULL, 0, NULL, 0, NULL);
Decoding with syndrome given by hardware decoder, direct data correction
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
::
/* Parity buffer. Size = number of roots */
uint16_t par[6], syn[6];
uint8_t data[512];
int numerr;
/* Receive data */
.....
/* Receive parity */
.....
/* Get syndrome from hardware decoder */
.....
/* Decode 512 byte in data8.*/
numerr = decode_rs8 (rs_decoder, data8, par, 512, syn, 0, NULL, 0, NULL);
Decoding with syndrome given by hardware decoder, no direct data correction.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note: It's not necessary to give data and received parity to the
decoder.
::
/* Parity buffer. Size = number of roots */
uint16_t par[6], syn[6], corr[8];
uint8_t data[512];
int numerr, errpos[8];
/* Receive data */
.....
/* Receive parity */
.....
/* Get syndrome from hardware decoder */
.....
/* Decode 512 byte in data8.*/
numerr = decode_rs8 (rs_decoder, NULL, NULL, 512, syn, 0, errpos, 0, corr);
for (i = 0; i < numerr; i++) {
do_error_correction_in_your_buffer(errpos[i], corr[i]);
}
Cleanup
-------
The function free_rs frees the allocated resources, if the caller is
the last user of the decoder.
::
/* Release resources */
free_rs(rs_decoder);
