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)
