CRC object provides CRC generation through hardware or software.
CRC sums can be generated using three different methods: hardware, software ROM tables and bitwise computation. The mode used is selected automatically based on required polynomial and hardware capabilities. Any polynomial in standard form (x^3 + x + 1
) can be used for computation, but custom ones can affect the performance.
First choice is the hardware mode. The supported polynomials are hardware specific, and you need to consult your MCU manual to discover them. Next, ROM polynomial tables are tried (you can find list of supported polynomials here crc_polynomial). If the selected configuration is supported, it will accelerate the software computations. If ROM tables are not available for the selected polynomial, then CRC is computed at run time bit by bit for all data input.

Compute partial CRC for the data input.
CRC data if not available fully, CRC can be computed in parts with available data.
In case of hardware, intermediate values and states are saved by hardware. Mutex locking is used to serialize access to hardware CRC.
In case of software CRC, previous CRC output should be passed as argument to the current compute_partial call. Please note the intermediate CRC value is maintained by application and not the driver.
compute_partial_start
to start the partial CRC calculation. compute_partial_stop
to get the final CRC value.buffer | Data bytes |
size | Size of data |
crc | CRC value is intermediate CRC value filled by API. |
compute_partial_stop
to get final correct CRC value. int32_t compute_partial_start | ( | uint32_t * | crc | ) |
Compute partial start, indicate start of partial computation.
This API should be called before performing any partial computation with compute_partial API.
crc | Initial CRC value set by the API |
compute_partial_stop
without any modifications in application. int32_t compute_partial_stop | ( | uint32_t * | crc | ) |
Get the final CRC value of partial computation.
CRC value available in partial computation is not correct CRC, as some algorithms require remainder to be reflected and final value to be XORed This API is used to perform final computation to get correct CRC value.
