Detailed Description

template<uint32_t polynomial = POLY_32BIT_ANSI, uint8_t width = 32>
class mbed::MbedCRC< polynomial, width >

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.

Note
Synchronization level: Thread safe
Template Parameters
polynomialCRC polynomial value in hex
widthCRC polynomial width

Example: Compute CRC data

#include "mbed.h"
int main() {
MbedCRC<POLY_32BIT_ANSI, 32> ct;
char test[] = "123456789";
uint32_t crc = 0;
printf("\nPolynomial = 0x%lx Width = %d \n", ct.get_polynomial(), ct.get_width());
ct.compute((void *)test, strlen((const char*)test), &crc);
printf("The CRC of data \"123456789\" is : 0x%lx\n", crc);
return 0;
}

Example: Compute CRC with data available in parts

#include "mbed.h"
int main() {
MbedCRC<POLY_32BIT_ANSI, 32> ct;
char test[] = "123456789";
uint32_t crc = 0;
printf("\nPolynomial = 0x%lx Width = %d \n", ct.get_polynomial(), ct.get_width());
ct.compute_partial_start(&crc);
ct.compute_partial((void *)&test, 4, &crc);
ct.compute_partial((void *)&test[4], 5, &crc);
ct.compute_partial_stop(&crc);
printf("The CRC of data \"123456789\" is : 0x%lx\n", crc);
return 0;
}

Member Function Documentation

int32_t compute ( const void *  buffer,
crc_data_size_t  size,
uint32_t *  crc 
)

Compute CRC for the data input Compute CRC performs the initialization, computation and collection of final CRC.

Parameters
bufferData bytes
sizeSize of data
crcCRC is the output value
Returns
0 on success, negative error code on failure

Definition at line 156 of file MbedCRC.h.

int32_t compute_partial ( const void *  buffer,
crc_data_size_t  size,
uint32_t *  crc 
)

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.

Precondition
: Call compute_partial_start to start the partial CRC calculation.
Postcondition
: Call compute_partial_stop to get the final CRC value.
Parameters
bufferData bytes
sizeSize of data
crcCRC value is intermediate CRC value filled by API.
Returns
0 on success or a negative error code on failure
Note
: CRC as output in compute_partial is not final CRC value, call compute_partial_stop to get final correct CRC value.

Definition at line 203 of file MbedCRC.h.

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.

Parameters
crcInitial CRC value set by the API
Returns
0 on success or a negative in case of failure
Note
: CRC is an out parameter and must be reused with compute_partial and compute_partial_stop without any modifications in application.

Definition at line 238 of file MbedCRC.h.

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.

Parameters
crcCRC result
Returns
0 on success or a negative in case of failure.

Definition at line 270 of file MbedCRC.h.

uint32_t get_polynomial ( void  ) const

Get the current CRC polynomial.

Returns
Polynomial value

Definition at line 299 of file MbedCRC.h.

uint8_t get_width ( void  ) const

Get the current CRC width.

Returns
CRC width

Definition at line 308 of file MbedCRC.h.
