Randy Dunlap	8a29896a6e	docs: clean up and add rest of CRC functions to kernel-api.rst ... Add the rest of the CRC library functions to kernel-api. - try to clarify crc32() by adding '@' to a function parameter - reorder kernel-api CRC functions to be less random - add more CRC functions to kernel-api - correct the function parameter names in several places Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>	2017-09-26 15:01:20 -06:00
Arend van Spriel	7150962d63	lib: crc8: add new library module providing crc8 algorithm ... The brcm80211 driver in staging tree uses a crc8 function. Based on feedback from John Linville to move this to lib directory, the linux source has been searched. Although there is currently only one other kernel driver using this algorithm (ie. drivers/ssb) we are providing this as a library function for others to use.
