From 7150962d637cf38617924f7f72ea00612283eb89 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arend van Spriel Date: Tue, 31 May 2011 11:22:15 +0200 Subject: 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.

Feedback received from John Linville suggested that these kind of functions should be made available to others as a library function in the kernel tree. The b43 driver also has a cordic angle calculation implemented. Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Cc: "John W.
