This is revision 2.0 of Jerasure. This is pretty much Jerasure 1.2 without the
|
|
|
|
original Galois Field backend. Version 2.0 links directly to GF-Complete.

on GF-Complete and the tarball needed to install it.

Custom usgae of GF-Complete is explained in this file (see below).

|
NOTE: You must have GF-Complete installed in order to use Jerasure 2.0.

There are two directories:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The home directory contains the jerasure code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Examples directory contains the example programs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The makefile assumes that Examples is a subdirectory of the home directory.

Inclusion of GF-Complete:

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As long as GF-Complete is installed, Jerasure 2.0 can be used just as previous
|
|
|
|
versions. There is no need to define custom Galois Fields. Jerasure will
|
|
|
|
determine the default field to use, if one is not specified.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you would like to explore a using a different Galois Field implementation,
|
|
|
|
you can dynamically set the backend GF for a given word-size (w).
