Thank you. But the polynomial value for CCITT crc32 is 104c11db7, not its tail 04c11db7. And this whole mess with all those online calculators was the exact reson I asked here. Because they mostly give WRONG result. As your example. It's easy to check it's wrong. Because for example leading zeroes in the message MUST not change the Crc32. Here we have: for 01 -> CD39D477 for 00 01 -> D71E16AC and so on. Also, it's obvious that Crc32(1) would be a polynomial without the most significant non-zero bit, thus crc32 from 1 by the polynomial 104c11db7 would be 04c11b7. The only online calculator so far giving right results is here: https://ghsi.de/CRC/index.php?Polynom=100000100110000010001110110110111&Message=0104c11db7
I wrote function following the mathematics of the Crc and it gives results exactly like in the above calculator. It's fun to imagine what happens with such an incompatibilty for example in case of GPT header. 2016-08-30 14:08 GMT+03:00, Michael Zimmermann <sigmaepsilo...@gmail.com>: > well as u already said, the spec says it uses 'a standard CCITT32 CRC > algorithm with a seed polynomial value of 0x04c11db7' > > this is the implementation which confirms it: > https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/blob/master/MdeModulePkg/Core/RuntimeDxe/Crc32.c > > after testing it it indeed produces CCITT32 results like this online > generator: > http://g6auc.me.uk/CRC32/index.html > > Thanks > Michael > > On Tue, Aug 30, 2016 at 2:54 AM, valerij zaporogeci <vlrzpr...@gmail.com> > wrote: > >> Hi, all. >> Yet another dumb question from me. >> UEFI specification has Crc32 calculation service and uses Crc32 in >> several places. but it only humbly mentions in the note somewhere in >> the description of System Table about what exact one it wants.
