Intel(R) Intelligent Storage Acceleration Library
=================================================
[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/01org/isa-l.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/01org/isa-l)
ISA-L is a collection of optimized low-level functions targeting storage
applications. ISA-L includes:
* Erasure codes - Fast block Reed-Solomon type erasure codes for any
encode/decode matrix in GF(2^8).
* CRC - Fast implementations of cyclic redundancy check. Six different
polynomials supported.
- iscsi32, ieee32, t10dif, ecma64, iso64, jones64.
* Raid - calculate and operate on XOR and P+Q parity found in common RAID
implementations.
* Compression - Fast deflate-compatible data compression.
* De-compression - Fast inflate-compatible data compression.
See [ISA-L for updates.](https://github.com/01org/isa-l)
For crypto functions see [isa-l_crypto on github.](https://github.com/01org/isa-l_crypto)
Build Prerequisites
===================
ISA-L requires yasm version 1.2.0 or later or nasm v2.11.01 or later. Building
with autotools requires autoconf/automake packages.
Building ISA-L
==============
Autotools
---------
To build and install the library with autotools it is usually sufficient to run
the following:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install
Other targets include: make check, make tests, make perfs, make ex (examples)
and make other.
Windows
-------
On Windows use nmake to build dll and static lib:
nmake -f Makefile.nmake
Other targes include: nmake check.
