raid6

This library implement the raid6 recovery algorithms with generic programming technique.

compile passed on:

• gcc 4.6.1 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.1-9ubuntu3)
• Visual Studio 2010 SP1 (Windows7 Enterprise SP1 64bit)

Directories:

• raid6_lib: contains the implementation of this library. modify raid6.config.hpp for change compile time config

• raid6_test: the testing/sample for using this library

Usage:

step 1, Config .\raid6_lib\raid6_config.hpp as your requirement.

To build row parity and diagonal parity:

#include "raid6.hpp"
using namespace raid6;
...
    CRaid6 R6; 
    R6.recover( pointerArrayToTheBuffersOnEachDisk, numBytesOfEachBuffer, numDisk, 
    	eRowIdx, eDiaIdx);

To recover data on any missing disks.(make missingDiskIndex1==missingDiskIndex2 in case one disk missing)

    R6.recover( pointerArrayToTheBuffersOnEachDisk, numBytesOfEachBuffer, numDisk,
    	missingDiskIndex1, missingDiskIndex2);
