INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To build and install the libfec libraries, simply say
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
./configure
 | 
						|
make
 | 
						|
make test (optional)
 | 
						|
make install (as root)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
By default, "make install" puts the libfec libraries in
 | 
						|
/usr/local/lib, the include files in /usr/local/include, and the
 | 
						|
manual page in /usr/local/man.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You may have an old version of the GNU assembler that cannot handle
 | 
						|
the relatively new SSE2 mnemonics. Update your version of the GNU
 | 
						|
"binutils" package.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
You may obtain the latest binutils package through your normal
 | 
						|
distribution channels or from:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
http://sources.redhat.com/binutils/
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
TESTING THE FEC LIBRARY
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
After running the ./configure script, optional tests can be built and
 | 
						|
run as follows:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
make test
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
"make test" tests each routine, using the SIMD versions as
 | 
						|
appropriate, verifying correct operation and estimating Viterbi
 | 
						|
decoding speeds. These tests should always succeed unless something is
 | 
						|
broken.
