Subject: Validation error in LDPC decoding
Hello Devs,

I hope this email finds you well.

I am reaching out to seek assistance regarding an issue I am facing in 
DPDK-BBdev utility, (v22.11).

I am performing some tests over a 5G Accelerator, ACC200 using DPDK-BBdev. I am 
creating custom test-vector files to generate custom load over the ACC200 
device. Currently, I am performing the LDPC decoding test through code block 
mode. I am creating the test-vector files with help of an open-source library, 
sionna (https://nvlabs.github.io/sionna/). Following are the steps to create 
input0 and output0 used in BBdev vector file. I have pulled out this code form 
the following reference: https://github.com/NVlabs/sionna/discussions/54.

k, n, q_m = 32, 64, 2
encoder = sn.fec.ldpc.LDPC5GEncoder(k, n, num_bits_per_symbol=q_m)
c = encoder(u)

e = c.numpy()

for i in range(e.shape[0]):
    for j in flipped_positions[i]:
        e[i][j] = 1.0 if e[i][j] == 0.0 else 0.0
e = tf.convert_to_tensor(e, np.float32)
decoder = sn.fec.ldpc.LDPC5GDecoder(encoder, hard_out=True, 
return_infobits=True, num_iter=20, cn_type="minsum")
w = decoder(2*e - 1)

When I use w as input0 and u as output0 in BBdev vector file I face following 
validation error:

Enqueue 32 reqs (phys 0x17ff80000) to reg 0x1180000000
Debug : MMIO Enqueue
TestCase check_dec_status_and_ordering() line 1936 failed: op_status (8) != 
expected_status (0)
TestCase validate_ldpc_dec_op() line 2328 failed (err -1): Checking status and 
ordering for decoder failed
TestCase latency_test_ldpc_dec() line 4645 failed (err -1): Validation failed!
727:get_stats_from_queues() Got stats on 0

602:rte_bbdev_stop() Stopped device 0
TestCase [ 0] : validation_tc failed
647:rte_bbdev_close() Closed device 0

Please find below the BBdev vector file created for the same

op_type =
RTE_BBDEV_OP_LDPC_DEC

input0=
0xff01ff01,0x0101ff01,0x0101ff01,0x01010101,0x0101ff01,0xff010101,0x01010101,0x01010101,0xff01ff01,0x0101ff01,0xff010101,0xffffff01,0xff0101ff,0x0101ff01,0xffff0101,0xff0101ff

output0=
0xffffffff

basegraph=
2

z_c=
8

q_m=
2

n_filler=
28

n_cb=
300

e=
64

rv_index =
0

code_block_mode =
1

iter_max =
20

expected_iter_count =
20

op_flags =
RTE_BBDEV_LDPC_ITERATION_STOP_ENABLE

expected_status =
OK

I would like to understand what incorrect configuration am I using?

Any insights or guidance to help resolve this issue would be highly 
appreciated. If you need any more details, please feel free to ask.
