The checksums for the randomly-generated test cases were calculated

I'd just use a naïve implementation - doesn't really matter
if it is a bit slow.

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that it makes more sense to use a naive implementation to validate the results from the kernel's crc16 instead of having a table of pre-computed results. I will include in v2 a bog-standard implementation of crc16 similar to yours (using a loop instead of a lookup table) to validate the results.

Thanks,

Slow is relative - this code only takes 35ms to crc-64 over 5MB of data.

{
     volatile const uint32_t *r = (const void *)buf;
     for (crc = 0; r < (const uint32_t *)buf_end; r++) {
         uint64_t val = le32toh(*r);
         crc ^= bswap64(val);
         for (i = 0; i < 32; i++) {
             if (crc & (1ull << 63))
                 crc = (crc << 1) ^ 0x42f0e1eba9ea3693ull;
             else
                 crc = crc << 1;
         }
     }
}

        David
