Hello together, for the purpose of building or analyzing a frame in Retransmission and Flow control mode within the L2CAP layer the Bluetooth Specification demands to make use of a 16 bit Frame Check Sequence with the generator polynomial of g(D) = D^{16} + D^{15} + D^2 + 1. Now I'm curious whether there exists an easy to use built-in kernel function for? Does anybody know how to build a FCS over the data portion of a socket buffer?
