Hi James,

I ran:

valgrind --tool=memcheck ./encoder F 2 2 reed_sol_van 8 0 310

compiled from jerasure-1.2A as found at http://web.eecs.utk.edu/~plank/plank/papers/Jerasure-1.2A.tar
and compiled without modifications except for -g in the makefile to get the error lines.

==22001== Use of uninitialised value of size 8
==22001==    at 0x409CB1: galois_w08_region_multiply (galois.c:474)
==22001==    by 0x4061CD: jerasure_matrix_dotprod (jerasure.c:628)
==22001==    by 0x404F06: jerasure_matrix_encode (jerasure.c:313)
==22001==    by 0x40259C: main (encoder.c:518)

The input file contains (i.e. 310 bytes, no newline )

ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789

Should I be concerned about it ?

valgrind --tool=memcheck ./encoder F 2 2 cauchy_good 8 8 310

shows no error.

Cheers
