Drivers may select this option to force specific constant

values for parameters 'm' (Galois field order) and 't'
|
|
(error correction capability). Those specific values must
|
|
be set by declaring default values for symbols BCH_CONST_M
|
|
and BCH_CONST_T.
|
|
Doing so will enable extra compiler optimizations,
|
|
improving encoding and decoding performance up to 2x for
|
|
usual (m,t) values (typically such that m*t < 200).
|
|
When this option is selected, the BCH library supports

only a single (m,t) configuration. This is mainly useful

for NAND flash board drivers requiring known, fixed BCH

parameters.
