The code comment says that the polynomial is x^16 + x^12 + x^15 + 1, but the correct polynomial is x^16 + x^12 + x^5 + 1. Quoting from page 2 in the ITU-T V.41 specification [1]: 2 Encoding and checking process The service bits and information bits, taken in conjunction, correspond to the coefficients of a message polynomial having terms from x^(n-1) (n = total number of bits in a block or sequence) down to x^16. This polynomial is divided, modulo 2, by the generating polynomial x^16 + x^12 + x^5 + 1. The hex (truncated) polynomial 0x1021 and CRC code implementation are correct, however.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
