Hi Nicolas,
thanks a lot for your quick response.

Basically, when passing the generated LLRs vector to
bblib_ldpc_decode_5gnr()
(bblib_ldpc_decoder_5gnr_request request = {}; request.varNodes =
generated_llrs)
it is able to decode it.
However, converting the same vector to the bbdev format (from int8 vector
to uint32_t chain),
bbdev throws RTE_BBDEV_SYNDROME_ERROR with the "iterationAtTermination"
variable always
equals to the max number of iterations.

Where could I find the documentation you are referring to?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Ginés.
