  NAME

    xrle - Run Length Encoding interface

  DESCRIPTION

    The Run Length Encoding (RLE) board provides a hardware-driven mechanism
    to run length encode data with various formats from the raster processing
    pipeline to virtual memory.  The RLE board in the lowest Shared Resource
    (SR) Bus slot number supports channel 0, the next RLE board supports
    channel 1, and so on.

    Parameters pertaining to line width, swath size, margins and data format
    must be specified with rle_setup() before any data is processed.

    To run length encode data from the pipe to memory, use rle_pipe_mem()
    specifying a channel currently open from rle_open().
