Calculation of 0xd1

m(x) = 0x11b = 100011011 = x^8 + x^4 + x^3 + x + 1
a(x) =   0xd1 =  11010001 = x^7 + x^6 + x^4 + 1

m(x) = (x + 1) * a(x) + (x^6 + x^5 + x^3)

Calculation of 0xd1^-1 in the finite field GF(2⁸)

01101000 = 00000001 * 100011011 + 00000011 * 11010001
00000001 = 00000010 * 100011011 + 00000111 * 11010001
00000000 = 11010001 * 100011011 + 100011011 * 11010001

a^-1(x) = x^2 + x + 1 = 00000111 = 0x07

The calculation of 0xd1^-1 is made with the Extended Euclidean algorithm. Instead of normal division and multiplication you need to use Polynomialdivision and Polynomialmultiplication.
