| | | * @{ |
| | | * AVBuffer is an API for reference-counted data buffers. |
| | | * |
| | | * There are two core objects in this API -- AVBuffer and AVBufferRef. AVBuffer |
| | | * represents the data buffer itself; it is opaque and not meant to be accessed |
| | | * by the caller directly, but only through AVBufferRef. However, the caller may |
| | | * e.g. compare two AVBuffer pointers to check whether two different references |
| | | * are describing the same data buffer. AVBufferRef represents a single |
| | | * reference to an AVBuffer and it is the object that may be manipulated by the |
| | | * caller directly. |
| | | * |
| | | * There are two functions provided for creating a new AVBuffer with a single |
| | | * reference -- av_buffer_alloc() to just allocate a new buffer, and |
| | | * av_buffer_create() to wrap an existing array in an AVBuffer. From an existing |
| | | * reference, additional references may be created with av_buffer_ref(). |
| | | * Use av_buffer_unref() to free a reference (this will automatically free the |
| | | * data once all the references are freed). |
| | | * |
| | | * The convention throughout this API and the rest of FFmpeg is such that the |
| | | * buffer is considered writable if there exists only one reference to it (and |
| | | * it has not been marked as read-only). The av_buffer_is_writable() function is |
| | | * provided to check whether this is true and av_buffer_make_writable() will |
| | | * automatically create a new writable buffer when necessary. |
| | | * Of course nothing prevents the calling code from violating this convention, |
| | | * however that is safe only when all the existing references are under its |
| | | * control. |
| | | * |
| | | * @note Referencing and unreferencing the buffers is thread-safe and thus |
| | | * may be done from multiple threads simultaneously without any need for |
| | | * additional locking. |
| | | * |
| | | * @note Two different references to the same buffer can point to different |
| | | * parts of the buffer (i.e. their AVBufferRef.data will not be equal). |

| | | * Frequently allocating and freeing large buffers may be slow. AVBufferPool is |
| | | * meant to solve this in cases when the caller needs a set of buffers of the |
| | | * same size (the most obvious use case being buffers for raw video or audio |
| | | * frames). |
| | | * |
| | | * At the beginning, the user must call av_buffer_pool_init() to create the |
| | | * buffer pool. Then whenever a buffer is needed, call av_buffer_pool_get() to |
| | | * get a reference to a new buffer, similar to av_buffer_alloc(). This new |
| | | * reference works in all aspects the same way as the one created by |
| | | * av_buffer_alloc(). However, when the last reference to this buffer is |
| | | * unreferenced, it is returned to the pool instead of being freed and will be |
| | | * reused for subsequent av_buffer_pool_get() calls. |
| | | * |
| | | * When the caller is done with the pool and no longer needs to allocate any new |
| | | * buffers, av_buffer_pool_uninit() must be called to mark the pool as freeable. |
| | | * Once all the buffers are released, it will automatically be freed. |
| | | * |
| | | * Allocating and releasing buffers with this API is thread-safe as long as |
| | | * either the default alloc callback is used, or the user-supplied one is |
| | | * thread-safe. |
