struct spa_meta  metas[],
uint32_t  n_datas,
struct spa_data  datas[],
uint32_t  data_aligns[] 
)
inlinestatic

Fill buffer allocation information.

Fill info with allocation information needed to allocate buffers with the given number of metadata and data members.

The required size of the skeleton (the struct spa_buffer) information and the memory (for the metadata, chunk and buffer memory) will be calculated.

The flags member in info should be configured before calling this functions.

Parameters
infothe information to fill
n_metasthe number of metadatas for the buffer
metasan array of metadata items
n_datasthe number of datas for the buffer
datasan array of n_datas items
data_alignsn_datas alignments
Returns
0 on success.

void *  skel_mem,
void *  data_mem 
)
inlinestatic

Fill skeleton and data according to the allocation info.

Use the allocation info to create a struct Buffers into skel_mem and data_mem.

Depending on the flags given when calling spa_buffer_alloc_fill_info(), the buffer meta, chunk and memory will be referenced in either skel_mem or data_mem.

Parameters
infoan allocation info
skel_memmemory to hold the struct Buffers and the pointers to meta, chunk and memory.
data_memmemory to hold the meta, chunk and memory
Returns
a struct Buffers in skel_mem

uint32_t  n_buffers,
struct spa_buffer buffers[],
void *  skel_mem,
void *  data_mem 
)
inlinestatic

Layout an array of buffers.

Use the allocation info to layout the memory of an array of buffers.

skel_mem should point to at least info->skel_size * n_buffers bytes of memory. data_mem should point to at least info->mem_size * n_buffers bytes of memory.

Parameters
infothe allocation info for one buffer
n_buffersthe number of buffers to create
buffersa array with space to hold n_buffers pointers to buffers
skel_memmemory for the struct Buffers
data_memmemory for the meta, chunk, memory of the buffer if not inlined in the skeleton.
Returns
0 on success.

uint32_t  n_datas,
struct spa_data  datas[],
uint32_t  data_aligns[] 
)
inlinestatic

Allocate an array of buffers.

Allocate n_buffers with the given metadata, memory and alignment information.

The buffer array, structures, data and metadata will all be allocated in one block of memory with the proper requested alignment.

Parameters
n_buffersthe number of buffers to create
flagsextra flags
n_metasnumber of metadatas
metasn_metas metadata specification
n_datasnumber of datas
datasn_datas memory specification
data_alignsn_datas alignment specifications
