Detailed Description

The following functions are required to be implemented for all codecs that advertise the VPX_CODEC_CAP_XMA capability. Calling these functions for codecs that don't advertise this capability will result in an error code being returned, usually VPX_CODEC_INCAPABLE

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct vpx_codec_mmap vpx_codec_mmap_t

Memory Map Entry.

This structure is used to contain the properties of a memory segment. It is populated by the codec in the request phase, and by the calling application once the requested allocation has been performed. alias for struct vpx_codec_mmap

Function Documentation

vpx_codec_err_t vpx_codec_get_mem_map	(	vpx_codec_ctx_t *	ctx,
		vpx_codec_mmap_t *	mmap,
		vpx_codec_iter_t *	iter
	)

Iterate over the list of segments to allocate.

Iterates over a list of the segments to allocate. The iterator storage should be initialized to NULL to start the iteration. Iteration is complete when this function returns VPX_CODEC_LIST_END. The amount of memory needed to allocate is dependent upon the size of the encoded stream. In cases where the stream is not available at allocation time, a fixed size must be requested. The codec will not be able to operate on streams larger than the size used at allocation time.

Parameters:

[in]	ctx	Pointer to this instance's context.
[out]	mmap	Pointer to the memory map entry to populate.
[in,out]	iter	Iterator storage, initialized to NULL

Return values:

	VPX_CODEC_OK	The memory map entry was populated.
	VPX_CODEC_ERROR	Codec does not support XMA mode.
	VPX_CODEC_MEM_ERROR	Unable to determine segment size from stream info.

vpx_codec_err_t vpx_codec_set_mem_map	(	vpx_codec_ctx_t *	ctx,
		vpx_codec_mmap_t *	mmaps,
		unsigned int	num_maps
	)

Identify allocated segments to codec instance.

Stores a list of allocated segments in the codec. Segments MUST be passed in the order they are read from vpx_codec_get_mem_map(), but may be passed in groups of any size. Segments MUST be set only once. The allocation function MUST ensure that the vpx_codec_mmap_t::base member is non-NULL. If the segment requires cleanup handling (e.g., calling free() or close()) then the vpx_codec_mmap_t::dtor member MUST be populated.

Parameters:

[in]	ctx	Pointer to this instance's context.
[in]	mmaps	Pointer to the first memory map entry in the list.
[in]	num_maps	Number of entries being set at this time

Return values:

	VPX_CODEC_OK	The segment was stored in the codec context.
	VPX_CODEC_INCAPABLE	Codec does not support XMA mode.
	VPX_CODEC_MEM_ERROR	Segment base address was not set, or segment was already stored.
