A common pattern e.g. in libavcodec is replacing/updating buffer references: unref old one, ref new one. This function allows simplifying such code an avoiding unnecessary refs+unrefs if the references are already equivalent. --- Updated to not touch dst on failure.
Still not using buffer_replace(), since it does not seem to make the code simpler. --- doc/APIchanges | 3 +++ libavutil/buffer.c | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ libavutil/buffer.h | 16 ++++++++++++++++ libavutil/version.h | 2 +- 4 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/doc/APIchanges b/doc/APIchanges index 72a4833fbc..5a3f0165a8 100644 --- a/doc/APIchanges +++ b/doc/APIchanges @@ -15,6 +15,9 @@ libavutil: 2017-10-21 API changes, most recent first: +2020-xx-xx - xxxxxxxxxx - lavu 56.51.100 - buffer.h + Add a av_buffer_replace() convenience function. + 2020-07-xx - xxxxxxxxxx - lavu 56.57.100 - cpu.h Add AV_CPU_FLAG_MMI and AV_CPU_FLAG_MSA. diff --git a/libavutil/buffer.c b/libavutil/buffer.c index 38a554208a..39539f99e9 100644 --- a/libavutil/buffer.c +++ b/libavutil/buffer.c @@ -215,6 +215,32 @@ int av_buffer_realloc(AVBufferRef **pbuf, int size) return 0; } +int av_buffer_replace(AVBufferRef **pdst, AVBufferRef *src) +{ + AVBufferRef *dst = *pdst; + AVBufferRef *tmp; + + if (!src) { + av_buffer_unref(pdst); + return 0; + } + + if (dst && dst->buffer == src->buffer) { + /* make sure the data pointers match */ + dst->data = src->data; + dst->size = src->size; + return 0; + } + + tmp = av_buffer_ref(src); + if (!tmp) + return AVERROR(ENOMEM); + + av_buffer_unref(pdst); + *pdst = tmp; + return 0; +} + AVBufferPool *av_buffer_pool_init2(int size, void *opaque, AVBufferRef* (*alloc)(void *opaque, int size), void (*pool_free)(void *opaque)) diff --git a/libavutil/buffer.h b/libavutil/buffer.h index c0f3f6cc9a..fd4e381efa 100644 --- a/libavutil/buffer.h +++ b/libavutil/buffer.h @@ -197,6 +197,22 @@ int av_buffer_make_writable(AVBufferRef **buf); */ int av_buffer_realloc(AVBufferRef **buf, int size); +/** + * Ensure dst refers to the same data as src. + * + * When *dst is already equivalent to src, do nothing.
