Circular Buffer
[Audio Manipulation Algorithms]

Circular buffer manages read and write contiguous audio samples in a non-contiguous buffer as if the buffer were contiguous. This should give better performance than keeping contiguous samples in a contiguous buffer, since read/write operations will only update the pointers, instead of shifting audio samples. More...

Function Documentation

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_create	(	pj_pool_t *	pool,
		unsigned	capacity,
		pjmedia_circ_buf **	p_cb
	)

Create the circular buffer.

Parameters:

	pool	Pool where the circular buffer will be allocated from.
	capacity	Capacity of the buffer, in samples.
	p_cb	Pointer to receive the circular buffer instance.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS if the circular buffer has been created successfully, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_reset

(

pjmedia_circ_buf *

circbuf

)

Reset the circular buffer.

Parameters:

circbuf

The circular buffer.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful.

References PJ_INLINE, and PJ_SUCCESS.

unsigned pjmedia_circ_buf_get_len

(

pjmedia_circ_buf *

circbuf

)

Get the circular buffer length, it is number of samples buffered in the circular buffer.

Parameters:

circbuf

The circular buffer.

Returns:

The buffer length.

References PJ_INLINE.

void pjmedia_circ_buf_set_len	(	pjmedia_circ_buf *	circbuf,
		unsigned	len
	)

Set circular buffer length. This is useful when audio buffer is manually manipulated by the user, e.g: shrinked, expanded.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	len	The new buffer length.

References PJ_INLINE.

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_adv_read_ptr	(	pjmedia_circ_buf *	circbuf,
		unsigned	count
	)

Advance the read pointer of circular buffer. This function will discard the skipped samples while advancing the read pointer, thus reducing the buffer length.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	count	Distance from current read pointer, can only be possitive number, in samples.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_adv_write_ptr	(	pjmedia_circ_buf *	circbuf,
		unsigned	count
	)

Advance the write pointer of circular buffer. Since write pointer is always pointing to a sample after the end of sample, so this function also means increasing the buffer length.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	count	Distance from current write pointer, can only be possitive number, in samples.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.

		pj_int16_t **	reg1,
		unsigned *	reg1_len,
		pj_int16_t **	reg2,
		unsigned *	reg2_len
	)

Get the real buffer addresses containing the audio samples.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	reg1	Pointer to store the first buffer address.
	reg1_len	Pointer to store the length of the first buffer, in samples.
	reg2	Pointer to store the second buffer address.
	reg2_len	Pointer to store the length of the second buffer, in samples.

		unsigned *	reg2_len
	)

Get the real buffer addresses that is empty or writeable.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	reg1	Pointer to store the first buffer address.
	reg1_len	Pointer to store the length of the first buffer, in samples.
	reg2	Pointer to store the second buffer address.

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_read	(	pjmedia_circ_buf *	circbuf,
		pj_int16_t *	data,
		unsigned	count
	)

Read audio samples from the circular buffer.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	data	Buffer to store the read audio samples.
	count	Number of samples being read.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.

	)

Write audio samples to the circular buffer.

Parameters:

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	data	Audio samples to be written.
	count	Number of samples being written.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.

		pj_int16_t *	data,
		unsigned	count
	)

Copy audio samples from the circular buffer without changing its state.

	circbuf	The circular buffer.
	start_idx	Starting sample index to be copied.
	data	Buffer to store the read audio samples.
	count	Number of samples being read.

pj_status_t pjmedia_circ_buf_pack_buffer

(

pjmedia_circ_buf *

circbuf

)

Pack the buffer so the first sample will be in the beginning of the buffer. This will also make the buffer contiguous.

Parameters:

circbuf

The circular buffer.

Returns:

PJ_SUCCESS when successful, otherwise the appropriate error will be returned.
