15 * struct abuf - buffer that can be allocated and freed
17 * This is useful for a block of data which may be allocated with malloc(), or
18 * not, so that it needs to be freed correctly when finished with.
20 * For now it has a very simple purpose.
22 * Using memset() to zero all fields is guaranteed to be equivalent to
25 * @data: Pointer to data
26 * @size: Size of data in bytes
27 * @alloced: true if allocated with malloc(), so must be freed after use
35 static inline void *abuf_data(const struct abuf *abuf)
40 static inline size_t abuf_size(const struct abuf *abuf)
46 * abuf_set() - set the (unallocated) data in a buffer
48 * This simply makes the abuf point to the supplied data, which must be live
49 * for the lifetime of the abuf. It is not alloced.
51 * Any existing data in the abuf is freed and the alloced member is set to
54 * @abuf: abuf to adjust
55 * @data: New contents of abuf
56 * @size: New size of abuf
58 void abuf_set(struct abuf *abuf, void *data, size_t size);
61 * abuf_map_sysmem() - calls map_sysmem() to set up an abuf
63 * This is equivalent to abuf_set(abuf, map_sysmem(addr, size), size)
65 * Any existing data in the abuf is freed and the alloced member is set to
68 * @abuf: abuf to adjust
69 * @addr: Address to set the abuf to
70 * @size: New size of abuf
72 void abuf_map_sysmem(struct abuf *abuf, ulong addr, size_t size);
75 * abuf_realloc() - Change the size of a buffer
77 * This uses realloc() to change the size of the buffer, with the same semantics
78 * as that function. If the abuf is not currently alloced, then it will alloc
79 * it if the size needs to increase (i.e. set the alloced member to true)
81 * @abuf: abuf to adjust
82 * @new_size: new size in bytes.
83 * if 0, the abuf is freed
84 * if greater than the current size, the abuf is extended and the new
85 * space is not inited. The alloced member is set to true
86 * if less than the current size, the abuf is contracted and the data at
87 * the end is lost. If @new_size is 0, this sets the alloced member to
89 * @return true if OK, false if out of memory
91 bool abuf_realloc(struct abuf *abuf, size_t new_size);
94 * abuf_uninit_move() - Return the allocated contents and uninit the abuf
96 * This returns the abuf data to the caller, allocating it if necessary, so that
97 * the caller receives data that it can be sure will hang around. The caller is
98 * responsible for freeing the data.
100 * If the abuf has allocated data, it is returned. If the abuf has data but it
101 * is not allocated, then it is first allocated, then returned.
103 * If the abuf size is 0, this returns NULL
105 * The abuf is uninited as part of this, except if the allocation fails, in
106 * which NULL is returned and the abuf remains untouched.
108 * The abuf must be inited before this can be called.
110 * @abuf: abuf to uninit
111 * @sizep: if non-NULL, returns the size of the returned data
112 * @return data contents, allocated with malloc(), or NULL if the data could not
113 * be allocated, or the data size is 0
115 void *abuf_uninit_move(struct abuf *abuf, size_t *sizep);
118 * abuf_init_move() - Make abuf take over the management of an allocated region
120 * After this, @data must not be used. All access must be via the abuf.
122 * @abuf: abuf to init
123 * @data: Existing allocated buffer to place in the abuf
124 * @size: Size of allocated buffer
126 void abuf_init_move(struct abuf *abuf, void *data, size_t size);
129 * abuf_init_set() - Set up a new abuf
131 * Inits a new abuf and sets up its (unallocated) data
133 * @abuf: abuf to set up
134 * @data: New contents of abuf
135 * @size: New size of abuf
137 void abuf_init_set(struct abuf *abuf, void *data, size_t size);
140 * abuf_uninit() - Free any memory used by an abuf
142 * The buffer must be inited before this can be called.
144 * @abuf: abuf to uninit
146 void abuf_uninit(struct abuf *abuf);
149 * abuf_init() - Set up a new abuf
151 * This initially has no data and alloced is set to false. This is equivalent to
152 * setting all fields to 0, e.g. with memset(), so callers can do that instead
155 * @abuf: abuf to set up
157 void abuf_init(struct abuf *abuf);
