NAME
vrb_put - put data into a VRB LIBRARY
-lvrb SYNOPSIS
#include <vrb.h> size_t vrb_put(vrb_p vrb, char *source, size_t size); DESCRIPTION
vrb_put puts caller provided data into a virtual ring buffer. If less space is available in the virtual ring buffer, then only as much will be copied as can be fit in. ARGUMENTS
vrb_p vrb specifies which virtual ring buffer. char *source specifies the location where to copy the data from. size_t size specifies the length of data provided by the caller. RETURN VALUE
size_t The actual length of data copied is returned, which can be any value from 0 to the specified size. ERRORS
If an error is returned, then errno will have the following value: EINVAL An invalid virtual ring buffer pointer was specified. SEE ALSO

NAME
vrb_resize - create a new virtual ring buffer LIBRARY
-lvrb SYNOPSIS
#include <vrb.h> vrb_p vrb_resize(size_t size, const char *name); DESCRIPTION
vrb_resize changes the size of a virtual ring buffer if the data in the source buffer will fit in the requested space. ARGUMENTS
vrb_p vrb specifies the ring buffer which will be resized. size_t size specifies the requested minimum buffer size to be allocated. The given value will be rounded up to the nearest or equal whole multiple of the system page size. The virtual ring buffer is implemented by mapping two adjacent blocks of memory to the same memory object. Thus, twice as much virtual address space will be used and the specified size must be less than half of the available virtual address space for this process. const char *name specifies an optional name of a file to be used as backing store via mmap(2) in a mounted filesystem in which the process has write permis- sion. If the named file cannot be opened for write, an error will occur. If NULL is given, swap space will be used as backing store via shmat(2). RETURN VALUE
int On success, 0 is returned. Otherwise, -1 is returned. ERRORS
If an error is returned, then errno will have one of the following values: ENOSPC The data in the current virtual ring buffer will not fit into the requested space. EINVAL A buffer size was requested which is too large for address space allocation arithmetic. ENOMEM Out of memory allocating the virtual ring buffer structure. - An errno value set by a failing system call. SEE ALSO
