Go to the documentation of this file.

// Specialized ring buffer. This is basically an array that wraps read/write
// pointers around the memory region. It should be more efficient than the old
// RBuffer which required memmove() calls to relocate read/write positions.
//
// The main purpose of RBuffer is simplify memory management when reading from
// uv_stream_t instances:
//
// - The event loop writes data to a RBuffer, advancing the write pointer
// - The main loop reads data, advancing the read pointer
// - If the buffer becomes full(size == capacity) the rstream is temporarily
//   stopped(automatic backpressure handling)
//

// Macros that simplify working with the read/write pointers directly by hiding
// ring buffer wrap logic. Some examples:
//
// - Pass the write pointer to a function(write_data) that incrementally
//   produces data, returning the number of bytes actually written to the
//   ring buffer:
//
//       RBUFFER_UNTIL_FULL(rbuf, ptr, cnt)
//         rbuffer_produced(rbuf, write_data(state, ptr, cnt));
//
// - Pass the read pointer to a function(read_data) that incrementally
//   consumes data, returning the number of bytes actually read from the
//   ring buffer:
//
//       RBUFFER_UNTIL_EMPTY(rbuf, ptr, cnt)
//         rbuffer_consumed(rbuf, read_data(state, ptr, cnt));
//
// Note that the rbuffer_{produced,consumed} calls are necessary or these macros
// create infinite loops
