[Mesa-dev] [PATCH v2] glsl: Add blob.c---a simple interface for serializing data

Carl Worth cworth at cworth.org
Fri Dec 12 14:43:32 PST 2014


This new interface allows for writing a series of objects to a chunk
of memory (a "blob").. The allocated memory is maintained within the
blob itself, (and re-allocated by doubling when necessary).

There are also functions for reading objects from a blob as well. If
code attempts to read beyond the available memory, the read functions
return 0 values (or its moral equivalent) without reading past the
allocated memory. Once the caller is done with the reads, it can check
blob->overrun to ensure whether any invalid values were previously
returned due to attempts to read too far.

Jason,

This second revision of my patch is in response to your review.

I went to move the align_blob_reader function down by all the other
blob_reader functions, but I decided not to. You had a concern about the
alignment code, and it it's wrong then both align_blob() and
align_blob_reader() will need to be fixed. So it seems useful to me to keep
them close to each other.

-Carl
