Function Documentation

int av_file_map	(	const char *	filename,
		uint8_t **	bufptr,
		size_t *	size,
		int	log_offset,
		void *	log_ctx
	)

Read the file with name filename, and put its content in a newly allocated buffer or map it with mmap() when available.

In case of success set *bufptr to the read or mmapped buffer, and *size to the size in bytes of the buffer in *bufptr. The returned buffer must be released with av_file_unmap().

Parameters:

	log_offset	loglevel offset used for logging
	log_ctx	context used for logging

Returns:

a non negative number in case of success, a negative value corresponding to an AVERROR error code in case of failure

void av_file_unmap	(	uint8_t *	bufptr,
		size_t	size
	)

Unmap or free the buffer bufptr created by av_file_map().

Parameters:

size

size in bytes of bufptr, must be the same as returned by av_file_map()
