NAME
snd_dma_alloc_pages_fallback - allocate the buffer area according to the given type with fallback SYNOPSIS
int snd_dma_alloc_pages_fallback(int type, struct device * device, size_t size, struct snd_dma_buffer * dmab); ARGUMENTS
type the DMA buffer type device the device pointer size the buffer size to allocate dmab buffer allocation record to store the allocated data DESCRIPTION
Calls the memory-allocator function for the corresponding buffer type. When no space is left, this function reduces the size and tries to allocate again. The size actually allocated is stored in res_size argument. Returns zero if the buffer with the given size is allocated successfuly, other a negative value at error. COPYRIGHT

NAME
TIFFReadBufferSetup, TIFFWriteBufferSetup - I/O buffering control routines SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h> int TIFFReadBufferSetup(TIFF*, tdata_t buffer, tsize_t size); int TIFFWriteBufferSetup(TIFF*, tdata_t buffer, tsize_t size); DESCRIPTION
The following routines are provided for client-control of the I/O buffers used by the library. Applications need never use these routines; they are provided only for ``intelligent clients'' that wish to optimize memory usage and/or eliminate potential copy operations that can occur when working with images that have data stored without compression. TIFFReadBufferSetup sets up the data buffer used to read raw (encoded) data from a file. If the specified pointer is NULL (zero), then a buffer of the appropriate size is allocated. Otherwise the caller must guarantee that the buffer is large enough to hold any individual strip of raw data. TIFFReadBufferSetup returns a non-zero value if the setup was successful and zero otherwise. TIFFWriteBufferSetup sets up the data buffer used to write raw (encoded) data to a file. If the specified size is -1 then the buffer size is selected to hold a complete tile or strip, or at least 8 kilobytes, whichever is greater. If the specified buffer is NULL (zero), then a buffer of the appropriate size is dynamically allocated. TIFFWriteBufferSetup returns a non-zero value if the setup was successful and zero otherwise. DIAGNOSTICS
%s: No space for data buffer at scanline %ld. TIFFReadBufferSetup was unable to dynamically allocate space for a data buffer. %s: No space for output buffer. TIFFWriteBufferSetup was unable to dynamically allocate space for a data buffer. SEE ALSO
