		NvBufSurfaceAllocateParams *	paramsext
	)

Allocate batch of buffers.

(Using extended buffer allocation parameters)

Allocates memory for batchSize buffers and returns in *surf a pointer to allocated NvBufSurface. params structure should have allocation parameters of single buffer. If size field in params is set, buffer of that size will be allocated and all other parameters (w, h, color format etc.) will be ignored.

Use NvBufSurfaceDestroy to free all the resources.

Parameters

Copies the content of source batched buffer(s) to destination batched buffer(s).

You can use this function to copy source buffer(s) of one memory type to destination buffer(s) of another memory type, e.g. CUDA host to CUDA device, malloc'ed memory to CUDA device, etc.

The source and destination NvBufSurface objects must have same buffer and batch size.

Parameters

[in]	srcSurf	A pointer to the source NvBufSurface structure.

		uint32_t	batchSize,
		NvBufSurfaceCreateParams *	params
	)

Allocates a batch of buffers.

Allocates memory for batchSize buffers and returns a pointer to an allocated NvBufSurface. The params structure must have the allocation parameters of a single buffer. If params.size is set, a buffer of that size is allocated, and all other parameters (width, height, color format, etc.) are ignored.

Call NvBufSurfaceDestroy() to free resources allocated by this function.

Parameters

int NvBufSurfaceImport	(	NvBufSurface **	out_nvbuf_surf,
		const NvBufSurfaceMapParams *	in_params
	)

Calling process must need to call NvBufferDestroy() to remove reference count for hardware buffer handle of the imported DMA buffer.

Parameters

[out]	out_nvbuf_surf	Pointer to hardware buffer.
[in]	in_params	Parameters to create hardware buffer.

Returns: 0 for success, -1 for failure.

◆ NvBufSurfaceMap()

int NvBufSurfaceMap	(	NvBufSurface *	surf,
		int	index,
		int	plane,
		NvBufSurfaceMemMapFlags	type
	)

Maps hardware batched buffers to the HOST or CPU address space.

Valid for NVBUF_MEM_CUDA_UNIFIED type memory for dGPU and NVBUF_MEM_SURFACE_ARRAY and NVBUF_MEM_HANDLE type memory for Jetson.

This function fills an array of pointers at surf->surfaceList->mappedAddr->addr. surf is a pointer to an NvBufSurface. surfaceList is a pointer to an NvBufSurfaceParams. mappedAddr is a pointer to an NvBufSurfaceMappedAddr. addr is declared as an array of pointers to void, and holds pointers to the buffers.

The client must call NvBufSurfaceSyncForCpu() with the virtual address populated by this function before accessing mapped memory in the CPU.

After memory mapping is complete, mapped memory modification must be coordinated between the CPU and the hardware device as follows:

CPU: If the CPU modifies mapped memory, the client must call NvBufSurfaceSyncForDevice() before any hardware device accesses the memory.
Hardware device: If a hardware device modifies mapped memory, the client must call NvBufSurfaceSyncForCpu() before the CPU accesses the memory.

Use NvBufSurfaceUnMap() to unmap buffer(s) and release any resource.

Parameters

[in,out]	surf	A pointer to an NvBufSurface structure. The function stores pointers to the buffers in a descendant of this structure; see the notes above.
[in]	index	Index of a buffer in the batch. -1 refers to all buffers in the batch.
[in]	plane	Index of a plane in buffer. -1 refers to all planes in the buffer.
[in]	type	A flag for mapping type.

Returns: 0 if successful, or -1 otherwise.

		int	index
	)
