Detailed Description

automatically resized byte buffer

This represents a buffer of bytes. Its size is automatically adjusted to hold any data prepended or appended by the user. Its implementation is optimized to ensure that the number of buffer resizes is minimized, by creating new Buffers of the maximum size ever used. The correct maximum size is learned at runtime during use by recording the maximum size of each packet.

Internal:: The implementation of the Buffer class uses a COW (Copy On Write) technique to ensure that the underlying data buffer which holds the data bytes is shared among a lot of Buffer instances despite data being added or removed from them.

When multiple Buffer instances hold a reference to the same underlying BufferData object, they must be able to detect when the operation they want to perform should trigger a copy of the BufferData. If the BufferData::m_count field is one, it means that there exist only one instance of Buffer which references the BufferData instance so, it is safe to modify it. It is also safe to modify the content of a BufferData if the modification falls outside of the "dirty area" defined by the BufferData. In every other case, the BufferData must be copied before being modified.

To understand the way the Buffer::Add and Buffer::Remove methods work, you first need to understand the "virtual offsets" used to keep track of the content of buffers. Each Buffer instance contains real data bytes in its BufferData instance but it also contains "virtual zero data" which typically is used to represent application-level payload. No memory is allocated to store the zero bytes of application-level payload unless the user fragments a Buffer: this application-level payload is kept track of with a pair of integers which describe where in the buffer content the "virtual zero area" starts and ends.

* ***: unused bytes
* xxx: bytes "added" at the front of the zero area
* ...: bytes "added" at the back of the zero area
* 000: virtual zero bytes
*
* Real byte buffer:      |********xxxxxxxxxxxx.........*****|
*                        |--------^ m_start
*                        |-------------------^ m_zeroAreaStart
*                        |-----------------------------^ m_end - (m_zeroAreaEnd - m_zeroAreaStart)
* virtual byte buffer:           |xxxxxxxxxxxx0000000000000.........|
*                        |--------^ m_start
*                        |--------------------^ m_zeroAreaStart
*                        |---------------------------------^ m_zeroAreaEnd
*                        |------------------------------------------^ m_end
*

A simple state invariant is that m_start <= m_zeroStart <= m_zeroEnd <= m_end

bool ns3::Buffer::AddAtEnd ( uint32_t end )

Parameters

end	size to reserve

Returns: true if the buffer needed resizing, false otherwise.

Add bytes at the end of the Buffer. The content of these bytes is undefined but debugging builds initialize them to 0x33. Any call to this method invalidates any Iterator pointing to this Buffer.

This is an optimization which kicks in when we attempt to aggregate two buffers which contain adjacent zero areas.
