What's the purpose of "rewind" on corking and uncorking?

Many thanks for the information!

But it seems on corking, no data will be "taken away" from the sink buffer. Here is the code:

void pa_sink_input_set_state_within_thread(pa_sink_input *i, pa_sink_input_state_t state) {
	...
    i->thread_info.state = state;   ---> so the sink input's thread_info.state changed to PA_SINK_INPUT_CORKED. So pa_sink_input_request_rewind() will do nothing. 

    if (corking) {

        pa_log_debug("Requesting rewind due to corking");

        /* This will tell the implementing sink input driver to rewind
         * so that the unplayed already mixed data is not lost */
        pa_sink_input_request_rewind(i, 0, TRUE, TRUE, FALSE);

    }

void pa_sink_input_request_rewind(
        pa_sink_input *i,
        size_t nbytes  /* in our sample spec */,
        pa_bool_t rewrite,
        pa_bool_t flush,
        pa_bool_t dont_rewind_render) {
...
    /* We don't take rewind requests while we are corked */
    if (i->thread_info.state == PA_SINK_INPUT_CORKED)
        return; 

...

If I misunderstand something, please correct me.

Thanks again!
Amanda
