[PATCH] sink-input, source-output: add a couple of assertions

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Coverity complained about data->sink being possibly NULL when it's
dereferenced later. It was difficult for me to figure out whether that
was a false positive or not. Hopefully the comments make it a bit
easier to reason about the code in the future.

It might be a good idea to set data->req_formats early, so that it's
always set when setting the sink for a stream. Currently, if the
application doesn't use the new format negotiation API, req_formats is
set according to the sample spec at a very late stage. That means that
sometimes data->sink gets set after data->req_formats, and sometimes
data->req_formats gets set after data->sink, which makes it difficult to
follow the code.
