Detailed Description

A staging buffer is a buffer that resides on the GPU and be written to/from both CPU & GPU However the access in both cases is limited.

GPUs can only copy (i.e. memcpy) to another real buffer (can't be used directly as i.e. texture or vertex buffer) and CPUs can only map it. In other words, a staging buffer is an intermediate buffer to transfer data between CPU & GPU

◆ _asyncDownload()

virtual size_t Ogre::GLES2StagingBuffer::_asyncDownload	(	BufferPacked *	source,
		size_t	srcOffset,
		size_t	srcLength
	)

virtual

Copies the GPU data in BufferPacked to the StagingBuffer so that it can be later read by the CPU using an AsyncTicket.

See also: AsyncTicket.

Remarks: For internal use. May throw if it can't handle the request (i.e. requested size is too big, or too many _asyncDownload operations are pending until calling _mapForRead)

See also: canDownload mUploadOnly must be true.

Parameters

source	The buffer to copy from.
srcOffset	The offset, in bytes, of the buffer to copy from.
srcLength	The size in bytes, of the data to transfer to this staging buffer.

Returns: The offset in bytes that will be used by

See also: _mapForRead

Implements Ogre::StagingBuffer.

◆ _cancelDownload()

virtual void Ogre::StagingBuffer::_cancelDownload	(	size_t	offset,
		size_t	sizeBytes
	)

virtualinherited

Releases memory assigned to a download that hasn't been mapped yet, to make space for another _asyncDownload call.

Useful when you suddenly don't intend to call _mapForRead.

Reimplemented in Ogre::MetalStagingBuffer.

◆ _mapForRead()

const void* Ogre::StagingBuffer::_mapForRead	(	size_t	offset,
		size_t	sizeBytes
	)

inherited

Maps the buffer for read acces for the CPU.

Remarks: For internal use. mUploadOnly must be true. Attempting to const cast the returned pointer and write to it is undefined behavior. Call unmap( 0, 0 ) to unmap. Once mapped and unmapped, the same region shouldn't be remapped.

Parameters

offset	The returned value from _asyncDownload.
sizeBytes	The size in bytes of the data to map. Should be parameter 'srcLength' passed to _asyncDownload.

Returns: The pointer with the data read from the GPU. Read only.

void Ogre::StagingBuffer::addReferenceCount ( )

inherited

Adds a reference count to the StagingBuffer. @See removeReferenceCount.

◆ canDownload()

virtual bool Ogre::StagingBuffer::canDownload ( size_t length ) const

Checks if this staging buffer has enough free space to use _asyncDownload.

◆ removeReferenceCount()

void Ogre::StagingBuffer::removeReferenceCount ( )

inherited

Decreases the reference count by one.

StagingBuffers are manually reference counted. The first reason is performance. The second main reason is that the pointer doesn't get immediately deleted when the reference hits 0.

: Instead, a reference count of 0 means the Vao manager will monitor its lifetime. If it has been 0 for too long (past certain time threshold) the Vao manager will destroy this staging buffer.

: Meanwhile, the Staging Buffer will live in a pool until it's requested again or the time threshold is met. This prevents unwanted hiccups due to buffers getting recreated and destroyed all the time. Keep a non-zero ref. count to ensure the StagingBuffer won't be deleted due to timeouts (i.e. you know this buffer will get used at long regular intervals, like once every 15 minutes)

: Having a non-zero reference count doesn't mean the pointer will live forever though, as the memory is owned by the VaoManager: if the VaoManager is shutdown, this StagingBuffer will be freed.

◆ unmap() [1/3]

void Ogre::StagingBuffer::unmap ( const Destination & destination )

inlineinherited

Unmaps the mapped region and copies the data to the given region. @See Destination.

void Ogre::StagingBuffer::unmap ( const DestinationVec & destinations )

inlineinherited

Unmaps the mapped region and copies the data to multiple buffers.

Useful when loading many meshes or textures at once (i.e. from multiple threads)

◆ uploadWillStall()

virtual StagingStallType Ogre::GLES2StagingBuffer::uploadWillStall ( size_t sizeBytes )

virtual

Returns true if our next call to @map() with the same parameters will stall.

@See StagingStallType

Remarks: Not all RenderSystems can accurately give this information and will always return STALL_PARTIAL (i.e. GLES2) The chances of getting a STALL_FULL get higher as sizeBytes gets closer to this->getMaxSize() mUploadOnly must be false. It is the counter side of
