27 // A thread-safe class that does the bookkeeping and lifetime management for a

29 // (e.g. a VideoCaptureDevice) and a set of out-of-process consumers. The pool
30 // is intended to be orchestrated by a VideoCaptureController, but is designed
31 // to outlive the controller if necessary.
33 // Producers get a buffer by calling ReserveForProducer(), and may pass on their
34 // ownership to the consumer by calling HoldForConsumers(), or drop the buffer

36 // Consumers signal that they are done with the buffer by calling
37 // RelinquishConsumerHold().

41 // called |buffer_id|. -1 (kInvalidId) is never a valid ID, and is returned by
42 // some methods to indicate failure. The active set of buffer ids may change
43 // over the lifetime of the buffer pool, as existing buffers are freed and
