本文基于FFmpeg 4.1版本。

1. 数据结构定义

struct AVPacket定义于<libavcodec/avcodec.h>

struct AVPacket packet;

AVPacket中存储的是经过编码的压缩数据。在解码中,AVPacket由解复用器输出到解码器;在编码中,AVPacket由编码器输出到复用器。下图中,解复用器(demuxer)的输出和复用器(muxer)的输入“encoded data packets”的数据类型就是AVPacket:

 _______              ______________
|       |            |              |
| input |  demuxer   | encoded data |   decoder
| file  | ---------> | packets      | -----+
|_______|            |______________|      |
                                           v
                                       _________
                                      |         |
                                      | decoded |
                                      | frames  |
                                      |_________|
 ________             ______________       |
|        |           |              |      |
| output | <-------- | encoded data | <----+
| file   |   muxer   | packets      |   encoder
|________|           |______________|

对于视频而言,一个AVPacket通常只包含一个压缩视频帧。而对于音频而言,一个AVPacket可能包含多个完整的音频压缩帧。AVPacket也可以不包含压缩编码数据,而只包含side data,这种包可以称为空packet。例如,编码结束后只需要更新一些参数时就可以发空packet。

AVPacket对象可以在栈上分配,注意此处指的是AVPacket对象本身。而AVPacket中包含的数据缓冲区是通过av_malloc()在堆上分配的。
TODO: AVPacket对象在栈上分配,原理不清楚,待研究

/**
 * This structure stores compressed data. It is typically exported by demuxers
 * and then passed as input to decoders, or received as output from encoders and
 * then passed to muxers.
 *
 * For video, it should typically contain one compressed frame. For audio it may
 * contain several compressed frames. Encoders are allowed to output empty
 * packets, with no compressed data, containing only side data
 * (e.g. to update some stream parameters at the end of encoding).
 *
 * AVPacket is one of the few structs in FFmpeg, whose size is a part of public
 * ABI. Thus it may be allocated on stack and no new fields can be added to it
 * without libavcodec and libavformat major bump.
 *
 * The semantics of data ownership depends on the buf field.
 * If it is set, the packet data is dynamically allocated and is
 * valid indefinitely until a call to av_packet_unref() reduces the
 * reference count to 0.
 *
 * If the buf field is not set av_packet_ref() would make a copy instead
 * of increasing the reference count.
 *
 * The side data is always allocated with av_malloc(), copied by
 * av_packet_ref() and freed by av_packet_unref().
 *
 * @see av_packet_ref
 * @see av_packet_unref

音视频数据缓冲区

  • uint8_t *data:
  • int size:
    数据缓冲区地址与大小。音视频编码压缩数据存储于此片内存区域。此内存区域由AVBufferRef *buf管理。
  • AVBufferRef *buf:
    数据缓冲区引用,也可叫引用计数缓冲区。对上一字段uint8_t *data指向的内存区域提供引用计数等管理机制。
    AVBufferRef对数据缓冲区提供了管理机制,用户不应直接访问数据缓冲区。参考“FFmpeg数据结构AVBuffer
    如果buf值为NULL,则data指向的数据缓冲区不使用引用计数机制。av_packet_ref(dst, src)将执行数据缓冲区的拷贝,而非仅仅增加缓冲区引用计数。
    如果buf值非NULL,则data指向的数据缓冲区使用引用计数机制。av_packet_ref(dst, src)将不拷贝缓冲区,而仅增加缓冲区引用计数。av_packet_unref()将数据缓冲区引用计数减1,当缓冲区引用计数为0时,缓冲区内存被FFmpeg回收。
    对于struct AVPacket pkt对象,如果pkt.buf值非NULL,则有pkt.data == pkt.buf->data == pkt.buf->buffer.data

额外类型数据

  • AVPacketSideData *side_data
  • int side_data_elems
    由容器(container)提供的额外包数据。TODO: 待研究

packet属性

  • int64_t pts:
    显示时间戳。单位time_base,帧率的倒数。
  • int64_t dts:
    解码时间戳。单位time_base,帧率的倒数。
  • int stream_index:
    当前包(packet)所有流(stream)的索引(index)。
  • int flags:
    packet标志位。比如是否关键帧等。
  • int64_t duration:
    当前包解码后的帧播放持续的时长。单位timebase。值等于下一帧pts减当前帧pts。
  • int64_t pos:
    当前包在流中的位置,单位字节。

2. 关键函数实现

这里列出的几个关键函数,主要是为了帮助理解struct AVPacket数据结构

2.1 av_packet_ref()

int av_packet_ref(AVPacket *dst, const AVPacket *src)
{
    int ret;

    ret = av_packet_copy_props(dst, src);
    if (ret < 0)
        return ret;

    if (!src->buf) {
        ret = packet_alloc(&dst->buf, src->size);
        if (ret < 0)
            goto fail;
        if (src->size)
            memcpy(dst->buf->data, src->data, src->size);

        dst->data = dst->buf->data;
    } else {
        dst->buf = av_buffer_ref(src->buf);
        if (!dst->buf) {
            ret = AVERROR(ENOMEM);
            goto fail;
        }
        dst->data = src->data;
    }

    dst->size = src->size;

    return 0;
fail:
    av_packet_free_side_data(dst);
    return ret;
}

av_packet_ref()作了处理如下:

a) 如果src->buf为NULL,则将src缓冲区拷贝到新创建的dst缓冲区,注意src缓冲区不支持引用计数,但新建的dst缓冲区是支持引用计数的,因为dst->buf不为NULL。

b) 如果src->buf不为空,则dst与src共用缓冲区,调用av_buffer_ref()增加缓冲区引用计数即可。av_buffer_ref()分析参考“FFmpeg数据结构AVBuffer

2.2 av_packet_unref()

void av_packet_unref(AVPacket *pkt)
{
    av_packet_free_side_data(pkt);
    av_buffer_unref(&pkt->buf);
    av_init_packet(pkt);
    pkt->data = NULL;
    pkt->size = 0;
}

av_packet_unref()注销AVPacket *pkt对象,并调用av_buffer_unref(&pkt->buf);将缓冲区引用计数减1。
av_buffer_unref()中将缓冲区引用计数减1后,若缓冲区引用计数变成0,则回收缓冲区内存。av_buffer_unref()分析参考“FFmpeg数据结构AVBuffer
