get packet number in libpcap callback - c++

I'm using libpcap to process the WS output.
My question is: can I have access in the packet number in the pcap_loop callback? Or I will have to use a static variable?
EDIT:
As requested:
long Foo:Main()
{
handle = pcap_open_dead( DLT_EN10MB, MAX_PACKET_SIZE );
if( !handle )
{
}
dumper = pcap_dump_open( handle, fileOut.ToString() );
if( !dumper )
{
}
handle = pcap_open_offline( fileNameStr.ToString(), errbuf );
if( !handle )
{
}
if( pcap_compile( handle, &fp, FltString.ToString(), 0, net ) == PCAP_ERROR )
{
}
// Set filter for JREAP only
if( pcap_setfilter( handle, &fp ) == PCAP_ERROR )
{
}
unchar *uncharThis = reinterpret_cast<unchar*>( this );
// The pcap_loop is implemented like:
// for( int i = 0; i < num_of_packets; i++ )
// ProcessPackets();
// where i is the current packet number to process
int ret_val = pcap_loop( handle, 0, ProcessPackets, uncharThis );
if( ret_val == PCAP_ERROR )
{
}
}
bool Foo::ProcessPackets(unchar *userData, const struct pcap_pkthdr *pkthdr, const unchar *packet)
{
// This function will be called for every packet in the pcap file
// that satisfy the filter condition.
// Inside this function do I have access to the packet number.
// Do I have an access to the variable `i` from the comment above
// Or I will have to introduce a static variable here?
}

libpcap does not keep track of the ordinal numbers of packets, so you'll have to maintain a packet count in your code.

Decoding loop logic from matroska (mkv, webm) to audio (C++ via libvorbis)

(I'm not fluent in english i'll try to do my best)
I try to code (C++) a simple mkv player. I'm very new in this subject, so I discover all I need little by little. For the beginning, I use VP8 codec for video and Vorbis for audio.
The video side seem ok for now, but I'm in trouble with audio.
I can't figure out the loop logic to decode the audio frames I get from mkvparser with the libvorbis.
I looked up to this sample and this brief explanation but can't manage to make it work in my case. And I didn't find other simple examples.
Here is a chunk of my code:
const mkvparser::Block* const pBlock = m_pMkvContext->pBlockEntry->GetBlock();
const mkvparser::Track* const pTrack = m_pMkvContext->pTracks->GetTrackByNumber( (unsigned long)pBlock->GetTrackNumber() );
if ( pTrack != NULL )
{
const long long trackType = pTrack->GetType();
const int frameCount = pBlock->GetFrameCount();
if ( frameCount > 0 )
{
const mkvparser::Block::Frame& oFrame = pBlock->GetFrame( 0 );
unsigned char* pData = (unsigned char*)malloc( (size_t)oFrame.len );
oFrame.Read( &m_pMkvContext->oReader, pData );
if ( trackType == mkvparser::Track::kVideo )
{
// i'm ok here
}
else if ( trackType == mkvparser::Track::kAudio )
{
// what to do here with my audio frame data ?
}
free( pData );
}
}
And maybe the way I get frames is good for video and not for audio...
Do you guys know some good resources to share about it? Or some advices?
Thanks for help !
[EDIT] : I forgot to add one of my try:
bool MoviePlayer::DecodeAudioData( unsigned char* pData, uint32 iSize )
{
int ret;
char* pBuffer = NULL;
pBuffer = ogg_sync_buffer( &m_pOVContext->oOggSyncState, iSize );
memcpy( pBuffer, pData, iSize );
ogg_sync_wrote( &m_pOVContext->oOggSyncState, iSize );
ret = ogg_sync_pageout( &m_pOVContext->oOggSyncState, &m_pOVContext->oOggPage );
ret = ogg_stream_init( &m_pOVContext->oOggStreamState, ogg_page_serialno(&m_pOVContext->oOggPage) );
ret = ogg_stream_pagein( &m_pOVContext->oOggStreamState, &m_pOVContext->oOggPage );
int iPacketsCount = ogg_page_packets( &m_pOVContext->oOggPage );
for ( int i = 0; i < iPacketsCount; ++i )
{
ret = ogg_stream_packetout(&m_pOVContext->oOggStreamState, &m_pOVContext->oOggPacket);
// do something with the packet...
}
return true;
}
It crashes at ogg_sync_pageout, as my ogg_page was not correctly initialized.
But, not coming from a proper .ogg file as in the examples i found, i don't know how to correctly initialize the vorbis structures.
https://matroska.org/technical/specs/codecid/index.html
in A_VORBIS section
The private data contains the first three Vorbis packet in order....
and the codec private is here

How can I make this code play the wave file for longer?

I couldn't figure out how to create my own sound player, so I have opted to use one from ChiliTomatoNoodle's framework.
The issue I'm having, however, is I have a 180s wave file, that's only playing the first second or so. What do I have to do to make it play longer?

Thanks for your help in advance!
Assuming you have a .wav file, and you are loading the sound file somewhere along the lines of:
yourSound = audio.CreateSound("fileName.WAV"); //Capslock on WAV
yourSound.Play();
With this comes the declaration of the Sound in the header:
Sound yourSound;
Now because you have probably done this already and this is not working it likely has to do with your file as playing sounds 160 seconds+ should not be a problem.
Are you using a .WAV file for the sound? If so did you happen to convert that (as it is probably a background sound?). If you did try converting it with this converter:
Converter MP3 -> WAV
Please let me know if this works!
Your buffer is probably only large enough to play the first second or so. What you need to do is setup "notifications". See the documentation.
Notifications are a way to ask the audio hardware to let you know when they have reached a specific point in the buffer.
The idea is to setup a notification in the middle of the buffer and at the end of the buffer. When you receive the notification from the notification in the middle, you fill the first half of the buffer with more data. When you receive the notification from the end, you fill the second half of the buffer with more data. This way, you can stream an infinite amount of data with a single buffer.

Single Producer / Consumer Ring Buffer in Shared Memory

Recently I've been playing about with using shared memory for IPC. One thing I've been trying to implement is a simple ring buffer with 1 process producing and 1 process consuming. Each process has its own sequence number to track its position. These sequence numbers are updated using atomic ops to ensure the correct values are visible to the other process. The producer will block once the ring buffer is full. The code is lock free in that no semaphores or mutexes are used.
Performance wise I'm getting roughly 20 million messages per second on my rather modest VM - Pretty happy with that :)
What I'm curious about how 'correct' my code is. Can anyone spot any inherent issues / race conditions? Here's my code. Thanks in advance for any comments.

Seems correct to me at a first glance. I realize that you are happy with the performance but a fun experiment might be to use something more light weight than a __sync_fetch_and_add. AFAIK it is a full memory barrier, which is expensive. Since there is a single producer and a single consumer, a release and a corresponding acquire operation should give you better performance. Facebook's Folly library has a single producer single consumer queue that uses the new C++11 atomics here: https://github.com/facebook/folly/blob/master/folly/ProducerConsumerQueue.h

Listening socket connecting without accept being called on Linux

I am running code on Ubuntu Linux it is supposed to use a Set and select to check when a listening socket has activity (ie someone trying to connect) and let them connect, the trouble is select ALLWAYS returns 0, and when I try to connect it just connects straight away.
but on the server Accept is never called as select always returns 0, so I am wondering what could cause this?
namespace SocketLib
{
const int MAX = FD_SETSIZE;
class SocketSet
{
public:
SocketSet();
void AddSocket( const Socket& p_sock );
void RemoveSocket( const Socket& p_sock );
inline int Poll( long p_time = 0 )
{
// this is the time value structure. It will determine how long
// the select function will wait.
struct timeval t = { 0, p_time * 1000 };
// copy the set over into the activity set.
m_activityset = m_set;
// now run select() on the sockets.
#ifdef WIN32
return select( 0, &m_activityset, 0, 0, &t );
#else
if( m_socketdescs.size() == 0 ) return 0;
return select( *(m_socketdescs.rbegin()), &m_activityset, 0, 0, &t );
#endif
}
inline bool HasActivity( const Socket& p_sock )
{
return FD_ISSET( p_sock.GetSock(), &m_activityset ) != 0;
}
protected:
// a set representing the socket descriptors.
fd_set m_set;
// this set will represent all the sockets that have activity on them.
fd_set m_activityset;
// this is only used for linux, since select() requires the largest
// descriptor +1 passed into it. BLAH!
#ifndef WIN32
std::set<sock> m_socketdescs;
#endif
};
is the code running the poll in case it helps
Additional code is:
#include <algorithm>
#include "SocketSet.h"
namespace SocketLib
{
SocketSet::SocketSet()
{
FD_ZERO( &m_set );
FD_ZERO( &m_activityset );
}
void SocketSet::AddSocket( const Socket& p_sock )
{
// add the socket desc to the set
FD_SET( p_sock.GetSock(), &m_set );
// if linux, then record the descriptor into the vector,
// and check if it's the largest descriptor.
#ifndef WIN32
m_socketdescs.insert( p_sock.GetSock() );
#endif
}
void SocketSet::RemoveSocket( const Socket& p_sock )
{
FD_CLR( p_sock.GetSock(), &m_set );
#ifndef WIN32
// remove the descriptor from the vector
m_socketdescs.erase( p_sock.GetSock() );
#endif
}
} // end namespace SocketSet
also it is being used here
{
// define a data socket that will receive connections from the listening
// sockets
DataSocket datasock;
// detect if any sockets have action on them
int i=m_set.Poll();
if( i > 0 )
{
// loop through every listening socket
for( size_t s = 0; s < m_sockets.size(); s++ )
{
// check to see if the current socket has a connection waiting
if( m_set.HasActivity( m_sockets[s] ) )
{
try
{
// accept the connection
datasock = m_sockets[s].Accept();
// run the action function on the new data socket
m_manager->NewConnection( datasock );
}
as you can see, it wont do a .Accept until AFTER it has got activity from the select, but it never gets that far
Bind and listen call is here
template
void ListeningManager::AddPort( port p_port )
{
if( m_sockets.size() == MAX )
{
Exception e( ESocketLimitReached );
throw( e );
}
// create a new socket
ListeningSocket lsock;
// listen on the requested port
lsock.Listen( p_port );
// make the socket non-blocking, so that it won't block if a
// connection exploit is used when accepting (see Chapter 4)
lsock.SetBlocking( false );
// add the socket to the socket vector
m_sockets.push_back( lsock );
// add the socket descriptor to the set
m_set.AddSocket( lsock );
}
select() requires the largest fd+1. You give it the largest fd, unmodified. If you see this error on Linux and not Windows, this is the most likely cause.

How to use AudioQueue to play a sound for Mac OSX in C++

I am trying to play a sound on OSX, from a buffer (eg: Equivalent of Windows "PlaySound" function).
I have put together some C++ code to play audio with AudioQueue (as it is my understanding that this is the easiest way to play audio on OSX).
However, no sound is ever generated, and the audio callback function is never called.
Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong, or does anyone have a simple C/C++ example of how to play a sound on OSX?

Note that I had to explicitly set mAudioDataByteSize to the size I allocated.
In the docs they mention that it is initially set to zero, and that's what I found.
The docs don't say why but I suspect it's to allow for variable size buffers or something?

Based somewhat on the answer by bw1024, I created this complete ogg vorbis player with libvorbisfile.
It expands on the previous answer, demonstrates how to use a function to fill in the audio buffers (as in, doesn't generate the sound by itself) and adds end-of-playback detection with an event listener callback.
The code itself is heavily commented, which hopefully explains everything that needs to be explained.
I tried to keep it as close to "production quality" of both Audio Queues and libvorbisfile, so it contains "real" error conditions and checks for exceptional circumstances; such as variable sample rate in the vorbis file, which it can't handle.
I hope none of the noise distracts from its value as a sample.

// This is a complete example of an Ogg Vorbis player based on the vorbisfile
// library and the audio queue API in OS X.
// It can be either taken as an example of how to use libvorbisfile, or
// audio queue programming.
// There are many "magic number" constants in the code, and understanding
// them requires looking up the relevant documentation. Some, such as
// the number of buffers in the audio queue and the size of each buffer
// are the result of experimentation. A "real application" may benefit
// from allowing the user to tweak these, in order to resolve audio stutters.
// Error handling is done very simply in order to focus on the example code
// while still resembling "production code." Here, we use the
// if ( status = foo() ) { ... }
// syntax for error checking. The assignment in if()s is not an error.
// If your compiler is complaining, you can use its equivalent of the
// GCC switch -Wno-parentheses to silence it.
// Assuming you'll want to use libvorbisfile from mac ports, you can
// compile it like this.
// gcc -c -I/opt/local/include \
