Small API added to allow sample buffers to be used after the lifetime of the callback, and manually returned to librtlsdr. Allows multithreaded apps to track USB buffer buildup without requiring memcpy() be called in the callback.
This update includes a fix to handle unsubmitted buffers on cancel. --- include/rtl-sdr.h | 50 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/librtlsdr.c | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 2 files changed, 93 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
