buffer_tosa - initialize buffer for writing to stralloc
Contents
Description
buffer_tosa makes a virtual write buffer from a stralloc. The buffer writing functions will append data
to the stralloc until the stralloc fails to allocate more memory. You still need to flush the buffer.
Note that in the end the stralloc will have allocated more memory than is needed to hold the actual
contents. The waste is 1024 bytes.
Name
buffer_tosa - initialize buffer for writing to stralloc
Return Value
buffer_tosa returns 0 if everything was fine, -1 if it failed to allocate space for the initial data in
the stralloc.
