From d25a512caf4adf2aac3ce6ac8e1f2c556c0c6c37 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Martitz Date: Wed, 29 May 2013 07:12:01 +0200 Subject: buflib: Try harder in buflib_alloc_maximum(). This function will now ask shrinkable allocations to give up all of their memory. With future support of playback.c this can be used as a safe replacement for audio_get_buffer().
