/*
A general purpose lookup utility that defines a mapping between X and Y as a
continuous set of line segments with shared (x, y) end-points.
The (x, y) points must be added in order, monotonically increasing in both x and y;
a log warning is emitted if this does not happen (See general usage notes below).

A limited history of (x, y) points is kept for space reasons (See general usage notes).

In AudioFlinger, we use the LinearMap to associate track frames to
sink frames.  When we want to obtain a client track timestamp, we first
get a timestamp from the sink.  The sink timestamp's position (mPosition)
corresponds to the sink frames written. We use LinearMap to figure out which track frame
the sink frame corresponds to. This allows us to substitute a track frame for the
the sink frame (keeping the mTime identical) and return that timestamp back to the client.

The method findX() can be used to retrieve an x value from a given y value and is
used for timestamps, similarly for findY() which is provided for completeness.

We update the (track frame, sink frame) points in the LinearMap each time we write data
to the sink by the AudioFlinger PlaybackThread (MixerThread).


AudioFlinger Timestamp Notes:

1) Example: Obtaining a track timestamp during playback.  In this case, the LinearMap
looks something like this:

Track Frame    Sink Frame
(track start)
0              50000  (track starts here, the sink may already be running)
1000           51000
2000           52000

When we request a track timestamp, we call the sink getTimestamp() and get for example
mPosition = 51020.  Using the LinearMap, we find we have played to track frame 1020.
We substitute the sink mPosition of 51020 with the track position 1020,
and return that timestamp to the app.

2) Example: Obtaining a track timestamp duing pause. In this case, the LinearMap
looks something like this:

Track Frame    Sink Frame
... (some time has gone by)
15000          30000
16000          31000
17000          32000
(pause here)
(suppose we call sink getTimestamp() here and get sink mPosition = 31100; that means
        we have played to track frame 16100.  The track timestamp mPosition will
        continue to advance until the sink timestamp returns a value of mPosition
        greater than 32000, corresponding to track frame 17000 when the pause was called).
17000          33000
17000          34000
...

3) If the track underruns, it appears as if a pause was called on that track.

4) If there is an underrun in the HAL layer, then it may be possible that
the sink getTimestamp() will return a value greater than the number of frames written
(it should always be less). This should be rare, if not impossible by some
HAL implementations of the sink getTimestamp. In that case, timing is lost
and we will return the most recent track frame written.

5) When called with no points in the map, findX() returns the start value (default 0).
This is consistent with starting after a stop() or flush().

6) Resuming after Track standby will be similar to coming out of pause, as the HAL ensures
framesWritten() and getTimestamp() are contiguous for non-offloaded/direct tracks.

7) LinearMap works for different speeds and sample rates as it uses
linear interpolation. Since AudioFlinger only updates speed and sample rate
exactly at the sample points pushed into the LinearMap, the returned values
from findX() and findY() are accurate regardless of how many speed or sample
rate changes are made, so long as the coordinate looked up is within the
sample history.

General usage notes:

1) In order for the LinearMap to work reliably, you cannot look backwards more
than the size of its circular buffer history, set upon creation (typically 16).
If you look back further, the position is extrapolated either from a passed in
extrapolation parameter or from the oldest line segment.

2) Points must monotonically increase in x and y. The increment between adjacent
points cannot be greater than signed 32 bits. Wrap in the x, y coordinates are supported,
since we use differences in our computation.

3) If the frame data is discontinuous (due to stop or flush) call reset() to clear
the sample counter.

4) If (x, y) are not strictly monotonic increasing, i.e. (x2 > x1) and (y2 > y1),
then one or both of the inverses y = f(x) or x = g(y) may have multiple solutions.
In that case, the most recent solution is returned by findX() or findY().  We
do not warn if (x2 == x1) or (y2 == y1), but we do logcat warn if (x2 < x1) or
(y2 < y1).

5) Due to rounding it is possible x != findX(findY(x)) or y != findY(findX(y))
even when the inverse exists. Nevertheless, the values should be close.
