KDATA_MEAN_ALLOC(3) Library Functions Manual KDATA_MEAN_ALLOC(3) NAME kdata_mean_alloc -- allocate mean data for plotting LIBRARY library "libkplot" SYNOPSIS #include <cairo.h> #include <kplot.h> struct kdata * kdata_mean_alloc(struct kdata *source); DESCRIPTION The kdata_mean_alloc creates a reference-counted data sources for kplot(3). It attaches to zero or more existing data sources and, when they update their values per-index, tracks the mean of the sequence of updated values. Thus, if a mean data source is attached to two sources, its y-value for pair zero will reflect the mean of all values set to pair zero's y-value in the sources. Note that the indexing is absolute: if attached to a bucket or histogram, pair index zero refers to the first internal data storage, not storage mapped from the bucket or histogram. If source is not NULL, the internal buffer is initialised to the size of the source and all of its x values. The mean is initialised to zero with zero updates. Otherwise, the internal buffer is sized to zero. Further data sources may be attached with kdata_mean_attach(3). RETURN VALUES kdata_mean_alloc returns NULL if memory allocation failed.

CAVEATS The per-bucket mean value can process a maximum number of SIZE_MAX up- dates. FreeBSD ports 15.quarterly January 16, 2015 KDATA_MEAN_ALLOC(3)
