Pool

Pool blocks are used to introduce packets to the stream and track packets available for reuse. All streams must have at least one pool attached to the producer block. If a stream contains memory boundaries, then additional pools are needed for each section of the stream that uses its own set of packets, attached to the IPC block. For each pool block, there is an application component responsible for deciding the packet layout based on the requirements and allocating the buffers.

NvSciStream supports two kinds of pools: static and dynamic.
