  1. This PortProtocol is valid for ports with the type ev:EventPort.
  2. The host MUST call port_event() whenever there is an event in an input port prior to the plugin instance's run() function is called, and whenever there is an event in an output port after run() has been called. The UI MUST NOT depend on the timing of the calls. However, the host MUST do the calls in the same order that the events occur in. The host is allowed and encouraged to bundle multiple events into a single port_event() call if it improves performance.
  3. The data buffer passed to port_event() is an LV2_Event_Buffer, as specified in the Event extension. The stamp_type MUST be ignored. The frames and subframes fields of every event in the buffer MUST be ignored. Events with type 0 (reference counted events) MUST be ignored.
  4. The data buffer passed to write_event() is an LV2_Event_Buffer, as specified in the Event extension. The stamp_type MUST be ignored. The frames and subframes fields of every event in the buffer MUST be ignored. The host MUST NOT pass events with type 0 (references) unless the UI supports the feature "http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/event".
  5. The host MUST pass all the events in the buffer to the plugin instance's event port in the same order, but the plugin and the UI MUST NOT depend on the timing of the events, or on whether they are all sent to the plugin in the same run() call or distributed over multiple calls.
  6. The data pointer in the LV2_Feature object for this feature should be NULL.
