This mirrors what I noted to you on IRC.

Can you document what ret == 1 actually is?
AudioConverterFillComplexBuffer documentation says it returns
OSStatus, but with a quick look I can't see any AudioToolbox related
errors in f.ex.
https://www.osstatus.com/search/results?platform=all&framework=all&search=1
.

If it is just equivalent of EAGAIN, then since there is no need to
check for got_packet_ptr ?

In any case, with errors or special cases early exit should always be
preferred. See an example @
https://github.com/jeeb/ffmpeg/commits/audiotoolboxenc_return_codes .
(this was originally quickly whipped up before I saw your patch, and
thus does not take care of the EAGAIN case).
