Dear Hans Petter Selasky I understood your points. Thank you for your kind explanation I found that the buffer size is 65535 like below source code. The 65535 is not the power of two. So it can still be a problem. ... #define RX_BUFFER_SIZE 65535 ... rxbuf = vmalloc(RX_BUFFER_SIZE); ... dvb_ringbuffer_init(&ca->slot_info[slot].rx_buffer, rxbuf, RX_BUFFER_SIZE); } ... 2022년 9월 12일 (월) 오후 9:36, Hans Petter Selasky <hps@xxxxxxxxxxx>님이 작성: > > Hi Mauro and YongSu, > > Answering my own question: The reason nobody has triggered this yet, is > because the buffer size used is power of two.
