It is a bug fix. But the commit message is not clear. typedef struct { UINT8 Head; UINT8 Tail; UINT8 Data[RAW_FIFO_MAX_NUMBER + 1]; } RAW_DATA_FIFO; RAW_FIFO_MAX_NUMBER is 256. the data buffer size is 257 (Index from 0 to 256), but the max value of the index, Head or Tail (UINT8), is 255. That means the last data of the data buffer would be always empty if we use Head/Tail to output/input the data correctly. And because of the incorrect buffer size the FIFO full check “((Tail + 1) % (RAW_FIFO_MAX_NUMBER + 1)) == Head” would never meet.
