Hi,
inline int pop_circ_queue(struct ptr_ring * buffer, struct item * item_pop)
{
if (!ptr_ring_empty_any(buffer)) // if (not empty)
{
DEBUG_MSG(KERN_INFO "Before pop, head = %u , tail =
%u\n", buffer->consumer_head, buffer->consumer_tail);
/* extract one item struct containing two unsigned
integers from the buffer */
*item_pop = *((struct item *)ptr_ring_consume_any(buffer));
DEBUG_MSG(KERN_INFO "val1 = %u , val2 = %u\n",
item_pop->val1, item_pop->val2);
DEBUG_MSG(KERN_INFO "After pop, head = %u , tail =
%u\n", buffer->consumer_head, buffer->consumer_tail);
return 0;
}
else return 1; // empty, nothing to pop from the ring
}

I will definitely just call ptr_ring_consume_any() without ptr_ring_empty_any()
Which exact line has memory leak ?
Are you referring to struct item * item_pop ?
// TX (PC receive) scatter gather buffer is read.
if (vect & (1<<((5*i)+1))) {
recv = 1;
item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer].val1 = EVENT_SG_BUF_READ;
item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer].val2 = 0;
// Keep track so the thread can handle this.
if (push_circ_queue(sc->recv[chnl]->msgs,
&item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer])) {
printk(KERN_ERR "riffa: fpga:%d chnl:%d, recv sg buf
read msg queue full\n", sc->id, chnl);
}
DEBUG_MSG(KERN_INFO "riffa: fpga:%d chnl:%d, recv sg buf
read\n", sc->id, chnl);
}
// TX (PC receive) transaction done.
if (vect & (1<<((5*i)+2))) {
recv = 1;
item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer].val1 = EVENT_TXN_DONE;
item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer].val2 = len;
// Read the transferred amount.
len = read_reg(sc, CHNL_REG(chnl, TX_TNFR_LEN_REG_OFF));
// Notify the thread.
if (push_circ_queue(sc->recv[chnl]->msgs,
&item_recv_push[sc->recv[chnl]->msgs->producer])) {
printk(KERN_ERR "riffa: fpga:%d chnl:%d, recv txn done
msg queue full\n", sc->id, chnl);
}
DEBUG_MSG(KERN_INFO "riffa: fpga:%d chnl:%d, recv txn done\n",
sc->id, chnl);
}

if I do not use ->producer in the above multiple (due to multiple if()
clause) sequential
push_circ_queue() operations, what else I can use other than
->producer to store the data
for item_recv_push ? Probably a simple integer indexing will do.

This "ptr_ring packet" drop does not make any sense to me.
