Right, you resolve the ambiguity of the wraparound because we know that logically the read_idx (which I guess is better called pop_idx) can never exceed the write_idx. It does fail if bufsize equals 2^w where w is the width of your index type, but eh, that's fair enough. You still 'waste' a slot but it's in the address space rather than physically. |
