If a write happens during the copy, the buffer is simply discarded. But the temp buffer itself was not big enough. The allocation of the buffer was only BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE, which is the maximum data size that can be passed into the ring buffer and saved. But the temp buffer needs to hold the meta data as well. That would be BUF_PAGE_SIZE and not BUF_MAX_DATA_SIZE.
