No problem, thank you.

I remember seeing a similar error in test_ring_st_peek_stress_zc.c.
In the file test_ring_mt_peek_stress_zc.c, after the call to enqueue/dequeue API calls, we have:
"n = (m == n) ? n : 0;"

This is present as the code was copied from existing code. I do not see why this line is required. Can you please try to remove this line and see if it works?
