I had the same issue.
In my project i have to read 25byte frames but I set the buffer read_buf_len to 250. In my understanding it is the "physical" buffer and when you call readinto(myByff, 25) the first 25 bytes are copied from that buffer to your myBuff var. Setting read_buf_len to 250 gave me some timing-related robustness.
My frame has known start/stop bytes so i know exactly when i received a valid frame.
I initially call a method sync() that read all the byte until it finds a the start byte. Then it checks if after 25 bytes there is the end bytes. If the check is true we have the sync so the application start reading 25 bytes. if it receives a frame with the first byte different from start byte and the last byte different from the end byte it mark the frame as lost. if the number of lost frame goes above a threshold it start the sync process again.
For me this works since i can afford loosing some frames.
Please anybody feel free to correct me if I'm wrong
