Ah right - that would explain what we're seeing then... Doh. Thought I might have been onto something then. Is there any way to force a cache flush? That'd at least prove it was a caching issue if it resolved the problem.
You could enable CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE.

If the whole system is noncoherent, that is the right solution.

I meant it more as a test than a permanent solution...

If the
device is the only one, you can also use dma_alloc_noncoherent() and
flush explicitly with dma_cache_sync().

I don't see how that would help -- aren't those also controlled by CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE?
