In contrast, the DMA based accessor apparently has no byte swap, so most likely one of the two is broken on big-endian systems. My guess is that the look above is wrong, and you need to use iowrite32_rep() instead, so you always write into the FIFO in the byte stream order (first byte to last byte) rather than swapping 32-bit entities. The other suspicious part is this: + reg_val |= (chip_config->tx_endian << SPI_CMD_TX_ENDIAN_OFFSET); + reg_val |= (chip_config->rx_endian << SPI_CMD_RX_ENDIAN_OFFSET); It's not clear what the tx_endian/rx_endian bits refer to and why you can't just always set the register interface to little-endian. If it's set to big-endian, you probably need to add more byte swaps in the driver.
