Description
Expected Behaviour
Data transfer should be successful
Actual Behaviour
Data transfer fails with 512 error and timeout is reported in log
Steps to Reproduce
Build and install the driver from https://github.com/Xilinx/dma_ip_drivers (current master/a7219ec)
Run the following script
def test():
with open("/dev/xdma0_c2h_0", "rb") as xdma:
data = xdma.read(4)
print(data.hex())
if __name__ == '__main__':
test()
Log is available here: log.txt
Notes
Works as expected on Windows 10
Linux version 2020.1 (a1d510f4eac17b9f293e0cabcfbf4f3fdb558e50) works as expected but no updated versions work.

Research direction
Start by running the provided Python reproducer against the XDMA driver on Ubuntu 22.04 with kernel 5.15, then read log.txt and compare the behavior with version 2020.1 and the current master commit. Done means the 4-byte read from /dev/xdma0_c2h_0 completes successfully without the 512 error or timeout.
