The code right now execute the following step: - allocate the buffer - start a dma operation using the non-coherent dma buffer - invalidate cache lines associated with the buffer - read the buffer This can lead to reading back not valid information, because the cache controller could evict dirty cache lines belonging to the buffer *after* the DMA operation has started to fill the DRAM. In order to avoid this, a new invalidation is required *before* starting the DMA operation. The patch just adds an invalidation before submitting the DMA command. Example below shows the nvme disk scan result without the following patch => nvme scan nvme_get_info_from_identify: nn = 544502629, vwc = 100, sn = dev_0T, mn = `�\�, fr = t_part, mdts = 105 So, invalidating the cache before submitting the admin command, fix the cpu read.
