Orin spi transfer time longgr than expected

Hi nvidia team:
we are using SPI coummunication.
but find SPI transfer time not instability.
below I have a test on Orin devkit.and print the time.
every time send 2116 byte.and delay 10ms
in theory ,when transfer 2116 byte. time should be 1.69ms [2116(byte) x 8(bit) x1000(ms) /10000000(HZ)]

1: --timeout[0] 0 s 033 671497 ns
1 is the test count .
timeout is the longer than 10ms num.
033 671497 ns is the actual time.

I wanto ask why every transfer is not stable and have some gaps?

Hi,
Do yo use Jetpack 5.1? If you use 5.0.2, please upgrade and try again.

hi DaneLLL:
we use Jetpack 5.1.

cs low time is 1.7ms, is the actual time. the next transfer no delay in my code , but every time is not conformity.

Hi,
Do yo hit the issue in SPI1?

hi DaneLLL
what issue?

Hi,
Would like to know if you use SPI1 and observe the issue that every transfer is not stable.

hi daneLLL:
yes. use orin devkit.

Hi,
On Orin developer kit, it is SPI1 in the 40-pin expansion header and it should be /dev/spidev0.0. Looks like you are testing /dev/spidev2.0. Could you check if there is anything wrong in the setup? You can enable SPI1 through jetson-io.py for testing.

Hi DaneLLL:
sorry for later reply, the picture is err.I use /dev/spidev0.0,and take a test.when connect a monitor through pd line,the time out much less.
