Hi Andrew, TI uses other verification boards (which have much more debug functionality than the EVMs) to test silicon features. There is also internal software designed to test all functional aspects of a module. AFAIK, these boards and software are not publicly available though. Can you try Sandeep's latest SPI patch posted to the list[1] and see if it works for you? If you provide debug information you can surely get help from this list. You could also contact your local FAE for more focused help.
