I just tried to use the test/dm/i2c where I am following the README but I keep getting  "sdl2-config: Command not found". I suspect it would also fail where it is trying to read but I will have to get test/dm/i2c working before I know for sure.

Also I think my i2c device needs restarts in-between each byte for it to work properly, so I need to be able to read individual bytes with there corresponding offsets, also i2c-tools supports this.

Sorry About the late reply

After changing the debug to printf and adding the msg->buf I get the following:

Hit any key to stop autoboot:  0
device # i2c dev 0
Setting bus to 0
I2C bus i2c at ffc02900 version 0x3230302a
device # i2c md 0x60 0 4
i2c_xfer: 2 messages
i2c_xfer: chip=0x60, len=0x1, buf=0x7fa2d398
i2c_xfer: chip=0x60, len=0x4, buf=0x7fa2d460
0000: 6f 6f 6f 6f    oooo

Additionally if I run my standalone application I get this 

I2C bus i2c at ffc02900 version 0x3230302a
Setting bus speed to 100000
