All Freescale's PowerPCs and IBM's PowerPC 400 family have robust little/big endian support. IBM's high end processors, like the RS64 series and POWER processors have limited support. The only PowerPCs that can't do little endian that are currently in production are the PowerPC 970 and the Cell. All others can be either big or little endian set at boot time, or have special byte swap instructions so one could use both with little overhead at execution time. I think you'll have to consult the documentation on the target CPU to learn what the deal is for that specific PowerPC processor. |
