Jose, You are right, PQ3 supports endianess choice on a per page basis.=20 Without any hook in Linux, you can remap physical address range (but = RAM), by calling __ioremap() with the "_PAGE_ENDIAN" bit set in the = flags. -- sj

This is a very nice feature when you need to exchange some data between a PC and a PQ3 target. =20 I am wondering if someone have already tryed this PQ3 feature ? I guess this would require some kind of hook in the kernel ... =20 Any clue ? =20 Thanks - Jose =20 _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-embedded mailing list Linuxppc-embedded@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-embedded =20
