Subject: [PATCH 60/63] powerpc: Add ability to build little endian kernels
Date: Wed,  7 Aug 2013 02:02:17 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1375804940-22050-61-git-send-email-anton@samba.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1375804940-22050-1-git-send-email-anton@samba.org>

From: Ian Munsie <imunsie@au1.ibm.com>

This patch allows the kbuild system to successfully compile a kernel for
the little endian PowerPC64 architecture.

To build such a kernel a supported platform must be used and
CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN must be set. If cross compiling, CROSS_COMPILE
must point to a suitable toolchain (compiled for the powerpc64le-linux
and powerpcle-linux targets).
