Hi Daniel, I know you only did a small change to support big/little endian reference outputs, but maybe you can help me. I'm running the test-suite on AArch64 and it's correctly detecting little-endian, even setting the ENDIAN=little on configure and Makefiles alike, but it still generates "big-endian" from Makefile.programs. Here's the first lines of: sandbox/test-...$

Hi, I'd like to use LLVM to compile and optimise code when I don't know whether the target CPU is big- or little-endian. This would allow me to create a single optimised LLVM bitcode binary of an application, and then run it through a JIT compiler on systems of differening endianness. I realise that in general the LLVM IR depends on various characteristics of the target; I'd just

Hi, all, I have a question about encoding/decoding in big/little endian machines. I have a client running in an old PowerBook G4 with big-endian CPU, the audio stream is encoded then transmitted to a Mac Mini with little-endian CPU, and decoded in this Mac Mini. I am wondering the decoded stream is in big-endian or little-endian? What kind of necessary steps I need to process when I build the

Thanks for the answer. So data are stored in little-endian format on the WAVE file. But have I to encode in big endian format or little endian is ok?!

Hi, all As I'm a Chinese, be patient of my poor description below. I compiled libgcc into llvm bitcode in both big endian and little endian. and got 2 different version of function: _ashldi3, the following is the fragment of this function: little endian: ============================================= ...... target datalayout =

Well, maybe they where *intended* to be little endian at some point in the past. The actual code

Hello, Sam I used non-arm backend, and I used a target which likes mips has both big and little endianness. And I have ported llvm-gcc to this platform along with llvm backend. The issue is about IR endianness and how backend deal with the data and instructions in different endian, since I discovered 2 different IR generates the same asm code by llc for different endian target. > Message: 27

This series is a respin of the following patch: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/565921/ Patch 1 is preliminary work: it gives better names to the helpers that are involved in cross-endian support. Patch 2 is actually a v2 of the original patch. All devices now call a helper in the generic code, which DTRT according to vq->private_data, as suggested by Michael. --- Greg Kurz (2):
