MV64360 Endian Issues

4. The interrupting device is addressed from the MV64360 I2C
Bus.
5. The mapping of VMEbus interrupt sources and Tsi148
internal interrupt sources are programmable via the Interrupt
Map Registers 1 and 2 in the Tsi148 ASIC.
6. The DS1621 Digital Thermometer and Thermostat provides
9-bit temperature readings which indicate the temperature of
the device. The thermal alarm output, TOUT, is active when
the temperature of the device exceeds a user defined
temperature TH.
7. GPP[1,4,30,31] are unused. They are resistively pulled high
onboard.
The MV64360 supports only a big endian CPU bus. The endianess of the
local memory (DDR and SRAM) is also big endian. Data transferred
to/from the local memory is never swapped. The internal registers of the
MV64360 are always programed in little endian. On a CPU access to the
internal registers, data is byte swapped.
Data swapping on a CPU access to the PCI is controlled via PCI Swap bits
of each PCI Low Address register. This configurable setting allows a CPU
access to PCI agents with a different endianess convention.
Refer to the MV64360 Data Sheet, listed in
Documentation, for additional information and programming details.
