Hi all,

I am using an ARM Cortex-R4 processor that employs a Big Endian
architecture.

I see that OpenOCD supports this processor architecture by piggybacking on
the src/target/cortex_a.c module (with was originally written to provide
Cortex-A8 support).  However, I do not see any clues that Big Endian is
supported.  I employed some hacks to cortex_a8_read_phys_memory and
cortex_a8_write_phys_memory, which works for the most part, but I still
some screwiness on occasion.  Since I am not an expert on OpenOCD
internals, and especially within the cortex_a.c module, I was wondering if
someone could shed some light on what is the best way to instrument the
code to support both Big and Little Endianness.

I appreciate whatever insights anyone might have.

Thanks in advance,
Paarvai
