12.7 Data Rate Control
System Interface Endianness
The endianness of the System interface is programmed at boot time through the boot-time mode control interface, and remains fixed until the next time the processor mode bits are read. Software cannot change the endianness of the System interface and the external system; software can set the reverse endian bit to reverse the interpretation of endianness inside the processor, but the endianness of the System interface remains unchanged.
