Type: bool

Help

This option tells the build system that the target system is big-endian. Little-endian architecture is the default and should leave this option unselected. This option is selected by arch/$ARCH/Kconfig, soc//Kconfig, or boards//Kconfig and the user should generally avoid modifying it. The option is used to select linker script OUTPUT_FORMAT and command line option for gen_isr_tables.py.

Defaults

No defaults. Implicitly defaults to n.
