General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN has multiple definitions:

Build little endian kernel found in arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig.cputype

The configuration item CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN:

• prompt: Build little endian kernel
• type: bool
• depends on: CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3S_64
• defined in arch/powerpc/platforms/Kconfig.cputype
• found in Linux kernels: 3.13–3.19, 4.0–4.20, 5.0–5.19, 6.0–6.11, 6.12-rc+HEAD

Help text

Build a little endian kernel.

Note that if cross compiling a little endian kernel, CROSS_COMPILE must point to a toolchain capable of targeting little endian powerpc.

Build little-endian kernel found in arch/arm64/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN:

• prompt: Build little-endian kernel
• type: bool
• depends on: (none)
• defined in arch/arm64/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 5.5–5.19, 6.0–6.11, 6.12-rc+HEAD

Help text

Say Y if you plan on running a kernel with a little-endian userspace. This is usually the case for distributions targeting arm64.

Built little-endian kernel found in arch/arm/mm/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN:

• prompt: Built little-endian kernel
• type: bool
• depends on: (none)
• defined in arch/arm/mm/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 5.19, 6.0–6.11, 6.12-rc+HEAD

Help text

Say Y if you plan on running a kernel in little-endian mode. This is the default and is used in practically all modern user space builds.

Some MIPS machines can be configured for either little or big endian byte order. These modes require different kernels. Say Y if your machine is little endian, N if it's a big endian machine.
