Figure A-3. PPC-LE Mode Mechanisms
For PPC-LE mode, MSR[LE] and MSR[ILE] should be set. When the MSR[LE] is set, the
effective address is modiÞed (munged) by the core before being used to access the caches
(or memory for caching-inhibited accesses). The three low-order address bits of the
effective address are exclusive-ORed (XOR) with a three-bit value that depends on the
length of the operand (1, 2, or 4 bytes), as shown in Table A-6. This process is called Ô3-bit
munging.Õ
The munged physical address is passed to the cache or to external memory, and the
speciÞed width of data is transferred (in big-endian orderÑthat is, MSB at the lowest
address, LSB at the highest address). In PPC-LE mode, only the address is modiÞed, not
the byte order. Munging makes it appear to the core that individual aligned scalars are
stored in little-endian order, when in fact, they are stored in big-endian order, but at
