MULTI PROCESSOR BRIDGE WITH MIXED ENDIAN MODE SUPPORT

An asynchronous dual domain bridge is implemented between the cache coherent master and the coherent system interconnect. The bridge has 2 halves, one in each clock/powerdown domain—master and interconnect. The asynchronous bridge is aware of the endian view used by each individual processor within the attached subsystem, and can perform the appropriate endian conversion on each processor's transactions to adapt the transaction to/from the endian view used by the interconnect.
