Specifying endianness in Cross-Compiling PHP

[Naga Kiran K <k.nagakiran@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

We are cross-compiling PHP for PowerPC,Octeon platforms from FreeBSD machine.

As we need to specify that PowerPC,Octeon platforms are "big-endian" during cross-compilaintion.

Please suggest the best location to specify this endianness during compilation phase. 

Thanks,
Naga Kiran

Hi Rasmus,

Thanks for reply.
The requirement I was looking for is to read/write given only the file descriptor number.

PHP-CGI binary is invoked by a webserver that runs in jail-directory and doesn't have access to the file path directory.
So, it communicates with another daemon that opens a socket to that file and in turn passes the file descriptor alone.

Can you please suggest if there is any API in PHP that serves this requirement [read/write to given file descriptor]
Please let me know if I need to provide more information.

Thanks,
Naga Kiran

PHP has never had an fdopen() function.  It must be something in user
space that provided that for you if you had it.
