This PBL is a ROM executing before the EDK2 code?

I'm still not following.

We've set up this elaborate Rube Goldberg machine to be able to *not*
have to carry separate header files for devices with individual
components with registers that may be big- or little-endian depending
on which SoC/version they are in.

And now we have an implementation that states that its DcfgRead
operations need to happan as big-endian. And the *only* time the Dcfg
registers are accessed, we immediately need to change the header file
to treat it as little-endian?

What is the situation where Dcfg accesses *need* to be big-endian?

Leif
